Interesting to think about: Regular exercies could up the odds of landing, holding and moving on to better work after your official career ends. Retirement, haha.

Like most of Arizona, Sierra Vista is where the aging relocate. The cost of living is lower than average. Overall the weather is moderate. The pace isn't crazy metro area.
The gym Buena Health and Fitness Center on Wilcox Avenue is always jam-packed with those over-50. They were there on their stationary bikes and doing some hard time on the trendmill before Gluck's research. In addition, the setting serves as a way to socialize. Often they swing on equipment right next to each other and chat up everything from sports to inflation.
This is anecdotal, not based on a study: The gym is used more by the aging than the young. The latter who are there seem to be involved in preparing themselves for competitive events such as bodybuilding or marathons.
Obviously, the very good news here is that the aging have gotten a hang of how to care for yourselves.
