[quote=Anonymous]Hello everyone. My mother is in her mid-70's and I can see a visible decline in her strength and balance. I'm concerned for her long term health. She takes walks most days for about 30 mins but does not break a sweat (she does if it is hot out but not from actually working out). The reason for my concern is that I've seen her fall on sand at the beach (granted sand is more difficult to walk on) and she has trouble getting up when lying down (weak core). She is open to doing some strength training exercises and wanted to see if there is a simple program that she can start with to build core strength and improve her balance. She is very self conscious about going to a gym so exercises that she can do at home would be ideal. Anyone been there, done that? Open to any and all suggestions, including getting a personal trainer. I want to get her to a place where she feels strong and fit. Thank you! [/quote]
