| Summary |
"Losing your strength, balance, and stamina is not a natural part of aging. So why do so many of us gradually become disabled and lose our independence as we grow older? The chief culprit is prolonged, uninterrupted sitting caused by office work, long commutes, and modern sedentary living. The human body is designed to move, not stay still for hours at a time. Designed to move presents a simple, easy-to-follow, science-based movement program to help you regain your good health and stay healthy for the rest of your life. The Designed to Move program offers a variety of easy, low impact exercises that can dramatically improve your strength, balance, mood, and long-term health" -- Page [4] of cover. |
