LESSON 02 / 10 · Strength & recovery

Look at your current week

Physical activity guidance for older adults includes aerobic, strengthening and balance activities. Your starting point and capabilities matter when deciding what is appropriate.

Your practical action

Sketch your current week without adding anything yet. Mark the activities you already do and questions about what might be suitable next. Use that note for a conversation with a qualified exercise or healthcare professional if needed.

Choose what fits your circumstances. No purchase required.

An everyday example

Mark existing commitments on a weekly calendar, then note the activities you already do. Use this as a discussion aid if you need help choosing suitable activity.

Pause and reflect
