This seated exercise routine for seniors focuses on simple exercises that can help loosen up and strengthen the muscles in the neck, shoulders, back, hips, knees, and ankles. It’s a great daily routine at any age.
For this exercise routine, start off with a warmup, cervical rotation and sidebend, as well as deep breathing and seated trunk rotations to help get the muscles warm and loose.

Shoulder horizontal abduction, shoulder ER, and seated rows with a band are great for the shoulders, neck, and back area.
