How do you keep from being slower when you get old?!
Question: How do you keep from being slower when you get old.?
I seen this old dude, went to get his mail and It took him 5 years to get to his mailbox....Then I said to myself, I'll never be that slow. So what should I do so I don't move at a snails pace when I get older.? Oh yea I workout and play sports, so do I have anything to worry about.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
I'm 54, and right now I move rather slowly: probably irritating slowly for you.
I'm in the middle of having both knees replaced. If you've never had that done, it will give you a whole, new working definition of "pain" and while you're in rehab for this, you will NOT be moving quickly.
Of course, now -- a year from now, I'm told my knees will be in good enough condition so that we can celebrate our 20th anniversary in Europe where I plan to climb the Alps.
He might be in the process of having (or recovering from) having knees replaced, or a hip replacement (not fun, either), or he could have a prosthesis, especially if he's diabetic and has lost a foot or a leg.
Here's another thing: God willing, you will age too, and eventually you'll reach middle age and then old age. I realize us "older folks" all had a duty to die off at 30 so as not to interfere with the plans of younger people; but alas, when I was in my 30s I was concertizing in Europe and just didn't feel the need to die. You, too, will be one of us and a little bit of empathy now will go a long, LONG way when you're our age.
And by the way, "you seen" nothing. The phrase you want is, "I saw".Health Question & Answer

wow thats really exagerated.lol
well the thing is you have to keep in mind is when ppl get older they change , or it could eb due to a stroke etc or becuase they didn't eat right when they were younger etc etc etc it catches up or sometimes its just gentic. The best thing u can do is jsut stay active in a healthy range and perhaps u won't be so weak and slow in old age as some ppl may become but there really is no way of knowing for sure.
You just gotta live your life the best you can and try not to worry about the future like about becoming old.Health Question & Answer
