Can’t find time to get your hour of exercise in anymore? Who has that kind of time? Even fitness professionals don’t have that kind of time any more!
The good news is these are the best exercises for women over 50 — and you can find time to do them… and shorter workouts can actually help balance your hormones more than longer workouts — another huge plus.
Whether you need to get in some quick interval training or you do a strength training set like this one that features major muscle groups in a short circuit, you’ll be doing a lot more good than reclining on the couch.
Choose a weight that causes you to fatigue at the end of your set. Whether that’s a weight you can lift 10 times, 15, or up to 25 times as long as you do reach fatigue you’ll be getting the following benefits:
- More lean muscle
- Less Body fat
- More bone density
- Improved posture
Choose your exercises carefully and as few as three exercises can work many major muscle groups in a very short time. Take the following for example:
- Squat: Gluteals, Hamstrings, Quadriceps
- Bent Over Row: Trapezius, Latissimus Dorsi, Biceps
- Chest Press: Pectoral muscles, Triceps
So see — you do have time to exercise during your holidays this year! These are the best exercises for you. You’ll be back to decking the halls in no time.
