I spent my 30s feeling like a retiree, but then I bought a bicycle at age 39 and started riding 25-50 miles a day. Now I'm approaching my 60s and I'm in the best shape of my life. Barring catastrophic and permanent injuries, I think the main problem with aging is that being sedentary causes your body to decay and the older you are the more time you've had to be sedentary. Get up off your dead asses, people, and don't tell me you don't have the time for exercise. You have plenty of time to watch TV and scroll through your phones, turn some of that time into something useful.

And for those wondering, yeah it sucks a first getting into a routine of physical training. Find your drive, keep it up, and eventually you may find you can't do without it. It gets so much easier after a while.

Good on you dude. I have some friends who sit around all day, gulping down 40oz sodas, wondering why they puff going up one set of stairs.

Put the liquid candy down, unglued yourself from the couch and get out into the world.

Life goes by too fast to be vegetating at home all day.
