I think a lot of us on here are no longer in the first flush of youth and certainly a few of us have medical conditions that hamper the ability to keep fit and active.

I joined a gym twenty years ago and kept myself active (the younger me would have been very surprised at me doing this) but old age and medical condition has slowed down my take up. I stopped using the gym about a year ago as I felt I was putting too much strain on myself. I can’t do as much as I used to do but I continued to swim and exercise in the pool and recently I’ve started to use the gym in a limited way (one of the trainers I know said that at least I’m doing something. I ‘cycled’ four kilometres today, ‘walked’ a kilometre and a half and did some weights, then swam ten lengths and some pool exercises.

Is there anything you do or recommend to keep active.

Here’s a song that came up on shuffle just before I went in the pool.
