The key driver of weight loss or weight gain is energy balance. Source: Getty

Weight loss can be difficult for anyone. But if youre over 50, it can be even harder. In order to understand why, we need to delve into some basic physiology and nutritional science.

The key driver of weight loss or weight gain is energy balance. Simply put, the amount of energy in (food and beverages) versus the amount of energy out (metabolism and exercise). For example, more energy in and less energy out equals weight gain. Around 60 to 75 per cent of our energy needs are attributed to our resting metabolic rate (RMR). This is the amount of energy we need to keep our bodys basic functions working. However, as we age our metabolism slows down and instead, our fat mass increases.

Exercise and daily physical activities like walking, gardening or grocery shopping are responsible for the second-largest portion of energy expenditure. Once again though, for over-50s, these things tend to be performed with less frequency, intensity, and consistency.

When it comes to diet and nutrition, no matter how much exercise and activity you accumulate, and how much lean mass you have, if you eat and drink more calories than you burn, youll put on weight. So, in order to lose weight and maintain a healthier body composition, we need to be able to tip our energy balance the other way.

There are hundreds of nutrition and exercise programs available at the touch of a button and almost all of them work, in theory. Compliance and adherence are the things that let most of us down. This is why its so important to find a strategy that is right for you and that youre able to stick to.

As a baseline, any good weight-loss program for over-50s should contain the following:

Sports injuries are always a concern, but with high school athletes working out on their ownthe last few months, worry has increased about what might happen when organized workouts restart.

Injury prevention for Section 1 athletesis a mainfocus of the 90-minute, sports-specific webinar programspromoted by Nyack athletic director Joe Sigillo and developedfor coaches and trainers by Dr. Alexander Rosado, the owner of Bardonia Physical Therapy in Rockland and Orange counties.

"Sports medicine professionals expect a high rate of injury," said Rosado, citing in part athletes' lack of exposureto athletic trainers, in-person coaching andgyms.

It's an issue, he says, that extends from the professional level all the way down to the youth level.Statistically,most soft-tissue injuries occur in the first third of seasons, Rosado noted. The lengthy COVID-19 layoff increases the likelihood of an issue.

Information about sport-specific movement, nutrition, hydration, mindset, speed, agility, strengthand recovery will be included in each interactive session. Data will be provided about injuries and their recurrence with information included about practice warm-ups that have specific purposes, according toSigillo, who notedSection 1 conferences financed the project.

Fall high school sports practices are slated to begin Aug. 24. It's unclear when Gov. Andrew Cuomo may give a green light to informalteam conditioning workouts sometime before that.

Much of the information is designed for coaches to share with their athletes so they can begin immediately incorporating things like specific pre-workout stretching into their exercise routines.

"We're empowering coaches to empower their students,'This is how you do it at home,' " Rosado said. "The whole purpose is to not waituntil August 24."

He said ways to "pre-hab" a once-injured andagain likely-to-be-injured areawill also be included.

Athletic directors and sports chairs sent links to the webinars to high school coaches. Sessions begin Monday with football and continue with girls soccer, boys soccer, field hockey, cross country, girls tennis, volleyball, girls swimming and cheer.

Each session will be recorded for later review and will include guest speakers.

Sigillo suggested thesessions could becomean "ongoing tool" coaches and trainers share with kids.

Rosado said physical testing procedures often enable coaches todetermine whether an athlete can't perform a drill because of a physiological reason that can be corrected.

Because of physiological differences, there will be separate girls and boys sessions. Rosado noted, in part, female-specific stretches and exercises will be reviewed to help reduce the risk of ACL tears.Girls, he said, are nine times more likely to tear their ACL than boys but specific exercises have been shown to reduce non-contact ACL injuries by 88%.

"My passion is on the field, not the treatment table," Rosado said.

The program is a much more developed version of a non-sport-specific presentation Rosado gave to some Rockland districts in the winter.

"COVID was a major catalyst for increasing and expanding that," Sigillo noted.

