What are the benefits of exercise?

Exercise offers a multitude of benefits, especially for older adults. Engaging in regular physical activity can enhance cardiovascular health, improve strength and flexibility, and increase overall energy levels.

Exercise also plays a critical role in managing weight, reducing the risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension, and improving mental health. Additionally, physical activity can enhance cognitive function and help in maintaining independence by improving balance and coordination.

How often should I exercise?

For optimal health benefits, it is recommended that older adults aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week, or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise. This can be broken down into shorter sessions throughout the week.
