As we grow older, more concerns pop up about our fitness, health, and longevity. While these are valid concerns and something that we’re all going to confront at some point, they can sometimes be isolating. 

We think we’re the only way having these concerns, and it makes us feel lonely. Well, I’ve been conducting research with Man Flow Yoga Members in their 50s, 60s, and 70s about their fitness concerns as they grow older… 

And you know what? 

80% of the answers were the exact same!
