Why not do both; fun and fitness? I look around me and see a lot of old and not so old not having any fun what so ever. Matter of fact I know some who are either in pain, or have lost so much of their active brain that they are barely functional. I had a painful lifestyle until my late teens when new drugs became available.

I'll do both having been there. At 69 and after 40 years of heavy duty activity, it's been working very well on both accounts.
