New research studied the difference in mortality between two periods separated by 16 years, using estimates of physical activity. The men and women who were very active in the second period had a much lower risk of dying compared to those who were the least active in the same period. How active either group was in the earlier period didn't make a hoot of difference. Active people who stick with exercise will benefit as long as they remain active. For those who haven't been active--it's never too late to start.
