Not massively. Im quite fit though so even though ive had medical issues since 53 im still able to cycle 20 plus miles of hilly terrain with relative ease. My VO2 max lung capacity is on parr with people in thier 30s.

@Perry1968 That's definitely something to be proud of. My grandfather was like that. He could spin around on a horizontal bar at age seventy.

@AnnaWasHere They say strength is the last thing to go. His career clearly kept him physically strong. I do know keeping our legs strong helps. Hence why i cycle and walk when possible.
