I've never been to a gym where they have a class called "silver sneakers." Seriously, I'd rather die. When I went to sign up at this place, it was around 4:30 in the afternoon and there was a core/strength class going on, that's a bit less intensive than the one I've been doing. It was all older women, but they *looked* old. I can't go at that time, anyway, but I guess I'm one of those people who is just like in the song; I think I'll die before I get old.
Rest day tomorrow; usually I would go to the strength class, but there was so much of that in the step class today, I've had 2 days in a row of weights and no rest. And, I rode yesterday, too.
ah crankin,past the age of 25 or so being young and perky, nobody save the the diva queen of the gym looks good or young if they are truely working out. Then there is the "getting older exercise induced rhinitis" that affects all of us.

Getting old is not for cowards.
