SENIOR FITNESS STARTS NOW!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND WELCOME EVERYONE!!! Every year, for as long as I can remember,
(some times for only a few minutes), people have been making New Year's resolutions that they don't keep...or don't remember. I will continue this, as usual, on Sunday. This is called a "teaser."

Well, finally it is Sunday...and if it's Sunday, it's blogger time! Why is it that most of us need a time or day or specific "time zone" or reason (besides health) to start the fitness journey! As a society, we tend to postpone what needs to be done. Some time ago, I realized that a day lost can never be made up. There are no "time trials, qualification rounds or dress rehearsals" in real life.
One can not make up for lost time. THE TIME IS NOW! And not just for those of us who are age 70, or for seniors in general, but for people at any age. Society needs to change the lifestyle mind set relative to fitness and our eating habits. Change is not easy. The mental process comes first, then the physical part. I firmly believe seniors must lead the way. Why would we wait for someone else to set the example. We ( age 50 and over) have lived through more changes than at any time in our history. Our legacy, ultimately will depend on how we are viewed as caretakers of ourselves and those around us and those who watch from a distance. We must be the benchmark for those who follow. We need to set the bar higher! I do not believe in the status quo in life. We either get better or we get worse. SENIORS...we have one more challenge, let's get it done! we have unfinished business. Senior fitness starts now!
Next week... miracle women. The women in my "balance your life" class.

Have a great and meaningful life everyone! Jimmy O
