Kick it up a notch!!!

Ok, so you are up to 30 minutes of daily physical activity.  Great!  So now what?  Are you ready to add physical fitness components?  Our primary goal in physical activity is to avoid premature death and prevent disease.  So, with adding physical fitness components such as cardio function, leanness, muscular strength, muscular endurance, and flexibility our goal is to have a higher quality of life as well.
Work on creating that core strength to lift your children or grandchildren.  Relieve stress.  Have more energy throughout the day.  Lift weights.  Work on your flexibility.  Try yoga, but if you are not ready for that then stretch like we did in gym class!  Just stretch!
