I am 54 years old. I live in a city that is MOSTLY people my age, and older. MOST of these people are in various levels of weakness and sickness. To look at them, especially when our young people look at them (my son included), is terrifying! This is growing old?
But then I took him to see a man who was promoted as the "strongest man in the world." He was 59! I show my son on the internet a man named Jack LaLane. He is a 90 year old weightlifter.
And so on, and so on.
I exercise every day. So I am in great shape.
But everyone around me keep getting older and weaker.
They will not exercise, they have only excuses.
It makes me wonder why? If exercise will keep you healthy and strong as you grow older, why do you refuse to exercise?
They just will not. And they get weaker and weaker...
