for those over 35 - how many of you worry about health issues killing you - GoFuckYourself.com

SleazyDream · 11-12-2009, 01:20 AM

i'm 37 now.

and I'm terribly out of shape in the last two years.

it's starting to sink in that this might kill me.

how many others are having or had revelations like that?

WWC · 11-12-2009, 01:23 AM

I just did a 2 hour hike up the mountain :-) feels great!

fuzzylogic · 11-12-2009, 01:24 AM

I do but I am 32. I started doing 30 pushups and 250 abs per day last year. About 5 months ago I started walking 2.3 miles a day and a month ago upped it to 5.

Today on my walk I accidentally walked into a military-style bootcamp at a local park. I partook in a few exercises from encouragement from the girls. I raced her while we both dragged a tire. She won and I was spent.

Gonna head back tomorrow

fuzzylogic · 11-12-2009, 01:25 AM

Health is 1/3 exercise, 1/3 diet and 1/3 positive mindset.

sex69 · 11-12-2009, 01:28 AM

Start working out, walking, hiking, whatever activity you like, you will feel better.

Brujah · 11-12-2009, 01:29 AM

how long do you really want to live?

Zorgman · 11-12-2009, 01:39 AM

I walk everyday, at least 5km, sometimes 7km if I feel good.
I was 140kg, im now 112kg. That's just walking, my diet has not changed. Im sure I could get more weight off if I changed my diet. :D

quiet · 11-12-2009, 01:47 AM

i think it's in the back of everyone's minds once they hit their mid-thirties. i snowboard pretty much everyday in the winters, downhill bike everyday (for sure) in the summers, but i have to admit my hiking in the off season (fall and spring), has fallen off a bit in the last couple of years. i end up traveling out of country in the off seasons in whis, and that leads to eating more, drinking more, and other than swimming a fair bit, not the best for your body. i'm actually almost at my target weight, 190 again (currently 201 lbs, i'm 6'3.5"), so pretty happy overall. we're all going to die, i just don't want to die a miserable death.

After Shock Media · 11-12-2009, 01:50 AM

I do not.
I do not really worry about death. I just worry about how it will effect those around me. If I knew for sure that they would not only be 100% OK, but actually be happy soon and prosper, hopefully without having to be that sad for any period of time. I would have zero thoughts about death at all.

In the meantime I work my ass off to ensure as much is setup as possible for my wife. I work for her and her retirement. It also explains how I can be so content with being frugal with myself, but never on her although she is naturally frugal too. People of course have teased me for using coupons, hustling my ass off, taking almost any job if I had time to complete it, recycling, and all of that. For myself though every penny saved or earned is more money for her future when I am gone.

d-null · 11-12-2009, 01:53 AM

I think about it from time to time, I am pretty healthy and fit though, but I know that we all are going to die sometime, and that is a strange thought, that it is likely that someday sooner or later that some health problem will come along and be too much for the body to handle and we will die from it..... it is a strange thought when you think about it, the concept of getting sick and dying

SleazyDream · 11-12-2009, 01:55 AM

i need to work out more. i used to a LOT - let it fall off

CunningStunt · 11-12-2009, 01:55 AM

i'm about the same height as you - the lightest I've ever been as an adult was 187 at about 19- I was dieting like crazy and working out TONS. I was an absolute RAIL and was actually passing out from being too thin.

the weight I felt the best at was 220. benching about 300-350lbs...

i'm WAY over weight now and massivly out of shape

CunningStunt · 11-12-2009, 02:09 AM

Keep it to red wine, and you should be ok.

Seriously though, yes. Hit 40 this year. Feel absolutely knackered half the time, especially after a big session drinking the night before.

Luckily I live near the beach, so I can swim regularly, and you'd be surprised how tiring a 2 year old child can be.

Just try and get out for at least half an hour's brisk walk everyday, and eat better, that should add 5 years to your life.

Only 75?

