Although only a small proportion of older adults in the United States engage in
recommended amounts of physical exercise, the health benefits of exercise for
this population and the potential for lowering health care costs are substantial.

individuals with disabilities remains limited. In the context of health reform
and emerging opportunities in developing integrated systems of care, the
experience in Tuscany in implementing a community-based program of exercise for
the elderly should be of interest.
