Do you want to be fit?  Do you want to FEEL YOUNG, no matter your age?  If you do, you have to resist conforming to what everyone else is doing.  Our current culture values efficiency and ease.   What is the quickest way to get from A to B?  Where is the closest parking spot?  What is the easiest way to the 5th floor?  Where is the most comfortable chair?  So the first thing to come to grips with is this…..<\/p>\n

MANY OF THE THINGS THAT INCREASE  OUR EASE AND COMFORT ARE THE ENEMY!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

So where to start revising your daily routine?  Let’s start with sitting….and chairs.<\/p>\n

Is not a chair a good thing?  Do we not consider it polite when someone gets up to let another sit?  Are they not doing someone a favor?  Maybe not!<\/div>\n

Prolonged sitting can lead to health problems and even increased mortality.  Think of that the next time you TV binge!  And that does not include the effects of the chips and sodas.<\/p>\n

Sitting for prolonged stretches can increase your risk of heart disease, diabetes, hypertension.  It increases your risk of varicose veins and blood clots.   It is hard on your back.  Working out regularly will not always negate the effects of prolonged sitting.  The only way to avoid the side effects is to get up and move!   Frequently!  Remember that ease and comfort are not your friends!<\/p>\n
