You are reading this page...
because something in you is ready to live a healthier life.
Whether you are motivated by the change of seasons, a class reunion, or a doctor's warning, you have come to the right place.  If you are not living the life you want, why wait another day?  Start here, start now.

The first step can happen quickly...
you begin by setting an intention.  Take a moment to write down a goal.  It could be as simple as picking up your grandchild, tightening a flabby belly, or completing a triathlon.

I can't exercise because...
There are lots of reasons why people find it difficult to exercise.  The ones I hear most often are: I don’t have enough time; I’m too old, I am in such terrible shape I would be embarrassed to start, I’m too tired.  If this sounds familiar, read on.  The good news is that for most people, it is never too late to start exercising – and in many cases, it’s good for what ails ya.  

I don’t have enough time. 
This is a big one and I struggle with it too.  Some days I simply can’t spare the time, even though I know it will pay me back with increased energy and focus throughout the day.  If finding time is your major stumbling block, here are some ideas that might help.
* Monitor your daily activities for a week and see if you can find some 30-minute blocks for physical activity.  Often there are hidden minutes that can be reclaimed with creative thinking and pre-planning.
* Schedule exercise time as you would any other important appointment. 
* Add physical activity to your daily routine.  For example, use the stairs, park the car farther away from your destination, take Rover for an extra walk. 
* Take a fitness break instead of a coffee break.  Research shows that as little as 10 minutes of continuous activity at a time can have significant health benefits.  If you can’t manage a full hour, break it into 10-minute segments.,,,(continue)
