Pinkie Roshan Shows Safe Strength Training Can Continue at 71
Pinkie Roshan is 71 years old and recently shared a video of herself doing deadlifts.
She called them “pure and powerful deadlifts.”
Deadlifts are a type of strength exercise.
They use several parts of the body at the same time.
These include the hips, thighs, back and stomach muscles.
People use these muscles when lifting things or climbing stairs.
They also help people stand up from a chair.
Dr Gazanfar Patel said getting older does not automatically mean stopping strength training.
Keeping these muscles strong can help older adults stay mobile and independent.
