    I have recently injured my shoulder to the point of limited mobility.  I have to refrain upper body strength training.  All is not lost, however, as I still have plenty of body parts left to work with.  I have increased my cardio training and am working my legs and core.   i am even enjoying  new cardio opportunities.  I shall try water running, which will keep my legs and heart training while offering my arms some passive light resistance.   Where there is a will there is a way, I say.  My mother taught me that!  I suppose I will lose some of my upper body strength gains, but in time I will get it back!

    Are you thinking that because it is the holidays and goodies abound that you are going to indulge?  NO! NO! NO!  Now is the time to test your true resolve.  Leave the junk alone!  It has no place in the human body.  It destroys.  All that extra sugar will reduce your immune system’s ability to fight the colds and flu at this time of year.   You will have wasted your efforts to get healthy and fit.  You’ll feel sluggish, and then after the turn of the year, you will be just plain angry at yourself.  I see nothing positive in any of this.  LEAVE THE JUNK ALONE!
