Study: exercise keeps you young

"Who is likely to be fitter: a lazy 20-year-old or an active 50-year-old? New research from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology's K.G. Jebsen Center of Exercise in Medicine provides statistical evidence that the 50-year-old can be every bit as fit as someone 30 years younger. But exercise -- how much, and how intense -- is the key, say K.G. Jebsen Center researchers."

Thanks for sharing this. Very encouraging! I'm way more active at 50 than I was at 20! :D

Me too. I was so soft and lazy when I was 20. I got on a bike and rode less than a mile before I had to quit. wah wah wah. (and that was the last time i rode for over 10 years)
