Cheating Father Time: 50-Year-Old Can Be Every Bit as Fit as Someone 30 Years Younger, but Exercise Is Key
ScienceDaily (Oct. 11, 2011) — Who is likely to be fitter: a lazy 20-year-old or an active 50-year-old? New research from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology’s K.G. Jebsen Center of Exercise in Medicine provides statistical evidence that the 50-year-old can be every bit as fit as someone 30 years younger. But exercise — how much, and how intense — is the key, say K.G. Jebsen Center researchers.
New research shows that age need not be a limiting factor in improving cardiovascular fitness. You can cheat Father Time if you work out regularly and with high intensity intervals — and in so doing, improve your overall health. (Credit: NTNU Info/Tor Monsen)
