keep your leg strong during your old age....

*-KEEP YOUR LEGS STRONG-DURING YOUR OLD AGE*

 *When we are old, our feet must always remain strong.*

*When a man ages, he should not be afraid of his hair turning white (or) his skin sagging (or) wrinkles*

*Among the signs of longevity, as summarized by the US magazine "Prevention", *strong leg muscles are listed on the top of the list.*

When you do not move your legs for two weeks  your leg strength will decrease by 10 years*

 *A study from the University of Copenhagen in Denmark found that both old and young, during two weeks of inactivity, leg muscle strength got weakened by a third, which is equivalent to 20-30 years of ageing.*

  *As your leg muscles weaken, it will take a long time to recover, even if you do rehabilitation exercises later.*

  *Therefore, regular exercise like walking, is very important.*

*The whole body pressure is on your legs.*

  *1.The foot is the pillar bearing the burden of the human body.  50% of a person's bones and 50% of the muscles, are in the two legs.*

*The largest and strongest joints and bones of the human body are also in the legs*.

 *"Strong bones, strong muscles, and flexible joints form the "Iron Triangle" that carries the most important load on the human body."*

 *70% of human activity and burning of energy in one's life, is done by the two feet.*

*Did you know this ??*

 *When a person is young, his thighs have enough strength to lift a small car !!*

 *2. The foot is the center of body locomotion.*

 

*Both the legs together have 50% of the nerves of the human body, 50% of the blood vessels and 50% of the blood flowing through them.  It is the large circulatory network that connects the body.*

*Only when the feet are healthy then the convention current of blood runs smoothly, so people who have strong leg muscles will definitely have a strong heart.*

 *3. Aging starts from the feet upwards.*

*As a person gets older, the accuracy and speed of  transmission of instructions between the  the brain and the legs decreases, unlike when a person is young.*

*In addition, the so-called *Bone-fertilizer Calcium*will sooner or later be lost with the passage of time, making the elderly more prone to Bone fractures*

  *Fractures in the elderly easily trigger a series of diseases, especially fatal diseases such as brain thrombosis.*

 *Do you know that 15% of elderly patients will die within a year of a thigh-bone fracture* !!

  *Exercising the legs, is never too late, even after the age of 60 years*

 *Although our feet will gradually age with time, exercising our feet is a life-long task.  Only by strengthening the legs, can one prevent further aging*

*Please walk for at least 30-40 minutes a day, to ensure that your legs receive sufficient exercise and to ensure that your leg muscles remain Healthy*
