What is Old?

What age do you consider to be old? We posed that question to millennials and asked them to show us what “old” looks like. Then we introduced them to some real “old” people. Watch what happens when folks let go of their outdated beliefs and embrace the idea that aging is not about decline - it’s about growth. #DisruptAging

Take care of yourself. Surround yourself with people you love. This is a great time in our world to be a senior citizen. Enjoy it!!!

I am in my 70s and I do 60 pull ups every day in sets of 10 reducing to 6s also 3 or 4 sets of push ups 20s reducing to 10s .I have been training almost daily since I retired 10 years ago.

This is funny. I am glad that AARP is raising awareness about aging.

Unfortunately, a lot of health clubs and sporting events do not include seniors because their abilities are stereotyped. This certainly exists in the job market too.

GETTING OLD
Here is a story about getting old
One that I think you should be told
First your skin begins to wrinkle
And your eyes soon lose their twinkle
Then arthritis soon begins to set in
That is when the pain starts to begin
Then your back begins to ache
And the pain killers you start to take
Then your memory forgets to recall
Then you start to shrink and get small
Then your hearing begins to fade And now you need a hearing aid
Going to another room something to get
By the time you get there for you forget
Now your tummy turns to blubber
And begins to bounce like rubber
But so as not you cause distress
Everything else I will let you guess
So now that I have you told
Try to avoid getting old.
If you must I ask you, please
Try slipping into it with ease.

If Grandparents were more involved in young folk's lives than this negative view would not exist.

Depends on the person.

Old age is when you stop enjoying the life. This leads you to a state where you don't take care of yourself and do activities which will bring you joy, happiness. And with that, a bad mental health, depression and possibly a shorter lifespan.

Millennials are old, ask Gen Z and beyond, so sick of this ageism.

[@Symbolsysteme]

I want to live till I'm old
But I don't think it can be
Because old is a thing
That could never be me
