Exercise Programs In The ElderlyCDC Position Stands
“The CDC states that regular physical activity offers substantial improvements in health and well-being for the majority of Americans. Moderate physical activity performed on most days of the week can substantially reduce the risk of dying from heart disease, the leading cause of death in the United States and can reduce the risk of developing colon cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure.”

Exercise Programs In The ElderlyCDC Position Stands
• Provides scientific and technical support to the states, national organizations, and professional groups to promote physical activity
• National Physical Activity Initiative is the primary focus. Reflects CDC commitment to reduce major risk factors for chronic disease in the United States

Exercise Programs In The ElderlyCDC HAN (Healthy Aging Network)
Mission StatementThe mission of the Healthy Aging Research Network is to better
understand the determinants of healthy aging in older adult populations; to identify interventions that promote healthy aging; and to assist in the translation of such research into sustainable community-based programs throughout the nation.
Healthy aging is the development and maintenance of optimal
physical, mental and social well-being and function in older adults. It is most easily achieved when physical environments and communities are safe and support the adoption and maintenance of attitudes and behaviors known to promote health and well-being; and by the effective use of health services and community programs to prevent or minimize the impact of acute and chronic disease on function.

Exercise Programs In The ElderlyACSM Position Stand, 1998
Exercise and Physical Activity for Older Adults• Regular exercise reduces/prevents functional
decline associated with aging• Endurance training can maintain/improve
cardiovascular function• Strength training offsets loss of muscle mass• Exercise can improve bone health, improve
postural stability, increase flexibility and range of motion
• Reductions in risk factors improve health and affect life expectancy
