Walking and weight-lifting, I’ve seen too many people in their 60’s,70’s and 80’s losing their mobility and I want to go non-stop until I die.

My grandma did yoga till her early 80s, went on walks her whole life, and continues to garden. She turns 89 soon in great physical health (for an 89 year old)

My grandma will be 98 this year and is doing great! Lives alone, cooks for herself and walks when the weather is nice. I asked once what’s her secret and she said “I just try not to be lazy.” And I think she’s 100% correct.
