This is a great thing. I recently turned 50 and started skating and eating better to improve my lifestyle. I went from 280 to 195 and it feels great. Keep it up, look forward to watching you progress.

I think you’re doing great. Making good choices for yourself and your health is really important as we get older. You’re making positive choices about 5 years before I did when I realized I needed to change my diet and get more regular exercise. Keep up the good work. It will be worth the effort, I promise. 👊

Way to go. Self improvement is fun. I’m currently in a bit of a self improvement phase too. Eating better, more skating, lifting weights, doing cardio. I’m on a month long challenge for myself because I’m closing in on a late year vacation of 22 days off work at the end of the challenge and I want to give it a good go before I continue through the vacation to try and get into a routine of good habits. I’m always in and out of these phases but I’m trying to get it to stick for once 😂. Good to have you back!

Habiat jumping is a hard thing to stop isn't it? Like starting something and actually sticking to it - what a pain haha. Self improvement can be fun at times lol, I'm also tryhing to work on my work improvement at the same time so there's that. Sounds like you're going well with your things! 🙌

@Damoforce Man they ripped after two sessions and completely split apart by four sessions. I did as many kickflips as I could each sesh though 🤷🏾‍♂️. I think if I had super glued em first they'd have held up a lot longer.

You got this. You just have to decide to do it. This year I cut out all drinks other than black coffee, brewed tea and water and dropped 20 pounds I. January and 16 more over the next few months. I still have a beer about every 2 weeks. But that's it. I didn't think I could drop 37 hounds at 47. But, it was all in my beverages. The unexpected benefit was that I have saved thousands of dollars this rears by not buying any drinks. Go get after it.

Thanks so much for sharing. Taking care of yourself physically and mentally is so important. My latest video is about my mental health. I wasn’t sure I wanted to even post it but I’m glad I did because the older YT skate community has been so supportive. Putting yourself out there is weird, but now that we know what you’re going through and what you’re trying to do, we can be here to help. We’re here for you. You got this dude. 👊

good luck bro. i'll be 42 in december, been back on board for a little over 2 years now. i'm about the same weight as you, around 213lb/97kg, 6'3/191cm, down from 245lb/111kg. still looking to drop/tighten up a bit. i didn't really change a whole lot as far as diet, just a bit more mindful of when and how much i eat. cut a lot of sugar, drink black coffee. i found dancing or yoga is quite helpful for sciatica. as far as skating, since i basically started from square one, i stick to basics/fundamentals like footwork/pivots/endovers/manuals/pump-carving/slappies i don't do stuff that's too hard on my joints. light, regular exercise is huge. doesn't have to be crazy, just move your body. chin up, you'll get there. cutting alcohol is huge.

I really appreciate the time and input 💕 Mindfulness is a big one I think like you mentioned. Interesting about how dancing can help sciatica? Yoga and foam rolling is given I assume to help it. That's getting frustrating, I just deal with the pain. But thanks again, and sounds like you're smashing it 🥳

I got two sets of swiss super 6. Caps off. Super fast. Wash them a couple times a year with iso. Zero issues. I have a couple sets of the classic swiss that are over twenty years old. Still fast. You buying some chinese knock offs and your set up is probably off.
