Scooby should do neck training

First, a lot of YouTube “experts” dont seem to realize that I am not their age – I am 60 years old.  People my age have much different priorities and limitations than these 20 something fake natties.

To quote our good friend Helen who lived to be 99, “getting old is hell”

 Every day is a challenge when you are older.  This is something that young folks dont understand.  Its pretty common that my back hurts so bad in the morning that tying my shoes is a challenge.

We old folk cant workout like twenty somethings.  60 year olds do NOT train for aesthetics, our workouts are about health and keeping our bodies fit so we can continue to do the sports we love.  For me, neck training is just about as important as pinky curls.  I have way more important things to focus on just to be able to stay active in sports and everyday life.   I get a big laugh when a twenty something kid on YouTube gets up and starts talking about how great squats is for old people – they are totally clueless.  They cant even tell I am 2-3x their age and yet they think themselves qualified to give 60 year olds workout advice.

If you are older, let me give you some advice.  Do not get ANY advice from YouTube or your personal trainer.  The ONLY person who is qualified to help you is a physical therapist (physiotherapist) working with you one on one.  Read more about why older folks need to be very careful where they get their workout advice from – read fit over 40.
