Moderate Exercise Is Necessary For Good Health |
| |
Moderate exercise is necessary for good health.
At a minimum, walk a mile or more several times a week (or daily) and move the arms around to loosen up the joints.
If you can't walk or ride a stationary bicycle, use a rowing machine, swim, or join wheel chair races.
If you can do none of these things, you have my sympathy.
I had a young colleague who suffered from polio in child- hood, so one leg was short and supported by a built-up shoe. One day, this person was absent from the office, because a lung had collapsed. He should at least have worked up his pulse rate and breathing on a rowing machine, several times per week.
Recent TV news said walking as little as 2½ hours per week can reduce rates of breast cancer, so 5 hours can't hurt
females or males.
I find that a brisk half hour walk raises my pulse to about 115, then it drops back below 70 by the time I have finished my morning shower. My normal neighborhood route measures 1.8 miles.
