Health Benefits

"...there is a substantial body of scientific evidence which indicates that regular physical activity can bring dramatic health benefits to people of all ages and abilities, and that this benefit extends over the entire life-course. Increasingly, evidence indicates that physical activity offers one of the greatest opportunities to extend years of active independent life, reduce disability, and improve the quality of life for older persons."

- Excerpt from The National Blueprint: Increasing Physical Activity Among Adults Aged 50 and Older
