I've been reading up on aging lately and how it affects activity level. One consistent theme is the necessity of rest for us as we get older. Recovery takes longer than it did when we were in our 20's and 30's.
One of the things I love about VF is the great older-than-I exerciser! Kudos to the OP for setting a great example of doing what it takes to be well. |

I have a lot of injuries and have found that the best thing for me to do is to keep moving. I've had to gear back my workouts. I am happy, though, that I most recently added DDP Yoga to the mix, which is challenging. It has been great for my back and hip.
I have had horrible bouts of back pain where I've gotten scared and thought I was headed for an MRI and surgery. Gentle movement, persistance, and patience has gotten me through. Jackie |
