Many say they do not have time to exercise (among other things). I will admit that this has been one of my faults in the past. There was always something else that was “more important” at the time. However, last week something came to mind out of nowhere when I was getting ready for work.
I started doing some math and figured if you exercise three times per week for 30 minutes each day that equals 78 hours which is 3.25 days per year. If you exercise from the age of 18 until age 70 at the three day/30 minute interval that equals 169 days.
A doctor I saw a few years ago told me if I did not drop some weight I could take 20 years off of my life. So the realization that popped in my head that morning is that by not exercising for those 169 days I could possibly lose 7,300 days via an early death by a controllable factor. I prefer to choose the exercise over the other outcome!
Of course, the numbers are different depending on what age you start your workouts and hopefully you’ll never be in a condition where you need to stop. Imagine being one of the people you see on television that are running marathons in their 90s!
Jennifer Tankersley’s newest edition to her organizational repertoire has been released. “100 Days of Summertime” is her followup to her successful (and wonderful) ebook “100 Days to Christmas” which takes you from100 days prior to the holiday (September 16) until Christmas day itself and showing you how you can have a stress free holiday season.
So yesterday marked the end of my blog series about DDPYoga and I wanted to write one more recap about the journey. What a better day to write about a wrestler than WrestleMania Sunday, huh?
