A Key Ingredient to Staying Young at Heart: Your diet, ACES fitness, & Active lifestyle are key in defying your age, even over the age of 60. 80% of your age-defying health & Fitness is your DIET high in Protein, Omega-3 & 6 Fats, Probiotic
Since this is Heart Health Month and Valentines this is a great opportunity to talk about your health and especially knowing how to have an Age-Defying Lifestyle.
Eighty percent of your health & Fitness is based on your DIET that should be high in Protein (amino acid), Fiber (soluble), Omega-3 & 6 Fats, Probiotic (for gut and skin health), and Complex Carbohydrates. That includes Fitness Routine that includes Aerobic-Cardio EMOM with Strength exercises.
EMOM– Every Minute on the Minute. That is exercise for one minute without stopping, that is generally 30- reps with a short 20- second rest period.
Before I explain how to look and feel not just years younger, but decades younger, In the feature image I’m 68- years Old. I’m going to share with you what I do to maintain the health and fitness that I had in my mid-30’s.

The Body’s natural Decline of Collagen
By the time you reach your 30’s your body has declined the production of collagen by 6- percent if you don’t take action. By the time you reach your 60’s, your body has a 80- percent decline in collagen for younger looking skin and joints. So what can be done to reverse this decline of aging skin with your age.
BAD NEWS– You can’t do nothing about your age in years; but the GOOD NEWS is you have a tremendous effect on how you age during those years, even to a point reversing the aging process. Reversing the aging process is based on DIET, first and foremost, followed by FITNESS and LIFESTYLE.
First Your DIET–
You need to have a diet as I mentioned that is high in Protein (amino acid), Fiber (soluble), Omega-3 & 6 Fats, Probiotic (for gut and skin health), and Complex Carbohydrates. These are the raw materials your body needs to produce collagen.
Before I list the common foods that help your body manufacture collagen is the category of Probiotics. Beans are a great source of Probiotic, but also sauerkraut for guts health and healthy age-defying skin. Most people have a salad with their meals, I have a helping of sauerkraut. Both beans and sauerkraut are excellent raw materials for your body to produce collagen.
High Protein Foods– fish, poultry, lean meats, eggs, dairy, legumes, and soy. But Beans contain amino acids and copper, which the body needs to produce collagen. I eat Pinto Beans for my lunch and dinner meals.
Vitamin C- Fruit, berries, and bell peppers.
Other sources of Collagen Raw Materials- Leafy greens, garlic, Tomatoes, and bone booth.
I developed Neuropathy (Similar to sciatica) after my bout with Prostate Cancer, I found that yellow mustard, olive oil, and honey helps never restoration. These also as help my skin as well.
Your Body’s Manufacturing and Distribution of Collagen
This is where your fitness is essential to your ability to defy your aging process and even reversing the aging process. I realize that Aerobics and Cardio exercises get the lion share of attention. But please don’t neglect your strength training.
Here’s WHY– When your muscles are working with resistance (whether with resistance tubing, free weights, or Medicine Ball), your muscles release a natural growth hormone that contains the powerful collagen that provides healthy joints, but also age-defying skin. I’ve been working out with weights since I was 12- years old and especially now at age 68.
The collagen not only allows your body to keep replacing your cells that decline with age; but strength training replaces your cells at a faster rate with the distribution of collagen.
Here’s the other benefit of strength training, for every pound of fat you replace with muscle, you’re burning 50- additional calories per day. I lost 52- pounds in 2014, on the SARSO DIET & FITNESS Program, but I replaced that 52- pounds with 15 pounds of muscle. So in addition to my fitness exercise where I burn 520 calories over 60- minutes, I’m burning 50 x 15 = 750 additional calories with my 15 pounds of muscles.
Lifestyle Health
Don’t forget your lifestyle health, while you are still working, develop hobbies and sports where when you retire as I have done at age 57, those hobbies and sports can become your second career. Two of my hobbies are welding and modeling. I can burn rods in my welding shop where hours seem like minutes. This allows you to exercise your subconscious mind as does golf.
This to me is my mental health in addition to my diet and fitness. I produce fitness and golf videos to help people develop a healthy lifestyle to defy their age, even at my age of 68 with The Golfer’s Sync-Preset Zone APP:
