I started working out at 52, mostly weight training, and made tremendous progress. But I have a hard time defending the habit from incursion by the rest of my life. I've been out for the past couple of weeks because my spouse just had knee surgery and has needed a lot of care. I got quite cranky when she and her mother "helping" meant I did not make a planned trip to the gym on sunday. But part of the problem there is that I have built my exercise around a "go to the gym" habit. I need to do things that don't involve going to the gym, a habit I can work on at home. Habits are the hard part!
