Should we really stick to the rule of “drink 8 glasses of water a day?”
The body is made up of 60-75% water. So how much or little you drink can seriously affect your health.
Searching for your fountain of youth? The secret may be found in your lust for life!
Watch on YouTube the song “Lust for Life” co-written by Iggy Pop and David Bowie way back in 1977. I know some of you may not have been born yet! It is such a fun and energizing beat. Makes you want to get up and dance! Fun fact: Bruce Willis covered this song for the soundtrack of the 2003 film “Rugrats Go Wild”.
Just 30 minutes a day of any physical activity is all that it takes to live young! [Read more…]
Do you know what benefits being active will do to your body and why it’s important ? Physical activity will slow down the aging process, reduce your risk to chronic diseases and increase your longevity.
Being more active doesn’t always mean hitting the gym either!
Increase your success by picking an activity that you will stick with. Some of my favorites are yoga, golf, biking, gardening, zumba, walking and swimming!
Do tell what are some of your favorite activities?

The health of my family is more important to me than anything else. Naturally, I include myself in this equation, so I always make an effort to eat well, exercise regularly and do whatever I can to keep the whole household as fit as possible. When we travel it becomes necessary to make a few tweaks to my usual formula. We eat out more, spend time in hotels and airports and don’t have access to the usual forms of exercise. Nevertheless, it’s not that hard to make a few adjustments and apply my knowledge about fitness to our road trips.
I always do plenty of research before making reservations. Finding a hotel with a good fitness center makes a big difference. Some hotels offer other exercise options such as pools, tennis courts or perhaps bicycle rentals. These all help us get regular exercise no matter where we might be staying. For our upcoming trip to Orlando I did just this. With so many hotels in Orlando, sites like Gogobot can be a huge asset. Of course, I still have to push my family to actually use these amenities, but that’s not usually so hard. We’ve come to learn that we feel better and have more energy when we work out regularly.

It’s been said 100 times I’m going to say it again. You are never too old to get fit. I am 57 years old and on January 26th I attended LaBlast™ Fitness Instructor Certification Training being taught by none other than Louis Van Amstel from Dancing With The Stars.
I am a Midwestern grandmother of four, hairstylist and esthetician with a love of dance. I believe in aging gracefully and naturally and as I become closer to the age of 60 realize how important it is to keep moving.
I am going to be honest with you and tell you that other than dancing during ballroom dance lessons I have had a hard time staying motivated to exercise on a regular basis. LaBlast™ fitness classes I WANT to do~and you will too.
LaBlast™ is a perfect balance between dance and fitness. It is totally a partner free dance class that will both challenge and inspire people of all ages and fitness levels, while dancing to music of any genre from Pop and Rock, to Hip Hop and Country and everything in between.