Mike Castaldo plans to watchsome sessions. The North Rockland assistant athletic director and assistant boys basketball coach, called Rosado's winter presentation "pretty cool."

He said North Rockland's trainers are big supporters of the program and he's encouraging his school's coaches to tune in.

"So many kids play year-round. Kids have to be educated about overuse and educated about what they can do to reduce risk," Castaldo said.

In addition to Rosado, Monday's speakers will includeAl Vermeil, who has been an NFL, MLB and NBA strength and conditioning coach; Christina Glennon, Bardonia Physical Therapy's director of rehabilitation who's also a physical therapist to U.S. Paralympiccyclists; John Hoke, North Rockland wrestling coach, who's a weightlifting coach certified in performance enhancement, youth conditioning and nutrition; and John Rahn, author and owner of Believe Athletic Training, whosespecialties include strength, nutrition,movement, performance and recovery.

FirstService Residential and Les Mills Announce Exclusive Offer on Digital Workouts for Residents and Associates - PR Web

Fitbit offers the best sleep tracking and heart health insights going, not to mention powerful new metrics such as Active Zone Minutes.

But if you love the data your Fitbit offers, a Fitbit Premium subscription enables you to use it better to make more positive changes.

Whether you want killer insights into your sleep, making sense of trends in your health data or simply getting fit, Fitbit Premium is all about giving you more tools to make positive changes.

Read on for the five Fitbit Premium features we couldnt live without.

One of the best parts of the Fitbit ecosystem is its sleep tracking tools, and Premium subscribers get even more from this aspect of the app.

While everyone gets incredible insights such as Sleep Score and Sleep Stages, only Premium subscribers get extra analysis into their slumber.

Premium users will also get to see a breakdown of how their Sleep Score is calculated, with individual scores for sleep duration, restoration and restlessness. This is displayed on a new screen, dedicated for Premium subscribers, and is broken down into the following sections:

Premium offers extra analysis into sleep duration, with a screen that shows sleep and wake periods. This aspect makes up 50% of your sleep score, so getting a breakdown can be hugely effective. You can see time asleep vs time awake and your sleep schedule.

Like free users, Premium shows a breakdown of your deep, light and REM sleep cycles. This will show time spent in each stage, and you should see yourself cycling through different types of sleep. Time spent in each stage counts for 25% of the score.

This is specific to Fitbit Premium and accounts for 25% of your sleep score. You can see your heart rate through the night and the percentage spent below resting heart rate. Youll see the effects of alcohol or caffeine in your heart rate data, and spending time below resting is a large part of your sleep score.

Premium users will also see the percentage tossing and turning made up your sleep. Again, working on this score and making changes, from reducing screen time, caffeine, alcohol and stress will dramatically affect your sleep score.

Fitbit Premium also offers Personalised Insights, which help to connect the dots in your Fitbit data and understand how things such how your sleep quality improves when your exercise increases.

A lot of Fitbit data can be passive. Your Fitbit device measures aspects of your body, and reports back data on whats going on under the hood.

Fitbit Premium offers more ways to take control, and start improving your health and fitness and the Dynamic Workouts are a perfect place to start.

Covering everything from High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), to kick boxing, barre and yoga Fitbits dynamic workouts are perfect whatever your level.

Whether you want a full body workout, purely focus on abs, workouts with kids, audio running guides, or five minute blast to full on classes, Fitbit Premium has content to get you sweating, moving and working.

These workouts are delivered from expert partners, including fitness brands such as Physique 57, barre3, Daily Burn, Popsugar and Yoga Studio.

Dive into the Discover tab on your Fitbit device to access a host of guided video workouts aimed at all abilities.

You dont need to have any kit either, as there are options for bodyweight exercises, as well as those with basic equipment perfect for at home workouts

Wellness Reports is a Premium feature that gives you a breakdown of your last 30 days of sleep, resting heart rate, weight (if tracked) and activity data.

Its downloaded and viewed as a PDF and offers an incredible way to look at your health stats in one place, perfect if you want to share your data with your GP or health specialist.

