Video: How an 81 Year Old Man transformed his life in a year – The importance of exercise – My Comments

[More than 25 years ago, a Boer doctor of mine told me that experiments had been done with old men doing weight training. It was found that weight training had an excellent effect. Of course, if you're older you need to check that what you are doing will be Ok with your current health. But if your doctor gives you the go-ahead, this can be life changing. The biggest problem one faces as you grow older is the loss of muscle. As you lose muscle mass, you begin to suffer from all kinds of problems and it just get's worse. But you can build muscle right up into your 90s. It just becomes slower as you grow older. This little video shows an old guy who looks somewhat like an Asian. But look at what he can do. The Germans are right, you need to WORK and be ACTIVE or else you'll die young. Jan]