Heck I would think most men should make it to 75 and then some. I know the average mortality rate is just under 75 for men but that would be assuming we make no advances between today and say the next 30 years. I figure by the time most reach their 50's to 60's we should have a life expectancy at around 85 to 90 for men, if not longer. We are pretty close to some of the genes that seem to control cell regeneration among other aspects.

what you need to do is this (just take it for what it is): eat waaaaaay more veggies, cut out the fat and salt, and get out there every single day. just go for a walk. the snow up there will make it more of a work out trudging along. the thing is, you need to do it every day. throw on a toque. mitts, heavy jacket, and just walk. set a time to do it, and... just do it. everyday. if you have an ipod, put it on, audio book or music. if you don't, just make it your think time. i know i sound like a fag, but it's true. small things like that make a huge difference. the problem is doing it every day, and finding a reason to enjoy it.

well, all of us reading this thread will most likely die, but a child born today (many believe) will live at least 150 years, and I'm pretty sure that a child born 150 years from now most probably won't die at all

to most of us this might sound like science fiction, but it isn't: we moved from 25 years average lifespan to 70 or whatever it is now, and one single medical anti-aging break-through will give make us immortal

aubreythree · 11-12-2009, 02:48 AM

How To Prevent Getting Old?
New research is revealing again and again new secrets to live longer, and look better. We often here about out faith being linked to genes we inherit from our parents. However, this is only part of the influence. Experts now say that about 70% of factors influencing out good health, and good looks depends on our own good choices, not just good genes.

Based on good research findings, here are the anti-aging secretes which will help you looks younger without going under the knife.

To begin with, have you ever heard of the advice stay the weight you were at 18 we are sure you must have. Walter Willett, MD, chair of the department of nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health says Maintaining your weight is the most important thing we can do to stay healthy and live longer.

Fat cells actually produce hormones that raise the risk of type 2 diabetes, and also make sub-stances called cytokines that cause inflammation, hardening the arteries and the heart and other organs. Carrying excess fat also raises the risk of some cancers.

The experts have marked wide range of weights to be healthy (between 110 and 140 pounds for a 5-foot-4 woman), partly because body frames vary tremendously. So to maintain the weight that's right for you, Willett suggests you periodically try to slip into the dress you wore to your high school prom assuming, that you were a healthy weight at that age. If not, aim for a body mass index of about 23.5. BMI above 25 means you are overweight. However for people who are muscular rather then fat should not go by then BMI index.

Secondly, Skip one meal a day. Some people might tell you to eat every 2 hours, but guess what even going long hours without food has its benefits. Going long hours without food can truly have dramatic results for how to look younger. Rats fed 30% less than normal live 30% longer than usual, and in a recent study at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, the hearts of the leaner human calorie-cutters appeared 10 to 15 years younger than those of regular eaters.

Other research showed that calorie restriction improves blood insulin levels and showed fewer signs of damage to the DNA. Eating less food, scientists believe, may reduce tissue wear and tear from excess blood sugar, inflammation, or rogue molecules known as free radicals.

Experts know this has real benefits and they live by it. Mattson, chief of the laboratory of neurosciences at the National Institute on Aging, has done without breakfast for 20 years. Calabrese, a professor of toxicology and environmental health sciences at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, deserted the midday meal.

You dont need to cut calories. You only need to go long hours without food. Imagine, if you dont consume anything after dinner, and if you sleep for 8 hours, and then you can skip your breakfast and wait until lunch to eat, that can add up to almost 15 hours that you have gone without food. you'll naturally consume less that day. Or try fasting one day a week. Just drink plenty of water.

Thirdly, Taking necessary supplements is what Bruce N. Ames, PhD, a professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at the University of California, Berkeley advocates and lives by: he takes daily 800 mg of alpha-lipoic acid and 2,000 mg of acetyl-L-carnitine. He says in this amount, the chemicals boost the energy output of mitochondria, which power our cells. "I think mitochondrial decay is a major factor in aging," Ames says. Research shows that it's been linked to diseases such as Alzheimer's and diabetes.

In his studies, elderly rats plied with the supplements had more energy and ran mazes better. "If you're an old rat, you can be enthusiastic," Ames says. "As people, we can't be sure until clinical trials are done." (They're under way.) But the compounds look very safe the worst side effect documented in humans is a rash, Ames says and the data in animals looks really convincing, says S. Mitchell Harman, MD, PhD, president of the Kronos Longevity Research Institute in Phoenix.

Fourthly, Owning a pet reduces the number of visits to the doctor, prolongs survival after a heart attack, and wards off depression, says James Serpell, PhD, director of the Center for the Interaction of Animals and Society at the University of Pennsylvania. His family has a cat, a dog, a large green iguana, a bearded dragon, and a dozen fish.

