3 at 71, but I don't do any specific physical training that involves that set of muscles. I do a decent amount of digging, carrying, lifting, & hauling working around my place though. At our Thanksgiving get together yesterday, I did climb a 15 ft. climbing rope - using my feet to help. Of the half dozen who tried it ranging from 22 to 50 (excluding me) one of the twenty four year olds did it on the second try & the 22 year old did it without using his feet to help. The effort was quite a contract for me, since I set the school record for the rope climb in the ninth grade.
