Fitness is being physically and mentally able to work through the challenges of life. We must work to get through this life and not be easier than you age. Aging is not for sissies. There are certainly a lot of challenges.

What it means to be in good physical shape is different in different stages of life. Whatever we do is obvious that decreases fitness with age. You're not so fast and lose aerobic capacity. And no matter what exercise you can not open the bottles of olive oil once I did because it decreases muscle strength. their bones are less dense and metabolism slows.The good news is that exercise can minimize Most of these losses. Nevertheless, we must work.

There are even new evidence that you're never too old to exercise. A recent Israeli study showed that people over age 70 live longer and better if they are physically active for at least four hours per week.

What has been learned from this age group was that the seniors who started physical activity among those between 70 and 78, and even between 78 and 85 have improved their chances of survival. The test results also showed that older people who exercised were more likely to maintain an independent lifestyle than those who did not exercise.
