According to a recent study, people who start exercising later in life don’t seem to have a significant difference in mortality rates than those that have been exercising all of their lives. It’s the first research to show that older people can benefit from increasing their physical activity.
“A study of 2,205 Swedish men followed for more than 20 years from the age of 50 showed that exercise made no difference in premature death rates for at least a decade for those who waited until later in life to start physical activity.”
