Today is your day Boomer! I am currently in the midst of an eight-week heart physio exercise program as I try to resume normal life after heart valve surgery. The three-day a week program involves 30 minutes of cardio and 45 minutes of 10 station weighlifting and stretching. It feels great and I am making good progress. Well, the World Health Organization is taking notice of us Boomers as we are among the 3.2 million world citizens that die every year from lack of physical activity. WHO says we should be doing this: 150 minutes of moderate intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity. At least 10-minute intervals of sustained aerobic activity. For more health benefits, an additional 300 minutes of moderate or 150 minutes of vigorous activity. Three or more days with balance exercises. Two or more days with strengthening exercises. So...being as physically active as possible! This means, for example, getting into a routine and not overdoing it. Working into exercises gradually and getting medical advice if required. By the way, WHO and my personal physiotherapists all say the same thing: you should still be able to talk while exercising. If not, you are going too hard! It means the "social" aspects of this are also beneficial! So, let's get movin' Boomers and maybe do it with a friend. Cheers!
