“Normal” Isn’t Normal.

Public service announcement today …

Joint pain that prevents you from walking more than a block, or getting winded before you’ve reached your destination, isn’t normal.

Having a medicine cabinet with more pills than a gumball machine has gum isn’t normal.

Our body is always deciding …

24 Hours A Day.

7 Days A Week.

365 Days A Year.

Are we trying to get younger … or get older?

Now, let me be clear about one thing.

As the great Kobe Bryant once said, “Father Time is undefeated.”

But Father Time is very much open to negotiation.

Take care of your joints, increase your strength, improve your flexibility, keep excess weight off by eating enjoyably but reasonably … and your body will reward you with many more years of healthy, happy living.

Feed your body Netflix and Pop-Tarts, and you’ll be “rewarded” with soft, weak muscles and a pantry filled with pills.

A much better option: Feed your body strength training, an abundance of other physical activities and real, wholesome foods. Your reward will be a fountain of youth – and the ability to do what you want, when you want, just because you want to. Your body will have no reason to hold you back.

In fact, your body will be motivated to keep pushing you forward.

The choice is yours.
