The secret to longevity is all about maintaining movement

(BPT) - Longevity has become a buzzword in recent years, focusing the conversation around living longer. However, there's another part of the conversation to consider: health span, or the quality of those additional years. It's not just adding years to your life; it's about maintaining the movement, mobility and independence to live those years to the max.

The human body was made to move, and movement is part of nearly every moment of daily life. You walk from place to place, bend to pick something up, lift groceries, climb stairs, work at your desk, exercise, care for your family and make time for the hobbies you love. How you move today can heavily influence how active, independent and capable you are years from now.
