On Wednesday, June 15^{th<\/sup>, our Members will be walking, walker-ing and rolling around our custom track during our mini Relay for Life 2016 to benefit the American Cancer Society. Although the relay will benefit ACS, the act of walking \u2013 or getting any kind of exercise – will benefit everyone who does it!<\/p>\n}

At any age, exercise is important part of a healthy life. But it is even more important as adults get older. Even with all of the studies showing that consistent physical activity \u00a0is proven to enhance longevity and the quality of life for people of all ages, over 85% of adults are either not regularly active or not active at all!<\/p>\n

Exercise can help prevent heart disease and osteoporosis, among others. According to research from the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, physical activity, including exercise, can slow the changes in the brain associated with Alzheimer\u2019s disease. Those adults in who exercised 5 times a week did better on cognitive tests and had less age-related changes to the brain that are associated with Alzheimer\u2019s.<\/p>\n

Below are 4 types of exercise that can help prevent a variety of age-related health issues.*<\/p>\n

\n
1. Cardio<\/strong> \u2013 this includes activities like walking, swimming, biking, or just doing housework. Any activity that increases your heart rate for an extended period of time can improve your heart health and help you lose weight by increasing your metabolism.<\/li>\n
2. Strength<\/strong> \u2013 build muscle and increase your metabolism by lifting light weights.<\/li>\n
3. Balance<\/strong> \u2013 can help prevent falls and other accidents by building leg muscles and making older adults more stable on their feet.<\/li>\n
4. Stretching<\/strong> \u2013stretching allows you to increase your flexibility and improve your freedom of movement. This will help you stay more independent in your senior years.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

   (*Remember, you should always talk with your physician before starting any exercise regimen.)<\/p>\n

   You can\u2019t control your age, but you can control how well you age. Start exercising now so you can age gracefully!<\/p>\n

   At NSC, physical activity isn\u2019t just important this one day a year; it is important every day! Whether our Members walk around our track just to take a stroll or for our Relay for Life 2016 event, hop on the stationary bike, use the weights or participate in one of our other activities, we make sure they keep their bodies in motion. We also work on their minds and spirits through socializing, harmonizing, improvising, and just plain having fun!<\/p>\n
