In Your 40’s

The Pros:  The good news is that by now you most likely know what you want and what you don’t. Add this security to some good old willpower and your efforts can be quite transformative. So whether you’ve been in the gym all along or have completely given up on all things sweaty, this is the decade to count on your wisdom as motivation to keep on, or get moving.

The Cons: Here come the bounce back blues. Your ability to recover after a tough workout or impromptu shop til you drop shopping spree even is not as strong anymore. Add this to the your already declining metabolism, bone and muscle mass loss that started last decade and you have entered the land of “not being active = not being an option.” The longevity of you health is depending on your health and fitness commitments now more than ever.

The Game Plan: Get creative about your workouts and you will be more likely to stick to them. Bump up your weight training while inviting relaxing practices like yoga and meditation to your regimen and flex both your muscles and your mind. Oh and know this–flexibility is also your friend when it comes to your diet. Start focusing on foods that are rich in good carbs, lean protein and healthy fat and ban cutting calories once and for all.
