Why MOVEability? Benefits of Chair Exercises and Seated Workouts

Chair exercises and seated workouts offer many benefits and are suitable for individuals of all ages and abilities. Regular chair exercises can help improve joint mobility and overall flexibility, making daily activities easier and more comfortable, while also targeting various muscle groups to build strength and endurance without the need for standing or high-impact movements.

Seated chair exercises incorporate movements that enhance balance, coordination, and posture, which can be particularly beneficial for older adults. Gentle on the joints and low-impact, seated exercises reduce the risk of injury compared to more strenuous activities, while also promoting regular physical activity and elevating the heart rate. With a focus on controlled reps and proper form while seated on the chair, our classes are designed to be accessible and inclusive, ensuring that everyone can participate regardless of age, ability, or mobility level.

What is a Seated Exercise Class?

A seated exercise class is a specially designed fitness programme that allows participants to perform a variety of exercises while seated in a chair. These classes are ideal for individuals who may have limited mobility, are recovering from an injury, or simply prefer a low-impact workout. Seated exercise classes focus on improving flexibility, strength, balance, and aerobic health, all from the comfort and stability of a seated position.

Are Seated Workouts Effective?

Seated workouts are very effective. They improve flexibility, strength, balance, and aerobic health, making daily activities easier. By reducing the risk of injury and enhancing circulation, seated exercises are a safe and beneficial option for individuals with limited mobility, seniors or those seeking a low-impact workout.
