How Long Can You Afford to Not Exercise?

Byadmin_

Quite often we can get caught up in the ‘now’ and don’t consider ‘later’. My back is only a bit sore NOW but I can manage, I don’t have time to exercise NOW I have to look after the kids, I don’t have the energy to do anything right NOW, the doctor says my blood pressures isn’t too high for NOW, …  

But when does it become TOO LATE? 

Your back pain will stop you from being a great parent LATER, You’ll have even less time to exercise LATER, Your blood pressure will be too high and need to be medicated LATER, you won’t be the parent you want to be  LATER.

How long can you really afford to not take action? How will doing nothing impact your quality of life now and into the future?

You will be around for all of your and their important life events instead of limited by health conditions, medical bills and medication. You will be ALIVE and able to make memories with your family Now and into the FUTURE.

  • Excellence is Not an Act, But a Habit

    ByJarrat Wood
    Some of you may recognize the title of this article as a paraphrased quote from Aristotle. The full quote attributed to the Greek philosopher is “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” It resonates with me as a personal trainer as day in, day out I see clients who are very good at what they do regularly and conversely have a weakness in the elements of their training they choose to ignore. This can be explained away quite simply as human nature. We have a natural tendency to avoid activities and/or exercises which cause us discomfort or are difficult. We also have a natural tendency to de drawn to the activities and/or exercises which we are good at and are comfortable with. This can be exacerbated in a gym setting where other people are watching and of course, no-one likes to feel embarrassed.
     
    So if we use Aristotle’s great wisdom and apply it to our training we need to start developing a habit and over time excellence is a very real possibility. Some would say it is even inevitable with enough time and effort. In this way a weakness can become a strength and something we don’t enjoy can become very enjoyable. This all comes down to planning and having a training schedule that deals with your strengths and weaknesses appropriately to achieve excellence. This week, I share the core components of my own training plain as a guide to how to do this:

  • Milo of Croton

    ByJarrat Wood

    Milo of Croton was a wrestler of note who lived in the sixth Century BC. It is said that the great wrestler once lifted a 4-year-old bull on his shoulders, roasted it and ate it all in one day. Impressive, no? What I find most impressive about this story is how Milo was able to train and develop the strength to carry the bull. The tale goes that every day from when the calf was born, Milo would go out and lift the calf. As the calf grew so did Milo’s strength. Modern sport scientists would call this a perfect example of progressive overload in training. No doubt, modern day animal activists would probably have something to say as well! It is amazing what can be achieved when the sum of years of training is accumulated. Recently, the performance of two of my clients gave me pause to reconsider that we all have to start somewhere but eventually everyone can achieve great results over time.
