It’s ringing – Gosh, & I was just about to find the buried treasure in my dream. so loud!.ti ti ti .ti ti ti.ti ti ti Could somebody please turn it off? I open my eyes, look around. where is it? Where the heck is that alarm clock? ti ti ti .ti ti ti. Got it! .shhhh.
Quiet, peace. I wanna sleep again, but wait a minute. the sun is shining outside! I get up. where is my walkman & trainers?. Found it, a quick splash of water on my face & of I go. where to? Simple.to jog a bit.
½ hour later.
Bum bum bum( my loud steps on the stairs) . uuufffff
The house is still quiet, everybody except my dog is sleeping. The only thing I dream about now is a cold shower!
But finally I’m totally awake! Now nothing can force me to get back 2 bed! I feel great, worn out but great!
.
Yes yes, that was my usual wake up about a year ago. when I still used to train.:o)
Unfortunately, now the lack of time limits me, so I don’t do that every morning – since I started to work, each minute of sleep is too precious 4 me! Nevertheless I try to move as often as possible! Even if this movement means getting up from my desk to the coffee machine;o)
OK –reason of this review? Well.I guess that I wanted to show u the tendency of forgetting about our bodies, about our health, cause lack of exercises do affect your health! Yeah, yeah don’t be so surprised.
Is it beneficial? I mean is it really worth all this sweat? All this effort? After all when you exercise, your heart has to pump more blood to supply oxygen to your muscles, and simply it makes you feel tired!
And what’s going on in the world lately? Everybody is worried about SARS, AIDS, biological weapon, but we keep on forgetting about simple habits of ours, which can become a much more serious disease.
My point is that, all this junk food, stress and lack of movement, can cause a huge mess in your body. And I’m not talking about getting fat or lazy(of course that 2).
What I want to say is that we can get sick not knowing about it! For instance heart attacks, mostly they r caused by your improper lifestyle! It’s worth to think about it before you’ll reach for another burger, isn’t it? But nutrition is not the topic I wanted to write about.
My aim was to encourage u folks to a little bit more physical activity:o)
Generally speaking, I would like to show u a few tips, on how to keep’fit’.:o) Look at those hypothetical situations.
1.Your wife/hubby wants you to make pancakes for dinner, but u have noticed that u have ran out of milk. what should u do? Instead of persuading your partner that having pancakes for dinner isn’t a good idea & suggesting ordering a pizza, just put on your jacket & go get that milk! After all it will take u only 10 minutes to the nearest shop!
2.It’s April 27th and in 3 days it’s your sisters birthday & u haven’t bought her a present yet! And the worst thing is that u have no idea what to buy her! Try not to visit all net stores, just leave the office 10 minutes earlier, catch the earlier bus and try to look 4 something for her by yourself. I’m sure she’ll be more satisfied with something u picked up 4 her personally than with a CD or book, which she could order by herself in any Internet store.
3.You’ve got plenty of clerical work! For 3 hours all u have been doing is signing papers! U r fed up with it! Now! - leave your desk behind for 10 minutes –(I’m sure your boss won’t mind). Get out of the building, breathe with fresh air for a while & come back to the office, but avoid the elevator, use stairs. As my friend used to say.’When u r fed up with mental activities do something what will improve your physical strength, & the other way round’. Wasn’t he right? Try it:o)
4.And now coming back to the jogging part. That would be a great solution. of course u don’t have to start with a marathon! You have to remember that when u r a beginner & start with a big amount of exercises, u’ll feel sore the next day! If you over exercise or exercise improperly, u can make small tears in the muscle fibers. Cause of that, various proteins & other material from inside the cell can leak out. Your immune system will try to supply the body with those substances so it will create a mild inflammation and u will feel it as next-day soreness. So if u wanna jog –it’s a great idea – do it, but do it carefully.
5.It’s Saturday morning – u’ve got a day off, just like your kids. Take them out somewhere & I don’t mean cinema or Mc Donald’s. Go 4 a walk to the nearest forest or visit the swimming pool, I’m sure it will be fun! And how healthy by the way.
I could go over & over like this. The main reason of this review is enlightening u that physical effort is as much important as the mental one! When your body won’t be relaxed neither will be your mind!
Personally I can assure u that sometimes a lonely run is the best opportunity to think many things over. Not only does it reduce tension & stress, but believe me or not it can be real fun.
You don’t like to run? Hey! –take it easy, there is such a wide variety of other sports! Pick up one of them, basketball, cricket, tennis, aerobic.whatever! Just move.
Health is playing a major role in our lives! Am I right? After all what would life be without health?
