Inactivity, Not Aging Causes Most of our Health Problems
Just like the young, older people can gain many benefits from exercising. Life can be made a lot easier through improvements in strength, balance, coordination, and mobility. If the person has not exercised for a while, they must start slow. Even walking 10 minutes per day will give them great benefits.
Weight training is also a great option. Start them on a 20 minute program (3-4 exercises), and increase them from there as they adapt. Keep sets at 2-3, reps at 10-15, and the rest interval between sets at 90 seconds.
The facts:- Improvements in fitness and oxygen consumption with training are similar for younger or older men and women. Though, an older person will generally start at a lower level and peak at a lower level than a younger person.
- Older subjects show greater gains in muscle oxidative enzyme activities.
- Aging appears neither to impair the ability to improve muscle strength nor prevent muscle growth.
- Exercise can help arthritic patients by increasing strength and mobility.
Older people who exercise have:- Higher VO2max values and half the expected decrease in VO2max due to age
- Higher HDL cholesterol and lower LDL cholesterol
- Enhanced glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity
- Greater strength, reaction time, and a lower risk of falling
- Increased bone density (reduced chance of osteoporosis)

Monthly costs for the Premier Plus program is just $109.95 and a one time set up fee of $100. The monthly rate is guaranteed never to go up as long as they continue their membership.
In January 2004, IAB announced a unique Rewards Program that actually rewards loyal membership. IAB will send a rewards check of 50% of all payments made during the past five consecutive years. This effectively reduces the cost of membership to one half. Members may also opt to go ten consecutive years instead and receive a check for 100% of all their monthly payments during that time. This then makes IAB a cost free membership. Members receive all the benefits plus receive all their monthly dues back.
Even though there are a number of other good companies available, IAB is the only one that offers health savings plus insured benefits plus valuable non medical benefits plus a 100% return of all the monthly payments made. Guaranteed.
Hands down, IAB is the company of choice for those with little or no medical insurance, for those with major medical coverage who need more benefits and protection, and for those who simply want a disciplined way to save money while they receive medical and other benefits that exceed the interest they could have earned in a bank, treasury bill or CD.
Enrollment in the International Association of Benefits (IAB) is easy and can be done online. Simply go to www.nocostmedical.com and click the green Premier Plus Button on the left. Other plans are also available, for Seniors (Classic) and those who only want dental, prescription, vision and chiropractic (Signature) care. The Premier is the same as the Premier Plus without the Intensive Care and Coronary Care benefits.
Memberships are also available to groups, businesses and organizations. We will show you how to provide these benefits at no cost to your company or organization and also how to enhance your company’s bottom line simply by administering IAB to your staff or employees. For more information go to www.nocostmedical.com.
