fitness over 40 tips?



I started a consistent program of exercise over a year ago, at age 42 and have been pleased with the results. One thing that might be different now than my teenage years is every couple weeks I need to take a day or two off to heal up my lower back, knees, ankles or all of the above. I think regular stretching would be a good idea. I don't currently do that. Other 40-somethings out there got any tips for saving your joints? Thanks!


Answers:


1You must do stretches before and after excercise, also try alternating between swimming and gym work. Make sure you warm up and down and it will definately save your joints.
The more persistant you are with excercise the healthier and stronger your limbs and bones will be.
