My FitBit Watch Report since the first day it began recording some time in March 2018.
1,384,902 steps …. wow!
529.02 miles, most walked, some by running!
The month of May 2018 I added up ‘Training’ or ‘Events’ (running) as a total of 77.96 miles.
I am impressed!
The Fat Boy who wore that hoodie can’t even ‘wrap’ his mind around running 77.96 yards, not to mention 77.96 MILES!!!!
Again, the main focus at this point is that I am getting INTO SHAPE, I am not getting BACK IN SHAPE.
I have never been in this general condition in my life except maybe when I was in High School. But I have NEVER been in this good of condition in my entire life.
But I never purposed to condition the body as a ‘fine tuned machine’ with the BEST FUEL (Whole Food/Plants) and no toxic Standard American Death Diet.
I have never purposed to condition the physical aspect of the body by being INFORMED.
My previous mindset was NO PAIN NO GAIN!! IF YOU AIN’T THROWING UP YOU AIN’T TRAINING HARD ENOUGH!!
That is what we did back in the 60’s….in High School. That is what ‘everyone’ believed.
Well, it is wrong.
Plus I am 63. I may be ‘old’, but if something wrong is wrong, it is wrong at any age.
It is generally reported the average SENIOR walks around 5000 steps a day. Some suggest a Senior aim for 8000 steps a day.
Aim for something, and aim for more today than yesterday. It doesn’t take much.
I like what my friend Tim Kaufman (Fatmanrants.com) says… “Eat plants and move your body, all ya gotta do is a little more than ya did yesterday. – Tim Kaufman”.
But folks, the focus is “…a little more than ya did yesterday…”.
You do not have to run 5K, 10K, or Marathons.
But you might…..
You might just be surprised …
Step #1. It is the FOOD. Eat PLANTS/Whole Foods. No processed crap.
Step #2. Move your body. Walking is the best, and safest way to start. Keep it simple.
Step #3. Repeat steps #1, and #2.
Enjoy life.
Live LIFE till you die.
Free yourself from the pain, failure, and disappointment.
Be INFORMED, then DO A LITTLE MORE!
You do not need to COUNT calories. You do not need to MEASURE proteins. You do not need to FEAR carbs.
