MOVEMENT IS THE ESSENCE OF LIFE
By Sensei Dave Beardsley

With winter months rapidly approaching, many will soon be making New Year’s resolutions. A common one is “I’m going to get in shape”. Like most resolutions, the effort put into them tends to fade pretty quickly after the holiday season. In the quest to live a longer and healthier life, many people will turn to supplements, herbal remedies and other forms of complementary medicine as an easy fix. I support holistic health practices completely, but MY choice for improving and extending life won’t be found solely in a bottle or a pill.

It is a remedy that requires no additional studies to prove its effectiveness. What is this miracle? Exercise!! All that is required is a lifestyle change!

Let’s face it, we can’t completely prevent our bodies from aging. As we age, it is known that the body will lose strength. When we lose our strength and fitness, we can lose autonomy, often having to depend on others to accomplish what we desire. As you’ve heard before, “if you don’t use it, you’ll lose it.” A personal fitness trainer should have the goal to give YOU life fitness skills that you will always feel good about and can be used forever. The advantage to choosing a one-on-one training coach is that you have one person completely focused on YOUR needs and YOUR abilities. It is well known that this type of support is so important to maintaining the personal resolve to stay in the great physical condition.

My system of exercise is based on 30+ years of martial arts and fitness training. The aspect that sets this system apart is the use of self-defense training, martial arts/boxing drills, cardio and free weights. Did you know that weight-lifting is one of the fastest-growing U.S. fitness activities (and fully endorsed by the American Heart Association)? Our workout program is strategically developed to make the workout be extremely fun, active, and produces the best results in the shortest time. A background of very diverse training helps me bring this program to you.

If you want to have the best possible jump start on fitness, try a personal trainer. Your biggest hurdle is just deciding to make fitness a priority. We bring athletic skills to your growing fitness program; but even more importantly, you will gain a trainer who pushes you to be your personal best! Learn more at www.SenseiDave.net
