Senior Exercise
“When we get residents on the HUR SmartBalance and run an assessment, many are surprised by how their balance is deteriorating. This allows us to create a program for them early, before they fall, or before their lack of balance starts to prevent them from doing what they love.” NORTH HILL USA - SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITY
Muscular strength training is essential for everyone, particularly for senior citizens, aiming to maintain mobility and independence for as long as possible. HUR enables safer exercise for older individuals by minimizing stress on joints and connective tissues. HUR's air resistance equipment is safe and easy to use, which makes it suitable for a large variety of users.
