because being this all my life, at a certain age, one can never be that again. i am fit though.... and it has stayed a lifetime. my body still has to move and exercise, i have just adjusted with age. that is the importance to me, that i worked so hard teaching the boys. my oldest gets it now that he has applied himself in his sport, my youngest doesn't quite get it, yet. if at a young age you did exercise/sport and was in top shape, it really tends to stay with a person a lifetime. the body memory. and the need to have that feel.

i have a couple nieces that haven't exercised their entire life, and i think that is sad. i think it will really effect them as they age.

i think there is all kinds of ways we can stay fit. implement it thru out the day, if one doesnt really like to set time aside for exercise.
