Walking for weight loss and longer life
What do we need for an active old age? Chance to start, it helps to have parents who were fit and lived long. But we have our chance when we are talking about. 100 years ago tennis for two hours, a nap and fitness. Marton Buster, at 101 the oldest man running the London Marathon, finished a respectable 10 hours. It can be done.Of course, arthritis is not the elbows forehand to help smash the dodgy knees and you slow a bit in a marathon. But much of what is the mind.
It is slow as we age. Elderly Labrador drowsiness on the porch has perfected the art of it is still a movement of the tail. He knows his limits and sticks to them.
But he probably chased a ball as long as he could, and we must do even in our own way.
Tell you to go out and get in shape. This is the only way to an active old age and a longer life. Want to do. Imagine the pain they minor issues and work around them.
Obesity and the problems that the real killer, smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. A walking program for fitness and a regular diet to ensure that the excess weight.
We must be alert to the mental effort to stay in shape to be. This, according to the University of California in San Francisco, can be achieved through practice. We have a situation where we have mentally alert enough to want to exercise. But what we are interested in the results and long-term mental and physical condition will have an advantage that we all want.
In a sample of 2000 men and women in the 70 and 80 researchers found that people with moderate or vigorous exercise at least once per week were 30% more likely to mentally alert than those who did not.
Vigilance is not only depending on the year .. Well-educated was 3 times more likely to their mental capabilities
High levels of literacy have been associated with five times more likely to later strengthening mental decline. Even if you miss a good education, you can always read books and see daily.
Pets add years to your life as a result of reduced levels of stress. I suspect that the level of reduction depends on the animal. A dog can be your life by doing your exercises in the whole time and then you have excess stress barking. Can a cat purring soothe you in the front of the fire and your stress tortured mouse. Maybe a goldfish is the answer, but what your pet, we are told, the result is a good thing.
For men, one of the best ways to live longer is to marry a younger woman. A man of the likelihood of early death are cut by one fifth if his wife is between 15 and 17 years his junior. Unfortunately for the women when they marry a young man of their chances of dying increase.
So hope that your parents live long track of your fitness program, lose weight, keep a pet and if you are a man married a younger woman. Is this all you can play tennis, to 100 years.
