The Magic of exercise
Its good for you …trust me you will Love it.
There is nothing better than moving to the music of Chubby Checker singing the Twist. As I looked across the gym today I felt a surge of joy that I knew everyone in the room and we were all grooving to the music…laughter filled the room. We were all moving in sync …visions of Richard Simmons floated in my head.
There was me , Charles, Carol, Carl, Jan two (we call her that cause I’m Jan one), Martha, Lisa, Kathy, Ron and Howard. Susan and Wendy were there in spirit. Grooving to the oldies, k pop , B-bop ,Pop and hip hop.
It’s Strength training and everyone needs it. I don’t care who you are…or what situation you are in . If you can crawl through the door or roll in. People come in wheel chairs , with canes and on walkers.
It’s a cure for depression, changes your mind set and gives you energy . Sometimes it hurts but we push through the pain and find Joy, energy, Happiness, new ideas , you develop new friends with the same mind set as you. You all are striving for a better life a better future for your later years. Enhance your quality of life and sharpen your thinking skills. Exercise feeds the brain, cleans the cobwebs out of your brain and increases your intelligence each time you engage in it.
As a child of God we need to value our lives as He values us. The old saying “ cleanliness is next to Godliness. Well exercise should be a prerequisite for taking care of the body God gave you.
Make your way to the gym, you have no idea what awaits you. The richness of life , the deep joy of being alive, stretch arms and stretch your mind and let the dreams flow .
You are never to old to move if it’s only a toe , I say move it. And get the glow. The glow of knowing your God given body needs to move in order to function in your day to day life.
If you want to feel better, optimize your health, bring a glow to your skin. Over come darkness that may be creeping into your soul. Move it so you won’t lose it.
Anger, sadness , resentments will flee.. get that blood flowing its good for you and me.
Flood the Brain with Endorphins and chase those blues away .
So get a move on its a new day.
