I have some bad news for you. Unless you change your habits, things are gonna be sliding downhill shortly. And the metabolism? You can kiss that goodbye.
At what age does this happen? I feel like it happens when people get to college, then again when they are in their late 20s or early 30s, or whenever they get a stressful job. But if you survive those phases you are invincible. RAWR! Of course I don't know many people who are older than that except family and they don't seem to change (nor work out).
My husband and I are about equally fit. He's an "apple" and I'm a "pear", if we put on a few pounds in the winter I probably have an easier time disguising it as I still have a pretty slim waist (all my junk's in the trunk!). Then come spring we both end up motivating each other and lose around 10 pounds. It's our annual cycle.
I have a back problem which makes it slightly more difficult for me to work out. So far it hasn't really effected me, but the doctors say it may really start to slow me down as I age, so I'm working to maintain my abilities and keep myself healthy. If I do slow down over time, maybe a gap will open up where he stays more fit.
It does effect our sex life for ME at least, sometimes in the middle of winter I'll feel BLAH and won't want to doll myself up. I seem to snap out of that come warmer weather.
Hubby and I need to move south!
We are both a bit out of shape right now. We have been doing more playing than working this winter.

We both want it and it will happen soon enough when we get back home and start working on the farm. We aren't in bad shape just a little softer.

Yes, my husband can't keep his hands off me, lol. He likes me with a little extra meat on my bones which will be gone once we get home. We are still the same people we fell in love with and knowing each other for more than 30 years hasn't changed that.
Do you want your Significant Other and/or yourself to be more fit? I'm working on fitness. He is too, there is always room for improvment and he's not THAT fit, but fitter than I am.
Who is more in shape, You or your significant other?
Good question. We are both in pretty good shape but I dont know who is in better shape. I recently had a freak illness that almost made me an "Eternal Member" so I havent done much the past month. The wife does 2 hours of yoga twice a week and teaches ballroom/dances 6 days per week. Im getting back in shape slowly by jumping rope and doing kung fu everymorning. So I guess right now, we are about in equal shape.

Of course. Fitness = health, which = (hopefully) longer life and higher quality of life. I think it would be ridiculously stupid for ANYONE to answer no to this question.

The fitter you are, the better sex is IMO and experience. It makes for longer lasting, more intense, more frequent sex.
My husband is in better shape than me. Of course, he is currently training/dieting for an upcoming bodybuilding show in June. That's not to say I'm a slouch but I don't have muscle definition showing (except upper thighs). I still have "marshmallows" in some places that are a b*tch to get rid of!
He keeps me motivated to workout because I want him to have a good looking wife just as I think he is a good looking hubby!

Try telling that to Ron Jeremy
