Growing Older and Wiser

by | Jan 30, 2017 | Advice

First and foremost, what a fantastic workout we had on Saturday.  Several athletes stated several comments: “reached a new passion for fitness” and “found my love for running once again”.

Second, as years go by, we get a little wiser, (or so I like to believe — lol) I’ve learned that healthy food choices we consume is “our medicine” otherwise you have to eat medicines as your food choice if you don’t take care of your body. If you want to walk, some folks tend to walk alone, but if you want to walk or run fast and far, you go with a group. (which is why we enjoy training with our athletes).

Third, the 7 best doctors in the world are:

  • Sunlight
  • Rest/sleep*
  • Exercise (training of your choice)
  • The right food choices
  • Self Confidence
  • Friends (running buddies)..
  • Positive Passion

*Which brings me to Mr. Sandman.  Rest is imperative when it comes to training but also, our body produces and distributes Human Growth Hormone (GH) to repair your body while you’re sleeping.  GH is a protein-based peptide hormone that stimulates growth in your cell reproduction and regeneration, believe it or not, Sleep is the best natural steroid you will benefit from, if you take in the appropriate amount of rest/sleep. The extra ZZZ’s also helps with memory, creativity and other benefits.

Keep waking up with determination..because you will never regret achieving your goal… 🙂  Please feel free to reach out to any of our awesome coaches…they devote and volunteer their coaching time to help and see our athletes discover their untapped possibilities. This program would not exist without the wonderful coaches who volunteer their time week after week. :=)
