Recently, a study published online in the journal Heart showed that moderate to strenuous exercise for 20 minutes a day in early old age (70-75 years) is best avoided for major heart diseases in late old age (over 80 years old), including heart failure.
Any disease will be fatal to the elderly over the age of 70. Heart disease and cardiovascular disease are the black hands behind the ghost door that push the elderly to the ghost door.
Regardless of gender and ethnicity, physical activity is associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and longer lifespan, which is no secret and has been confirmed by multiple studies. The benefits of exercise are consistent with the efforts put in.
But there are fewer studies specifically on whether exercise in later life helps prevent heart disease and stroke in old age.
To fill this knowledge gap, the researchers used data from Progetto Veneto Anziani (ProVA), which studied 3,099 elderly Italians (65 years and older).
An initial assessment was conducted between 1995 and 1997, including a detailed medical history, physical examination, scans, and a series of blood tests, and two further evaluations were conducted four years later and seven years later.
At the start of the study, women were more likely than men to have more than 4 diseases at the same time, with higher prevalence of osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and chronic kidney disease; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and diabetes were more common in men.
Participants filled out questionnaires about their physical activity levels at each point in time. Moderate physical activity includes walking, bowling and fishing, while strenuous physical activity includes gardening (planting), gym workouts, cycling, dancing and swimming.
Those who add up to 20 minutes or more of physical activity per day are defined as active; those below that time are defined as inactive.
In addition, the researchers collected other potentially key background information about household income, educational attainment, number of family members, and smoking and alcohol consumption.
The health of all participants was then tracked by linking to discharge records and death certificates as of the end of December 2018. The final analysis included 2754 participants with complete data, of whom 1398 were women (60%).
During the monitoring period, 1,037 new cases of heart disease, heart failure and stroke were diagnosed.
Over time, increased levels of physical activity and maintaining an active lifestyle have been associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and death in both men and women.
Over time, most participants had a steady pattern of positive physical activity. Stable high-intensity exercise patterns were associated with a significantly reduced (52%) risk of cardiovascular disease in men compared to stable low-intensity exercise patterns.
The biggest benefit reported is that it occurs at age 70. The risk was only slightly lower at age 75 and not reduced at age 80-85, suggesting that improving physical activity in old age may have the greatest impact.
A J-shaped curve of exercise length was also observed, with moderate to vigorous physical activity of 20 to 40 minutes per day, with a reduction in heart disease and heart failure being most pronounced.
Based on the study data, they concluded: "Given that it may be more effective in reducing cardiovascular risk, the goal of the relevant departments should be to promote or start physical activity in the mid to late stages." Preferably a national movement.
The researchers concluded: "At least 20 minutes of moderate to strenuous exercise per day should be recommended to achieve maximum cardiovascular benefits." ”

Paipai recommends that readers accompany the elderly in their homes to carry out appropriate and moderate physical exercise according to their own physical condition. If the physical condition does not allow, perhaps it is also a good choice to accompany them for a walk after meals.
