My 80th birthday was celebrated this past April.

What a great idea to exercise via zoom. Thanks for that tip. And you’re right, one can certainly get a lot of movement, exercise, and steps taking care of the house and the environment around one. Go for it.

Thanks for letting me in on your age. The older I get the more I push the "over the hill" age...LOL
I am over 85, and I thought that would be "slow down, danger ahead zone" Not so. It will hit me I am sure, one of these days. Meanwhile, I do NOT exercise everyday, but seem to get away with my two or three times a week. I am in physical Therapy a couple times a week. As my body breaks down, I keep adding PT. The facility is not around the corner, so I would like it to end! If my PT and Zoom class is on the same day, it does tire me out a little more. I have a sleep problem, so I do get tired, but never sleepy. Strange, I know...(long story) It took about three years of "regular" exercise before I could feel and see a BIG daily difference. The nice thing is I can eat like a pig and still stay same the same weight. Less bread, more activity.
