Sunday Story…Living Longer Better (Recap!)

 

Over the last few weeks, we’ve covered the 9 things you must do to be part of the centenarian Olympics. Here they are:

Move

Long slow distance…70% of your max heart rate for 45 minutes a session. 2 or 3 days a week should work.

Pick up heavy things…mix up all the compound lifts at least twice weekly.

Sprint…go fast, go heavy, and go all out a couple times a month.

Eat

Eat Real Food…things you can identify their source and don’t need a label.

Don’t eat Sugar…it isn’t helping!

Eat to perform…In other words portion control. Not too much, not too little, just right

Attitude

Sleep Well…create good sleep habits, watch your screen consumption before bed, and prioritize it.

Cure your stress…meditate, walk, and play. Stop stressing out!

Say Thanks…gratitude is simple, and you have much to be grateful for if you allow yourself to feel and express it.

 

There are 9 things that are going to help you on your quest to be the best you can be as you venture deep into the unknown territory of aging. Are there more things? Sure but these 9 are well-researched and proven to ease your journey. And as I say so often…It is simple, it’s just not easy.
