At the dinner table, two CEO’s were checking their resting heart using an iPhone app. One clocked 83, the other 53.

Both CEO’s know exercise not only improves health metrics, but as a side benefit, exercise simply makes you feel better, increases energy, reduces stress, improves sleep patterns, and on and on.

One exercises. One does not.

Did you know that thirty beats per minute difference equals an extra 43, 200 beats per day?

This also equates to 15.8 million extra beats each year.

Tell Me Again About Lane 8

What is Lane 8?  I’m sort of confused about Lane 8.

Okay, Lane 8 is about the physical gifts we have been given – our body and all the things that make it work.

How we take care of it is our responsibility.  No one else.  Ours!  We own it.  Or not.

At 50, I’ve found that taking care of this “gift” is increasingly more challenging.  As we age, if we get that privilege, we experience things that no one talks about with any decent wisdom.

Part of my vision at Lane 8 is to help people make common sense, common practice.  And, um, oh yes, one other thing – to help people not only get motivated and reach a great health goal – but to stay there.  That’s the key.  Staying healthy.
