Fitness Over 50

I am 52 and I see it everyday. It doesn’t matter where I am, I see it. I saw it at the gym today.

I don’t when it happens. I don’t know why it happens. But it happens!

I am referring to people, men and women, who at a certain time in life seem to lose interest in how they look. Basically, they let their appearance go to hell in a basket. Why do they do that?

When I started this blog, I was only thinking of health and fitness. So I was going to blog only about exercise and diet. But not anymore. Just because you are in the middle innings doesn’t mean you should not look sharp all the time. So as time goes by I am going to post on personal grooming and clothing.

With regards to clothing, I am not a fashion expert, but I do know what looks like hell. I also know what looks good. When I see it, I appreciate it. Unfortunately, I see a lot of people over 50 who look like hell. Bad grooming. Bad out of date clothing. Just awful.

Now really, just because you are over 50 does not mean you can’t look great. I find some of the sexiest women are over 50. A well groomed and well dressed man looks inspiring and exudes confidence. These people know how to dress. They know how to groom themselves and they know what hair styles work for them.

So, in this post I am going to cover some male grooming. Body hair on men. What are a lot of you guys thinking. Nose hairs, hair out of the ears, ultra bushy eyebrows, etc. Some guys look like flipping gorillas. Attractive, I think not! I’m pretty sure its a turn off for your wife and god help you if you are dating.

Guys, if you want to look better and much younger, you need to control the hair. It isn’t hard. There is simply no excuse for having hair a few inches long growing out of your nose and ears. Trim it. Here is a short clip showing how to trim nose hair.

For the guys, trimming nose and ear hair will make you look younger cleaner. Trimming your eyebrows will take years off of your appearance. As far as I am concerned, there is only one place on your head where you want a lot of hair. On the top!

Now ladies, for those of you who are giggling at this post, your turn will be coming and it will be a dozy. Something about old out of date jeans with waists so high they cover your neck. But that’s for another post.

I hope this post doesn’t come across as condescending or too critical. I just strongly feel that everyone over 50 should look and feel great. Life and enjoyment doesn’t end at 50.
