  • Is basketball a good exercise for people over 30

    Is basketball a good exercise for people over 30
    Feb 18 2026
    In this episode of our Muscle and Fitness podcast, we examine “Hoops for Health: Basketball’s Quiet Gains for Adults Over 30.”
    We explore how recreational basketball delivers a highly effective prescription for three pillars of midlife fitness: muscle tone, cardiovascular resilience, and coordination. The sport’s stop-start rhythm replicates high-intensity interval training, elevating heart rate in controlled bursts that strengthen cardiac muscle, improve circulation, and help regulate blood pressure and cholesterol levels. An hour of play typically burns 600 to 800 calories while enhancing cardiorespiratory endurance.
    Central to the discussion is a 2024 randomized controlled trial published in the journal Life, in which middle-aged participants (aged 40 to 55) who engaged in modified basketball sessions twice weekly for three months experienced statistically significant blood-pressure reductions of 7 to 12 percent, measurable gains in aerobic capacity, and improvements in static balance of 45 to 55 percent and flexibility of 17 to 75 percent.
