Ten common sense fitness pointers for the over forty


  If you're a new reader , this year marks the first concerted effort I'm taking towards a fitter me  . 

I'm now in my mid forties , lost a huge amount in the first few months of sticking to a programme which increased in frequency each week . For the moment , I have reached a plateau , which can be frustrating  for some but requires a fair amount of drive to rise above .

Based on what I've observed so far , too many women push themselves beyond their personal capability , then become depressed and give up when they compare their progress or lack of progress , to other girls in their group .

Here's some common sense pointers I've applied to myself .


Self acceptance

I've reached the auntie age group already and I accept that .
No matter how much the truth may hurt , sometimes it's easier to embrace what you have already prepared yourself for .

For some women , ageing makes them miserable , angry even . They won't go down without a fight .

Purpose

Me . I want to be happy . I want to try and stay positive for as long as I can .Getting wired into a fitness regimen is my way of coping with the ageing process . Instead of mopping over a sluggish metabolism , nagging pains , grey hairs and wrinkles and join the fight to regain my youth , I focus on strengthening myself to tide the flow when it finally hits home .
