The Exercise That Everyone Should be Doing at 70 Onwards, if not Before”

The exercise that everyone should be doing at 70 onwards, if not before...

My granda jack was always a fit man. He played cricket, loved fell walking, and spent hours in the garden. But at the age of 80, he fell—and couldn’t get back up.


Now his son Robert, my dad,  is 72.  He’s incredibly active: cycling every day, hiking the fells, stretching regularly. But even with all that, he recently admitted “I worry that what happened to my dad will happen to me.”

So, I introduced him to ONE move. 

He started with the easier version, worked at it daily, and eventually progressed to the full version. ( I show both on the video) 

Now, every single day he does at least ten  or 20 if he has time.

It takes a few minutes.  He does it while listening to bbc sports. 

As we age, mobility, strength, and balance begin to fade—often without us even realising. Then one day, it’s not just a fall. It’s the moment we discover we can’t get ourselves back up.

This daily move  can help you or your loved ones stay strong, confident, and independent into your 80s, 90s and beyond.
