Almost a third of males over 40 are obese with a further third over weight and not forgetting those who are unfit. These rates look like they will continue to rise.
Many males are in a state of self denial about their current fitness levels. What doesn't help is the fact that the western world has an image of how you should look and act at every life stage.
Many over 40 year olds wish they could be as fit and lean as they were when they were in their 20s and younger. Wishing for it does not mean that you care about your health and no government health and fitness initiative is going to improve things and reduce the burden on the health service. It has to come from the individual and they must be prepared to follow the correct path to all round fitness.
