Sarah, a retired accountant, is at home, comfortably settled in her reading nook with a cup of herbal tea. Her computer is open before her, displaying a health blog focused on senior fitness. She's reading an article about the importance of exercise for seniors. The article highlights various concerns that she's been thinking about lately, such as maintaining bone health and improving overall mobility.

As she scrolls through the article, Sarah can't help but think about how she's feeling sluggish lately. Her energy levels have dipped, and she's keen to make lifestyle changes to allow her to live her retirement years to the fullest. She wonders, "What if there was a way to incorporate simple, tailored exercises into my daily routine? What would be the most effective yet gentle approach?"
