Can you still practice yoga or exercise when you are 80 years old?
Yoga originated in India, which is a kind of fitness exercise to relax muscles, promote blood circulation, enhance strength and regulate emotions.

It has become a new fashion among young people in China, but yoga is not a patent for young people, and it is also suitable for middle-aged and elderly people. Yoga's various movements and postures have a good exercise effect on middle-aged and elderly people, such as the inflexibility of arms, legs and lumbar vertebrae and the lack of strength. Yoga not only pursues the health and harmony of the body, but also pursues the deep unity and perfection of the mind, which can also play a certain regulatory role in relieving stress and calming the mood of middle-aged and elderly people.

Various movements in yoga have an auxiliary therapeutic effect on chronic diseases of middle-aged and elderly people, such as hypertension, heart disease and weakened cardiopulmonary function. However, middle-aged and elderly people should tell their coaches what diseases they have when practicing yoga, so that exercise can effectively guide practitioners. Furthermore, don't mechanically imitate the actions of young people. Yoga movements of middle-aged and elderly people must be slow and soft, and some movements that cannot be done should not be forced.
