🦵 Can you get out of your chair at 70?

We used to think exercise = to be shapely.

Until one day I found this information and changed my perspective. 👇

The one who most accurately predicts "longevity."

Not body weight, not BMI.

But the strength of the legs. 🦵

Why the legs?

🔹 The leg is the largest muscle in the body.

But it's also the earliest bundle to deteriorate as it ages.

🔹, when the legs are not strong → sit up hard → move less → weaker

It's a cycle that's been quiet since we didn't know it.

🔹 Strong legs = good balance, hard fall, good burn, stagnant blood sugar

It's hardly a long-term health insurance in one.

So what to do? (Very easy to start)

✅ Walk up the stairs instead of the elevator.

✅ Get up and sit slowly from your chair 10-15 times a day.

✅ Squat by force. Not much, but consistent.

✅ add a little weight when ready → This is where kettlebell came in to help.

We started with one at home. No gym.

The one we used with the new weight was taped to the bio. 👀

Didn't train the legs to make the legs beautiful today

But trained for "ourselves in 30 years" to travel, carry your grandchildren, get up comfortably. 🌱

Who started training his legs? Or never started? Let's tell you in the comments. 💬

Save this post and remind yourself. 📌

... Read moreเคยสังเกตไหมว่าความสามารถในการลุกนั่งเองจากเก้าอี้ กลายเป็นตัวชี้วัดสุขภาพที่สำคัญมากเมื่ออายุมากขึ้น โดยเฉพาะเมื่อวัยใกล้ 70 ปีขึ้นไป หลายคนอาจคิดว่าการออกกำลังกายเพื่อให้หุ่นดีเท่านั้น แต่จริงๆ แล้วการเสริมสร้างความแข็งแรงของกล้ามเนื้อขากลับมีผลมากกว่าที่คิด จากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัวที่ได้ลองเริ่มฝึกซ้อมกล้ามเนื้อขาด้วยวิธีง่ายๆ เช่น เดินขึ้นบันไดแทนการใช้ลิฟต์ และ ลุก-นั่งจากเก้าอี้อย่างช้าๆ วันละ 10-15 ครั้ง พบว่าร่างกายมีความแข็งแรง ทรงตัวดีขึ้น ลดโอกาสล้มและบาดเจ็บได้มาก อีกทั้งยังรู้สึกว่าสุขภาพโดยรวมดีขึ้น ไม่เพียงแต่ขา แต่ยังช่วยควบคุมระดับน้ำตาลในเลือดให้นิ่ง ป้องกันโรคเรื้อรังได้ด้วย การฝึกสควอทก็เป็นอีกหนึ่งที่แนะนำ ไม่จำเป็นต้องทำเยอะในครั้งเดียว แค่ทำเป็นประจำก็ช่วยเพิ่มมวลกล้ามเนื้อขาได้ดี และถ้ารู้สึกมั่นใจขึ้น สามารถเพิ่มน้ำหนักด้วยอุปกรณ์ง่ายๆ อย่าง kettlebell ที่ช่วยเพิ่มประสิทธิภาพการฝึกได้มากโดยไม่ต้องไปยิม สิ่งที่สำคัญคือ สม่ำเสมอและเริ่มจากบรรยากาศที่คุณรู้สึกปลอดภัย เช่น ที่บ้านของตัวเอง นอกจากนี้การเริ่มฝึกกล้ามเนื้อขาไม่ใช่แค่สำหรับวันนี้ แต่เป็นการลงทุนเพื่อสุขภาพในอีก 30 ปีข้างหน้า เพื่อให้ยังสามารถเดินเล่น อุ้มหลาน หรือทำกิจกรรมที่ชอบได้อย่างไม่ติดขัด จึงขอเชิญชวนทุกคนที่ยังไม่เคยเริ่ม หรือเพิ่งเริ่มฝึกกล้ามเนื้อขา ให้ลองแบ่งเวลาสั้นๆ วันละไม่กี่นาที มาร่วมแชร์ประสบการณ์ในการดูแลขากันนะคะ เพราะสุขภาพแข็งแรงที่ยั่งยืนเริ่มต้นที่ความใส่ใจในตัวเองจากวันนี้ค่ะ
