Muscle responds to training at any age. You do not need a gym to start, only a chair, a wall and a little patience.
A first home programme
- Sit to stand from a chair, three sets of eight
- Wall push-ups, three sets of ten
- Calf raises holding a counter, three sets of twelve
- Side-lying leg lifts, two sets of ten each side
Train two to three times a week. When the last two reps of a set feel easy, make it a little harder: slower, deeper, or with a light weight.
