[quote=Anonymous]I mean it just depends. Knee issues, for example, you might not be able to do much about and I’d imagine being really active younger might actually increase your chances of needing a knee replacement (like distance running). Same with lower back issues, arthritic changes and disc degeneration you may only have limited control over. Both my mom and my in-laws are very early 80s and have slowed down a lot with different kinds of mobility issues for different reasons despite all being thin and having long had an exercise routine. Obviously being at a normal weight, and staying active is on average going to benefit you but all kinds of issues crop up. I’m early 50s and I’m hoping to stay active but I have some foot issues that cause me pain and concern me in terms of my future mobility. It’s painful and it’s not something where exercise is going to make a difference. So, I hope for the best but you just never know.[/quote]
