The two best things about the World Championships in Tbilisi, though, were the performances of some of my team mates and friends.

First, getting to watch and cheer yesterday as the great Carl Morris won and then collected the Gold medal as 70+ men's sabre champion after one of the most dominant performances in a final I think I've ever seen.

Then second, today, as a GB Grand Veterans men's sabre team full of my friends staged an amazing comeback to win the Bronze medal. Emmanuel, Duncan, Chris J, Chris C-S and Carl (again) were astounding and the rest of the GB team shouted itself hoarse cheering them on.

There is a massive difference between treating fitness as a phase and treating it as a way of living. When you see those of us in our 40s and beyond who are in incredible shape, you are looking at people who stopped making sacrifices a long time ago. Instead, we made a choice. To the outside world, our lifestyle looks like a series of restrictions. No nights out, no junk food, no breaks. People think we possess superhuman willpower. But from the inside, it requires almost no willpower at all. Why? Because we made that choice which shifted our identity. We don’t crave junk food because it doesn’t agree with the body anymore. Instead, we eat what fuels us and makes us function well. There is no feeling of deprivation when your actions align perfectly with your values. For us, it isn’t a sacrifice; it is the ultimate form of self-respect. Now, look at the other side of the coin. A lot of people who look incredible at 25 will not maintain that look into their 40s. At 25, youth provides a natural biological buffer. A fast metabolism and rapid recovery can easily compensate for a lot of lifestyle inconsistencies. The trap is that when staying in shape requires less effort, it’s easy to treat fitness as a temporary project rather than learning how to truly live this way. But youth eventually expires. When that biological buffer fades and life gets complicated, a temporary project mindset completely collapses. You cannot outwork a changing biology without deep roots. For us, fitness isn’t a project we run to when we have time—it is part of our daily life.
