Manchester Exercise Helps Cope with Pain and Aging
"If you don't keep going, you're gonna die." How is that for a title to a paper?! Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries was even startled a bit, but it is true. No matter your age, your pain, your life plan, we all have to keep going forward! This is so true for middle- to older-age Manchester back and neck pain sufferers. Fortunately, Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries is here for you.
ANTI-AGING EXERCISE BENEFITS
We all start considering anti-aging benefits at that certain age! One group of researchers stated that regular exercise has multi-system anti-aging effects and called for more research to gain knowledge of just how molecular mediators of exercise benefits function in older folks rather than just turning to pharmaceuticals. (1) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries enthusiastically agrees! Walking is amazing! This an important message for all Manchester pain sufferers!
BENEFICIAL DAILY EXERCISE STEPS
Take a walking stroll each day with a goal of 7000 steps. Why? Research. 2,110 black and white men and women and their steps-per-day counts were studied. They wore an accelerometer from 2005 to 2006 and then were monitored for a mean of 10.8 years. Their stats were analyzed in 2020 and 2021 to see what, if any, association was found between steps-per-day and all-mortality death risk. This study was a portion of the larger CARDIA (Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults) study. Steps-taken-per-day were defined as “low” (less than 7000), “moderate” (7000-9999) and “high” (more than 10,000). Stepping intensity – stepping rate – played a role, too. Moderate/high step rate was associated with a reduced risk of mortality in black and white women and men in middle-age who walked 7000 steps or more a day compared with those who took less. (2) Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries witnesses how walking helps – 7000 steps or not – and encourages Manchester chiropractic patients to take walks as best they can. Any walk works!
