Older adults 65 years of age and older compose a great portion of the US
population. Physiologic changes of aging that limit function and general quality
of life occur at a faster rate as we get older. There is high-quality evidence
that exercise activity has many favorable benefits for older adults. The ideal
exercise program in older adults should include aerobic, resistance, flexibility,
and balance training. The exercise recommendations should be individually
tailored to the abilities, precautions, and goals of each person. They also
should be of sufficient intensity, volume, and duration in order to achieve
maximal benefits.
