What are the best cardio workouts for older people to do at home?
Hello Zhada Eaves,
There is no reason older adults can’t do anything they enjoy; as long as they are cleared by the physician and have no contraindications. If you have any doubts, getting a doctor clearance would decide if and what restrictions are in order.
I agree with Christine that each client is an individual in which age is not the only predictor of how to design exercise programs.
The best cardio for older people at home is what they enjoy, can do safely, and is approved by both doctor and trainer. Then let the client try different activities to see what helps the knees. How about finding a trainer near her to do a personal assessment, that would be the best way to handle this.
Thank you,
