Active Seniors

Stay Active

"If you don't use it you will use it." a statement that rings true for aging people everywhere. You need to exercise your mind and body constantly, otherwise your brain and your physical condition will deteriorate.

Enjoy your golden years more with a fit and active mind and body. Socializing with others, working on puzzles, and reading can help keep your mind sharp and healthy. A moderate-intensity workout that can be done inside, outside, or in bed, can help keep your body strong and protect you from injuries and/or ailments.

The studies have been done and the proof is in...active seniors enjoy life more.

Safety tips for active seniors:

  • Stay hydrated - Drink water constantly.
  • Listen to your body - Stop if you feel like you should stop.
  • Listen to your body some more - Slow down if you feel like you should slow down.
  • Beware of extreme temperatures - You are not able to tolerate extreme heat or cold anymore.
  • Protect your feet - Wear proper shoes with comfy socks.
