It’s never too late to improve your aerobic capacity. Even if you have been sedentary most of your life, you can improve your fitness level and the health of your heart through regular aerobic training. That’s good news, isn’t it? But, don’t forget, you still need strength training to help offset the gradual loss of muscle tissue that happens with age. So, make sure you’re working up a sweat regularly!

People come in all shapes and sizes – from tall and slender to short and stocky. You can’t select at birth the shape you’re genetically programmed to develop or parameters like your height, but you can reshape your body through resistance training and dietary changes. Plus, you can enjoy the health benefits having a stronger, leaner body offers.

There are so many reasons to stay active and physically fit! Doing so enhances the ability to enjoy life because you’re more functional. It also appears that physical fitness can boost your odds of making it to old age and being functional once you get there. Take advantage of the best medicine that doesn’t come in a pill or capsule. It’s exercise!
