  • Staying physically active increases your odds of living a longer, healthier life at every age but is especially beneficial after turning 60.

The article "Stay Active, Live Longer: Why Exercise Matters at Every Age" by Christopher Bergland, published on Psychology Today, emphasizes the critical role of physical activity in promoting longevity and health across all age groups. Bergland discusses how regular exercise can mitigate the effects of aging by enhancing cardiovascular health, muscle strength, flexibility, and cognitive function. He highlights research indicating that even minimal physical activity can significantly reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers. The piece also touches on the psychological benefits of exercise, including mood enhancement and stress reduction, which contribute to overall well-being. Bergland advocates for a lifestyle that incorporates movement, suggesting that it's never too late to start exercising, and even small increases in activity can lead to substantial health benefits. He encourages readers to find activities they enjoy to ensure consistency, thereby making exercise a sustainable part of their daily routine.
