SENIOR FITNESS WOMEN SHOW CLASS AGAIN

HELLO AND WELCOME EVERYONE! Today's blog is bitter sweet. First the sweet...my class on
"balance your life" is growing by leaps and bounds! Three months ago, the balance class started off
with three women and grew to ten. Class was for six weeks, but the women wanted to stay on
longer and are still coming to class. I have always said " you can start in my class, but you cannot graduate. Now, I have started three additional classes with ten women in each class. I teach a lot
of different classes, at all ages, but the balance class is the most fun and most rewarding. So, to all the women in the fitness world..."you are in a class of your own. Take notice to all you men out there."
Now the bitter. Over the past three weeks some hacker, somehow, got into my blog. Two of the most popular blogs of mine regarding the class for senior women were hacked. When you google
"senior women show class in fitness" and" senior women want balance in fitness," the hacker
inserted three words in front of my title. The words are women fitness. When you click on those titles you are directed to the hacker's blog. However, my text appears. This is a case of blatant theft and distortion. I contacted the authorities (incl. the FBI) and we now know who the hacker is. I was not going to say anything at first, but realized you, the reader needed to know.
The truth always comes out.

HAVE A GREAT AND MEANINGFUL LIFE. Jimmy O

SENIOR FITNESS GIFT TO ALL

HELLO AND WELCOME EVERYONE! I will address the title in a moment...but first I am very happy to announce that in January 2009, I will be introducing a new series titled " FIRST TO THE FINISH LINE..." I have been working on this for the past year. The series will include the following: ATHLETIC DEVELOPMENT CLINICS, MOTIVATIONAL SPEECHES for a cross section of audiences, SENIOR OLYMPIC TRAINING PROGRAMS, "TRAINING WHEELS",
bringing fitness into your company, BALANCE YOUR LIFE, for senior men and women. The class on balance for senior women has been the most rewarding for me. THE SENIOR COMEDY HOUR. We all need to laugh more in our daily life.
And finally, SHOW US THE WAY, is about fitness for the physically and mentally challenged, for all ages. I will also be doing narratives and "voice over."

My senior fitness gift to all, is my annual Christmas message..."happy holidays and a healthy New Year! Give yourself the gift of fitness, help someone each day, make one new friend each day and
be the best of you most of the time. Your contribution in life is in direct proportion to how you see yourself. How do you see yourself?"

HAVE A GREAT AND MEANINGFULL LIFE EVERYONE! JIMMY O

FUN + EXERCISE= RX FOR SENIORS

HELLO AND WELCOME EVERYONE! It's great to be back...look forward to Sunday and writing my blog. You, the reader deserve all the credit for my blog. I am thankful for your following the weekly blogs and for your comments. Over the past year the most popular blog was "Senior women show class in fitness." The most popular Senior exercise, nationwide..."BALANCE." So, the RX factor for Seniors from my perspective...consider a fitness program as a receipe. A receipe for a richer lifestyle! The ingredients: a well thoughtout self directed program or a class, a top notch trainer or facititator, being consistent and being true to yourself. The last ingredient...the spice, FUN! Fun is the intangible, there is no script for fun.
And unless you have a comedian for a teacher, the class brings the fun. Let the class have fun.
Spontaneity is a great gift and in one of my classes, most of them own that gift...especially the "sister act." The two sisters have their own show and everyone loves them. The last spice to add
is love and respect. The women in the "balance" class love the exercises (and have their weekly
success stories) but it's the FUN that they have. Exercise for them has become "a social event."
These women are living proof of feeling, acting and looking young. They let the "little kid"
come out and play. Just living the dream! How is that for an RX?!

HAVE A GREAT AND MEANINGFUL LIFE EVERYONE! Jimmy O

REWARDS FROM SENIOR FITNESS

HELLO AND WELCOME EVERYONE! Well it's that time of year again. Shopping, cooking, running errands, attending concerts and plays and not much time for exercise...at least we try and convince ourselves of that. Waiting 'til after New Years day should not be an option. Do you really want to lose the rewards of a fitness program you have worked so hard for? Do you want to start all over again? Missing just three consecutive days of working out puts you behind the "8 ball." Find a way to exercise daily...that will be the Christmas gift to yourself. And it's free! And you won't have "guilt feelings." Three times each year I take a week off from my regular, rigorous training schedule. Even though I still do some basic exercises, I start having guilt feelings and feel "ugly." This past week I had to get back to my routine in 5 days. Now I feel much better! Others around me will agree. During this time of year, exercise your mental fitness!
SIDE NOTE: As a trainer (teacher), it is so rewarding to have clients come up to me and say, "since being in your class I feel younger, act younger and look younger." Yes it's about attitude!
SELF IMAGE! The rewards of a fitness program are so great and the benefits long lasting.
Take a bigger bite out of life. The benefits you realize for yourself and others are in direct result
and in proportion to your own self image. Reduce the Holiday stress through exercise!

Have a great and meaningful Holiday everyone! Jimmy O
