I just got back from a family vacation and we had a wonderful time. Unfortunately, I can't shake the shock of being at the pool and seeing so many obese people. I don't think people realize how badly that being overweight impacts their lives. First, being obese shortens your life span; you can rarely expect to live past 70 years. Secondly, if you are obese you can expect a poor quality of life; diabetes, aching joints, low energy, etc.... Thirdly, and the saddest thing about obesity is it is a lifestyle choice.I'm an ACE certified personal trainer and National Masters Over 60 Powerlifting Champion with over 25 years of experience in the health and fitness industry. I've seen a lot of fads come and go, but three things remain constant in getting healthy and staying fit. A positive mental attitude, a healthy balanced diet, and a fitness program built on proper strength training and cardiovascular exercise. Practice these three things daily and you will discover that they lead to "The Fountain of Youth."
