A lot of people in their 50s are in the prime of their careers. Years of hard work have paid off in terms of professional achievement and, with children in college or just finishing high school, they look forward to a rewarding “second act” with disposable income and more well-earned free time.
Health After 50
Unfortunately, it’s also the time in many people’s lives where they find themselves in the worst physical shape they’ve ever been in: career success often comes at a price, and after years of having to juggle work demands with raising a family and maintaining a household, you may realize that you only have a distant memory of what the inside of a gym looks like or what it feels like to be able to run around with your kids or dog and not be exhausted by activities that should be purely fun.If you were in better shape in your youth but think it may be too late to get in shape now, think again! Your 50s are an especially good time to shed extra pounds and to physically build yourself back up. Doing so will not only make you look and feel better; you will also be safeguarding yourself against a loss of mobility that plagues many people beginning as early as their 50s or 60s due to poor diet (which can lead to chronic inflammation and pain) and too little exercise.
