 just a few parts of them, are able to follow

 recommendation. From my point of view, the main reason behind
this
 issue could be because they do not create

To begin
 with, the lifestyle that

Furthermore
, most

 live in apartments where there is not enough space for exercising and some of them cannot afford the gyms because of the high membership fees. In order to solve

Moreover
, the gyms could offer a discount for membership according to their

, since elderly

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
