It declines every year. I laughed at the commercials where the woman falls and cries out, "I've fallen and I can't get up!" But it's no joke, she can't get up because she's lost so much muscle. If I were you, I'd be getting as much done now, in your 50's, because in 10 years your ability will be cut in half. Make a bucket list and do the hard ones first. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Not sure where that line is. But the line from old to finally losing it is when you think the nurse is leaning in close for a kiss when she's just trying to get your bag o' bones out of bed for your daily stumble around the nursing home corridor. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Saw a video that said the 3 things that will get you thrown into a nursing home are any combo of these: Falling down a lot Incontinence Failing memory Get two of these and you're a goner. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Before laughing at that, everyone should lie flat on the floor and then get up. Unless you are indisputable young, even if you find it no problem, you still probably notice that there is a certain point at which you exert some strength to get it done. Evidently this "point" just keeps getting to be a bigger and bigger part of the exercise as you get older. I'm happy to say I pass this test easily. However, doing it had me hone the technique a bit, whereas in days of yore I didn't give technique a thought. I'm Still Standing, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah [it's an old guy chant for me] |

| ams288 Member since: Apr 21, 2016 Threads: 29 Posts: 12517 | I always laugh at those life alert "I've fallen and I can't get up!" commercials. Not because the premise is inherently funny, but the acting by the old person on the floor is always so bad. A straight man will not go for kids. - AZDuffman |
