Fabulous Health and Fitness
Information!!!
*A recent study by Dr. Kenneth B.
Schectman of over 1700 aging adults found that exercise
significantly improved their emotional health. .... Come to aerobics to
destress with us!!!!
*An ACE publicized article featuring a Wake Forest study (originaly in
the 2000 Journal of American Geriatrics) found that older adults who
participated in aerobic exercise / aerobic walking or weight lifting
significantly improved their postural stability. Within our group
fitness classes you will notice we incorporate a fair amount of
training for the CORE. It is vital that core muscles that support the
spine and pelvis are strong and balanced in order to maximize postural
stability and function.
*Over the past few years, the American Council on Exercise has
published a
fair amount of information on healthy nutrition. A featured
study demonstrated the importance of eating breakfast in order to
maintain weight loss and maintain healthy weights. Researchers of
the study done at the Center for Human Nutrition at the University of
Colorado, suggested that breakfast not only provides vital nutrition
and calories, but may serve to stave off hunger and excessive eating
later in the day.
*Last month's Experience Life magazine
had some interesting information related to experiencing the fun and
humor in life. Some of the key suggestions included:
Stay open to the mement and the positive elements of
the situation
See "fun" as a priority
Convince yourself you deserve fun
Smile- it helps reduce stress levels
Schedule some time for youreslf
Consider the company you keep- positive people help
positive attitudes!
*The above information is
for educational purposes only and is not meant to replace the advice of
your health professional.
*************************************************************************************************
We all have challenges that come our
way...
May we find peace in the struggles
Joy in the Journey
Love in our hearts.
And amidst all that comes your way
May you find the beauty in every day!!!
