"We do not stop exercising because we grow old; we grow old because we stop exercising." - Dr. Kenneth Cooper
Part of my motivation to exercise comes from wanting to put off the inevitable, delaying the eventual inability to do physical activities that I currently take for granted. I remember my Grandmother taking forever (for-e-ver!) to get out of her Buick. She couldn't ride bikes and by 80, she couldn't climb stairs. I refuse to be that woman. Or at least I refuse to go down without a fight.
One thing I try to remember is that it is so much easier to maintain fitness than to build it back up from scratch. Stay active and stay young.
