Transforming Your Living Room Into A Gym
Imagine your living room transformed into a gym where every square inch counts. Maximizing this area starts with understanding the space you’ve got and picking the right gear.

Hi, I think working out is super important especially as you get older. Exercise is an easy thing to put off. It takes hard work and disciple. The rewards are worth it though. Better physical and mental health. Which means being a better friend and family member to those that need you to be there for them.
Also it helps you enjoy life more when you feel good about yourself.
what advice would you give to someone that is in their 60s and interested in starting exercise.? Also, do you know of gyms give seniors discounts?

Thank you very much for your comments. To start from scratch, having done nothing at all. I suggest the normal getting up and reach for the ceiling stretch. That is the first one to do, but not stretch as far as you can on the first one. Do this about three times. Then on the fourth one, reach for the ceiling as far as you can. Then do a couple more and try to stretch on your tipped toes.
As far as gym discounts; I don’t know of any. On this site most of the content can be done at home. Walking, which I highly recommend can be done with all your activities or in a gym if that is more comfortable for you.
Again, Thanks for your comments/
