Issues that the elderly must pay attention to:
1. As we get older, our feet and legs must always remain strong.
2. When we get old, we shouldn't worry about our hair turning gray or our skin sagging or wrinkled. 3. Among the signs of "longevity," strong leg muscles are listed as the most important and fundamental muscles, as outlined in the American Journal of Prevention. 4. If you do not move your legs for two weeks, your leg strength will decrease for 10 years. 5. A study by the University of Copenhagen in Denmark found that, regardless of age, within two weeks of "inactivity", the strength of leg muscles will be weakened by one-third, which is equivalent to aging for 20 to 30 years. 6. As our leg muscles weaken, it will take a long time to recover even as we rehab and exercise. 7. Therefore, regular exercise (such as walking) is very important. 8. The weight (load) of the entire body remains on the legs. 9. The foot is a kind of "pillar" that bears the weight of the human body. Interestingly, 50% of a person's body weight is in the bones, and 50% of the bones are in the two legs. 10. The largest and strongest joints and bones in the human body are also in the legs. 11. The "iron triangle" formed by strong bones, strong muscles and flexible joints carries the most important load on the human body. 12. 70% of human activities and energy burning in life are completed by two feet. 13. Did you know? When a man is young, his thighs are strong enough to lift a small car! 14. "Legs and feet" are the center of body movement. 15. The two legs have 50% of the nerves of the human body, 50% of the blood vessels and 50% of the blood flowing through them. 16. This is the large circulatory network that connects the body. 17. When the feet and legs are healthy, the regular blood flow goes on smoothly, so people with muscular legs will definitely have a "strong heart". 18. The "aging" of the human body starts from the feet first, and then develops upwards. 19. As we grow older, the accuracy and speed of the transmission of instructions between the brain and the legs decrease, which is completely different from that of young people. 20. With the passage of time, the calcium of bones will be lost sooner or later, making the elderly more prone to fractures. 21. After the bone fracture of the elderly, it is easy to cause a series of complications, especially fatal diseases, such as cerebral thrombosis. 22. Did you know that 15% of the elderly will die within a year once their thigh is broken! 23. It's never too late to exercise your legs, even after 60 or older.24. Although our feet and legs will bi gradually age over time, exercising our feet and legs is a lifelong task. . 🤷🏻♂. 🧠👂👁️..🥂
