[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People also forget that the current generation of 80 and 90 yos did not have the knowledge about nutrition and exercise that we have today. How many 90 yo women did strength training when they were younger? It wasn't a thing so of course, they;re now filling up nursing homes. [/quote] I think that being healthy helps, but don’t count on it being enough to save you. More likely it means that you’ll be incapacitated later in life - so needing help during ages 90-95 rather than ages 80-85, or something like that. Some of my older relatives really did have fabulous fitness regiments in their youth, but it still didn’t save them from dementia in the end.
