Gymnastics for the elderly

Abstract

The elderly often take refuge in the world of their past, when they were in their adolescence, youth or adulthood, because at that stage of their lives they were loved, admired and occupied a preponderant place in the decisions that were taken within the family and they were not helpless.

It is necessary to travel to the past, to determine the functions that were attributed to this age group, because when society changed, many of them either changed little, or were eliminated, instead of changing too. The educational function of the older adult is irreplaceable, especially in this globalized world where the value system is depreciated to the extent that material values rose in price before the spiritual ones