Its not just a re-creation of what youll find in the Fitbit app. Wellness Report also shows your monthly fitness data in comparison to previous months and even years. That means it goes one step further in revealing long term health data.

You can compare things like sleep quality, sleep schedule, across the long term, showing in black and white how your lifestyle is changing.

Making lifestyle changes isnt easy and while your Fitbit device is a fantastic tool, its just that. It cant do the hard work for you.

And while a Fitbit Premium cant burn the calories for you, or make you get to bed on time, it can at least let you know how to achieve your goals.

Premium offers Guided Programs, which is like having a lifestyle coach on your wrist. There are Guided Programs for getting more sleep, eating healthily, moving more and getting exercise.

Unlike just singular workouts, a Guided Program will last 1 3 weeks. Each program is more than just a set of targets and also included education, reading and then daily strategies.

For programs like Kick Your Sugar Habit you tick off each day as its accomplished, and the next day youll get a different set of reading and inspiration. For workout or activity-based Programs, you have to complete three Dynamic Workouts, or whatever the plan entails, to tick it off.

While Fitbit is a great tool for your physical wellbeing, its not just about steps, workouts and heart health. Fitbit Premium has guided mindfulness sessions, with over 150 to choose from.

There are guided breathing routines, bedtime stories, anti-anxiety meditations and more, including content from Aura and Ten percent Happier. If you're having trouble sleeping, there are guided sessions for that too.

Getting fit is easier when you enjoy it, so Fitbit Premiums challenges and adventures are a perfect way to get motivated.

Head to the Discover section of the app, choose Challenges & Adventures, and tap See More.

From here you can play games such as Fit Bingo, where you have to tick off a bingo card of mini fitness goals to create a pattern. The game can be played between 1-30 players, and timescales between 1 hour and 30 days.

You can also take on virtual adventures, again either between friends or just on your own. Examples include walking famous trails like the Valley Loop (35,000) or Pohono Trail (62,500) you can challenge a friend to be the first to traverse the distance over days or weeks, or just take on the challenge yourself.

And you dont have to take on the pre-made challenges. You can create custom ones with people in your friends list, competing for steps, active minutes or distance, setting the goal yourself from within the app. Just head to the Custom Challenge section to set up your competition.

Fitbit Premium is available to users of all Fitbit devices. After a free the trial period, Fitbit Premium costs 7.99 a month, or 79.99 a year. Click here to sign up.

In addition to challenges like navigating an uprooted schedule, wrangling children and sharing your Wi-Fi bandwidth with a household, pesky pains have likely crept up.

That's why therapeutic at-home massager manufacturer Wahl interviewed board-certified anesthesiologist and pain specialist Dr. Anita Gupta for tips on managing your pain while working from home.

Millions of people live with chronic pain, many of whom are experiencing exacerbated symptoms due to recent lifestyle changes like working from home, explains Dr. Gupta. While a comprehensive pain-management plan from your doctor is recommended, unfortunately, COVID-19 has increased barriers in obtaining treatment. She recommends the following tips for being proactive in your pain-relief

1. Add massage to your daily routine.

Staying ahead of pain is one of the best ways to prevent it, and a great approach is adding massage to your daily routine. It relieves muscle tension by enhancing blood flow; causing muscles to relax and decreasing inflammation by activating genes that naturally reduce swelling. Hand-held massagers are an excellent option for maintaining a massage regimen as they can be used in the comfort of your home. For example, the Wahl Deep Knead Massage Wrap offers both heat therapy and shiatsu massage therapy. Six shiatsu massage nodes vary in height to simulate the sensation of real fingers kneading at different pressures, and they can be programmed to rotate in either a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. It can be further customized by wrapping it around your upper back or neck and pulling the soft and flexible handgrips for added pressure.

