Your body is slowing breaking down. Your responsibilities only go keep going up as you age. Overall, things get harder.

    I have been told that the muscles change with age to become more “resistant” and less “explosive”. Meaning that as people age they have less explosive force but they can do exercise for longer. That’s why a lot of people get into running when they are 50.

      Holy crap this is true but it makes it hard to run. I am great at yoga, have stability and strength, I do lift sometimes too, but so much slow twitch, losing agility and bounciness.
