Maybe even make you look good shirtless and/or in a bikini. Here's the thing about going to the gym: it can improve your physical health. Oh, and also the guy over at the squat rack, grunting at a decibel level somewhere between train whistle and snowmobile. Such is the world that the departed Jack LaLanne made: protein bars and acai berry shakes, cardio kickboxing and P90X, shake weights and Bowflex machines and gyms teeming with America's sweaty, straining masses, yearning to be fit. "Laugh as much as you breathe, love as long as you live.Editor's note: With the passing of fitness pioneer Jack LaLanne on Sunday, revises our user's guide to the gym in order to salute LaLanne. "Music touches us emotionally, where words alone can't." 15. "I'm having too much fun today to worry about tomorrow." 14. "I pretty much try to stay in a constant state of confusion just because of the expression it leaves on my face." 13. I think we are all somewhat screwy, every single one of us." 12.

It's because they've been strong for too long." 11. "I was always fascinated by people who are considered completely normal, because I find them the weirdest of all." 9."Love is not blind it simply enables one to see things that others fail to see." 10. The only thing I have a problem with is being labeled." 8. "I think the thing to do is to enjoy the ride while you are on it." 7. It depends on how good is your heart and how good you treat others." 6.

"Being a good person doesn't depend on your religion, your race or your skin color or your culture. "The problem is not the problem the problem is your attitude about the problem." 5. Because if you really loved the first you wouldn't have fallen for the second." 4. "If you love two people at the same time, choose the second. "You can close your eyes to the things you don't want to see, but you can't close your heart to the things you don't want to feel." 3. "One day the people that didn't believe in you will tell everyone how they met you" 2. Nobody likes a cross fitter, so don't be that person.ġ. But when your back "is as crooked as a politician", don't come crying to me, because I'll be the first to say I told you so. If you want scoliosis, and to look like you're convulsing while you're working out, be my guest. Just don't get roped into their "lifestyle" and paleo diet bulls**t. Getting 7-9 hours will help prevent that wall that everyone seems to hit around 3 p.m.

When you are more rested, you will have more energy to go about your daily routine. Trust me, you'll feel a lot better and you'll see the changes that you want. Drink water instead of pop (soda), have a vegetable with every meal, eat more chicken (grilled NOT fried), and definitely cut back on the consumption of alcohol. McDonald's, Taco Bell, and other fast food chains are a big no no. You have to be conscious about what you are putting in your stomach. This means you can't eat/drink what you want anymore. You aren't young and your metabolism isn't what it used to be.

That's when you begin to plateau and results will become less noticeable. But be careful to not get stuck in the same workout routine. Once you start to get the hang of it again, that's when you start to get into heavier weights and lesser reps.

Start with light weights and higher reps if you have to. You will hurt yourself if you try to do too much too soon. So let me say this, START WITH LIGHT WEIGHTS. You probably can't put up as much weight as you used to back in the glory days when you could have gone D-1 but you blew out your knee. You don't have to be out there for hours on end, but a short little 15-20 minutes can make a world of a difference for your health. But for those of you crazy enough to actually enjoy running, well then stick with it. Nobody likes running, so if running is your Achilles heel, well then walking will be for you.
