Everyone wants to see results, but many don’t know how to get them. You workout hard but can’t understand why you don’t see progress. The key to getting results is creating, and committing to, a balanced exercise program. An optimal program yields optimal results with minimal risk of injury. Following the 5 elements of a balanced exercise plan (listed below), will help you get the body you want and the good health that goes along with it.

[1] CARDIO FITNESS: It’s cardio that helps burn calories, thus helping you shed unwanted fat. It also improves lung and heart function, and lowers blood pressure. 30 minutes a day 5 days a week is optimal.
[2] MUSCULAR STRENGTH: Building strong muscle increases bone density, supports and stabilizes joints. Muscle tissue burns more calories than fat, keeping you leaner. 2 or 3 days a week of weight training is suggested.
[3] CORE STABILITY AND STRENGTH: With a strong core you minimize back and spinal injury while weight training, or even performing everyday activities.
[4] JOINT STABILITY AND BALANCE: The better your balance, the more functional you are. Stronger joints increase balance and stability.
[5] STRETCHING: Without proper stretching your muscles will have a decreased range-of-motion, a perfect recipe for injury and inefficiency in your exercise plan.
Just as important is nutrition. A balanced nutrition plan fuels muscles, gives you stamina, and maximizes recovery. Without a proper nutrition plan you could be doing more harm than good.

The actor gets older; more wrinkles, grayer, and heavier. The singer gets older; those high notes are no longer reachable, that stage presence isn’t what it used to be. The newscaster gets older; the station manager wants a fresher face, a younger voice. These people live their lives in the public eye; we see them getting older and, oftentimes, pass judgment on their decline in appearance or performance. It may not be kind, but those people are getting paid to do a job, and if they can’t do it, there will be someone fresher, younger waiting in the wings to step in and fill the void.

The game of life can be cruel, but more than just a game, it can be a grueling contact sport that can leave you battered and bruised. So, if you think that life is “just a bowl of cherries,” and that rocking chair is starting to look tempting, then this message may not be for you. If, on the other hand, you are among those who aren’t ready to throw in the towel just because you’re getting a bit older, then please read on.

Career turnover, due to society’s “out with the old/in with the new” mind set, doesn’t just occur with public figures; everyday people succumb to the very same age-related scrutiny. To make matters worse, aging brings with it a host of undesirable ailments. Many problems, traditionally accepted as a natural part of the aging process, may actually be due to adult hormone deficiency. The older we get, the more our hormone levels decline. The ensuing joint pain, muscle aches, and decreased energy lead to a more sedentary lifestyle which, in turn, contributes to a steamroller affect that slowly cripples sex-drive, reduces mental sharpness, heightens

 

anxiety, increases depression, and destroys motivation. In women, it’s known as menopause, in men andropause, often referred to as “male menopause.”

To counter these declines, many Baby-boomers are seeking to regain lost hormones through hormone replacement therapy. Restoring hormones to optimal levels has been shown to be effective in achieving and maintaining a more vibrant, youthful lifestyle, in those with hormone deficiency. A lifestyle that promotes optimal health, vitality, and longevity.

No one wants to feel their time has come to be put out to pasture. You want to keep that edge, that thirst for life; you want to get back in the game and keep competing at a high level regardless of your chronological age. Whether it’s your career, your ability to perform sexually, or your general quality of life that’s suffering, the bottom-line is, sensible, physician-supervised hormone replacement therapy can give you back what the aging process has taken away.
