Older adults and people with disabilities can gain significant health benefits with a moderate amount of physical activity, preferably daily. Physical activity doesn't need to be strenuous to bring health benefits. What's important is to include physical activity as part of a regular routine.

For older adults, this moderate amount of activity can come from

longer sessions of moderately intense activities such as walking or swimming
shorter sessions of more vigorous activities such as fast walking or stair-climbing
Greater amounts of physical activity can bring more benefits. But it shouldn't be done excessively, or your risk of injury will increase.

People with disabilities are less likely to engage in regular moderate physical activity. Still, they can benefit from

moderately intense activities (such as 3040 minutes of using a wheelchair)
shorter sessions of more intense activity (such as 20 minutes of wheelchair basketball)
