You guys are great! I don't like getting a year older, because I still feel like I did at 39. My secrets to longevity are diet and exercise of course. DON'T drink or smoke to excess, and having a five year old daughter and a girl half my age helps as well. REALLY!
I started a regular exercise program two and half months ago, nothing too strenuous but exercise nonetheless. I walk about a mile and half daily at a brisk pace, do about 10-15 minutes of weight work and spend five minutes on a small trampoline. Altogether maybe forty minutes, 4-5 days a week. It's amazing what a difference this has made for me in less than three months. I have far more energy than before and have begun to do push-ups and chin-ups as well. I couldn't do more than one three months ago!
It's been a real eye opener to see so many of my buddies passing away in the last couple of years, many younger than me. I know they had some bad habits, but it was still a shock since I knew most of them since we were kids. Thanks again, I'm like Freddie, a pool lifer!
