Great idea - I’m 66 and never been into fitness until I had both of my knees replaced two years ago and beat prostate cancer (so far) 8 years ago. Been hitting the gym six days a week pre-dawn and having a quick coffee with pals before 7:00 mass to start the day and feeling healthy.

Definitely need help on nutrition, fashion, and mixing up my gym routines!

What an inspiring routine!! 7am mass is incredible.

Gee, not really - I do think it’s helped me rebound from a lot and reminds me daily of inspiring and wonderful people in my life

Looking forward to read your stuff !

I’m on the other side of the journey tho .. turning 60, fit , and not terrified of dr appointments ! So I totally relate to your story

Surrounded by my contemporaries who are getting sicker and sicker I’m glad I stuck with the gym and not eating like an a%*hole !

Good stuff. I have a love for fitness being a former UOregon Strength and Fitness coach who has moved into the marketing space/ everyday remote work trope and love seeing "non-pretentious" fitness content. I marry my own blog with my love for food with this. Take a look if you have a minute, would mean a lot. Sub'd

Hey I just subscribed to your newsletter. I think your story is pretty inspiring... I just started playing football last year which is unusual for a 20 year old. Most of the people I play with started started at the age of 7-12 or even younger. I made quiet good progress in the beginning but now I'm already out for over a month and will miss the whole prep for the next season. I have Morbus Osgood Schlatter which makes my knee suffer, but there is a way to come back. I just have to strengthen and stretch every muscle and tendon in my knee area. Why am I telling you all this? I just wanted to share my story with you because I also have started a newsletter that is about similar topics. I write about health, nutrition and working out. Maybe we could support each other. Definitely going to set your Newsletter as one of my recommendations. Hope you keep going and achieve the goals you have here on Substack!
