(6,110 posts)I do treadmill set at 3 degrees up-slope, moving at 22 min/mile, 5 times every week.
My exercise time for each session is now 32 minutes instead of previous 26 minutes.
The stronger the lungs are, the better chance of surviving lung infections by germs and viruses.
This has also dropped my blood pressure to 125/78. Not to mention keeping weight under control.
I am 80 years young and plan on making it to 100. The exercise is giving me tremendous energy.
I do not take any nutritional supplements, except a daily vitamin tablet and D3 vitamin pill.
My lawn is about average size and I can mow the entire lawn with a push mower without stopping.
Exercise is the greatest help to old guys like me to feel and stay and look young and fight disease.
Every one thinks I am no older than 65 years which makes me smile.
