Play tennis.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>The New York Times<\/em> has new research:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: left;\"><strong>The Best Sport for a Longer Life? Try Tennis<\/strong><br \/>\nPeople who played tennis, badminton or soccer tended to live longer than those who cycled, swam or jogged.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: left;\">Playing tennis and other sports that are social might add years to your life, according to a new epidemiological study of Danish men and women.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: left;\">The study found that adults who reported frequently participating in tennis or other racket and team sports lived longer than people who were sedentary. But they also lived longer than people who took part in reliably healthy but often solitary activities such as jogging, swimming and cycling.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: left;\">The results raise interesting questions about the role that social interactions might play in augmenting the benefits of exercise.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: left;\">At this point, no one doubts that being physically active improves our health and can extend our longevity. Multiple, recent epidemiological studies have pinpointed links between regular exercise and longer lives in men and women.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: left;\">But whether some activities might be better than others for lengthening life spans remains in dispute. One widely publicized 2017 study of more than 80,000 British men and women found that those who played racket sports tended to outlive those who jogged.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px; text-align: left;\">You can read the entire article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2018\/09\/05\/well\/move\/the-best-sport-for-a-longer-life-try-tennis.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>How to change a blocked air filter<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-43879-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.technologyinvestor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/SnakesAlive.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.technologyinvestor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/SnakesAlive.mp4\">https:\/\/www.technologyinvestor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/SnakesAlive.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>I got a renewal from these clowns.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This gives new meaning to The Subscription Economy.
