Consider This from NPR

Listen Later

According to NPR's Allison Aubrey, who covers health and wellness, the official recommendation is to aim for more than 150 minutes a week of moderate-intensity physical activity. That could be running, walking, biking, swimming, or weightlifting.

We meet a group of active older people, who show it's never too late to find movement and exercise that works for you.
