85. Get Dense.
As we age, we lose bone density and muscle mass. While there are meds for this, a better prescription might be strength training. This article provides more in-depth information.
I enjoyed reading this article: Forget the Hotshot Trainer with the Six-Pack, Boomers Want Mature Fitness Coaches. Unless you are young and want to spend hours in the gym, my recommendation is to do strength training in a casual manner. Bottomline: Most older people want to be able to day-to-day things easily...their hobbies, play with grandchildren and other activities. For me, it's boating, hiking, shooting hoops, hanging out with my grandkids, and an occasional round of golf and set of tennis.
