You Are Going to Need This for Your Wellness “Retirement” Account

How do you want to spend your days when you are in your 70s or 80s?

A while/few weeks ago I was watching a group of active older adults biking and it reminded me about the things I want to be able to do when I’m their age.

I have a pretty long list, but what motivates me the most is wanting to be able to continue to playing tennis, go on adventures with my husband and be active with my grandkids... pain-free!

No matter how old your are, it’s time to start preparing NOW! (It's NEVER too late to start!)

After the age of 30, your body starts to naturally lose muscle every year unless you take steps to preserve it.

That can add up to a 15-pound loss by the age of 60. That’s a lot of potential strength right there!

This is why doing strength-training workouts is like building your fitness/wellness retirement account – each workout helping to make a muscle deposit!

I mean, we save money now to fund our retirement years later … isn’t it just as important to build a base of muscle and fitness so we can live those days to the fullest?

The bonus is that building up that strength and fitness for tomorrow actually pays off starting almost immediately, with a stronger, fitter, and healthier body.

Plus, when you have a plan and a goal, it’s fun and challenging.

Which makes it a win-win all the way around!

That’s not even getting into the health benefits.

Here are a few things we can intentionally do so we can stay or regain your desired activity level.

Stay consistent by making sure it’s something you do on a regular basis now.
Prioritize strength training at least 3 times a week.
Take the time to focus on my mobility and recovery
