EXERCISE FOR SENIORS

Being old does not prevent you from being active. An active lifestyle can make you feel young and also keeps you healthy. Exercise will help you be fit and at the same time it is a pastime. For the old ones walking, biking, stretching and balance exercises will do. It is still safe to exercise even if you are 65 years old and above or you have heart problems etc. just do some exercises which you think you can tolerate but it is still better if you consult a doctor for a exercise program for you. When starting up you should first warm up so that your muscles won’t be strained. If during the activity you have chest pain, difficulty of breathing, dizziness, nausea then you should stop and call your doctor.
