The common mistake of the dumbbell practice(3)

Dumbbells are not suitable for the elderly
(rubber dumbbell)There are many fitness lovers among the elderly, but they often choose jogging, radio exercises . Few people pay attention to strength training, and dumbbells are basically not considered. Most people think that when they get older, their strength decreases, so they are not suitable for strength training. This is not the case. In a sense, strength training is more needed because of the decline of strength.

Muscles produce movement and help the body maintain a state of stillness(China dumbbell). With the growth of age, the muscle fibers naturally shrink and the strength decreases, which not only slows down, but also reduces the stability. The tendon and periosteum are more prone to excessive wear, so the possibility of pain in each joint is also greatly increased. Appropriate strength exercise can not only delay the process of muscle atrophy, maintain muscle elasticity and lay the foundation for better engaging in other forms of fitness activities, but also increase the protective effect of muscles on the stability of joints, so as to reduce or alleviate all kinds of pain. Dumbbells are small and exquisite, high quality and low price. They are especially suitable for strength exercise for the elderly.
