Being In Shape At An Older Age

 

So the morning will start out with getting up and jumping in the shower. The wife will have made up a nice little breakfast type meal for me. Placing it into the refrigerator so that when I’m ready I can simply get it out.

Popping it into the GE oven to heat it up for just a few minutes. Cooked to perfection I will normally be filled up completely by this little bit of food. It is pretty big for what the wife would eat, but for men it’s a bit of a small portion.

Next it’s time to get ready to exercise, and that means getting ready by placing on the right clothes. Not only that but my men’s sport watch that will help me watch the time. Cotton is my favorite type of material to workout in, because it helps to keep me cooler.

Depending on which day it is will mean I will either be lifting a bit of weights, or doing some cardio workouts. Since our exercise room is in our home, it doesn’t take long to get too. Not only do we have the equipment needed, but we’ve saved money over what it would cost to join a gym in our local area too.

Anyway it’s a lot harder to force yourself to head into the gym all the time. This way we walk into the room, and begin working out. So for the cardio days like I said it’s jogging, and that means the treadmill. But it’s fun because we have one of those ebook readers attached.

Meaning as I jog the five miles each day, I can become educated about something, or read a favorite book. Depending on how I feel that day will be what I pick out to read. Just as long as I don’t get stuck with only the wife’s romance choices it’s all good!

After that I will than head into the shower and get ready for the day of work. Each day I will get up at three to begin this process. Most people wonder how I have so much energy, it’s healthy eating and exercise.

Not as much sleep is needed when you are in good shape. About six hours is the most we both need each night. But it’s just nice to know that we will get to see the grandkids as they grow up. Because we will be around for a while!
