News I Just Had To Share! September 15, 2009
Posted by Mary Ellen Iafrate in : Exercise , comments closedRecently, I began a new exercise regimen. I am no different than the average active American — always looking for an exercise routine that will be effective, mildly intense and of short duration.
I enjoy exercise – almost any kind – but since I am an athlete wanna-be (my term for someone who loves sports but does not have natural ability), I find myself constantly looking for a way to stay healthy through exercise. I have not been blessed with rapid speed, quick response nor excellent balance. And, I can be clumsy at times.
Then, in one easy read, I found the answer to my lifelong pursuit of wellness through exercise in “PACE: Rediscover Your Native Fitness” by Dr. Al Sears. Dr. Sears addresses both a rational and effective way to exercise that keeps me interested, is quick, and has been highly effective and personally motivating.
After only three weeks, I am excited to say I am walking, running, biking and hiking. Each activity is punctuated by short bursts of speed and intensity. Since I am fortunate to have access to a treadmill, a stationary bike as well as a Metro Park, I spend some time each day exercising according to the recommendations in Dr. Sears publication.
I believe the right diet and the right type of physical activity are equally important. If you would like to find out what motivates you to take better care of your body, my suggestion is to google Dr. Sears at www.AlSearsMD.com.
You will enjoy the results and the value of exercise.
NOTE: DME believes before beginning any diet or exercise regimen, visit your doctor first for a complete physical exam.
