A Tip from Interim
Fire Chief Brad Martin
Exercise and physical activity are good for just about
everyone, including older adults. No matter your health and
physical abilities, you can gain a lot by staying active. In fact,
in most cases you have more to lose by not being active.
Here are just a few of the benefits of exercise and physical
activity:
• Maintenance and improvement of physical strength and
fitness.
• Better ability to do the everyday things you want to do.
• Improvement of balance.
• Disease management for diabetes, heart disease and
osteoporosis.
• Reduction of feelings of depression; mood
improvement.
• Better ability to shift quickly between tasks, plan an
activity and ignore irrelevant information.
The key word in all these benefits is you—how fit and
active you are now and how much effort you put into
being active. To gain the most benefits, enjoy all four
types of exercise: endurance, strength, balance and flexibility.
Stay safe while you exercise and be sure to eat a
healthy diet too!
