102 Year old Golfer Hits Hole-in-one!

This weekend I saw something on one of the news channels about a 102 year old woman who hit a hole-in-one. She used a driver on the 100 yard hole, but because of the slope of the green, couldn't see where her ball went. When they approached the green, her companions found it in the hole.

Amazing! Most people don't live that long and most who do, have lost their mobility by that time.

Just goes to show that most of you can keep your mobility as long as you want with a little work. While I'm sure she has lost a little strength and flexibility with age, but obviously not enough to keep her from golfing. Another example of someone older who can still function well because she kept moving.

Its a simple formula. If you want to keep your posture and mobility as you age, you have to work at it! That doesn't mean that you have to join a gym and spend hours and hours exercising. You just need to move your body regularly and work your muscles against some resistance, whether it be dumbbells, tubing, or the weight of your own body.

You need to keep your muscles strong to support your joints and keep your mobility, and you need to move your joints in different directions, to keep them from getting stiff.
