Are you 40-and over?
You’re not old – but you’re not a kid either!
You can still get into amazing fitness, shape, weight and health – but the approach is different than it was when you were 20.
These are the BEST years to be in great shape, health & have energy!
(No need to suffer – time to make the most of it)
1. Fitness Program Design based on skeletal limitations:
- Do you have pain or injury to your: Knees, back, hips, shoulders, neck?
- It might be a sign of skeletal imbalances that are causing joint pain/injury
- If so, that must be taken into consideration for your workout design
- The goal is to build a foundation support to the injured area, lowering the risk of future injury and regaining movement
- At the same time, avoid impact to the area that could make the problem worse
2. Less time exercising but more calories burning. :
- Work biggest muscles = most calories burning per second
- If done right – only 1.6% of entire week should be spent exercising
- For most people 3/x workouts per week is appropriate
3. Eat the Right Foods to keep insulin low.:
- It’s not about counting calories, skipping meals or starving – it’s learning to eat the right foods that will nourish and support your life
- Food preparation is important but can be as simple or elaborate as an individual desires. For many people, simpler is better
- It’s not about being perfect – it’s about being consistent. There is a time and place for everything (ice cream, pizza, sweets, etc.) you just have to know when.
4. Track with accountability:
- Consistency is key – just like brushing your teeth and flossing (can’t just do it the day before the dentist)
- Good Intentions – we all have good intentions and I don’t doubt that you want to improve. Without a trackable program it makes any results difficult
- Like Grade School – you need guidance and coaching. A 3rd grader cannot walk into a school and give themselves a proper education, it’s difficult if not impossible to do it completely alone without some level of help and support.
