Beneficial activities include walking, gardening, and dancing. • People who are not physically active can improve their health and well-being through small increases in their level of activity. • Activities that improve balance, flexibility, strength and endurance help older adults do the tasks they need to do to live independently, and help prevent falls. • Aim for at least 30 minutes of activity, for at least 10 minutes at a time, five days a week.
