I've been told I look a few years younger, I think its because most people 40 or over are not as conscious of their body/health as those of us here. In addition I've been in the military my entire career and wether I like it or not I am forced to maintain a fitness standard.
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 168 LBS

I have been accumulating a lot of salt & pepper in my hair the last few yrs.. I've been told that if I dyed my hair, I could pass for early 30's. No way I'm ever going to dye my hair tho.
I'm happy to look younger now tho. When I was around 32 or so and in poor health, I had to take my ex to the hospital one day. While in the examination room, the doctor asked her if she wanted her dad (looks at me) to wait outside or not. At that point, I knew I had to get my **** together!

Last time I got carded I was 38. SRS.
I got carded past 40. Not recently though.

She'd brought her nephew in and was hoping to introduce him to his new flatmates. Well!! Well!! Blow me down! He's a first year student too!!!!! i would never of picked him for a Uni student, he looked 9.
I cleared the air and told her "whom" I was and all that. She gasped...I think. I thought she was going to suffer a myocardial infuarktion, understandably she was mortified and began apologizing over and over and OVER! [That's 1 x 3]
She then quickly saved the embarrassing slip with..."WELL that makes it a great compliment to YOU!!" She started to cackle[I observed deep furrows and lost count at the number of laugh lines.] I shuddered somewhat violently[64 and 3 months] Her beady eyes roamed up and down my body ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [ticklish]
She held my left arm which housed an impressively swole bicep with the latest precision-cut tris. My gaze turned to daggers  and in my "barely there" pink wife beater top, flared jeans and crappy gym shoes...Heaven help me, I swear - the thought was there only for a brief moment and then - POOF* It was gone.
She shook me awake and told me it was time to take my meds.
I still get asked at conferences if I'm a student - presumably grad student. No meds needed

In no particular order:
- If you haven't gone bald, or are balding
- If you have kept yourself in good physical shape
- If your hair is not all grey
- If you don't act/ think "old"
- If you don't dress "old"
- If your skin has not wrinkled considerably (some folks are genetically blessed)
I never got the big muscle genes, but I did seem to get the youthful genes. Lots of hair, barely any gray/grey at the temples, and fairly wrinkle free (except for the crow's feet). Most people don't think I'm pushing 50 when I ride the shopping cart through the car lot I have a friend at the gym who's 12 years younger than me, but he's mostly bald and what little he has is gray - that's just the genetic dice. What's gray on me is my beard - when I let it grow out on my 2010 trip, it easily added 10 years to me. I decided that the Grizzly Adams look was not for me.
As I've said before, I'd trade all my hair for 20 lbs of muscle

I'm 55. Most people don't think I'm that age. Most people think upper 30's but I think I pretty much look my age because I know where all the flaws are

It wasn't me. I said 10!

I easily get away looking 10 years younger possibly 15.
I see some guys looking surprisingly old in their early forties, so I guess I’m doing pretty well.
I think having smallish features not many wrinkles and a slim neck helps a lot.

And a big chest and huge arms don't hurt either.

Clive, if it wasn't for your hairline you'd pass for 12-15 years younger.
