I’ve come to a somewhat different conclusion, but there is obviously some truth in what you say.
I am convinced that if we continue to treat our bodies like they were thirty, getting a lot of exercise and eating well, we’ll remain a lot closer to it, than if we accept the inevitable and surrender to it.
Go out and run folks. Go out and run those patterns you did in football.
Do your exercises. Lift weights. Do pushups and situps. Exercise your mind.
Live life to the fullest. Think young. You can be at any age.
Absolutely right on. Got to stay active by all means. The body was meant to be dynamic and functions best with activity.
I think diet becomes more important and sun exposure, fluid intake too, because the systems are less efficient with aging. Processing and absorption don’t operate at the same levels. The liver doesn’t filter out toxins as efficiently, etc. etc.
If you compensate for the lower efficiency and stay active, you’ve done all you can. Personally I’m pretty good in these areas.
Mental attitude is probably the thing I work on most. Sometimes reading articles on FR affects that if I let it. Grrrr..... Lots of crazy Shiite going down.
