[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the best things about exercising, particularly cardio combined with regularly strength training, is that IMO, it is a really great way to maintain a fit, young looking body.  When I was in my 20s I regularly took a daily bootcamp class, and I was always blown away at how fit looking some of the other people in the class were, even though they were in their 40s and 50s.  The instructor was in his 60s and he was in amazing shape.  He could run under a 7 minute mile, and had a totally fit body including a sixpack! That being said, there are still plenty of fit older people who still look their age because they spent too much time in the sun and have lots of age spots, sun damage and the standard wrinkles of a person their age.

[b]Even people who take meticulous care of their skin and who get plastic surgery don't actually look younger than they are, they just look like a person their age who had plastic surgery or other work done.[/b] :-) [/quote]

Yeah.  I'm a balding guy in my 50s, and I really don't get the obsession with looking younger.  I have very low body fat and I'm more muscular and stronger than at any other time in my life (set a new squat PR yesterday) so I don't FEEL old, but I don't mind looking my age.  Why do people care?

Hi balding guy in your 50s. Are you also attracted to healthy, fit 50 yo women who show their age ? (Ie clean natural face with the wrinkles and grey hair ?). Or you lprefer 40 yo women ? [/quote]

This was my post in 2019 that PP responded to.   To belatedly answer, I’ve been married for over 25 years, so the question of which women I’m attracted to isn’t something I spend much mental energy on.  If I were single, I would certainly not be likely to be into someone who felt the need for plastic surgery or Botox - those things just seem icky to me.  Of course, I’m likely too frumpy for a woman who was that concerned  about seeming youthful, so it would likely not come up. [/quote]
