Sending Your Baby to Gym Class?

Four-month-old babies attending gym classes

Worried Mommies and Daddies have been taking the babies to the gym...

They are worried about child obesity. And they probably have too much money.

That is the only explanation I can think of: sending your 4 month child to a special class to exercise. Because quite frankly, if the baby can crawl, they are getting all the exercises they need.

The major culprit of childhood obesity isn't the exercise at 4 months of age. It is what they are eating! Junk foods.

When I was a kid, my folks didn't have to worry about childhood obesity. They just sent my brothers and I outside to do the chores around the farm. We only got three squares a day. No snacking in between meals.

Never got a ounce of fat on me...

And today, it is so easy for the affluent kids to go to the grocery store and load up on chips, candy and soda. Then they go home and watch TV or play on their computers.

This is a recipe for disaster...

Got a great review for new Mommies who want their pre-baby body back...

Six out of 10 Britons would rather die than exercise

The title says it all. And I am sure this is true for most of the developed world...

So why do we hate exercise so much?

Well sure, we have extremely busy lives -- we scramble all week at work and have no energy in our free time to take care of ourselves.

And making a commitment to workout and tone up our bodies is a really major thing...

But it wasn't always this way...

Up to ten thousand years ago before we invented farming and domesticating the animals -- when we got up -- we had to get the food -- or die.

Simple choices lead to the simple desire to live. But nowadays -- oh come on! If you are hungry -- go to the grocery store -- go to the local eatery.

We are not fighting to survive anymore. Food is plentiful. If you have read my other blog entries or my website, you know I question the kinds of foods we are putting into our bodies.

And I would admit it, if you are not conditioned to exercise, it is really a miserable experience. Not only that, most of us have the wrong idea about exercise. We see lean and mean people jogging by the park or sweating at the club and figure that this is what we have to do to look like them.

Let me tell you a secret -- even those people don't have a clue what they are doing! That's right. Those healthy looking folks probably just got lucky genes in them. So don't follow them!

Get the right book that is going to tell you the truth about exercises and food choices. Do it right, and you will be amazed how easier it is to shape your body and your outlook toward life.

88 Years Young and Still Going Strong!

Seniors find anti-aging elixer: Exercise

While statistics show the older people get, the less likely they are to exercise, a lot of seniors are bucking this trend.

All I can say about this is "Good for them!!!"

I was in California last week for my best friend's wedding. I have pictures to prove it, but she was definitely NOT acting her age! She was dancing and laughing. And she is 88 years old.

I teased my friend and asked him when is his mother going to "act her age." :)

"Never," he replied with a grin.

My point is don't let age limit your life. In fact, start now so that when you get older, your body doesn't have all the years of bad nutrition and lack of exercise breaking it down.
