Slacking



Not all THAT proud....I have been slacking with the gym.

Last week I was there 4 days and ran 4 miles each day I was there.

This past week....
I walked by the gym a few times. Didn't go in at all.

I NEED to make it a priority to get back in to the swing.

We are doing the Buffalo Marathon this year.
Should be super fun!
Talking Proud!!

It is my right.... as an American to eat as much as I want. As a human being and some one who wants to remain alive (as it beats the alternative) it is wrong wrong WRONG.

A recent article pointed out that Americans are getting fatter and fatter. Not just fatter but OBESE.



With this weight gain there are increases in chances of death. From heart attacks, stress, Diabetes, as well as not fitting through an emergency exit.



What (if anything) are your thoughts?

Can you eat enough to be full and keep your mind from wanting to eat more?

Stronger/Healthier people are harder to kill.




It is not just because they are super fast and can not be trapped in bear traps, or rat tzapper, or even shot at. It is that they are healthier and are therefore more in tune with what their body needs.

A 20-year study involving nearly 9000 men aged 20-80 found "Muscular strength is inversely and independently associated with death from all causes and cancer, even after adjusting for cardiorespiratory fitness and other potential confounders." READ THE STUDY.

What does this mean? What is the conclusion? It is that Muscular strength is inversely and independently associated with death from all causes and cancer in men, even after adjusting for cardiorespiratory fitness and other potential confounders.

Does this work?



Jack LaLanne lived to 96. And the last 15 of those years were not diseased and decrepit years Jack had.

So ....

stay healthy now
for a longer and fitter life!
