Begin afresh, afresh, afresh.
I saw a study recently that took some people between the the ages of 55 and 80 - half did some stretching exercises and half did aerobic exercise - and they did MRI scans at baseline, 6 months and 12 months. In the aerobic group there was a 2% increase in a certain part of the brain, the hippocampus, whereas in the stretching group there was a 1.4% decrease. Use it or lose it.
Awesomedont think i could take another 65 of training though
My psychiatrist says I'm fitter than most people twice my age.......
I saw that today too...amazing!

I'm amazed no one ever mentions Karl aka Ambrosia Kid, he's 86 and still competes, supports BG's and is still fairly sprightly!!
haha i was with him tonight at club thing, he looks well for his years too
It's all that Rice Pud and giving his out of date rock hard go bars to me, are you sure he's only 86?
Hills and Guinness!
Hats off to him.
However, considering the general population I think it's extremely easy and takes minimal effort, for an elderly, to be fitter than MOST people in their 30s.
