About Active After Fifty

Active After Fifty is run by A 54-year-old office manager in suburban Boston who hiked every weekend for 20 years until her hips and knees started making every trail feel twice as long. Spent six months being angry about it and another six months figuring out how to adapt instead of quit. Not a doctor, not a physical therapist, not a fitness coach -- just a woman who refuses to let joint stiffness turn her into someone who only walks from the car to the couch. Has tried supplements, changed her diet, modified her exercise routine, and has strong opinions about which adjustments actually made a difference. Still hikes -- just picked shorter trails and better shoes.. We provide honest, experience-based reviews and guides to help you make informed decisions.
