Chair Workout for Seniors | Resistance Band Exercises to Strengthen Knees

Are you struggling with weak knees? We understand the importance of maintaining strong and supportive joints, especially as we age. That's why we're excited to share this resistance band workout, focusing on enhancing knee strength and stability.



This session comprises five simple yet effective exercises to help improve your joint health and overall mobility.


  1. Slow Marching

  2. Leg Extension 

  3. Hamstring Curl

  4. Side Step

  5. Heel Raise


To maximize the benefits, we recommend aiming for 2 to 3 sets of these knee-strengthening exercises at least twice a week, allowing for at least a day of rest between sessions. It's crucial to listen to your body, so if you experience any soreness, give yourself ample time to rest and recover before resuming your workouts.


While these exercises can be performed without any equipment, using resistance bands can add an extra challenge, effectively targeting and engaging your muscles for greater strength and endurance. If you're interested in incorporating resistance bands into your routine, here are a few suggestions to get you started:


Mini loop resistance bands

Strappy Bands

Tube Bands with handles


Remember, consistency is key when it comes to reaping the benefits of exercise. Don't let weak knees hold you back – empower yourself with this workout and take proactive steps towards better joint health.
