Here's How You Can Slow The Aging Process And Live A Higher Quality Of Life

Most people who still look radiant, youthful are vital and energetic past their 30s

and 40s are usually people who have taken steps earlier in life to maintain proper exercise and eating habits. Good eating and proper exercise is not (and should not) be a chore and if started early enough in life it just becomes who you are. It is then no more difficult than poor eating habits and a no exercise lifestyle.

Overcoming years of bad habits can be difficult to get past as it becomes an addiction. An addiction to bad lifestyle is no more different to an addiction to alcohol or tobacco but the effects are more subtle so we often do not think it is harmful to our health.

If you live this type of lifestyle where you eat a lot of processed foods and do not get enough muscle building and maintaining exercise the last third of your life cannot possibly be of high quality. The biggest obstacle and problem to getting older is the loss of strength which only happens because of years (even decades) of inactivity.

That is why you fall over and break a hip, that is why you get disabled and they put you in a wheelchair, and that is why you end up in a nursing home because you have lost your precious strength from not using it. You will also age at an accelerated rate as without your muscles being worked there is no way that you can keep your 'growth and repair' hormones at optimal levels and without them cells and tissues wither, decay and die.

This is where disease and disability kick in when the body becomes weak and vulnerable. Although aging hastens the process it is not the main factor. It is the inactive years that are the problem. Many people believe that get enough activity even when they get none at all so maybe it is just wishful thinking it could be so easy.

It takes more than pottering around all day to keep your strength. You need at least two sessions each week performing a proper strength training program. Low intensity activities like walking, gardening or working around the house do count towards an active lifestyle but you also need to work your muscles under a load through their ranges of movement to stimulate the 'youth' hormones the will slow down the aging process.

But the good part is when muscle tone and strength are restored and take up their support positions the strain on all of the bodies systems is reduced. Fatigue just melts away and your energy level will increase. This of course means all of your everyday tasks and activities will be easier to perform. You will have energy left over to pursue a hobby or an interest that you get enjoyment from rather than being too tired to bother.

Your strength training program is such an easy and effective solution to stop accelerated aging, to retain youthfulness for as long as possible and give protection from disease. Seek the help of a fitness professional to get you started. You will kick yourself for not getting going a long time ago but it is never too late so grab it while you can and don't look back.
