Common Sense Approach To Fitness Wellness
Common Sense Approach to Fitness and Wellness:
“Common sense is not so common”
Voltaire
Do you ever wonder why people behave as they do? I am
constantly amazed at the behavior of people and the things they
do
As I get older I get more and more curious and spend much more
time thinking about things than I did in my twenties It just
seems we have swung the pendulum so far from common sense that
it may never come back
I don’t think it’s because we’re stupid, but I do believe that
we are time constrained and we don’t take time to think for
ourselves
I also believe that there is a conscious effort to “dumb down
Americans” by the media and the advertising industries
We rely too much on these sources of “information” for our own
good Perhaps it’s the threat of lawsuits that make us so scary
of allowing people to be responsible for their actions I have
some recent examples of “warning labels” that make me feel
somebody thinks I’m stupid * My new lawnmower warned me not to
pick it up while it’s running and use it as a hedge trimmer *
Or the makers of my windshield sunscreen told me not to operate
the vehicle while it was in place
We have become oblivious to things like this and have also
become accustomed to not being responsible for our actions
For example we want to sue the fast food industries for making
us fat Hey, we know it’s bad and we eat the stuff
I do have a point to all of this and it is simply that we are,
as a nation are large and growing larger I read an article in
yesterday’s newspaper that they are going to begin weight checks
on cruise ships and airlines because average passenger weights
are getting heavier Seats are being widened, even coffins are
being ‘super sized”
Obesity has increased by 20% in the last decade and the diet
industry has grown to over $35 billion annually Hey, Ever think
maybe the stuff they’re selling isn’t working?
We keep going down the same path however, looking for positive
results without trying to understand the fundamentals of how the
body works and what we need to provide it to allow it to be fit
and well
Keep in mind that we were not programmed to be fit by using any
of the varied diet products and programs on the market today
Our bodies will do just fine with proper food (fuel) and
exercise None of us want to acknowledge those facts however
because it might require a lifestyle change
Based on the research I’ve done over the past few years a
lifestyle change is inevitable We as humans with advanced
thinking capacity get to influence what type of lifestyle change
we undergo
We can choose to eat better, exercise and enjoy the lifestyle of
a fit and healthy person, or we can choose to ignore the facts
and have a lifestyle chosen for us
The second option may include a lifestyle we aren’t so satisfied
with
The option is ours, but one or the other will occur, we can
impact it in a positive or negative way One way or the other
our current lifestyle will change, for better or for worse, let’
use our heads and common sense to learn how to make changes in a
positive manner
We must stop looking for the “easy, fast, no-effort” miracle
cure for fitness and wellness Frankly our bodies aren’t made to
function without regular effort, only we call it exercise
