💥Surgeon REVEALS: 5 Chair Exercises That Build Strong Legs Better Than Squats after 60. These chair exercises for seniors build leg strength safely, reduce knee pain, and protect aging joints better than squats. Most people over 60 were told squats are the key to strong legs. Chair squats. Deep squats. Push through the pain. That advice works for younger bodies — but for aging joints, it often does more harm than good. Orthopedic surgeons see it every day: seniors doing squats faithfully while knee pain, hip strain, and back issues worsen… and leg strength still declines. The problem isn’t effort. The problem is how squats load aging joints harder than aging muscles can safely handle. According to the National Institutes of Health, muscle loss after 60 accelerates due to sarcopenia, reducing the body’s ability to absorb force. When that happens, traditional squats push stress into the knees and hips instead of building strength. That’s why many surgeons now move patients away from squats. In fact, a 2023 study from the University of Missouri found that adults over 60 who performed controlled chair-based resistance exercises improved functional leg strength more than those performing traditional lower-body movements — with better results in standing, stair climbing, and mobility. In this video, you’ll discover: ✅ Why squats often fail after 60 ✅ The safest way to rebuild leg strength without knee pain ✅ How chair exercises protect joints while activating muscle ✅ The ONE chair exercise surgeons trust most for independence ✅ How to strengthen legs even if balance is limited These movements are simple, joint-friendly, and designed specifically for senior bodies. ⌛ TIMESTAMPS (KEEP EXACT) 0:00 Introduction 1:37 Exercise #5 – Seated Hamstring Curls 4:26 Exercise #4 – Seated Knee Extensions 7:17 Exercise #3 – Heel-Toe Rocking 10:03 Exercise #2 – Seated Hip Abduction 12:13 Exercise #1 – Sit-to-Stand (Surgeon-Preferred Alternative to Squats) 📚 SCIENTIFIC SOURCES Fragala, M.
