Injury Prevention After 60: Move Safer, Stay Strong, Prevent Setbacks (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798196921902)

Injury prevention after 60 is not just about avoiding falls.

It is also about protecting your body during everyday movement - bending, lifting, reaching, carrying, twisting, stepping, gardening, cleaning, climbing stairs and getting out of chairs.

A rushed twist.
A heavy shopping bag.
A stiff shoulder reaching into a cupboard.
A knee that feels awkward on stairs.
A wrist that complains after gardening.
A back that twinges after bending badly for only a few seconds.

Small movements can cause real setbacks when the body is stiff, tired, weak or unprepared.

Injury Prevention After 60 is a simple, practical guide to helping your body move safer, stay stronger and feel better prepared for daily life.

With 48 simple exercises for everyday injury prevention, this book helps support the areas that often need the most protection after 60 - including the back, hips, knees, shoulders, ankles, wrists, hands, grip and balance.

Inside, you'll discover:

• 48 simple strength, mobility and balance exercises
• Practical guidance for safer bending, lifting, reaching, carrying and twisting
• Exercises for the back, hips, knees, shoulders, ankles, wrists, hands, grip and balance
• Balance and reaction drills to support steadier everyday movement
• 6 ready-made routines for daily protection, lower-body support, upper-body support and balance confidence
• A realistic 4-week plan to help you build gradually
• Printable companion downloads, including routine lists, a weekly tracker, safe movement checklist and joint-protection chart

This is not a high-intensity fitness book.

It is not about pushing through pain, moving faster or doing complicated workouts.

It is about building small, steady layers of strength, mobility, balance and control - so everyday tasks feel safer, easier and more manageable.

You do not need gym equipment.
You do not need to be fit before you begin.
You do not need to do all 48 exercises at once.

Start gently. Use support when needed. Build gradually.

Move safer. Stay strong. Prevent setbacks.
