I've eaten enough tasty vegan meals made with real food to know that there is no reason to consume fake meats and cheeses that are made in a factory.
I get plenty of exercise and am in the “normal” weight range. I plan to continue this as long as I can, hopefully into my 80’s (but genetics or bad luck might interfere). I’m not concerned with living longer as much as having a good quality of life. Mobility is a big part of that, I think.
However, now that I’m a grandmother I joke that I’m allowed to have those wing flaps under my arms [emoji6]

Love tricep dips! Last year when the local gym was closed for covid, I went daily to the kiddie playground and did pull up, dips, and other PT ( sit ups, push ups, lunges ) to keep in shape!Triceps dips can stave those off a good long time, though not forever (gravity wins).
Some of that just seems like excess skin, and we loose skin tone as we age.Triceps dips can stave those off a good long time, though not forever (gravity wins).However, now that I’m a grandmother I joke that I’m allowed to have those wing flaps under my arms [emoji6]

Can knock it out with out ( and more ) even without breaking a sweat. I did hundreds of them throughout the day for many months while the local gyms were closed last year.^^^ Dang!
How many of the youngsters here who read the above post immediately drop to the ground and try to see if they can do 22 pushups?

I envy the people of Okinawa and their longevity into their 90s and 100s. Small eating portions, active lifestyle, little to no red meat, no processed foods, are just some of the ways of them to help them live a long life.
Eh, I just found that video of Chuck Grassley and Tom Cotton doing pushups on stage.
See this: https://nypost.com/2021/06/30/87-year-old-chuck-grassley-battles-tom-cotton-44-in-push-up-challenge/
That's not how I do pushups! You've got to get your chest a lot lower.
I still give Grassley some credits for his age though. It's not bad for an 87. I cannot be sure I will even live to 87.
True, though the downside is Japan is facing an epidemic of dementia, as I recently heard in an NPR piece on the subject.
Increased bodily longevity can mean the person transforms into a healthy host for a decaying brain.
Tom Cotton - those are my kind of push-ups, and he’s 18 years younger!Yes, neither of them is doing real pushups. But that's still impressive for 87.
Are there any obese late 80's early 90 year olds here? I am late 50's and would probably be considered obese. I'm assuming that I won't make it much past 80.
My Dad is/was. He was always listed as obese when in the Dr.s office but he never looked "fat" to me. He weighed 220 at his highest but he always carried a lot of muscle, even into his later years.
