I walk 20 minutes every day and I am 78. Many ride bikes, go to the gym, lift weights etc. I should add something but what do you all do?

[Rapscallion St Croix]

My knee, the one begging to be replaced, won't let me walk for exercise so I swim lap after lap after lap. Occasionally, I do beer curls.

[Arctic Fox]

Mrs Fox and I swim three times a week at one of the sports pools. Excellent non-weight-bearing exercise, and can do it year-round.

I have regularly done weight lifting since age 15, before I could get a driver's license; age 76 now, various cardio for 45 minutes at a time (elliptical is my favorite but I like using treadmills and recumbent bikes for variety), sometimes walking on a beach to relax, some swimming, yoga/pilates...

[ColdNoMore]

The best exercise a lot of us at this age can do, is to open both palms, keep elbows tucked in while putting them in front of you around waist high and while utilizing equal pressure...push away the dinner plate before it's all shiny on top.

Then using just one hand (alternating for even muscle building)...waving away offers for dessert.

Gracie, dear, I think I told you this, but I forget.

I am a strong proponent of the Joan Rivers exercise regimen: three times a day for thirty minutes each, I have a good, brisk sit.

You are probably my favorite poster.

Plus you eat my peach pie.

The most exercise I get is when we spend the whole day walking a Disney park, chasing employees for pins. My husband is a pin-trading addict. I've learned to take ibuprofen about 1pm so I can make it the rest of the day!

I would like that. Morning or evening?

I think you should add water aerobics to the list.

It's low impact and good for your cardio-vasular system.

Lifting weights, (light), would be good to maintain strength.

My husband and I walk 4 miles everyday. We golf 4 times a week and walk the courses. We also do stretching and exercises in the morning.

[jojo]

I do tennis 4 times a week, golf twice, and usually do 3 or 4 fitness classes a week - interval training at Colony, zumba, yoga, and water aerobics at Seabreeze. I also do the morning dog walk. Hubby does evening although sometimes we do it together. I enjoy being active and it is so easy in The Villages. We are fortunate to have great instructors.

We go to MVP at Brownwood 3 days a day, Mon-Wed-Fri. My wife will do a 60 minute Zumba class and I will lift weights for about 20 minutes and then 30 minutes on a treadmill and 30 minutes on a stationary bike. I'll also play 18 holes of golf on Friday. I did play softball on Saturday mornings for five years but had to give that up since I've developed some health issues that keep me from being able to run.

Champ golf in am, 5 miles a day, so four park Disney day is a no brainer. Yoga daily for balance, swim laps when the air is warm.
