THE FOUR PILLARS OF HEALTHY AGING
As people age, Rogers believes exercise becomes even more important, not less.
" The goal isn ' t to become an elite athlete," he said. " It ' s to maintain the strength, endurance, balance, and mobility needed to stay independent and active for decades."
His healthy-aging philosophy centers around four key components:

➡ Strength training – Preserves muscle mass, supports bone density, improves metabolism, and makes daily activities easier.

➡ Cardiovascular exercise – Supports heart health and endurance.

➡ Balance training – Helps reduce fall risk and improve coordination.

➡ Mobility and flexibility – Maintains joint health and quality movement.

Among those four pillars, strength training remains the foundation.
" After age 30, we naturally begin losing muscle mass," Rogers said. " Strength training helps slow that process and maintain independence later in life."
