What's It All About?

Follow me, or better yet join me as I journey into my sixties... enjoying my grandchildren... trying to stay healthy and fit... maybe some traveling and whatever else tickles my fancy.

Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentines Day... if you're eating chocolate, I hope it's dark chocolate... but not too much. It's OK to indulge every once in a while, I know I do. A good idea is to put any Valentines candy in the fridge or freezer and only eat one piece a day as a bedtime treat for doing a great workout or eating healthy all day. But remember you have to put in extra workout time to work it off. By the end of the week it could be a few hundred calories, depending on the treat.
Better idea is to take your Valentine on a walk, while holding hands. Or cook him or her a healthy romantic dinner.

I had a good shoulder work-out today. I'm using lighter weights and doing more reps while concentrating on my form. I did the same for Chest on Saturday and My pecs are still sore. I'm learning you don't need to lift heavy all the time, perfect form is more important. I had to get rid of that macho attitude before I got hurt. To me it feels like more of a work-out with the lighter weights. I'll do this for the next few weeks and see how it goes.
