🌟 Moving Your Way to Healthy Aging! 🌟
Did you know staying active as you age can help prevent social isolation, falls, depression, and chronic diseases? Movement truly is life!
Older adults who keep moving enjoy benefits like:
✅ Lower blood pressure and blood sugar
✅ Reduced risk of heart disease, stroke, and some cancers
✅ Better memory and balance, helping prevent falls
And the best part? You don’t need fancy equipment or a gym membership! Simple exercises like balance training, stretching, strength exercises (push-ups against a wall or lifting weighted milk jugs!), and cardio activities (like walking or biking) can all be done at home.
Aim for 150 minutes of physical activity a week—but remember, every bit counts. Start slow, listen to your body, and always check with your doctor before beginning a new routine.
