What Kinds of Exercises and Physical Activities Improve Health and Physical Ability?

“I started playing tennis 38 years ago for pleasure. After moving south to get away from the cold and snow of the Midwest, I started playing year round. I play with friends every weekend, both singles and doubles. After tennis, we socialize over refreshments. That’s the best part of our get-together. At age 65, I’m the oldest in the group; the youngest is 16. I love the game and hope to play forever.”
