    Re: John Elkann replaces Sergio Marchionne...

    I think you are doing more than OK, and are doing eveything right from what you say, awesome Smiley

    Conincidently I do 6 hours a week as well but the opposite spread, I do more weights than cardio since I dont gain muscle easy like you (I'm just maintaining now since I'm at where I want muscle wise) but cardio on the other hand comes easy naturally, I get lots of results with little, unlike weights and muscle. Everybody has to find what works best for them according to each's body type and physiology Smiley

    i try to split evenly between yoga and cardio, with some stretching on top. 60 min a day, weekends 80min/day. i find the worst is when one looses flexibility with age, so i try to counteract with yoga and stretching -and it does work. i see many 30-40 year olds, not overweight people (males), who are much less flexible than me (it suffices to watch people get in and out of a ferrari or GT3RS with buckets and you know where they are flexibility-wise). an issue is though that in young and mid-age sport compensates a lot for calorie intake but when one gets older this does not work anymore due to metabolic slow down. then you need both, exercise and food-intake control. statistical speaking though, sports activity does not manifest itself in longer life-expectancy compared to couch potatoes. if you want to maximize your life span, you need a regular non-stressful and very modest exercise regime (walking an hour a day or so is enough) and strict diet control. sporty people do not die later (statistically), they die 'healthier' though overall speaking:::)) which is already something. 

    actually, i forgot to add that once you get the hang off yoga, it becomes totally addictive:::))) now the first thing i check in a hotel room is whether there is enough space for me to put down my yoga mat:::)))


    Re: John Elkann replaces Sergio Marchionne...

    A lot of people think about how long they are going to live but that is irrelevant compared to the importance of how you get there and your quality of life, I rather live fully active like a 40 year old to 70 and die, than live to 90 but decline from 60 onwards with mobility problems, watching the days pass by like a plant, with pain and suffering, or dementia, etc. taking 10 pills a day, etc.

    Being healthy and able to be active in old age is priceless. I see it everyday how important that is and people don't think about it until they get there and there is not much to do about it then.

    You have to start early with balanced regular exercise and lots activity and a "decent" diet (no need to be too strict if you exercise), this is what will carry you on at that level (to a point) into old age, mentally and physically. And what really matter, if you have the longevity genes too then that is a bonus, but only a bonus if you get there healthy.

    Thanks, Carlos. I understand and agree with the above.

    My workouts amount to around 6hr a week. It’s mainly cardio with some light dumbbell weights and lots mid core. I should mix it up more but visually, considering my age, I must be doing something correct. I tend to gain muscle silly fast, hence why I dropped rowing on my C2, my upper gained too much bulk, for me.

    Yes,,, I would say my diet is balanced with some crap but also with a lot of good stuff. So, going by your theory, It should be okay kiss.. My waist is 31”, Chest ( with hair ) around 42”, I think, weight 78kg’s at 5’10” , I carry quite a bit of muscle mass..

    I do believe with good healthy consumption and minimal exercise one still shouldn’t be over weight. You can even beat middle age spread if your super good with what you put inside yourself. You just have to be more disciplined.

    Cheers kiss..
