Tap a question
Walking looks after your heart and lungs, and it counts. Strength and balance need practice of their own, which is why your week pairs two short workouts with your walks. Keep the walks going.
Then we train for stairs. Sit to stands and step-ups work the muscles that lift you up a step, so both are in your plan. Start on a low step and add height as it gets easy.
Here is one for the kitchen counter. Nothing needed but a chair.
Why it fits
Starts where you are
The questions ask about stairs, floors, balance and carrying, then the plan starts at that level.
Uses what is at home
A chair, a counter and a band are enough. Tell it your kit and it picks from that.
Your walks count
Logged walks show in your week, so the picture of what you did is whole.
Your plan starts with a few questions.
In Achilles you pick Stay capable as I age, then tell it your days, your kit and how you move today.