Owning a pet also protects against a major problem of aging such as high blood pressure. In one standout study at State University of New York, Buffalo, stockbrokers with high blood pressure adopted a pet. When they were faced with mental stress, their BP increased less than half as much as in their counterparts without animal pals.

Fifthly, Gardening or being around plants has its advantages. Patients who had a view of trees as they recovered from surgery left the hospital almost a day sooner than those with a view of a brick wall. In another study, blood pressure jumped in workers given a stressful task, but rose only a quarter as much if there were plants in the room.

Furthermore, eating different colors of fruits and vegetables is very important. To look younger, and stay healthy aim for nine to ten servings of fruits and vegetables each day.

Taking care of your eyes is very important also. Getting plenty of omega-3s in food or supplements may help ward off age-related macular degeneration. Plant antioxidants such as lutein and zeaxanthin (found in leafy green vegetables like kale and collards) are also helpful.

Moreover, Studies suggest that the antioxidant-rich extract of the South American fern Polypodium leucotomos may help keep your skin youthful by protecting against free radicals and reducing inflammation.

Lastly, High-glycemic foods, rich in quick-digesting carbohydrates, can cause blood sugar spikes and crashes and contribute to overeating and diabetes risk, which accelerates the aging process. Avoid those sugary drinks and French fries.

mikesinner · 11-12-2009, 03:54 AM

I've been feeling like I'm dieing for a few years now. Sort of think I have some sort of clot in my chest. I think I could go under soon.

I keep planning on setting up a doctors appointment but I haven't yet.

v4 media · 11-12-2009, 03:55 AM

I eat extremely healthy, meat once a week, rest of week veggies and blue fish, all fresh and home cooked by me. Nothing out of a can, packet.
I walk or bike everywhere, but I don't really go out much, I need to get a spare hour a day to do some walking or biking every day. Usually it's about 3 times a week.

tried a gym. fuck me that was terrible, other people sweating and grunting everywhere and macho bollocks.

I need to reduce my only vice.... beer.

Dirty Dane · 11-12-2009, 03:58 AM

The older you get - the sooner you'll die. Don't worry, that's normal.

I do find that eating plain oatmeal everyday with fruit in it helps.

Also I have started to keep a pair of dumbbells next to my computer.

Also use extra virgin olive oil when you cook. Don't forget about health benefits of kombucha, green tea and aloe vera juice.

mikesinner · 11-12-2009, 04:09 AM

I've been doing military presses with my dumbbells and then switching to curls and back to presses. It's the only way to get my heart rate up while using weights.

Still, I know I need to see a doctor.

Huggles · 11-12-2009, 10:34 AM

I'm 31, I'm lean, my cock gets hard for hours, I am sexy, my body makes me feel like I'm 18, and I've got almost all of my hair still!

I think the biggest thing I've noticed due to age is a loss of hearing. I blame listening to loud music and working construction when I was younger.

Twistys Tim · 11-12-2009, 10:41 AM

37 here. I never worry about anything really, least of all dying (seems like a waste of time worrying about something that is inevitable).

I quit smoking recently. I had smoked since I was 15, and the constant pain I was getting in my ear from my wife nagging me about smoking was too much for me to handle -- so I quit cold turkey.

