The benefits of sports and exercise extend across all stages of life. In childhood, physical activity supports growth, coordination, and cognitive development. In adulthood, erotic, it helps maintain productivity, physical strength, and mental balance.
For older adults, exercise slows age-related declines in muscle mass, bone density, and balance. Regular physical activity reduces the risk of falls, supports cognitive health, and enhances independence.
Thus, exercise should be adapted, not abandoned, as individuals age, ensuring lifelong health and functional capacity.
