I hope everyone enjoyed Thanksgiving this year. I could go on forever about how wonderful my life has been over the last year and everything I have to be thankful for. I am most thankful for my family and friends. There is nothing in life better than love and there is a lot of love between my friends and family.
Back to the basics….
- We were barefoot, we made shoes with wood soles, we make shoes with rubber soles, we add air to those soles, we add gel to those soles, we add “shocks” to those soles… what’s next?
- we used the outdoors, bicycles, our bodies, odd objects and kettle bells and we were healthy; some geniuses invented stationary machines for exercises and we are now 66% overweight… what’s next?
- we used to eat our own food that we gardened and we were healthy; now we eat everything that is pre-made or from a drive thru window… what’s next?
There is a wonderful cycle happening to us as a human race. Everything we were doing 100’s of years ago when we were vibrant, healthy, hard working people was right! We don’t need fast food, we don’t need machines to perform our exercises for us, we don’t need fancy 100 dollar t-shirts and 150 dollar shoes. All science has been showing us over the last few years is that we are going back to the basics. Join the movement people!
What’s Next?
- In five years or so we will be training in bare feet! (Some of my clients and I have already started)
- We will never use machines to improve our functionality or improve our movement or improve our performance. Balls, bells, bands and bodyweight only! That is already happening as we speak!
- We will begin to take time out of our “self made hectic days” to be less hectic and actually prepare healthy foods that are fun and easy to eat. We will actually begin taking care of ourselves!
Don’t waste anymore time! Improve your life at Performance Playground.
