Fitness in Your Fifties

"As age increases, body wisdom increases, but basal metabolism and hormones related to muscle building decrease. There is an abundance of wisdom gained from experience but the body is not a responsive to exercise nor does it recover as fast from vigorous workouts. Still, one can live fully and train regularly during the later years by structuring the environment so that goal enhancing behaviors are rewarded."

- Frank Zane, Fabulously Fit Forever Expanded. Zananda, 1993. p. 30