We often here about out faith being linked to genes we inherit from our parents. However, this is only part of the influence. Experts now say that about 70% of factors influencing out good health, and good looks depends on our own good choices, not just good genes. Based on good research findings, here are the anti-aging secretes which will help you looks younger without going under the knife. To begin with, have you ever heard of the advice stay the weight you were at 18 we are sure you must have. Walter Willett, MD, chair of the department of nutrition at the Harvard School of Public Health says Maintaining your weight is the most important thing we can do to stay healthy and live longer. Fat cells actually produce hormones that raise the risk of type 2 diabetes, and also make sub-stances called cytokines that cause inflammation, hardening the arteries and the heart and other organs. Carrying excess fat also raises the risk of some cancers. The experts have marked wide range of weights to be healthy (between 110 and 140 pounds for a 5-foot-4 woman), partly because body frames vary tremendously. So to maintain the weight that's right for you, Willett suggests you periodically try to slip into the dress you wore to your high school prom assuming, that you were a healthy weight at that age. If not, aim for a body mass index of about 23.5. BMI above 25 means you are overweight. However for people who are muscular rather then fat should not go by then BMI index. Secondly, Skip one meal a day. Some people might tell you to eat every 2 hours, but guess what even going long hours without food has its benefits. Going long hours without food can truly have dramatic results for how to look younger. Rats fed 30% less than normal live 30% longer than usual, and in a recent study at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, the hearts of the leaner human calorie-cutters appeared 10 to 15 years younger than those of regular eaters. Other research showed that calorie restriction improves blood insulin levels and showed fewer signs of damage to the DNA. Eating less food, scientists believe, may reduce tissue wear and tear from excess blood sugar, inflammation, or rogue molecules known as free radicals. Experts know this has real benefits and they live by it. Mattson, chief of the laboratory of neurosciences at the National Institute on Aging, has done without breakfast for 20 years. Calabrese, a professor of toxicology and environmental health sciences at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, deserted the midday meal. You dont need to cut calories. You only need to go long hours without food. Imagine, if you dont consume anything after dinner, and if you sleep for 8 hours, and then you can skip your breakfast and wait until lunch to eat, that can add up to almost 15 hours that you have gone without food. you'll naturally consume less that day. Or try fasting one day a week. Just drink plenty of water. Thirdly, Taking necessary supplements is what Bruce N. Ames, PhD, a professor of biochemistry and molecular biology at the University of California, Berkeley advocates and lives by: he takes daily 800 mg of alpha-lipoic acid and 2,000 mg of acetyl-L-carnitine. He says in this amount, the chemicals boost the energy output of mitochondria, which power our cells. "I think mitochondrial decay is a major factor in aging," Ames says. Research shows that it's been linked to diseases such as Alzheimer's and diabetes. In his studies, elderly rats plied with the supplements had more energy and ran mazes better. "If you're an old rat, you can be enthusiastic," Ames says. "As people, we can't be sure until clinical trials are done." (They're under way.) But the compounds look very safe the worst side effect documented in humans is a rash, Ames says and the data in animals looks really convincing, says S. Mitchell Harman, MD, PhD, president of the Kronos Longevity Research Institute in Phoenix. Fourthly, Owning a pet reduces the number of visits to the doctor, prolongs survival after a heart attack, and wards off depression, says James Serpell, PhD, director of the Center for the Interaction of Animals and Society at the University of Pennsylvania. His family has a cat, a dog, a large green iguana, a bearded dragon, and a dozen fish. Owning a pet also protects against a major problem of aging such as high blood pressure. In one standout study at State University of New York, Buffalo, stockbrokers with high blood pressure adopted a pet. When they were faced with mental stress, their BP increased less than half as much as in their counterparts without animal pals. Fifthly, Gardening or being around plants has its advantages. Patients who had a view of trees as they recovered from surgery left the hospital almost a day sooner than those with a view of a brick wall. In another study, blood pressure jumped in workers given a stressful task, but rose only a quarter as much if there were plants in the room. Furthermore, eating different colors of fruits and vegetables is very important. To look younger, and stay healthy aim for nine to ten servings of fruits and vegetables each day. Taking care of your eyes is very important also. Getting plenty of omega-3s in food or supplements may help ward off age-related macular degeneration. Plant antioxidants such as lutein and zeaxanthin (found in leafy green vegetables like kale and collards) are also helpful. Moreover, Studies suggest that the antioxidant-rich extract of the South American fern Polypodium leucotomos may help keep your skin youthful by protecting against free radicals and reducing inflammation. Lastly, High-glycemic foods, rich in quick-digesting carbohydrates, can cause blood sugar spikes and crashes and contribute to overeating and diabetes risk, which accelerates the aging process. Avoid those sugary drinks and French fries.

Also I have started to keep a pair of dumbbells next to my computer. __________________ My Best Sponsors MPl l Camsl CUMSHOTSl LESBIANSl FETISHl BJ RACESl TEEN BJl BSDMl VODl USE YOUR PC TO CURE CANCER

It's the only way to get my heart rate up while using weights. Still, I know I need to see a doctor. __________________ My Best Sponsors MPl l Camsl CUMSHOTSl LESBIANSl FETISHl BJ RACESl TEEN BJl BSDMl VODl USE YOUR PC TO CURE CANCER

In our line of work we sit on our asses a lot so if you don't take care of yourself and get some sort of activity you WILL indeed die at a young age... __________________
