Exercise: Key to Aging Well

Myth vs Fact Many people believe that as we get older, we should slow down or avoid exercise

because it might be dangerous — but the truth is the opposite. Movement is medicine.

Even light activity improves circulation, strengthens your heart, boosts mobility,

prevents falls, and supports mental clarity. Studies show adults who stay active

experience less pain, more energy, and a better quality of life than those

who remain inactive. And you don’t have to lift heavy weights or run a marathon — simple daily habits

like walking, stretching, or gentle strength training make a big difference.

Myth: “Exercise becomes risky.” Fact: “Exercise keeps you strong, steady & independent.”
