As I have gotten older, I have had to realize that my body doesn't like the punishment anymore. I am turning 50 later this year and have had 2 torn meniscus' as well as plantar fasciitis surgeries in the past few years. It takes a lot longer to recover.
Just when I am getting in a groove at the gym (multiple weeks of going regularly), one of my joints (knee/foot) has other ideas. I have started working out in group classes focusing on lower impact and that has helped a lot, but I do miss doing the heavier weights.
My biggest personal challenge is the late night snacking while watching TV with the spouse.
How are you guys dealing with this stuff?
