A study was done on over 10,000 people to see if exercise can prevent falls. It does. Men who don’t exercise regularly are twice as likely to fall as those men who DO exercise regularly. Interestingly, they found that in women, it makes no statistical difference if they exercise or not. With all of the known benefits of exercise, I would take my chances and engage in regular exercise anyway, ladies.
