I found 3 interesting and excellent articles that I would like to share with everyone, please read them and pass them on to those that you care about.
The Canadian Heart and Stroke Foundation posted this article in their monthly newsletter regarding workout Myths http://www.heartandstroke.com/site/apps/nlnet/content2.aspx?c=ikIQLcMWJtE&b=4832209&ct=7809553 and they were spot on. If you have any questions regarding fitness, exercises, workouts, etc please don`t hesitate to ask me, maybe it will even turn into a future blog post.
I found the next 2 articles on Canada.com and they are regarding fitness and baby boomers. Although the first article, Seniors, boomers move beyond the gym, is from this past summer the message hasn’t changed http://www.canada.com/Health/Seniors+boomers+move+beyond/1744083/story.html?id=1744083&utm. I have said this many times the gym isn’t the only place to become fit, it has only been in the last 20-30 years that the word gym has become synonymous with the word fitness and it needs to change; why do you think we named our company StayFitAnywhere? Big congratulations to all of the baby boomers who have decided to take up activities such as biking, snowshoeing, and paddling. To the rest of the boomers what are you doing to keep active? To those who aren’t 55+ why aren’t you as active as the boomers? Which leads to the next article, Baby boomers more active than ever, http://www.canada.com/Health/Baby+boomers+more+active+than+ever/1736517/story.html. The message in this article was that it is never too late to start becoming fit. I’d like to think that baby boomers are becoming more active because they have seen what living a sedentary lifestyle can do to your body and lifespan and they are trying to make positive changes while they can.
Take what you can from each of these articles and practice it, and as always if you have any questions ask me right now!
