good reason that life is movement,
"shrimp that falls asleep he's running"
and many more thing to show that
sedentary is bad for health. And it is
in reality the movement is vital, but
when you arrive to the sixth decade of
existence, many people feel the need to
lead a life of "repose" crave retirement
just for that.
However, it argues that increasing the

proliferation of schools of physical
culture called "spa" where men and women
caring for him hard, and which he plans
to offer exercises to food systems that
contribute to maintaining a harmonious
body.
Therefore, simultaneously has been
developed what is called "gerontogimnasia"
word that derives from elderly = old =
and gymnastics routine movements, and
under which designates training to
preserve the qualities of individuals to

advised you only have one level of
training. Should generally be avoided
fatigue, and remember that the rest
between routines is as important as the
physical labor is not to draw muscles,
but to preserve a functioning joint.
Likewise, it is good to note that
subjects aged who wish to register in
these programs must undergo a health
check prior to this level to know that
your heart, blood pressure, if you do
not have metabolic diseases (diabetes,
hypercholesterolemia, anemia, etc.)..
This will serve to group them more or
less equal conditions while evident
progress.
In short, fitness for seniors can and
should be practiced by all who at this
stage deemed existential well, no matter
who they are or parkinsonian diabetics,
hypertensive or arthrosis, arthritis or
heart failure if they have a good
conductor and that this plan follows the
