The Benefits of Regular Exercise for Seniors in Senior Living
Exercise is one of the foundations to keeping seniors healthy in retirement. Regular exercise provides a variety of physical, mental, and emotional benefits for seniors in senior living and assisted living. Our community at MorningStar offers a modern fitness center to encourage a healthy and full life for seniors. Our life enrichment teams also plan regular fitness classes to maintain muscle strength and mobility. If you’re interested in learning all about the benefits of regular exercise, keep reading below.
Maintaining a Healthy Weight
Exercise, even something simple like walking, helps seniors maintain a healthy weight. Senior living communities that offer access to walking trails, sidewalks, exercise rooms, and other places for seniors to walk encourages a healthy environment. Maintaining a healthy weight reduces seniors’ risk of chronic diseases and other health concerns, too.
Improved Mood
How much we move our bodies can certainly have an impact on how we feel about life. Exercise has been proven to improve moods and emotional reactions. Regular exercise helps us to clear our minds and be one within our bodies. This promotes good overall health, especially for seniors who may be experiencing stress or irritability.
