How do the elderly exercise their legs?
1. 1. During dry cleaning, hold one thigh tightly with both hands, and massage it down from the thigh to the ankle with a little force, then massage it from the ankle to the root of the thigh, and massage the other leg the same way. Repeat 10 ~ 20 times. This can make joints flexible, enhance leg muscles and walking ability, and prevent varicose veins, edema and muscle atrophy of lower limbs.

1.2, rub the calf with two palms, and rotate the friction, rubbing 20 ~ 30 times on each side as one section, a total of 6 sections. This method can dredge blood vessels and enhance leg strength.

1.3. Hold the wall or the tree with one hand and swing the calf. Swing the calf forward first, so that the toes tilt forward and upward, and then swing backward, 80 ~ 100 times each time. This method can prevent lower limb atrophy, weakness or numbness, leg cramps and other symptoms.

1.4. Bend your knees and feet parallel and close together, with your knees slightly bent, put your hands on your knees, knead them clockwise for dozens of times, and then counterclockwise for dozens of times.

1.5, pull your toes up, straighten your legs, bow your head, bend your body forward, and pull your toes 20 ~ 30 times by hand. This method can strengthen the waist and legs and increase the strength of the feet.

1.6, foot warming is to keep your feet warm all the time. Soaking feet with hot water every night can make the whole body circulate.
