\"OLYMPUS<\/a>…their hardest to keep us all fit.\u00a0 If we took part in only one tenth of the available activities and exercise programs that are offered to us, we would be back to our adolescent weight, or at the very\u00a0least, our teenage weight.\u00a0\u00a0I think one of my current problems is I\u00a0heard, she is so skinny, for so many years, that I think I still am.\u00a0Sometimes we don’t accept what we currently look like until we unexpectedly catch a glimpse of ourselves in a mirror, and then it is a rude awakening.\u00a0 That’s me?\u00a0 We then diet for a day or two and are back to our fantasy vision of ourselves, until another mirror encounter.\u00a0 Over the years I have joined health clubs of all sizes and descriptions, with friends of all sizes and descriptions, and only one time, stuck to it with great regularity.\u00a0 I was in super shape, but as I recollect, I was in super shape when I joined.\u00a0 Maybe that is the difference.\u00a0 Twice I have had a personal trainer and I can only say that when you are a senior citizen, do not get a young male trainer that is trying to qualify to be a firefighter, as he\u00a0will have\u00a0very little enthusiasm about\u00a0your fitness.\u00a0 More than once I thought, if I was only 21 again, you’d be sorry.\u00a0 When he left for his new firefighter job I got a young woman and loved it.\u00a0 We talked, and talked, and talked.\u00a0 None of that firefighter exercising for me.\u00a0 Anyway, fitness is extremely important at this stage of our lives and we have so many things we can do.\u00a0 We have the Wellness Center,\u00a0 now MVP, \u00a0which is a full fledged fitness center, with trainers and classes and every piece of exercise equipment you can think of.\u00a0\u00a0We have four\u00a0Fitness Club’s at our Regional Recreation Centers, which also have exercise equipment.\u00a0 We have Walking Paths and I’m not sure how many people are familiar with The Villages FitnessTrail. It is located next to the Shuffleboard\u00a0 and Picnic Area, by Lake Miona Regional Recreation Center\u00a0 \"OLYMPUS<\/a>\u00a0 There is a pine straw path, beneath beautiful live oak trees,\u00a0that has nine exercise stations that have instructions as to how to do the exercise correctly.\"OLYMPUS<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0 At each station, the equipment has two different set-ups, depending upon one’s physical ability.\u00a0 I tried a couple of the easiest positions, and can’t imagine the shape I would be in if I completed all nine.\u00a0 This facility is just one more opportunity we have to maintain our health, and I have to thank\u00a0The Villages for all that they do to keep us healthy.\u00a0 Let’s show them that\u00a0they\u00a0CAN lead a horse to water, and\u00a0if there is lots of water, they may just drink.\u00a0 Happy exercising.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
