My grandpa who lived until 91 went to the bathroom and had a heart attack and passed. He always told me do not be sedative always move. Even if you're at home. I took his advice.

It is more important to be functional than long lived.

Many older folks die on the pot after straining to go #2. This can cause the heart to fail or seizures. Learned this from several nurses.

“You know you should develop a regular exercise routine, but you lack motivation.”

Exercise is the bane of the drinking class.

You need to exercise all the body parts you want to keep.

My father is 79 and in shape.

I have had numerous medical issues but do my best to stay in shape.

It's important to keep pounding the message of physical fitness and diet.

LIFE EXPECTANCY IS GOING DOWN!!!

“by 2019 it hit 79. But in 2020, life expectancy fell to 77 and dropped further to 76.4 in 2021”

Medicine is advancing, so is pharmacology. We live in a country where people have heat and AC, filtered air, tap water is drinking grade everywhere, the FDA and local code compliance is strict with food quality, storage, transportation and preparation standards. The EPA is strict with environmental, and OSHA is strict with safety standards, and yet people are dying younger.

IMHO: Obesity and a sedentary lifestyle.

At 81 I’m still playing Rec basketball twice a week during the school year and outdoors usually three times a week during the summer. When I’m asked about it, my reply is “God has been better to me than I deserve”.

Those 50 and 60 year old kids are killing me, though. Not to mention the occasional 30 something.

Interesting thread.
I’m a fitness instructor, specializing in senior health & fitness. 🙂
Before you start any fitness routine, please, please talk to your doctor first.
It will help you to evaluate your specific needs and also your limitations for your fitness routine.
