Yes, I agree with you on 60 not being the new 40. As much as I prize keeping in shape, at age 77 there are many things that I cannot do well. I tore my meniscus in 2016 and have chosen to not have surgery but find ways through physical exercise to strengthen what I have. I am my own worst enemy when it comes to fitness, not because I won't exercise; but rather because I don't know when to stop. My solution is to do a lot of Pilates, Yoga and hire an exercise physiologist to guide me. The DVD entitled "Maui Pilates" (about $20) has been a lifesaver. BTW I love your Plato quote.
