Useful equipment for active seniors who love to exercise

By

Exercise is good for the body and the mind no matter what age you are. Exercise can boost your immune system, lower your risk of falling, improve your memory and cognitive function, and strengthen relationships. There are so many activities that can help you stay in tip-top shape that are easy to incorporate into your day-to-day activities. These include taking the stairs instead of the elevator, walking your dog (Fido will not mind this suggestion), parking further away from the door while running your errands, and planting flowers in your garden. In addition, it is important to set aside “me” time. Do you enjoy cycling? Perhaps yoga is more your thing. We’ve put together a list of items that will aid you on your exercise journey no matter what kind of exercise you decide is right for you. Remember to talk with your doctor before beginning any exercise routine.
