46 in the summer and putting a bit of effort in still.
Every 10 years I've noticed a difference in my body & what I can put it through & get away with.
Gave up alcohol last year - really didn't think it agreed with me in the end. Not missed it one bit, although I've developed a bit of a sweet tooth.
Stomach is shrinking very slowly, BMI of 24.9 though.
I'll do some gym work out on my decking here and get my pect's back again when the weather improves.
Apart from that, I have no real weaknesses that I can do away with, I don't like cake, chocolate, wine, biscuits, butter etc etc, all the things we know would make a difference! I do like a big main meal / cooked breakfast, small lunch and a snack at 6-ish. It seems to work for me so I'll keep trundling on.
Entered my first solo 24hr mtn bike event in May, so that's my aim with the training right now. I don't even think about my age TBH as most of the guys I train with are Vets anyhow. 50 might be something of a watershed - we'll see when we get there. At present trying to manage 3 rides a week (10hrs on the bike) but the weather isn't helping. Just done 2x spin sessions back-to-back this morning from 07:45hrs, my first in over a year and I was soaked in sweat and shot at the end.
+1 for Iainc - fitness drops away horribly if you stay away for 2+ weeks or more.
