We all can agree that to stay healthy and control our weight we need to
exercise regularly and often. Exercise keeps us motivated, strong, prevents health problems like weak
bones etc, strengthens our heart and even gives us more energy and makes us feel good, so why do so few people actually do it?
Only about 15% of the population workout 3 times a week, and 63%
acknowledge the fact it is good for us and we need to do it, yet do next to no exercise at all.
The reason so few people exercise is because of a lack of motivation. Most people don't avoid exercise because they hate it, they just don't
have the energy and motivation to get the ball rolling and start doing
it regularly. Starting something is always the hardest part, once you
are up and running, things get a lot easier.
If you suffer with a lack of motivation, then don't worry! We're
going to give you 3 tips to help motivate you, change the way you think
about exercise, and help you stick to it for the long run. Remember once you get started and see results, then it's a lot easier to continue.
Compete: We are allmotivated by competition, pitting yourself against a target or otherpeople is a great way to get yourself exercising and enjoying yourself.Consider taking up a sport as your form of ‘exercise', that way it is alot more fun that running constantly on a treadmill. You could go for amore energetic sport like basketball or baseball, or go for somethingmore genteel like golf. Training for a race like a marathon is also agood way to motivate yourself to get fit.Stay away from things you dislike: If you start your exercise program by taking onactivities you do not like, you are only setting yourself up forfailure. If you absolutely hate the idea of spending hours in the gym,do not do it! Find a type of activity that you enjoy doing, and startthere. If you like taking your dog for a walk, try that. If you lovedancing, put on some music and cut loose! It does not matter what youchoose, just get up and get moving.Plan: Without a planthen you are just drifting along and you don't know if you are doingwell or if you are slacking off. Make yourself a plan, give yourself agoal to work towards and a schedule of what you will do to achieve it.Set yourself 10 – 12 workouts a month, and then tick them off as youcomplete them. This helps to show you when you need to work harder, andeven when you need to ease off a bit so you don't burn yourself out.
"A host of common chemicals is feminizing males of every class of vertebrate animals, from fish to mammals, including people. Many have been identified as 'endocrine disruptors' or gender-benders because they interfere with hormones. Communities heavily polluted with gender-benders in Canada, Russia, and Italy have given birth to twice as many girls as boys, which may offer a clue to the mysterious shift in sex ratios worldwide. And a study at Rotterdam's Erasmus University showed that boys whose mothers had been exposed to PCBs grew up wanting to play with dolls and tea sets rather than with traditionally male toys. It also follows hard on the heels of new American research which shows that baby boys born to women exposed to widespread chemicals in pregnancy are born with smaller penises and feminized genitals. It is calculated that 250,000 babies who would have been boys have been born as girls instead in the US and Japan alone. And sperm counts are dropping precipitously. Studies in more than 20 countries have shown that they have dropped from 150 million per milliliter of sperm fluid to 60 million over 50 years."
Let's take a look at a major contributor to the aging process and what it can tell us about slowing the ravages of time on our health. The factor we will explore is cortisol, a hormone that controls dozens of vital functions in the body. When cortisol levels are too high or too low, rapid-aging processes accelerate.

1: Strictly follow a healthy, nutritious, nutrient dense and calorie restricted diet. Limit consumption of sugar (a study showed that sugar diminishes Growth Hormone secretion). Several studies have shown that being over overweight and suffering from obesity can significantly shorten ones life span and lead to a higher incidence of disease. Fat = Disease.
Repeated studies have shown that moderate caloric restriction can prolong life span up to 30% in humans and animals.
