    I tell myself every day that I’m not working out for my beach body, I’m working out for my old lady body. I just want to be able to tie my own shoes when I’m 70.

      You’ve got more lofty goals than I do. :)

      I’d just like to extend the years I’m able to go to the bathroom by myself without another human required to help me relieve myself.

        I think there’s a lot of value in just lying down on the floor and getting up like ten times a day. Being unable to get up after a fall is a huge problem for older people.
