**A cardiac rehab expert from the British Heart Foundation leads a gentle, joint-friendly warm‑up with seated and standing options and clear safety cues.**

## Why it's worth watching

For adults over 60, a proper warm‑up reduces injury and fall risk while preparing the heart and joints; this trusted UK resource offers accessible movements, pacing guidance and stop‑signals to help readers exercise confidently.

Embed as the go‑to warm‑up before walks, strength or class sessions; no equipment needed—choose seated if balance is an issue and follow BHF safety advice.
