If you're at the local grocery store and a strangers kid in a cart says "Look out dad, it's backing up", at the sound of your beeper going off, chances are you're carrying a few extra pounds. You know you should exercise, lose weight, and get in shape, but your brain is set to default, and it's telling you all the reasons why you can't. Here are the sinister seven.Excuse #1 I Don't Have Time
Everyone has only 24hrs in their day unless you're from some other place than earth. You don't have to exercise for an hour a day if your obligations don't allow it. Twenty minutes here, ten minutes there. People are getting great results with 7 minute workouts. It adds up. Just do something. Anything is better than nothing.
Excuse #2 I Don't Have Energy
Fluid can boost your energy. Vitamins can boost your energy. Sunlight can boost your energy. Even deep breathing can boost your energy. Exercise will certainly boost your energy. Take a stroll in the sun and in five minutes you're going to feel better.
Excuse #3 I Have My Parents Bad Genetics
We can't keep blaming others for our current condition. We are responsible for our bodies, no one else. Genetics only account for about 30% of our phenotype, and the fact that our parents may be predominantly endomorphic has little to do with our eating habits. The choices we make are not genetically inherent.
Excuse #4 I Have A Rare Medical Condition That Makes Me Gain Weight
Here's how to fix that. Turn off your television or mute the commercials that ask: "Do you suffer from dizziness, faintness, or shortness of breath?, than ask your Doctor about this drug, that drug, and that other drug, made exclusively in the US by Who Do We Scam and How". Commercials can really cause us to feel like we might have an illness. Get outside and enjoy life.
Excuse #5 I've Tried Every Diet And Exercise Program Out There And Nothing Has Worked
All we really need is ONE diet and exercise program that we can stick to. The best diet will always be the one we do.
Excuse #6 I Like Being Bigger, I Just Want To Bulk Up
Denial is not just a river in Egypt. You may like being bigger, but your heart doesn't. Bulking up is easy. The only arm curls you need to do is to lift that food filled fork from the plate to your mouth - Hey, a baboon can do that too. Bulky bodies are a dime a dozen these days, but to see a truly well sculpted, muscular, lean, natural physique with classical symmetry is rare. These Nero's of nutrition make up less than 1% of the population. If you have seen one, it is hard not to notice and admire.
Excuse #7 I'm Too Old To Exercise
Ever heard of Jack Lalanne, Madonna, Harrison Ford, Sylvester Stallone, Brad Pitt? These guys and gals are not spring chickens. Some of them are winter warriors on the home stretch of their lives. Yet they're sailing that stretch in healthy functional bodies. Its not that they're in great shape for an old person, they're in great shape period. Some have cardiac ages younger than individuals in their 20's. Why is this? They have lower resting heart rates because their bodies are conditioned. That means a conditioned heart, and a conditioned heart can perform more work with less effort. Let's imagine two identical twins (same genetics), both inherit a rare heart disorder that predisposes them to heart failure at 1.5 trillion heart beats. One twin lives a sedentary lifestyle whilst the other adopts a healthier active lifestyle. As a result twin # 1 has an average resting heart rate of 80 beats/minute , and twin # 2 has an average resting heart rate of 40 beats/minute.
Twin # 1: 80 beats/min - 4800 beats/hr - 115,200 beats/day - 42,048,000 beats/year
Twin # 2: 40 beats/min - 2400 beats/hr - 57,600 beats/day - 21,024,000 beats/year
As a result twin # 1 will reach heart failure in his 30's, but twin # 2 will reach heart failure well into his 60's. That is 30 additional years to spend enjoying your life and being with the ones you love. Watching your boys grow to become men, leading your daughters down the isle, seeing your grandchildren fall in love and hearing your great grandchildren utter their first words. A little diet and exercise can go a long way. It is a big payoff for a very acceptable investment. What would YOU do with another 30 years of life, 20 years, or even 5 more years? What price would YOU pay, or to what lengths would you go?