2. Keep up physical activity.

You may not have a commute, but don't go directly from all night in bed, to all day at the computer. Schedule regular breaks in your work day, preferably that involve exercise. Home-based exercise programs are available virtually and can continue under the guidance of your doctor. Wear comfortable clothes, allow time to stretch and implement a hand-held massager to alleviate post-exercise flares. Consider doing strength and balance activities as well to stay healthy and reduce the risk of falling. It's crucial to remember, however, to seek medical advice if you experience chest pain, dizziness or sickness during exercise.

3. Adjust and adapt your home workspace.

Try to emulate the ergonomic environment you had at the office. Adjust your chair height as needed, keeping your feet flat on the floor. If your at-home work chair still isn't up to par, consider strapping on a lumbar support for better posture and less strain on your lower back. Upper back and neck pain could be the result of holding your head in a downward angle to look at your computer, so try propping up your monitor to eye level.

4. Manage your stress levels and mental health.

Chronic muscle and joint pain can be exacerbated during times of increased stress, like the change in routine that has come for many with COVID-19. Stress reduction and behavioral treatments are vital in soothing the central nervous system and pain response. One way to do this is by keeping up your pre-COVID-19 habits while working from home. For example, shower and dress as if you were going to the office; the familiar ritual can help maintain a motivated and positive attitude. However, it's equally important to find separation between your work life and home life. So if your dining table is now your desk, try moving your office set up to a closet on the weekends after all, out of sight, out of mind.

5. Maintain your medical regimen as prescribed by your doctor.

While visits to your doctor may now be less frequent, remember, most medications should not be abruptly discontinued as this can worsen systemic disease. If you're concerned about the availability of your medications, ask your doctor about the possibility of increasing your supply from 30 to 60 days. Or, if you're due for a check-in to get a prescription refill, see if your doctor is willing to do it virtually. Finally, many pharmacies offer home delivery, lessening the need for in-person interactions.

Now, more than ever, prioritizing your health is crucial, continued Dr. Gupta. The above tips are just some of the ways you can improve your physical well-being, and find the strength to better navigate the daily challenges of living through this global pandemic.

Whether your pre-COVID routine involved regular morning Waterfit sessions or afternoon Bridge, theres no doubt that the pandemic has hit the older population especially hard.

Not only are extra precautions required for everyday tasks like shopping or going for a walk, but many of the social activities that kept Saanichs older adults connected with friends and community were suddenly halted.

Throughout the shut-down, Saanich Recreation staff have worked to stay in touch with patrons who could no longer visit in person sharing via email and newsletter various activity tips or ways to stay virtually connected, for example.

Still, nothing replaces those in-person connections.

One thing you CAN do right now as the weather shines warmer and brighter is join Saanich Recreations free walking programs through local parks and trails a great way to get out and socialize safely while also enjoying a little exercise!

Charting a safe path forward

Like the rest of the Saanich recreation team, those working with older adult programming have been busy exploring how they can safelybegin offering programs again, recognizing that for the time being, not all things will be possible.

Weve heard a lot from our community recreation centre patrons, like the Cedar Hill Social Club, and theyre eager to come back, says Saanich recreation programmer Julie Wallace.

Everything has to go through a variety of steps, but what weve tried to focus on is what we can do.

Options under consideration include activities like table tennis and croquet that can be enjoyed outside, using minimal equipment that can be easily disinfected between users.

Other options include off-site offerings working with seniors communities through initiatives like the NEAT program Neighbours Enjoying Activities Together to bring some of those activities outside in a physically distanced way.

With summer camps starting this week, its hoped that more of the recreation facilities will continue to open gradually, although things will likely look a little different, including:

In the meantime, Julie offers a variety of tips and activities and yes, even some yummy recipes! on Saanichs Older Adults recreation page.

Tackle the latest Brain Buster sheet online, or download it for a friend or parent who might not have access to a computer, Julie suggests, adding that if youd like them mailed to you or have some brain teasers that youd like to share, call 250-475-5408.

And be sure to watch for more news and updates about the status of activities opening in the coming weeks.

It is an undisputed fact that exercise is good for you, no matter your age.

