Want better balance, less stiffness, and more confidence in your daily movements? Start with your hips!
Here I’m showing two simple (but powerful!) standing exercises: hip openers and side leg lifts—perfect for building strength and mobility right where you need it most. Do these holding onto a chair. Start with 8 reps each. Why focus on hip mobility as we age?🔸Improves balance and reduces fall risk 🔸Makes walking, climbing stairs, and getting in/out of chairs easier🔸Reduces stiffness and supports joint health🔸Helps protect your lower back and knees🔸Keeps you moving with confidence and independence.
Motion is lotion for the joints. Just a few minutes a day of exercise can make a BIG difference! Join my online classes for guided, supportive workouts designed for older adults! Link is in my bio.

I am excited to let you know about our upcoming Halloween themed exercise classes! They will be held during our usual Wellness in Motion and Chair Fit live online classes on Saturday, October 25, which are sponsored by the Blue Cross NC Raleigh Center.

🎃Wellness in Motion, Saturdays at 9:00 a.m. Eastern
🎃Chair Fit, Saturdays at 10:00 a.m. Eastern

When you’re at the grocery store, pick up a small pumpkin (2-3 lbs., “pie pumpkin” size – like what I’m holding in the photo), which we’ll use as a weight. If you don’t have one, you can hold a dumbbell instead, or can do it without a weight.

To make the class even more fun, feel free to wear a costume or your favorite Fall fashion.

If you would like to join our free classes you can register here: https://michellerogers.fitness/class
(If you are already a member of our Wellness in Motion or Chair Fit classes, you don't need to register separately for this — you’re in!).

Happy Fall, y'all!
