Should You Be Worried About Your Parent’s Sedentary Lifestyle?
I’m in the car with my husband when my sports watch vibrates. On the display is a crude stick figure jumping up and down.
Stop the car!” I cry out, jokingly. “I have to do some jumping jacks!” We both laugh, and he does not stop the car. I’m compulsive, but I’m not THAT compulsive.
While I do ignore my watch’s intermittent entreaties to stop whatever I’m doing and jump around, I don’t ignore my body. Most days I get in somewhere 8,000 and 10,000 steps (around 7,000 is the suggested number for good health).
