You make the older population lift weights??? Absolutely, and farmer’s carry is a top tier exercise for them to do. Why? Most elderly struggle with walking long distances, some struggle to maintain an upright posture, a lot of them lack the ability to engage their core muscles especially through range of motion, handgrip strength has declined, balance becomes a huge issue for many, as we age we lose a degree of strength and it’s vital that we protect our core strength. Overall lifting weights is something that we shouldn’t shy away from, especially as we get older. It’s crucial that we maintain our quality of life, because the last thing any of us would want is to be dependent.
