Wonderful! My Dad, whom we lost 14 years ago, would never have considered going to a gym or "exercising". But he grew up on and later owned and operated a sizable cattle ranch, (while working an additional full-time job until retirement) into his mid 70's. So he was strong and fit from all his work from hauling hay, building fence, and the hundred other tasks an operation like that takes. I, on the other hand, went for the city life and have to manufacture activities to get and stay fit. I love the concept of "Never Too Late". I'm 69, maybe in the best shape of my life, and see lots of fun challenges ahead! Most of which I will be told I am too old for such foolishness! Which I love!
Thanks for this! I had a father and mother that did none of this they made it to their 80s but it wasn’t a life I would have wanted. Your father’s being sounds like one to admire and emulate! Tell him HB!
Thanks for your note. There are no guarantees for any of us, but all we can do is work on the factors where we have some control. I'll let him know you said HB!
I plan on 80 birthday Burpees
You will crush those my friend.
And luving it

Love this. I'm taking my cues from this spirit.

Thanks for posting this! 80 will arrive for a lot of us way quicker than we think ( or wish).
I hope to reach 80 and find out what's on that island!
With what you are doing right now, I would say the odds are strongly in your favor!!!!!
I have been doing birthday Burpees since I was about 55. N2LATE :-) 66 now.
