In this video Stuart, an accredited Exercise Physiologist, demonstrates different strength, mobility and balance movements that you can use to make up your own routine at home. Use the steps below to plan your routine:
1. For the strength exercises, choose the variation that is most appropriate.
2. Try to complete 3 sets of 10 repetitions for each movement.
3. Have enough rest between each set that you feel confident you can complete another lot of 10.
4. For the mobility and balance movements, do each movement one after the other for 10-15 repetitions each, and then repeat.
