Aging doesn’t mean slowing down—it’s an opportunity to embrace an active and fulfilling lifestyle. According to the CDC, nearly 28% of adults aged 50 and older are physically inactive, with inactivity rates rising even higher among those with chronic diseases. However, research shows that staying active significantly improves longevity, heart health, and cognitive function. At Edencrest Living, we recognize the importance of movement and offer a variety of programs to keep our residents engaged, healthy, and thriving.
The Risks of Physical Inactivity for Seniors
A sedentary lifestyle contributes to numerous health concerns, including:
✅ Increased Risk of Chronic Disease – Lack of exercise raises the likelihood of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis.
✅ Higher Fall Rates – Inactive seniors have weaker muscles and poorer balance, leading to a greater risk of
falls and fractures.
✅ Cognitive Decline – Exercise is linked to a lower risk of dementia and improved memory retention.
