I'm 52 this year and have been working out consistently for 8 years. I'm just trying to stay in shape and keep a little size for the most part. I workout at a local gym 3 days a week on a chest/shoulders, back/bi, and leg/core regiment. I also walk and run 15 min beforehand to get the heart going. Workouts are roughly 1.5 hours each consisting of (3) sets of 10 of (3) different exercises for each muscle group. I'm still lifting a little heavy, as I don't really have any ailments that prevent me from doing so. Being careful is key.

I'm planning on building a new home in a year or two. When that happens I also plan to include a gym.

Keep at it.

I like your line... " ......I don't really have any ailments....." and I am thinking that I am lucky because at 66+, I don't have ailments!

Often when people talk about old famous people who are still active in their field, they say it's amazing they're so blessed with their health that they can keep doing what they do. I think that's turning cause and effect around. Those people don't keep going because they're lucky to be healthy, I believe they stay healthy because they just keep doing what they do.

Well put

Walking the dog and riding bikes for me.

3 to 5 mile walk most day’s then anything from 15 to 35 mile’s on the bike 1 - 2 times a week. Buying another mountain bike soon so mile’s will go down but effort will triple.
