The Importance of Multicomponent Training for Healthy Aging

In order to help more people reach advanced ages in the best possible state of health, it is important to combat sedentary lifestyles so that individuals can postpone the deleterious effects of ageing as long as possible. Active and healthy ageing is the main objective in this process.
