Why is fitness good for you?
A consistent, daily fitness program will help you lose any excess pounds that you might have on your body. Working out burns fat and calories which will keep your weight in check. Even if you only take the stairs rather than an elevator, park your car farther away from the store (so you can walk more) and generally, move throughout your day (if you don’t always have the time for a workout), is better than doing nothing.
Participating in a fitness program on a regular basis will keep your energy at a higher level during your day. Instead of having a late afternoon ‘slump’, you will feel energized rather than tired and sluggish. Fitness helps keep chronic diseases (high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease and many others) at bay. Who doesn’t want that?!
If you follow a good fitness program, it will also help you sleep better at night. You should get between 8 and 9 hours of sleep. Your body rejuvenates during this time which is very important to staying fit and healthy. The more you move during the day, the better chance of you having a good night’s sleep. You will fall asleep faster as well as have deeper REM (rapid eye movement) sleep.
On the Fitness page, I will describe companies that offer various devices, workout equipment and other products that will help you achieve a fit, strong and healthier body. Devices such as heart rate monitor watches, fitness and brain-training software (a fit body must have a fit mind), nutritional programs, sports medical and rehabilitation products, supplements to build a stronger body and bones, plus much more available in the fitness industry that you might not know about.
I pick quality products only (after much research) to offer the baby boomer or anyone who wants to build and maintain a healthy body through the years. Its definitely more difficult to stay fit (women definitely know about this!) as you get older, but it is even more important to do so in order to keep certain ‘old age’ diseases at bay. Fitness is the key!