Regular aerobic and anaerobic exercise not only helps you feel better and makes you stronger, it also is one of the most prescribed treatments to help individuals deal with diabetes, high blood pressure, cholesterol issues, depression, anxiety and stress and that just touches the highlights. Exercise also helps improve your memory, your sleep and your overall mood.

As you age, regular exercise becomes even more important. The focus should be on continuing, adapting or starting an exercise routine that fits your current lifestyle and does no harm.

Christine Dewbre, executive director of Tennessee Senior Games, would typically be working overtime right now to finalize logistics before hundreds of athletes ranging in age from 50 to 100 descended upon Williamson County to compete in Olympic-style and recreational sports. Like most large summer events, however, the 2020 games set to take place the last week of June have been postponed.

While disappointed, Dewbre says she knows firsthand how exercise can transform someones life at any age.

Through our program, adults become healthier and stronger, take less medication and feel younger than their counterparts. Our testimonials regarding better health (both mental and physical) are countless, Dewbre says.

More importantly, studies conducted on actual senior athletes show better cardiovascular health, a fitness age 25 years younger than their counterparts and decreased incidents of diabetes and falling.

It is never too late to start that journey to a new lifestyle, she says, putting a big emphasis on never.

Tim Parrott developed a passion for helping older adults attain and retain their independence after earning a degree in exercise science. Today the National Institute for Fitness and Sports fitness manager works full time with residents at The Heritage at Brentwood.

Parrott is happy The Heritages Healthy Life Center which pre-COVID-19 offered multiple group exercise, yoga and dance classes, water aerobics and lap swimming in its large, heated indoor pool and 24/7 access to a well-equipped workout center is in the process of reopening, even if on a very limited basis.

When we are able to open the doors, well be excited to welcome them back, he says.

Using innovative and virtual training options, Parrott says the health and fitness programs offered over the past few months are still effectively challenging our residents in all the right ways. In fact, weve received such positive feedback about our adapted programming that we plan to continue many of these offerings beyond the pandemic.

If youre ready to break out of your house but still want to stay socially distanced, just hit a trail. Walking is one of the best, easiest and most economical ways to exercise. Williamson County and the cities of Brentwood, Franklin, Nolensville and Spring Hill all have miles of free multi-use and hiking trails to choose from whenever you want to venture outside of your neighborhood.

Many recreation centers, YMCA branches and fitness centers are reopening this week, too, though with limited capacities and stringent safety restrictions. If you are 65 or older and have a Medicare Advantage plan, it very likely includes a free membership to one of several national health and fitness programs designed specifically for senior adults you can take advantage of nearby.

The Williamson County Parks and Recreation Department partners with SilverSneakers (multiple providers), Silver & Fit (Cigna-Healthcare) and Renew Active (United Healthcare) in addition to offering its own extensive senior programing (and discounts!) to residents age 55 and up.

The YMCA of Middle Tennessee now partners with Renew Active, United Healthcares Medicare Advantage plan. Several private fitness centers also partner with one or more of the senior-focused plans.

According to its website, 88% of SilverSneakers participants say the program has improved their quality of life physically, emotionally and socially. And not just in ways you may imagine.

Stronger muscles and better endurance make it easier to carry groceries, work in the garden and even play with your grandchildren, says Julie Logue, SilverSneakers training manager.

Sounds good to me. Now I just need one of those grandchildren that so many of my friends already have. See you on the trail or in the gym soon!

Apple Watch Series 3

Nina Raja | CNBC

Apple introduced a slew of new features for its Apple Watch this week, ranging from sleep tracking to hand-washing reminders, most of which were targeted to all consumers.

All except for one: An update to its motion sensors that is designed to help the clinicians monitor patients' remotely as they age. Apple shared in a news release that the watch and iPhone can now track low-range cardio fitness, walking speed, double support time, step length and six-minute walk distance, among other metrics. The data will be available in the Health app in the fall.

Apple has described the metrics as "validated" because it compares them in internal studies to the gold standard for measurement.

