The topic for the elderly is gone, so I created it again.

I am a late senior citizen and have been participating in this vivinavi since

2014 when Mr. Cobalt was the broadest member, but there seem to be many elderly people here

and I hope to have a blooming conversation about health and any topic of retirement life.

> I am going to LA Fitness today.

LA Fitness is free with my Medicare Advantage insurance.
I don't take classes, but I have my own set of stairs, sauna, and pool.

Boomer,

> LA Fitness is free with Medicare Advantage insurance

I see. Mine is Medicare in connection with Kaiser, so it doesn't appear to have that score.
Kaiser seems to have their own, but it didn't seem to have as much content as LA Fitness
I pay for it out of my own pocket.

LA Fitness' senior classes seem to be run by an organization called Senior Sneakers.


And the term "senior citizen", as you say, that age designation is probably up now.

I have also heard that the "late elderly" that I am part of are those over 75, but I take advantage of that

and use it proudly to say that I am so healthy even though I am "late elderly".

> Even at LA Fitness, some facilities are available and some are not

At the LA Fitness I go to, Kaiser members do not receive any benefits.


The day when US citizens can travel to Japan seems to be approaching, and I walked a little longer yesterday with a 12 lbs weighted vest on my back so that I would not be exhausted after walking all day long on the roads of Shikoku. In Shikoku, I sometimes walk 25 to 30 kilometers every day with a backpack that weighs more than 5 kilograms, including crossing mountain passes. Some young people who specialize in camping out walk more than 40 kilometers a day with a backpack weighing more than 40 kilograms, including camping gear.

Yesterday I walked 11.3km with a difference in elevation of 257m

I cannot walk every day, but I will increase my daily walking distance little by little until I get to Japan. Eventually, I will have to walk more than 25km several times with my backpack, which I will carry as a travel bag, with more than 5Kg of "weight" and a lunch box, in order to actually go to Japan.
