Old people are suitable for slow motion and light exercise. Old people are more suitable for slow motion or some light physical activities, such as walking, tai chi, square dance, etc., which meet the needs of the elderly.

Therefore, for the elderly, gyms are not suitable for strenuous exercise, and parks are their real needs. For big cities, the best treatment for the elderly is to build more parks. And get some basic auxiliary sports equipment in the park, so that the elderly can move their hands and feet and twist their waist, so that they can get social happiness in the process of slow exercise.
