What makes some adults exercise regularly their entire lifetime

relatives
Babies don’t think about exercise, but while awake, it’s all they do.. Boomers think about it a lot, but rarely do it. Fascinating.

 

What makes some adults exercise regularly their entire lifetime and others avoid it altogether their entire lifetime?

Today is an unexpected opportunity

Apple Health App
Haven’t used Apple’s Health App yet.

 

 

Today is an unexpected opportunity.

Why?

Because earlier this week, i thought our flight was today.

It’s not.

It’s tomorrow.

Today is Friday, a workout day.

What a wonderful gift.

This discovery reduces the break from exercising by two days.

Instead of “resting” for 13 days, it will only be 11.

Do you know your body well enough to know when it feels like starting over, and when it feels like a good rest?

Ten days is the longest i want to go without exercising.

Thirteen days is something i swore will never happen again.

Few things in life are as powerful as vibrant health

Wasn’t feeling it for running yesterday, so i saddled up the bike.

Multitasking is part of the Disney Culture.

Spent an hour at Golds after riding 21k.

After Golds, another 21k bike ride home.

 

Few things in life are as powerful as vibrant health.

Find a million ways to stay motivated.

It’s your responsibility.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

Back on the horse

Workout app
Trivial, yet celebratory, the flexibility to alter the process and still be happy about it.

 

At Disney, we succeed because we focus on creating the right structure and processes, and improving or changing them as needed.

Running and a gym workout are not my Thursday routine,  but yesterday it was.

Will get back to M-W-F next week.

Being sick for 48 hours really hammers home how different it feels when you’re not feeling vibrant and well.

What is the primary goal of exercise?

Running app
Yesterday was a run, today is rest day.

 

Contrary to popular thinking (driven by the media), losing weight is not the primary goal from exercise.

Exercise’s primary goal is strength, endurance and range of motion.

Extra weight is unhealthy. At least it is for me.

Have trouble accepting this?

Fill a small backpack with 50 pounds of stuff and wear it 24/7 for one week. yes, wear it to bed, in the shower, even while exercising.

Tough, right?

Well, that’s happens over time. Gaining 50 pounds doesn’t happen overnight. Odds are decent that gaining another 50 pounds could happen in your next 10-20 years.

So imagine wearing a 100-pound backpack.

Excess weight is unhealthy. The primary goal for exercise is physical wellness. Secondarily, it can add joy, camaraderie, and confidence to your karma.
