The Role of Exercise in Telomere Maintenance

Lesson 5/12 | Study Time: 20 Min
The Role of Exercise in Telomere Maintenance

The Role of Exercise in Telomere Maintenance

Regular physical activity slows telomere shortening by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and supporting cellular regeneration.


Best Exercises for Telomere Health:


  • Aerobic Exercise (Running, Swimming, Cycling): Improves cardiovascular health and reduces systemic inflammation.

  • Strength Training (Weightlifting, Resistance Exercises): Enhances mitochondrial function and telomere stability.

  • Yoga & Tai Chi: Reduce stress hormones like cortisol, which accelerate telomere shortening.

Engaging in at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week supports telomere length and longevity.
