Jungnang-gu Produces Indoor Exercise Video for Seniors

Indoor Exercise Video for Frail Elderly Self-Produced and Shared via Official YouTube Channel... Easy to Follow with One Click from the 25th, Movements Accessible Anywhere Garner Attention

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Jungnang-gu (Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi) has prepared a special program for the health of the elderly in the area.

The district will officially operate a non-face-to-face exercise program starting on the 25th that protects the health of the elderly and prevents COVID-19 infection.

Due to COVID-19, the district has produced its own exercise videos that elderly people, who find it difficult to go to exercise locations or exercise outdoors, can easily follow at home without overexertion.

In particular, the exercise movements consist of joint-friendly actions such as door handle turning and pelvic tapping, designed to relieve musculoskeletal pain in old age, encouraging many elderly participants.

The videos will be shared through the official Jungnang-gu Office YouTube channel and are open to everyone.

Additionally, the district plans to actively utilize the exercise videos produced this time in the daily lives of residents. The videos will be integrated into various exercise programs at 16 community service centers and welfare centers within Jungnang-gu, helping people exercise efficiently anytime and anywhere.

Moreover, the sharing of various comments among participants of the exercise videos is expected to enhance the vitality and effectiveness of the exercise.

Ryu Kyung-gi, Mayor of Jungnang-gu, stated, “When the elderly reduce their physical activity, their immunity decreases, increasing the risk of exposure to diseases,” and added, “We hope that this indoor exercise program will greatly help protect the health of the elderly.”
