Welcome to the Not Old Better Show, I'm host Paul Vogelze, and this is episode 222.

Today's show is part of our Fitness Friday series and it's another great one in our Fitness Friday program.

We've got an important story about an important program from the National Institute on Aging

one of 27 institutes and centers at the National Institutes of Health.

As all of us in the not old better audience know today,

the population of the world is older than ever

before. The National Institute on Aging NIA at NIH supports and conducts research to better understand the aging process as well as diseases

and conditions that can occur as we grow older.

One of the National Institute on Aging's important programs is Go for Life exercise and physical

fitness campaign. Go for life is evidence-based exercise. An evidence-based practice is a practice

that has been rigorously evaluated.

In other words, it has been shown

that it is supported by data, not just based on theory.

So this is real stuff.

And our guest today is Stephanie Daly,

who is the NIA Director of National Go for Life

Exercise and Physical Activity Campaign for Older People.

The Go for Life Campaign is based on scientific information.

It's a research-based campaign and the information is translated has been translated into consumer friendly language

so that it's easily available to the public and the resources have been tailored to older adults.

That of course is our guest today, Stephanie Daly, speaking to us from her offices at the National

Institute on Aging via internet phone. Please join me in welcoming Stephanie Daily.
