52? Should be picking out his mobility scooter, not playing "food Rambo" in his Cabela's get up.
You can very very active at age 52 if you maintain your health. Go to the gym and eat well now so you can avoid picking out a mobility scooter at age 52.
As a personal antidote, I would say that health is “free” up to age like 30. After age 30 you need to put some work in.
I just picture an elderly gen-xer with his beer belly, dropping his reading glasses in the forest and going OH NO like Mike Stoklasa in RLM videos, and has a heart attack from the strain of picking up his glasses, while thinking that he's better than when he was in his 20s (a common mental illness among my gen x cohort).
I call it "Middle Age Delusional Syndrome". There is nothing better than youth, and our lack of anti-aging technology, or even interest in it, baffles me.

Someone's eating at macca's everyday
That would be "every day". And no. But I know a guy who's my age who does, and he can't even stand for five minutes and he starts complaining about needing to sit down.
