Physical fitness

Hi everybody,

It's hard to be dedicated to physical exercise as the body gets older.
I started reading a magazine called Women's Health that has articles on style, health, fitness and nutrition tips.

I have less energy to work out and it's taking forever for my tendinitis in the elbow to heal. At work, I slipped on a wet floor, did a nice slit and used that sore arm to catch myself.
Damn, it was just starting to heal. Back to square one. Ice, Ibuprofen and stretching. I hate taking Ibuprofen because it hard on the stomach and well, what's the scientific word......., I'll just say it naturally - causes gas. I know that's part of getting older. Digestion is harder and people have gas problems. I know it's funny, but it can be a health issue. That could be an
interesting topic during health awareness group time.

Name 2 topics that you would like to discuss sometime?

Name 3 exercises or form of exercise you did this week? Don't laugh.

For me it was swimming, stretching, and exercises to help the abs (leg lifts, stomach crunches)

Eat heathy and stay well.

    1. How about medications and drugs, generally? Side effects, efficacy, prescription, over-the-counter, FDA, non-FDA, etc. I love my meds A LOT but I don't love the side effects so much.

    2. Body image and our crazy, flawed, fatphobic society.

    Yeah, I'm gonna have to laugh. The only accomplishment I can claim in this sphere is that I walked to the main office instead of driving to pick up a birthday package yesterday... and I stretched my legs into strange contortions during a tickle fight with my girlfriend? Yeah, I got nuthin'.
