RE: Physical Activity is a Must for Maintaining Health When We are Elderly...But How Much is Needed?

in #science7 years ago (edited)

one of the biggest risk factors to our elderly loved ones becoming disabled [...] is actually a lack physical inactivity.

Of all the things to miswrite, you chose the main thesis of the article! :p Now elderly people everywhere will be trying to move less!

Forty Three Minutes Per Week! That is so very little!

Indeed. All one needs to do is pick up gardening or something.

Hopefully though people start exercising before they hit 70! A bit too late by then, but still beneficial as the article shows.

Sort:  

Try again!

UGH, a lack of physical INACTIVITY... come on brain! I will fix that! :D

I've been used to work on a standing desk for a while and it beats the hell out of the chair.

By "standing desk" I mean tossing some books on the side and work on the book shelf :P Or any high surface really.

That's an engineering solution. Self made standing desk :D

Haha I'm always like that. When I was a kid my mom bought a coffee machine and I grabbed the user's manual and made her some coffee, she was so happy!

A few minutes later she found the paper filters un-opened in the kitchen and she asked.. Wait, how did you make the coffee?

Toilet paper :P

Somehow not finding paper filters didn't stop me from making coffee, sometimes you just gotta use whatever tools you have.

You must have some quality toilet paper! I am not sure whether mine would actually hold up against the stress of the coffee grounds and the water.

Haha not coffee grounds.. I used Nescafe :P

It must have tasted terrible.

And it holds if you fold the papers enough, I've done it camping a few years ago, also with a clean bandana. :P

I am not a coffee drinker but my girlfriend is...

I used Nescafe :P

It must have tasted terrible.

She has confirmed on numerous occasions that terrible is the default taste of Nescafe. :D If anything, maybe your toilet paper filter made it more palatable!

also with a clean bandana.

Oh lord, bandana filtration! Only for the most hardcore coffee drinkers.
