Get fit in time to hit the links By Michael P. McGee, PT
With spring just around the corner, now is the time for seniors wanting to get out on the golf course to start thinking about a fitness program. While many of you may not want to think of golf as a strenuous sport lets consider these facts. Golf courses are generally four miles long so whether your walking (which should be preferred) or riding in a cart 18 holes of golf requires a significant amount of walking, getting in and out of the cart, climbing up and
down slopes, and in and out of sand traps, bending and stooping to tee up your ball and retrieve errant shots. This is why I encourage my golfers, especially the seniors to perform an aerobic conditioning, strengthening and flexibility program so they can enjoy a safe and injury free summer of golf. Unfortunately many golfers seem to be more interested in the newest driver hoping for an increase in distance and accuracy, which will only happen if you take care of the most important piece of equipment on the golf course

Take a voyage in learning Those 50 and older can register for classes at Syracuse University’s Lifelong Learning Institute By Ellen Leahy March in CNY, besides the madness, can be a particularly dull time of year. But now there is a great resource for those 50 years and older. Consider a voyage through Syracuse University’s Lifelong Learning Institute. This was founded in 2008
through the University Gerontology Center at SU’s Maxwell School. One of its many facets is to offer non-credit classes specially designed for adults age 50 and older. Research shows that older adults who participate in meaningful activities enjoy better mental,physical,
social and economic health and an ongoing desire for learning. “These courses are good for physical health, mental health and cognitive health,” said Madonna Harrington Meyer, the Laura J. and L. Douglas Meredith Professor of Sociology and a senior research associate, at the Center for Policy Research SU’s Maxwell School. She added that mental Health is your emotional health – your mood, whether you are happy, it can affect your energy, and the healthy one is the more integrated he or she will be in society. Where as cognitive health is your intellectual ability – as we age people start to slow down, the more we use our brains, the better it is – this intellectual activity helps stimulate your brain.

Quantity and quality of life is focus By Patrick VanBeveren, PT, DPT, OCS, GCS Some folks say that exercise is the fountain of youth. The literature has consistently shown many benefits of exercise, from preventing heart disease to cancer. Almost every person knows that exercise is good for them. But often times distinctions are not drawn between different kinds of exercise. Aerobic exercise, or exercise to
make your heart and lung function better, includes walking, gardening, tennis, swimming and biking. Such exercise strengthens your heart, improves your breathing, lowers your blood pressure and lowers cholesterol. All will extend the quantity of your life, that is, contribute to you living longer. I’m sure you would agree
Patrick VanBeveren, PT, is physical therapy supervisor for St. Camillus Health and Rehabilitation Center
that that’s a worthwhile goal. But, what about the quality of your life? Typically building stronger muscles and joints allows you to enjoy your longevity. Strengthening exercises or doing exercises against resistance, improves your ability to move about freely, decreases joint pain and keeps your bones strong. It is interesting to note
that the majority of people who enter a nursing home do not do so because of medical problems per se. Usually people require nursing home assistance when they can no longer move around easily or safely. That is, when they lose enough strength to develop a “mobility disability.” Start improving the quality of your life now. Get more active. Start exercising against a resistance a little heavier than what your body is used to. Stand up out of a chair without using your hands; squat down as far as you can go and gradually over time increase the depth; step forward
and let the trailing knee lower to the floor (lunge); balance on one foot; repeatedly step up onto and off a single step; buy some weights, a stability ball or elastic tubing and do the exercises that come with your piece exercise equipment. Start low and go slow. But keep going and keep increasing the resistance. Make your body work. Your body will pay you back by allowing you to do what you want to do, when you want to do it, for as long as you want.
Are you at risk?
A common silent infection could be drastically increasing your risk of a fatal heart attack or stroke
N
o one was more surprised than Jack as the ER doctors raced to keep the massive heart attack he’d suffered from killing him. How can this be happening he wondered. His doctor had said he was doing fine. But now he knew he was in big, big trouble. Could the same thing happen to you? Sadly, the answer is yes.
We all know that high blood pressure and diabetes put us at risk. But a third of heart attacks happen to people who don’t have any of these problems. According to a study in Archives of Internal Medicine1 , “Although the traditional risk factor concept has been well established, it does not fully account for the risk of cardiovascular disease.”A study in the Journal of Periodontology2 notes, “Ninety-one percent of patients with cardiovascular disease suffered from moderate to severe periodontitis [gum disease]…” What makes gum disease so dangerous? Researchers believe: Bacteria from your mouth spill into your bloodstream invading the walls of blood vessels and causing hardening of the arteries. The infection causes an increase in blood levels of C-reactive protein, a substance known to raise the risk of heart attack and stroke. What’s more frightening is that 75-80% of Americans have some gum inflammation — and most don’t even know it. Long before gums begin to bleed and hurt… long before teeth start to loosen, bacteria are building up and infection is spreading. But most people have no idea they’re in danger — unless they receive a thorough gum examination. A quick and easy check of your gums could save your life or the life of a loved one.
