Domenic Angelino Recommends 4 Standing Exercises to Trim Love Handles After 60

Summary
Four standing moves—high knee march, cross-arm toe touch, jog in place and goblet squat—are Angelino’s picks for reducing love handles in adults over 60.
Angelino says love handles respond best to exercises that burn calories quickly, arguing standing core work is easier to perform and better for fat loss than muscle-focused gym sessions.
High knee marches and jogging in place emphasize calorie burn while engaging the core, with the march adding a larger range of motion and the jog allowing more sustained steps before fatigue.
Cross-arm toe touches add flexibility and functional core strength, while goblet squats use a dumbbell or even a water bottle to build lower-back and core stability as strength improves.
The advice targets age-related fat gain around the hips and lower abdomen, which Angelino links to lower activity, hormonal changes and slower metabolism.
