I’ve always preached functionality, but at 53, I feel the benefit of working in my functional movement when I train more than ever. Move smart!

There are literally no days in the week where you move the exact same way you did the day before. So why would you train/exercise using the exact same movements all the time? Think about your movements throughout the day and consider exercising in ways that add to your daily strength and endurance.

Why is agility training an important part of your exercise regimen?

Most people are used to moving in one direction — forward — but learning how to move your body 360 degrees and react quickly to stimuli can be beneficial in your everyday life. Agility training also reduces your risk of injury, it improves coordination and balance.

The brain is made up of 75 percent water. We lose 60-84 ounces daily. Did you know that even a 1-2 percent drop in fluids can affect your ability to focus? Just another reason to start a healthy drinking habit. Drink your water people!

I’m always talking about balance. Balance in nutrition and balance in exercise. You should NEVER do the same thing all the time. Today I worked on strength training, focusing on my upper body, on ONE LEG. I’m sad to admit that my literal balance is way off, because I haven’t been working on my balance training. I’ve been doing the things I love for exercise and have neglected this vital part of my overall wellness and strength. Good wake up call!

If you struggle with standing on one foot, work on it. Most falls that occur in older age are a direct result of poor balance.

Great way to get those veges in. My family loved this!

This chicken vegetable soup is loaded with shredded chicken and tons of healthy veggies. We use bone-in chicken which gives the savory tomato broth tons of flavor!
