Too old to exercise? Oh no, you're not

Categories: Fitness, Nutrition & Supplements

No one is too old for anything, said the hosts of the The View on Monday. Look at presidential candidate John McCain. Old. How about Olympic swimmer Dara Torres? Older than her competitors and subject of much discussion regarding aging athletes. If McCain is fit for running the country and the 40-ish Torres can outswim those younger than her by 20 years, then you, yes you, are not too old to exercise. What you do and how you do it may change as you age. But get this: It's never too late to start a fitness routine. And it's all important that you keep moving throughout the years.

Here, experts explain what happens to the body as it gets older and highlight what workouts work best for each age, beginning at two years of age -- because just as you're never too old to break a sweat, it's also never too soon to exercising.
