The elderly can't bear large amount of exercise due to the decline of physical function. Moderate small-scale exercise such as stretching exercise and Tai Ji Chuan can help the elderly to better protect their health. Academician Zhong Nanshan once said in another interview: "The sports suitable for middle-aged and elderly people include walking, Tai Chi, swimming, persistence, longevity and health preservation." In fact, many middle-aged and elderly people are afraid of sports injuries rather than not exercising, and they don't know what suits them. The ancients lived to ninety-nine after a meal, and taking a walk is the most suitable exercise for the elderly. Fitness walking is a common way of exercise, its speed is between walking and jogging, and its exercise intensity is low, so it is not easy to cause physical injury and sports injury to the elderly. Walking is a fitness method suitable for all ages, and it is also an easy exercise. For the elderly who are in poor health, strenuous exercise may be impossible. It's easiest to go downstairs for a walk after dinner. Walking casually in the park on the road, shaking hands and legs when walking, can also relax and achieve the purpose of exercising.

Nowadays, square dance is the most popular social activity for the elderly and mothers. Middle-aged and elderly people now like to show their elegance in square dance. With the movement of music, all cells in the body get exercise and sweat, which is very interesting after exercise. We can make new friends, make the old people love music and show their enthusiasm for life again. It can stretch and relax all aspects of the body. It is a sport that the elderly especially like now, and it is also a way to relieve stress. Women who dance are the youngest, most energetic and more elegant.

Tai Ji Chuan is grandpa's favorite sport, especially the dynamic Tai Ji Chuan, which is a kind of sport that emphasizes the combination of dynamic and static, and the transformation of reality and reality. It is a traditional fitness exercise in China, and it is also very suitable for the elderly. Although Tai Ji Chuan's movements are very slow, he can stimulate the whole body's blood circulation, increase heart function and make the heart strong. When I play Tai Ji Chuan, I will concentrate and calm down. Now life is too impetuous, anxious and often depressed. Tai Ji Chuan can increase his self-control and make his mood more stable.

Stretching exercise can help the elderly to circulate, and the elderly who metabolize waste can get up in the morning and do some simple stretching exercise, which can improve blood circulation, promote the metabolism of the body and eliminate the old waste in the body. Old people sometimes feel very tired when they get up in the morning, which is precisely because the metabolic waste in the body is not discharged in time. Although the old waste in the body will be excreted through its own circulation, the physical function of the elderly has gradually deteriorated, and the metabolism is still relatively slow. At this time, getting up in the morning and doing stretching exercise for 15 to 20 minutes will speed up this process, promote blood circulation, make the blood circulation of the whole body better, and improve the cold constitution of the elderly.

The health of the elderly has always been a concern of everyone. With the gradual growth of age and the decline of physical function, there is not much exercise suitable for the elderly, so appropriate lightweight exercise plays a decisive role in improving the health of the elderly. More need to go out and meet new friends, health is very important, and mood is also very important. Often negative emotions will affect your health.
