An excellent article from the University of Texas, my alma mater, features Dr. Dixie Stanforth from the Department of Kinesiology and Health Education. Dr. Stanforth reminds us that loss of muscle mass and lower fitness levels are not the inevitable result of aging. She is working with Fox Sports and the Gatorade Training Council to promote fitness, especially for those who were althletes in high school. The television program is called "Replay", and allows those former high school athletes a chance to relive sports experiences such as high school rivalry games.
It is a great reminder for those of us in our, ahem, thirties that fitness is the result of hard work.
