LIFE Death due to heart disease has increased 37 percent since 1950 due to inactivity, sloth and inertia. People who do sedentary work and retired persons need regular aerobic exercise to live longer and healthier.
Aerobic exercise is a sustained effort for at least twenty minutes or more daily if possible.
If there are no serious physical restrictions, such exercise is necessary for everyone and especially Seniors. Seniors should never start an exercise program without the advise of their physician. Aerobic exercise puts life sustaining blood under pressure and circulates it to all the body organs and vital tissues to renew and sustain the cells therein. Muscles, cartilage and bones are vitalized. A good functioning body results with feelings of well being, ambition and lack of stress.
