That
saying about being only as old as you feel is backed up by a new
science. A study found that people who had positive views on aging were
nearly 50% more likely to recover fully from a disabling event. Positive
thinkers also showed slower decline in the ability to perform daily
personal tasks as they got older. Source Link
You
can forget the fads and skip the gym equipment too, because now your
body is all you need to get fit. A new trend called the body-weight
workout uses basic exercises like push-ups, planks, and pull-ups. And
functional fitness that uses strength training to improve balance is
also becoming popular, especially for older adults. Source Link
Who
says marriage is just for older people? A new survey found that college
students think 25 is the perfect age to get married. It’s the older
generation that’s putting the brakes on lifelong commitments, as parents
in the survey say they think 25 is still a bit too young for their kids
to be exchanging wedding vows. Source Link
