Trainer Katya Guru spoke about yoga exercises useful for the elderly. Her words are quoted by Sport-Express.

“Of the most suitable practices: cat pose (for flexibility of the spine and youthfulness of the body), half-lotus (strengthens the abdominal muscles and stretches the hips), shavasana (for relaxation),” the specialist explained. She added that you should not make movements that cause discomfort.

The trainer noted that yoga can be adapted to any age and physical condition. According to the expert, classes will help reduce pain due to arthritis and osteoporosis, improve flexibility and balance, normalize digestion, strengthen muscles, including the heart, as well as blood vessels.

Earlier, fitness trainer Ksenia Shulga named five reasons to make a vacuum. The expert said that this exercise strengthens the abdominal muscles, makes the waist thinner, improves posture and reduces the risk of back pain and injury. She added that the main advantage of vacuum is accessibility, because it does not require special equipment or space.
