Why is staying active important?
According to the National Health Service, “Adults aged 65 and over should aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity activity a week or 75 minutes of vigorous intensity activity if you are already active, or a combination of both.” Regular exercise is one of the best ways to maintain strength, flexibility, and balance, which are key factors in staying independent as you age.
How can exercise benefit you?
Maintaining muscle mass makes everyday mobility and activities easier.
Improved balance and coordination will reduce your risk of falls and injury.
Boosts cardiovascular health by strengthening the heart and improving circulation.
Maintaining bone density will help lower the risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
Supports your mental health by reducing stress, improving mood, and promoting cognitive function.
Increases your energy and stamina so you can be active for longer periods of time.
Whether your goals include improving balance, maintaining strength, boosting mobility, or simply staying connected with a positive community, we’re here to help you get there.
