Even though doctors recommend old people to take more exercise, they do not

exercise enough. What can be the reasons for old people not exercising enough?
What will be your suggestions on that?

Although doctors suggest that old people need to do exercise, they tend to seldom
do it. There are several reasons for this issue, and some solutions to tackle it.

One reason why old people do not exercise enough is that they have a fear of
injurys. This is because their bones are generally weak, and if it has any injury
when they do exercise, it can take many months or even years to recover. Take
my grandmother as an example. She stumbled and took a little fall when she ran-
in a park, and then she had to use a wheelchair for six months due to her roken
leg. Since then, she has been afraid of doing any exercise. The second reason is
that they are too busy on their second jobs, such as teaching, working in a private
dental clinic, after retirement because their pension is low. Take my dentist, who is
over 65 year olds, as an example. He still spends a lot of time working in his own
dental clinic to make money because his pension per month is only 300$. As a
result, he does not have enough time to do exercise.

There are several solutions which can help old people make exercise as a habit.
The primary one is that the government should pay for physical trainers for the
elderly because they know exactly what exercise is suitable for the old people.
Moreover, the trainers'professional competence bring the old people a sense of
safety when they do exercise, and this contributes significantly to their motivation
to do exercise more. The second solution foris that the government should
introduce laws that prohibit them from having a second job after retirement and
also increase pensions. Therefore, this may help them have more free time enjoy a
healthier lifestyle
