A fit focused lifestyle doesn’t just increase lifespan, it improves quality of life.

A graphic example of this concerns one of my female clients who has recently entered her senior years.

Her husband, who is 68 yrs old thinks that she is foolish to pay me money to help her regain her fitness.

Last week, he installed a bar beside his toilet to help him get on and off.

He is only 68 yrs old and because he is overweight and weak due to inactivity, he can’t get off the toilet using only leg strength.

What is he going to do when he is 80?

I told you it was going to be graphic – sorry
