[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How would you know what walking is for a 90 year older for a 79-year-old? Do you work in a retirement home or where so that you know?[/quote] Well, I go to a gym that has a large senior membership. 70s and up. I see women taking step classes and I can’t believe they are my moms age! I guess that’s what makes me wonder what’s going on with my mom. Are these women anomalies? [/quote] Well there is your answer. Does your mom exercise and walk a lot or not? I see plenty at my gym, and then my mom is obese and barely walks. There is a correlation, I believe, between physical and mental health and your levels of exercise, walking, doing something. If you don't use it, you lose it. It truly is that simple. Those women are making a point to work out and to keep their bodies working. If your mom is working out just like them, then you should worry. If your mom sits at home all day long, well, you know the answer. [/quote]
