At what point did you stop caring about being super fit?

I'm 35 and I have only cared about my blood pressure, cholesterol, and other readings done during my yearly blood work for several years now. I gave up trying to get the 6 pack abs and ripped muscles mainly because my body type doesn't really allow it

I have three kids, and a good, but taxing job. Between the kids, the hours, and the honey do lists, hitting the gym has taken a huge back seat. I tell myself that when the kids move out I'm turning one on the bedrooms into a home gym, but I'm probably lying lol.

Definitely! It can be more difficult with kids but mine are my motivation.

The best way to tell if you're in a serious relationship is whether or not both of you have gained 20 lbs

My diet was never gonna let me have a six-pack even in High School. Plus I'm a barrel chested SOB so I've never been able to look super cut. But, right now I'm way thinner and stronger than I was when I graduated Bama a few years ago. I'm currently working out and running a bunch because I fear how bad my habits will be when I'm married and have kids

In my mid 60’s and at college weight. It’s shifted a little but I stopped running and lifting 30 years ago. Eat good heathy food (once a day and only what fits on the plate, no dessert) drink in moderation ( Les than 10 a day), smile good cigars (not Tampa Nuggets) have sex (with opposite sex) as much as possible and you will be fine. I have lost 10” on my vertical jump but I only know that because I had to get a ball out of tree my granddaughter had kicked on it. Works for me but everyone is different.

As you get older, staying fit is less about working out and more about eating right.

For years in my late twenties, after I started making real money, I was convinced I could and should eat everything I wanted and that I could just work out more to make up the difference. Wrong. That shite didn't work at all and I developed a dad bod.

A couple years into my thirties I realized portion control is the best way to manage my diet. I still eat just about whatever I want. I just don't eat a shite ton of it and I don't eat it late at night.

I've lost 30 pounds since when I got married just by not making a happy plate every damn night and not eating a bunch of cookies before bed.

One of the best benefits of not over eating when you get older is you won't get indigestion and heartburn. That's one of the things they don't really tell you about getting old. The last Bama game I went to this year I thought I could scarf down a bunch of food and then chug the last bit of my whiskey drink before I walked into the stadium. Wrong! I had so much heartburn before I could even make it to my seat. I was checking all the concession stands for Tums.

At 52 I can look at a piece of pizza and gain two pounds . Need to lose 15-20

I have two teenagers that enjoy lifting. It is very motivational to maintain superiority over them.

My knees are shite so my oldest has definitely moved ahead of me when it comes to squats, but I smoke his arse on the bench and overhead press.

My middle child is getting up there though. Gonna put him in his place this afternoon.

I've kept off 60+ pounds since around 2017, went from 230 to in the 160s. Turned 30 this past year and have never really got close to getting back to that weight, was around 175 at the end of the year(I crashed HARD after dropping to 157 in June). Friend said I got in "Patrick Bateman shape" at 157, but it was so exhausting to keep that up.

I'm a proponent of DDPY, you'll get in good shape but you're never gonna be jacked to the gills. I don't do anything crazy diet wise, try to avoid excess and keep ingredients low. Gave up beer on my own, which is funny because I work in a local brewery
