Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports!

Kathleen, you are amazing and continually pushing your limits. Thank you for being an example of what a strong, healthy lady should strive for as she moves thru life. Looking forward to the day we have a dozen people older than you. Wait we only need 11 because Rick is older.

Yes, and I look forward to the day that our "212 Team" has more 50+ year olds working to get healthier! Yea! :)
Ryland, you really push us hard, but I know I'm getting better because of it. Thank you.
