5 ways to age like a legend, not a statistic
You’re not too old. You’re just too overlooked.
Most health advice for seniors is either boring, fear-based, or built for people who already run 5Ks. Let’s fix that. 🛠️🧓🏽
If you want to move better, feel stronger, and actually enjoy your body past 60 — here’s where to start.
1️⃣ Muscle Loss Isn’t “Inevitable” — It’s Fixable
After 60, you naturally lose more muscle each year — but “natural” doesn’t mean unavoidable.
Strength training (even bodyweight or resistance bands) can reverse that trend. 🏋🏽♀️🧬
2️⃣ Balance Is the New Flex
Mobility and stability keep you independent — not just strong.
Try one-leg stands while brushing your teeth. Add gentle yoga or Tai Chi to your week. 🧘🏾♂️🦶🏽
3️⃣ Protein, Not Just Plants
You need more protein now than ever before — to protect bones, rebuild tissue, and keep metabolism running.
Add a scoop to your smoothie. Eat the eggs. Yes, even at night. 🥚🍗
4️⃣ You Can’t Fix What You Don’t Track
Not to obsess — but noticing matters.
Track your water. Count your steps. Check in with how your joints feel in the morning. 📊🦴
5️⃣ Fun Is Still a Fitness Strategy
Dancing in your living room? Gardening? A walk with a playlist you love?
It all counts. If you like it, you’ll keep doing it — and that’s what works. 🎶🌼💃🏽
