I want each of you to know how I got my physical fitness groove back. What is groove? I
define groove as a state of mind, a personal comfort zone to be more
exact. Anyhow, I got my groove back by asking myself three very
important questions, they read as follows: 1. Do you enjoy your current health? 2. What are you going to do to improve your physical conditioning? 3. When are you going to start changing your current health? These
three questions helped me get my physical conditioning back in order.
In other words, I had to minister unto myself in order to get back to
the level of physical conditioning I know I needed to achieve. So if you will, please follow me as I answer these three questions.... No,
I did not enjoy the condition of my health on December 31, 2006. I had
a physical examine complete with blood work, it let me know I needed to
get my groove back. Would it be easy, absolutely not. the most
important thing I did was critically think about where I am today and
project where I wanted to be in the future. In my case I decided
to develop a 12 month program allowing ample time to achieve my fitness
goals. As each day passes I am enjoying my current health and feeling
better and better each day. The answer to the second question is
consistency. Consistently get up every morning to exercise. My
conditioning regiment consist of stretching for 20 minutes, resistance
band workout for 20 minutes, and weight lifting for 20 minutes. The
answer to my third question is, I started my current conditioning
program in January 2007. My program includes physical conditioning,
modified diet program that consist of six small meals a day to
accelerate my metabolism, and at least eight hours of sleep. Sleep is
important because it helps your body to recover and lose weight. I encourage you to start your own conditioning plan. You will add years to your life and feel so much better. |
