These seven universally apply to any type of exercise

World class wellness tips on napkin
A simple, profound list.

 

These seven universally apply to any type of exercise:

  1. Anaerobic/Endurance
  2. Aerobic/Strength
  3. Core
  4. Flexibility
  5. Diet
  6. Rest
  7. Motivation/Goals

Improve one, they all improve. Neglect one, they all suffer.

Then compound the effects either way when two, three or four are improved or suffer.

Ignoring this does not negate it’s truth.

Let’s-keep-going good

Orlando Wellness Keynote Speakers

 

(photo: Went from wanting to quit to running for an hour. Crazy. Transformational. Again.)

Wanted to begin the last run by walking a half mile first. But mustered a slow jog from the end of the driveway.

Really wasn’t feeling it.

At all.

And somewhere – about 30 minutes in – it started getting good.

Effortless.

Enjoyable.

Let’s-keep-going good.

(motivation is fuel)

Find a million ways.

It matters little to walk somewhere to preach, if not the whole walk is the preaching.

PS. Wonder if the driver plowed through the rut he created, or needed help getting unstuck.

From a Scout camp dining hall and rationed portions, to the annual summer beach vacation and letting our hair hang down… we experienced a keen appreciation for the different level of focus and luxury.

Scout dining halls

Three great physical conditioning reminders from London Olympics:

  1. A strong core is a prerequisite for excellence
  2. Being healthy is not a spectator sport
  3. Our toughest competitor is comfort
