Living to 2100

February 8, 2011

Old is not any specific age, it’s a mindset, and an ability (or lack thereof) based on what your body will allow.
I’d like to see 2100.
I’ll be 123 when it happens.
This is not impossible.
But I do have to start logically thinking about the things I am doing right now.
For instance, I have to consider the absolute beating I put on my body in the name of building muscle and being healthy.
Exercise is an important of living a long and functional life, but exercise can also be a detriment if done too excessively, or with massive injury as a consequence.
(Yes Jack Lalanne lived well into his 90’s but then George Burns lived to 100. Anecdotes are fun like that)
So being able to be ‘healthy and active’ 8 decades from now is just another reason to take pause and evalute why you do what you currently do right now.

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
