A good idea, but maybehave some real retirees vet it, because I'm not there yet, but have found out that things I never saw coming, become troublesome when very common things like carpal tunnel, rotatorcuff issues, and arthritis set in. Churning butter would be right there with tennis and fencing, for aggravating these issues, and tango is dramatic and fun but those deep movements are very challenging to anyone with back or knee issues which is most everyone by middle age.
Would love to hear what the retirees on the forums suggest?
Read my posts. I’ve been mostly retired for two years. I just did a 5 hour music rehearsal and have a concert tomorrow. Retired people are still pretty active for years before feebleness sets in. I know people who have done all of the things I listed. Yes, health issues have to be managed, but you don’t just suddenly go from working full time to a wheelchair. There’s a nice, active in between.
