“It is our duty…to resist old age, to compensate for its defects, to fight against it as we would fight a disease; adopt a regimen of health; practice moderate exercise; and to take just enough food and drink to restore our strength.” – Cicero, 44 BC
So, as we age, it seems to get harder and harder for us to exercise, and it is even more and more important to keep moving.
There are several programs out there that specialize in programs for older adults. These programs allow you to join in exercise with no or little cost to you.
