Eating sensibly? Lose weight and keep it off. Drink too much or hit a buffet? Hey, there it goes, right to the ass. You can work out obsessively and it will have minimal effect if you don't eat right.

I should probably do some pushups or something but other than my noodle arms I don't really want a ton of muscle.

As far as old people, keep moving. My dad walks around the home. Mobility is a huge issue for older people so staving that off as long as possible is key.



You won't put on a ton of muscle if you're not eating a ton

You should, however, be as strong as you can be at all times. Future you thanks you.

Present me probably owes himself some better endurance, too. After I dropped 50 lbs I could better keep up with the chainsmoking 20 year olds, but they still have better stamina.

Nothing will fix my wrister, though.
