I am 51 which is not ancient by any means but I’m no spring chicken either.  Today, I ran, walked and I was planning on doing a Les Mills Body Combat workout when I stopped myself to remind myself that I am not as resilient as I used to be.  I get tired easier, my joints ache the day after a workout and things I used to do like spending all day outside working in the garden in the sun cannot happen.  I just can’t act the same because I’m not the same.  I want to do the workout but what if I hurt myself because I’m doing a two a day for no other reason than I feel like it.  That isn’t good nor smart discipline so I am not going to do it despite wanting to.  This is called maturity folks and besides that ….no one in the world cares if I’m 10 lbs lighter or not.  Act your age they say so here I am acting my age even though I’m not happy about it, I’ll do it.
