SENIOR FITNESS "changing"

HELLO AND WELCOME EVERYONE! So, you are in a fitness routine...a "comfort zone." We must be carefull not to step into a rut. Boredom. This is when we become lax and slack off. We can avoid this by changing our workout exercises. We also need to challenge ourselves mentally and physically. Athletes at any age, at any level of competition need to vary the routine. Coaches must be aware of this. Routine does not stimulate the mind. Mental fitness is critical...every day, every workout. When we change our routine, change our exercises, we cause a thing called "muscle confusion." We want our muscles to be able to react to change and for better results. How we react to change is the name of the game.

This past week I was asked this question... "when will I be in shape? When will I know?" My answer...on a scale of 0 to 10, let's say you feel you are a 10. At that point you have to raise the bar and start a new scale of 0 to 10. Thus, you will never be in the shape you want to be or need to be in. And why would you want to end this journey. Your mindset...THINK BEGINNING, BECOMING!

HAVE A GREAT AND MEANINGFULL LIFE EVERYONE! Jimmy O