The company said that, because of these updates, it now has a way to track "functional (aerobic) capacity" through the Apple Watch. That means it can start to assess a patients' mobility in a standardized way.

Most of what Apple does is intended for consumers at large, but these new features are most relevant to those who are aging or experiencing events that impact their ability to move freely because of an injury or procedure.

Apple said it is currently working with Zimmer Biomet, an orthopedics products company, on a service called mymobility, which uses Apple Watch's gait metrics to collect a user's walking speed and double support time a measurement of when both feet are on the ground on flat surfaces without GPS.This could be useful data for physicians after a procedure, like a knee or hip replacement, to assess their patients' rate of recovery between clinic visits.

Many doctors focused on heart health will use a"six minute walk test" in their clinics to measure how well someone is walking or recovering. Historically, patients have needed to go into a clinic to measure how far they've walked between set of cones or markers, while a supervisor wears a stopwatch.

"The goal isn't just to see how you walked in six minutes," explained Dr. Paul Friedman, a Professor of Medicine and Chair of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine atMayoClinic. "But to see how you compared to others your age and sex - and to look at that as an overall marker of health."

Dr. Friedman thinks that wearables can certainly play a role when it comes to measuring functional capacity, particularly in how it's changing over time.It's also a window into patients' everyday lives, where they might move differently than in the lab or the clinic. But it's still early days, and it's too soon to say whether health developers will flock to incorporate the new metrics into their apps.

But some studies are currently underway to assess the role of wearables in monitoring patients' mobility. The Palo Alto Veterans Institute for Research is testing whether a mobile medical app called VascTrac that monitors movement using Apple devices can predict endovascular failure of patients with peripheral artery disease, which refers to a narrowing ofperipheral arteriesserving the legs, stomach, arms and head.

"Think of it as a clinically validated way for us to know how you're doing in the real world," said Dr. Oliver Aalami, a vascular surgeon at Stanford University and a researcher behind the study.

Where he sees Apple Watch or the iPhone playing a role is by providing doctors with an activity index of sorts, so they can check in on general declines in physical activity over periods of time. Wearables can play a particularly important role during the pandemic, he notes, because patients might prefer to perform such tests or exercises at home. Ideally, he'd like for the data generated from wearables to be used as part of a structured program, which is supervised by a doctor or exercise specialist.

Dr. Jeffrey Wessler, a cardiologist based in New York, said he could see Apple Watch being particularly useful for monitoring how patients are faring during clinical trials. That's because it could allow for researchers to measure participants asynchronously, and without extra resources to track how they're responding to an intervention over time.

There's also the potential for health systems to team up with Apple and strike deals with health plans willing to pay for exercise interventions down the road. There are even cases where patients can enroll in physical therapy in lieu of needing a surgical procedure.

In the Netherlands,for instance, exercise therapy programs are covered for vascular patients with peripheral artery disease. Vascular surgeon Joep Teijink told CNBC by phone say that patients after six weeks of physical therapy are seeing promising results, and many do not require a procedure. Teijink said he's still determining how wearables can play a role in helping these patients.

In the United States, Dr. Aalami said that integrated health systems are most likely to be investing in exercise therapy programs using wearable devices because they get paid based on patient outcomes. At fee-for-service hospitals, there's less of a financial incentive to do so as they typically get paid for performing the procedures.

Most doctors agree that it's an area that needs more investment and resources in using wearables to monitor patients.

For Dr. Aalami, there's even potential down the road to "make physical activity a vital sign".

Still, not every doctor said they're blown away by the update.Some say that Apple needs to do a lot more for the medical community, and focus less on wellness features. They note that there are other ways of tracking movement, which are good enough for their purposes, but that Apple should focus on more sophisticated medical monitoring.

"Very few physicians use walking speed or stair ascent speed in everyday practice and can easily assess them if truly needed," saidChristopher Kelly, a cardiologist in Raleigh at North Carolina Heart and Vascular. "We need more creative innovation from Apple that really offers medical value."
