I also had a foot massage last night in which some leg and body massage was also included; the (very strong, not to be messed with) lady asked about my age, since my face and body didn't seem to match each other at all. She thought my body was about 35y.o. but the face at least 10y older.

I'm offended. I thought my body was only 20y.o.

Jur,

My grandfather was a pro rider way back in the early 20th century, (about Oppy's era), and he continued cycling as a means of transport and to keep fit, well into middle age. Later, in his 70's and older he would spin on a fixed wheel windtrainer......and yes, his body was like a 20yr old in his 50's, very low fat count indeed.
So your's should be like a 30 yrd old......as you are in your 60's??
