Association of long-term exercise training with risk of falls, fractures, hospitalizations, and mortality in older adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis

This simply means your doctor has to get you 100% recovered so you can do long term exercise, rather than the admonitions to walk perfectly. The last time I fell was in one of my walks in the woods when I was cutting down an invasive buckthorn tree and was mostly thru it. I was trying to roll it off the stump when my grip slipped and I flipped over backwards. Luckily this time my glasses stayed on my face. 

Remember it is YOUR DOCTORS' RESPOSIBILITY to get you 100% recovered. No excuses allowed. Don't pay them if they don't perform. Incompetence should never be paid.

Association of long-term exercise training with risk of falls, fractures, hospitalizations, and mortality in older adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis

JAMA Internal Medicine — de Souto Barreto P, et al. | January 02, 2019

Via searching PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, SportDiscus, PsychInfo, and Ageline through March 2018, researchers systematically reviewed and studied the association of long-term exercise interventions (≥1 year) with the risk of falls, injurious falls, multiple falls, fractures, hospitalization, and mortality in older adults. Forty-six studies (22,709 participants) and 40 (21,868 participants) in the meta-analyses were included in the review. According to findings, long-term exercise, especially moderate intensity, multicomponent training (eg, aerobic plus strength plus balance) with balance exercises (eg, balance, strength training for the lower limbs, and aerobic exercise [eg, walking]), performed 2 to 3 times per week, seems to be a safe and effective intervention for decreasing the risk of being a faller/injurious faller in older populations.
