    I do, however, sweat like a pig.

    My family calls this our high efficiency cooling system. As I type this I'm dripping all over my keyboard.

    It definitely gets easier! I'm 43 and whilst I feel my age after a long day in the office, or when the kids are being hard work, when I'm exercising I have the energy of a 20-something!

    Yep! It seems to be genetic too--everyone in my father's family sweats buckets.

    Depends on how steep the hill is and if I'm being chased.

    41 and loving my workouts... Just started again 2 weeks ago and already down 14 lbs. This app is awesome!! Controlled breathing is key for me. Breathing through the nose... deep breaths ;-)

    I love my workouts, too. I have Zumba on Wii and after 20 minutes I'm drenched in sweat and I feel a lot better for having got off my lazy butt and danced.
