I walk for about a mile, pump iron for 20 minutes, stretch my back, and drink 16 oz of fresh vegetable juice 6 days a week. If I miss more than a day or two of my regimen, I can really feel it. At my age, I can either accept a little pain every day or suffer chronic pain if I refuse to do that. And I don't do well with chronic pain.
These bodies don't last forever. The older they get, the more attention you need to give them.
When I was about 50 years old, I was pumping iron big-time. Six days a week for two years. I never felt better. But, I wass working out for about 90 minutes a day and I lacked the discipline to keep it up.
I'm 62 now and have some health issues. I'll do my best to keep up the walking and try to stay active. If all else fails, well, nobody lives forever and it has been a hell of a ride.
