Somehow this is my 11th year !!  Fitness is a funny and fickle beast.  I was 44 and in average shape.  I mean I was jogging and doing the normal strength training routine and even running the sporadic marathon.  I still didn't feel great physically.   Enter - Crossfit.. Crossfitting consistently teaches you something very important - It's all about connective tissue - especially as you age.  Muscle responds to activity/stress rather quickly but that connective tissue (all those ligaments and tendons) respond slowly.  If you don't use them on a consistent basis, they lose elasticity, etc. and this ends in injury one way or another. Crossfit stresses that connective tissue consistently creating bodies that are very durable especially as father time ticks by.   My wife Anna and I and our two kiddos, Hawk (8) and Blaze (6) live it.  The little ones are constantly in the gym with us seeing how important it is to work hard and suffer with others.  It builds  camaraderie that is hard to match - we are a family that takes care of one another.   I like the saying "Crossfit is Life".  I'm almost 54 with two little kids.  I feel better than I did at 40 and can do quite a bit more physically.  Without our health, we've got nothin'!!
