Introduction

Mobility is one of the most important—and often overlooked—parts of healthy aging. While strength and endurance are important, mobility is what helps seniors move comfortably, perform daily tasks with ease, and stay independent longer. The good news? You don’t need a gym, special equipment, or long workouts to maintain it.

Just 5 to 10 minutes a day of gentle mobility exercises can reduce stiffness, support balance, and make everyday movements—like getting out of a chair, bending over, or going for a walk—much easier.

This guide walks through the best daily mobility exercises for seniors, why they’re so effective, and how to practice them safely.
