[quote=Anonymous]I think walking and simply not being sedentary is the THE best thing you can do because it doesn't create the long term joint stress that running and other high impact aerobic activities can cause. My 89 yo mom spent 40 years as a schoolteacher---on her feet all day everyday. In retirement she walked a couple of miles a day for exercise. Though she now has age-related deterioration in her back discs and knees, and gets the occasional cortisone shot, she has never had any joint replaced, or ligament tear, or any of the types of things my highly athletic 60 yo friends have experienced.[/quote]
