Yep-I’ve heard that one’s muscle to fat ratio is key for keeping the metabolism up. So, in addition to pushing the wrong diet through the messed up food pyramid, the huge push towards aerobic instead of anaerobic workouts have made people struggle with their weight.

Pilates in middle age slimmed me more than the miles and miles I ran when in high school and college.

Yup.

I'm in my 50’s and have the same lean, muscular bod I had in my 20’s.people think I don't eat but I eat enough and get lots of produce and meat. Dairy I don't care for unless It's cheese or yogurt. I get calcium through pills. I do walk as I have an energetic lab. But you see the same people busting it out on the treadmills that seem to stay fay as ever
