The passage talks over the topic on whether middle-aged people and senior citizens should go in for physical activities. More and more people over forty start to run, and the older join the running club as well.

All these are distinct from the requirement of the senior citizens in America. The cardiologist,The Training of the elderly people Articles doctor Theodore Gel Crop wishes that elderly people put the nationwide exercise plan into practice. He said: "we are adopting an approach which is excessive protective. Our middle-aged and people and senior citizens are always advised, or actually compelled to decrease the physical activity, with the result to the extent of atrophy on account of inactivity, thus it results in the destructive result-even if it is not lethal". In recent 20 or 30 years, there was an argument about whether the middle-aged should participate in the physical exercise. How to Stop Suicide, the book wrote by P J Stan Crone in 1905, reads: "Sports is a state of mind, which is like the sheep, we follow the bellwether as well. We are told "exercises are beneficial to your health", and hence divinize it as celebrated dictum whatever it is convincing or not, and have your cracking joints and the stiff muscles which won't work experience the dispensable fatigue, just because we regard it as the indispensable appendage to daily life. Do keep in mind that you don't have to exercise.
But now there finally appear the omens of change. One of them is that more and more people over forty begin to run. We can know from the report provided by the Nationwide Data Center of Running: among the 18466 runners who participated in the official games, about 2250 runners were over the age of 40. In addition, they exercised hard and ran well compared with the young runners in twenties and thirties. In some games by age grading (every 5 years is divided into a grade), the phenomenon is not seldom that champions of higher grade (50 years old to 54 years old, for example) run faster than the champions of lower grade. I met a 72-year-old runner called Lacy E Perry in a race in the city of Soak Sana in New Jersey not long before. He began to run at 60 after a doctor had exhorted him to do some exercise. Now he is one of the members of the local Old Defenders Club of Young Men's Christian Association, and he runs for 6 miles a day and can surpass the runners who are of half of his age. He said to me: "I can run till 50 years later by the doctor's words.
As mentioned in Chapter 4, Doctor Fred Karsh has proved that physical exercise can prevent or even eliminate several major age-related physiological changes. Moreover, the report of the research in women from 52 years old to 79 years old by Doctor Herbert Devries and Gene Adams (their work are briefly mentioned in the second chapter) in University of Southern California demonstrates that only a three-month exercise can make a tangible result of the improvement of cardiovascular system and the decrease in heart rate at the state of rest.
