Pranam Sridharji it is ok. But after 50 running or jogging is to be calculatively be made. Exercise is giving blood circulation from the stationary body position. And for those who have no neck problems, a slow steady treadmill is enough if broken into 2 to 4 sessions for a total time of 20 minutes. Ther is avibrator machine and 10 minutes on that will do the same. And walking (need not always be brisk) for 10mintes 3 sessions of each renders the same effect. At the end of the day, as age advances and the muscles shrink, there is bound to be some disorders which shall be tolerated. KR IRS 141221
