Boomers Put More Boogey in Their Step, Beware of “Boomeritis”
Cassie here with your healthy dose of “Fitness Wisdom Wednesday!”
This week’s post is about “Boomeritis” (yes, it’s an actual word). Here’s an article that I recently wrote for San Diego News Network on how active baby boomers can prevent the onset of boomeritis as they age:
They dominate this country’s society – 78 million in the U.S., making up nearly one-third of our nation’s population, according to the Census Bureau.
They are the baby boomers — an influential and burgeoning demographic of late 40-year-old to 60-somethings born during the World War II birth rate boom lasting from 1946 through about 1964.
While baby boomers are upping their activity as a preventative measure to combat chronic health issues, their increased physical regimen may come at a price.
