Seniors can maintain an active lifestyle by doing regular exercise. Doing regular exercises has specific health benefits for seniors. Even though their bodies may be too weak to perform any exercises to maintain an active lifestyle, it is still possible if they have people around to help them.

Seniors can perform any exercise here in our adult family home in Mukilteo, Washington, but let us discuss strength training exercises and their health benefits for seniors. They can perform strength training exercises under the supervision of our staff. 
Here are some benefits of strength training for seniors:

  • Improved joint health
    Seniors are at increased risk of experiencing joint problems, such as arthritis. Thankfully, strength exercises can enhance joint flexibility and reduce stiffness. Improved joint health also reduces joint pain, which can improve and enjoy their stay in our assisted living in Mukilteo, Washington.
  • Enhanced balance and stability
    Balance and stability issues in seniors may increase their risk of experiencing falls at home or in retirement communities. Falls may result in physical disabilities and injuries. Thankfully, strength training exercises enhance the balance and stability of seniors, improving their independence in mobility and daily activities.
  • Improved muscle mass
    Strength training exercises help build muscle mass and strength for seniors. Building muscle mass preserves strength, stability, and the ability of seniors to independently finish tasks.
  • Improved cognitive function
    Strength training can improve the cognitive functions of seniors. Strength training is more beneficial for seniors under senior living in Everett, Washington. Seniors can prevent loneliness and other mental issues associated with isolation.
