Abstract
Aging can be defined as a physiological process consisting of a set of permanent physiological changes that occur after adulthood, with the exception of disease-induced changes. Aging tends to be progressive, universal, inevitable and irreversible, although it is currently considered flexible in some respects if an active and balanced lifestyle is followed. The boundary of human life is dictated by the very internal organization of the organism. Physiological age, as opposed to chronological (calendar) age, is defined by the individual ability of the organism to adapt to environmental conditions, usually expressed through endurance, strength, flexibility, coordination and capacity. The World Health Organization (WHO) identifies physical inactivity as the fourth risk factor for overall mortality after high blood pressure, smoking, and high blood sugar. It is estimated that at least 50% of the changes attributable to the aging population of the developed world are due to atrophy as a result of physical inactivity.
