I’m 57 and hit the gym 4 times a week minimum, 2 for weight training and 2 for cardio along with eating pretty low carb.The Army beat me up for 34 years. Required to stay in shape of course. I had a back surgery 22 years ago and it's time for a tune up. I won't be on an electric ladder wrestling patio doors after that for sure.
It’s done wonders for me to be in this routine for years, I encourage everyone to put focus on your physical health now and stick with a plan or routine. It will likely save you a ton of your retirement money from going towards healthcare along with giving you quality of life for much longer.

Losing your mobility sucks. I was never overweight but that gets harder with a sore back and hips.
Weight training is good though I only enjoyed it in phases. Active hobbies was very helpful because I did that almost daily. You can stay fitter than most adults working in the yard and taking the dog for a jog. I see a lot of young adults and dogs that need a jog.
