Hi Guys,
Great post, I believe in keeping fit all year long and your base of fitness will help you maintain condition. My activities change season to season and year to year. At 47 I still try to play as much competitive team sports as possible (they are more fun). I am the oldest on the flag football field and often on the soccer field as well. I started lifting weights about 1.5 months ago and the change has been great. I coach 2 traveling soccer teams so I get some exercise with teens twice a week.I also try to ride bicycles when possible (easier on the joints).
Funny thing is at 40 everything seemed to bother me, ie knees, back, neck, instead of quitting activities I increased them and all problems went away within 6 months. My new theory is, when I slow down I will fall apart. I am only 5'7.5" and weigh 165, I also believe that it is easier on the body to be on the smaller, thinner side.
You only live once, do it right and once is enough.
