• Resumen

  • One-third of people over the age of 65 fall every year, often as a result of poorer eyesight, weaker muscles or dizziness from illness or medication. When older people fall, they are more likely to break bones, setting off a chain of health problems--a quarter of adults aged 69 or older who fracture their hip die within a year. Here, Klein talks about the obstacle course, a training that would help prevent fall.
