    I tell myself every day that I’m not working out for my beach body, I’m working out for my old lady body. I just want to be able to tie my own shoes when I’m 70.

      You’ve got more lofty goals than I do. :)

      I’d just like to extend the years I’m able to go to the bathroom by myself without another human required to help me relieve myself.

      They were discussing this on the radio the other day - one of the key things is being able to get out of a chair without using your hands.

        I think there’s a lot of value in just lying down on the floor and getting up like ten times a day. Being unable to get up after a fall is a huge problem for older people.
