Tell me why again

Yesterday i climbed a ladder to reposition a wireless security camera and was treated to this view.

 

Tell me why again.

Why isn’t cardio, strength, rest, nutrition, flexibility, core, and motivation part of your daily routine?

PS. This is the question i repeatedly asked myself until i got fed up enough with my excuses that i changed everything.

That milestone began in 1999 at age 40.

You know how important your health is, right?

You may have to literally dedicate your life to it

Thorny branch stuck in shoe
An object in motion faces challenges. So does an object at rest.

 

Honor the temple housing everything keeping you alive.

You may have to literally dedicate your life to it.

And if you don’t, you may have to dedicate your life to addressing the many preventable health situations brought on by poor choices.

Cardio, strength, rest, nutrition, flexibility, core, motivation.

Go.

Who’s the most important member of your healthcare team?

Healthy and active aging
Healthy and active aging is possible. Just ask 93-year-old Dixon Hemphill (L) and 100-year-old Orville Rogers (R). And it requires a lifetime commitment once you decide to start. You can start at any time, but quitting is not conducive to lifetime wellness.

 

 

Who’s the most important member of your healthcare team?

Family Doctor?

Dentist?

Optometrist?

Specialist(s)?

As we age, we have the increased odds of having a larger team.

So your answer?

You are the most important member of your healthcare team.

Go.

Be well.
