I have been a lifelong athlete and member of the Joliet Bicycle Club for over 20 years. I feel that staying fit has brought much benefit to my life. Here is an inspirational article on another long time member of the JBC who is now 85 years old and continues to stay fit!
Recent research has revealed that much smaller amounts of exercise than previously thought can yield large health benefits. Many current guidelines recommend at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise per week, and for added benefit moderate to vigorous muscle strengthening exercises 2 days a week.
Any comments on how exercise has benefited your life?
