3. Sports suitable for the elderly: running arms and fitness balls.

Old people over 80 seldom exercise regularly. If you can do some small moves in your daily life, you can also play a role in health care and physical fitness.

Sports medicine experts recommend arm running to the elderly, that is, using the exercise method of moving arms instead of running.

There are three basic movements in arm running:

1. Cyclist: Lie on your back, keep your arms straight, and do the same action as pedaling with both hands. 1~2 minutes.

2. Flying: Stand, spread your arms horizontally to both sides, and flap your arms slowly like a bird flapping its wings. 1~2 minutes.

3. Throw the ball: Throw the ball into the air and catch it. Or throw the ball to the ground and bounce off the wall to catch it. If there is no ball, you can make a simulated catch, each time 10 times, and then do it after a break 10 times.

In addition, the elderly can practice fitness balls with one hand or even both hands anytime and anywhere. Playing fitness ball for a long time can make hand joints stretch flexibly, promote the movement of upper limb muscles such as fingers, wrists and elbows, prevent and correct the numbness and trembling of upper limbs caused by degenerative diseases of the elderly, and also slow down the decline of brain function and prevent Alzheimer's disease.
