Senior Life: Physical Activity

Dr. Brenda Daniels, Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine Physician with Baptist Health South Florida, says it is good for people to know that exercise does not mean running a half marathon. It doesn't have to be endurance, there is stretching, and different types of exercises that can help you to reach out for things, and to maintain joint function. "There are opportunities to work on your physical health and you can start slow and if you get into it then you can continue to bigger and better things."
