USE IT OR LOSE IT.
Research shows that people who maintain consistent physical fitness as they age experience slower biological aging, better cardiovascular health, stronger muscles and bones, and lower risks of chronic diseases compared to those who cycle in and out of shape. Studies have also found that lifelong exercisers have metabolic profiles and muscle tissue similar to those decades younger, while those with inconsistent exercise patterns tend to lose muscle mass, gain fat, and see quicker declines in strength, endurance, and overall health with age. Consistency, not intensity, is the key factor in aging well.
When the evidence is so obvious I really have a hard time understanding why someone would rather FEEL WORSE as they age instead of putting in a just few hours a week to avoid that.
Age isn’t the reason you’re over weight and weak. Your habits are.
