Health and Nutrition That Is AboveNBeyond

Well, it just goes to show you that taking a break isn’t always a bad thing.  I have had kind of a semi-forced 4 1/2 month break from running due to various personal issues ranging from a back issue to a severe cold and a soar lower back.  These issues basically kept the sneakers off until yesterday.  The sky was blue, some sun and it was 40 degrees out.  I just had to do it.  I got on my running attire and put on my mp3 player, opened the door and out I went.  Since I was off for a while, I decided to take it easy and I only ran 2 miles.   It was a very satisfying 2 miles.  During the run, I found out that my legs are very much still up to the challenge in running and when I was finished, the only problems I experienced was some coughing due to the wind and my legs did feel a little wobbly from not running for a while.  Other than that, nothing bad to report.  This was just an extra post that I thought I’d add this week.

Today, I am finding that my urge to go running has strengthened and I will be heading out again this week.  So you see, breaks can be a good thing.  If any to rest you up for more later.  I can’t stand it when it’s nice out and I cant run.  I am kind of insane at times, I love it when it’s warm out to run, I enjoy the sport better during the warmer months.  Even when it’s humid, I just head out earlier in the day.

If you don’t venture down the road of fitness, you are missing out on a world that will blow your mind! So what if you are lazy. We all have those days, the secret is not to let every day be lazy. Not only that, you have the rest of the day to be lazy after your workout. A little bit of pain and lots to gain. Fitness if not taken advantage of is like a door that was never opened. You never know what awaits on the other side. It doesn’t matter if you are a teenager or past the age of 70, fitness rocks!

Having a life of fitness is a great way of lessening health issues as you get older. Granted, there are no guarantees, but, why ask for it. Having an active fitness life is another way of save guarding your health. Think of it this way, your computer has or should have anti-virus software to protect it from viruses. Well, having an active fitness life is like having your own anti-virus software for your life. Now, fitness is only one third of the dish, and one must not forget weight management and nutrition. For all 3 work together and does the body good!
