    Now you have me paranoid. I am pretty fit and active, and I certainly have plenty of fat on my body as an energy reserve. It’s 90% cardio though. My weight training is just roughhousing with two kids climbing all over me basically.

    I have never personally placed value on bulking up. My legs are already huge from running/cycling and while my arms are not especially big, they’re wiry and plenty strong enough for my normal needs.

    Do I really need to think about weight training as well? To reiterate: I don’t care about looking like Arnold Schwarzenegger, I just want to be pretty fit and active in my 80’s for future hypothetical grandkids.
