    It has been a balance especially as I've gotten older. I find for myself that it is probably about 75-80% diet, and 20-25% exercise. The diet part is making sure that I eat nutritionally balanced foods and not to eat above my TDEE when maintaining. Only way to do this is being consistent with tracking. Strength training and aerobic activity help me to maintain the muscle that I do, keep my bones strong and keep me from huffing and puffing when doing activities with family and friends.

    The exercise is motivating me to keep my food consumption good and clean. It makes me feel great, I mix with like minded people and as well as feeling fitter week on week I'm getting strong.

    I don't find going to the gym a chore I am pissed if I miss it one day though
