By getting active seniors can age well and age independently. Much of the usual age related decline in physical fitness is preventable and even reversible through proper attention to achieving the required physical activity levels.
Our Exercise Physiologist understands the complex nature of senior health and prescribes exercise interventions that allow seniors to remain strong, active and independent .
At Age Well For Life EP we understand that early detection of physical weakness and attention to appropriate physical activity and exercise levels is key to ageing well and ageing independently.
Our ability to enjoy an active and independent lifestyle well into the later years will depend to a large degree on how well we maintain our physical activity levels.
Unfortunately the majority of older adults do not get the amount of exercise they require and are living dangerously close to their maximum abilities during normal activities of daily living .
Although the life expectancy of Australians continues to increase, so too does the possibility of living more years with physical limitation.
If we had a pill that conferred all the confirmed health benefits of exercise, would we not do everything humanly possible to see to it that everyone had access to this wonder drug? Would it not be the most prescribed pill in the history of mankind?
