many here are older than you and have not "defined" themselves as "getting old" (frankly, you need to get those self limiting thoughts out of your head).
i've always been a big believer in the mind.. and imo, one of the secret to being the ripped 65 year old surfing every everyday is to be that "ripped 65 years old" surfing everyday.
as mentioned many imes here.. . focus on the core. keep it strong and balanced.
keep bone density...personally i'd eat plenty of green veggies and utilize fish for your animal proteins.
keep your testosterone.
hell, if necessary get side-piece half your age to force you from thinking like an old fart

I am sorry for my late answere.
Thank you very much for all your answeres: I really appriciate it a lot!
My conclusion:
I do not go kiting every weekend..... so if I go, I will go full power for a long long session.
This means with a twin tip, boosting (if I can even call my little jumps boosting), crashing and trying stupid stuff, every 30 seconds - for several hours
as I am in my mid 40th, I must admit to myself..... I am getting old....
it simply does not work out this way anymore.
thanks for all the honest answeres.
My strategy:
Take it more easy, don´t got too hard for too long. I also really enjoy going in small waves with a directional (this I can do for 4-5 hours a day).
Change my work-Out.
I tried a massive ab-workout. as soon as I stopped for 4 weeks, the effect was gone.
I will keep on doing this, but will change more to "Cross-fit", like jumping up stairs with both legs.
no idea if this will help
but I would like to simulate the explosive part of the take of. -> extended body, and then pull the legs back up.
I will start to strecht, on a regular base (in front of the TV). this is I think a big mistake I made.
most important: if i have pain in the abs, I will not push it with the twin tip.
working on the technic might be a good Idea.... but actually, after 3 hours of gooing "full power" it seems to be ok, to feel the muscles the next days....
but I will try to relax more
Thanks again
BR
