Buy a worksheet with this standing exercise routine at https://www.askdoctorjo.com/purchase-the-9-standing-exercises-for-seniors-worksheet/ This standing routine is performed in real time, so it’s easy to follow along. It’s a great daily routine for seniors or for anyone looking for an easy but effective standing exercise routine. Start off this standing exercise routine with a warmup, head/neck circles, standing Ts, modified jumping jacks, and marching will get the muscles warm and loose. For the first few exercises, using a resistive band is a great way to really focus on strengthening the muscles, but if you don’t have one, you can still do the exercises either with a soup or vegetable can, or a small weight. Shoulder flexion and shoulder rows with a band are great for the shoulders, neck, and back area. Next, standing heel/toe raises do a great job of working the muscles in the legs, and they are great for balance. Finally, mini squats and mini lunges are great for the whole body.
