LISS Cardio: A Joint-Friendly Workout With Great Health Benefits for Older Adults.

Low-intensity steady-state exercise gives HIIT, high-intensity interval training, a run for its money — at a slower pace that makes sticking with it easier.

By Michael Schroeder, AARP. Published August 23, 2024.

No pain, no gain? Go hard or go home? More like slow and steady wins the race.

At least that’s the case for many — if not most — older adults looking for an exercise routine they’ll actually stick with to boost cardiovascular and overall health. Experts say low-intensity steady-state (LISS) cardio ­— which could be anything from brisk walking or biking to swimming — could be that answer for many age 50 and older. Plus, the more relaxed, steady approach typically sidesteps risks ranging from joint sprains, strains and bone fractures to exercise-induced heart attacks linked with jumping into higher-intensity activity.

I've actually stopped eating 2-3 suppers over the week, cut out lunch other than just a piece of fruit. & sleep all weekend, so far down about  7 lbs this summer.
