7 things to build in your 30s for your 60s:
1. 💪 Muscle & strength
Strength train 2–4×/week. Build muscle now to preserve independence later.
2. ❤️ Cardiovascular fitness
150–300 min/week of moderate cardio + some higher-intensity work. Build your aerobic engine.

4. 🥗 Healthy body & nutrition
Prioritise protein, plants, fruit, whole foods and healthy fats. Maintain a healthy body composition.

Your 30s are the foundation.
Your 60s are the result.
