Walking is an exercise that makes you a healthy person which is a big thing for all 50+ individuals. Walking is easy for anyone to do and it is a great program for all seniors to think seriously about actively doing it.

I have listed some points on about walking:

1) Regular walking, if you do it as an exercise, can prevent or delay any type of joint stiffness. It can also reduce arthritis pain, which is a part of joint stiffness, and a lot more. It can help older people stay independent.

2) There are four main types of joint exercises and seniors need some of each as told by the National Institute of Health (NIH), and I have listed them below:

a) Activities like walking builds your endurance and gives you stamina. This motion improves the health of your heart and improves your blood flow. This is probable the most import exercise that ay fifty-plus person can do. Your heart and blood flow are extremely important for you to keep healthy.

This activity that I am talking about is a daily process, but you do not have do all the exercises in the same day, but it is important that you should do them once every week. They all require that you must keep active.
