Rehab Regs, August 19, 2004

Exercise programs are generally aimed at young people, and women of all ages, experts told the Herald. But injuries, surgery, and poor health practices over the ages of 40 or 50 make men a primary audience for increased exercise. A 1999 study at Duke University found exercise was as beneficial as medication in treating depression in older men.
