subject: Discover Our Very Own Personal Fountain Of Youth [print this page] We humans have been inspired to develop and preserve our youthful vigor since ancient times. Anti-aging remedies, injections, pills, potions and surgical procedures are in high demand these days to hide the ravages of the aging process. We should not complain too much about getting older though as it is a privilege that not everybody is gifted.
Today we have enough understanding about the process of aging to attempt to slow it down and delay it. Changes to the outside of our body with cosmetic type procedures may make us feel and look better but the intervention that has the most youthful affect comes from slowing down aging at a cellular level where it counts the most.
The real 'Fountain of Youth' that can renew and rejuvenate our body cells involves stimulating 'growth and repair' hormones that are sitting there waiting for the right instructions to be released. These instructions can only come from our muscles when they are kept strong and healthy with the right activity.
We have only two choices - to allow our body to weaken from not doing enough muscle building and maintaining activity and become susceptible to disease and injury, or, keep it strong with proper exercise. You can only get the benefits of special 'youth' hormones when your body is stimulated to release them through putting your muscles through their paces a couple of times each week.
This immediately takes your body from a sluggish fat storing one to an energetic fat burning one. By increasing muscle strength all other systems and processes are strengthened as well including the immune system which is your body's armor and defense system against modern killer diseases that stalk our every move.
For the last few decades we have been told by 'so called' experts that all we need to do to stay healthy is a bit of walking or some other low intensity activity. Well, this is not enough to keep our muscular system strong, you need proper exercise if you want anti-aging benefits to keep you youthful looking and feeling.
Our bodies have been designed to be very physically active but we have removed this activity from our lives to make them 'easy' and 'convenient'. We have forgotten the most basic need of our body 'keep using it or you will lose it'.
When you add proper physical activity back into your life you are dipping into a true 'Fountain of Youth' to improve work and leisure performance You can become strong, lean, fit, banish fatigue, relieve stress and anxiety, manage mental and emotional health, reduce your risk of chronic disease and reclaim the youthful zest and energy you need to live life to the absolute fullest and pursue all your interests.
You will look so much younger and as the 'Fountain of Youth' promised you will feel younger as well adding both quantity and quality to your life. Is that not what we all want?
