Life Long Health

Posted by admin on August 19th, 2010 and filed under Exercise Program for Seniors | No Comments »

Life long health is such which indicates that health is the source of all happiness by focusing a life without facing any health hazards in life. Life long health shows happy life throughout the whole life. But life is made up of sobs, sniffles, smiles and sniffles predominating. Dr. Bob Delmonteque says,” Grow younger as you grow”. In my opinion, Youth is the best season of life and such youth is possible to be achieved by adopting the policy of health care. If we grow young we should know that such season needs to be continued till death by dint of merit and hardihood. Life long health is a very intricate object because it is such phenomena with which a man can fulfill his self-actualization needs rather than physical, safety, security and egoistic needs.

Dr. Delmonteque is America’s premier senior health consultant. At 84 years of age, Bob Delmonteque runs marathons, cycles 120 miles, and bench presses over 250 pounds. It is possible in case of other humans because physical care in respect of livelihood side by side is essential by a thorough planning virtually. We can plan for regular physical exercise like running, jumping, walking, mediating, and moving limbs by way of modern techniques and tools. Dr. Delmonteque has trained Hollywood legends like John Wayne, Errol Flynn, Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable, and contemporary stars like Matt Dillon. He is a senior editor and consultant to Joe Welder’s Muscle and fitness magazine. At the age of 65, Dr. Bob Delmonteque observed that his cadaver was early to go downhill. Rather than face a gradual decline in physical ability, he made a clear decision to challenge aging and develop younger as he grew older. Almost 20 years later, his most recent untouched; photos prove that that you can be in better shape at 84 than you were at 64.

I think that life long health is an arduous achievement by virtue of self-determination and dedication of honest health care system to enjoy happy life in weal and woe through thick and thin. It is a basic critic to rectify errors in life by cultivation of physical exercise. It should be the finite criteria to acquire such periodicity on human goals.

Principle of Safe Exercise: When people initiate to exercise, they often push their bodies too far. The more exercise that is done, the higher the risk of overuse and traumatic injuries. Self-control is the key to safe exercise. In this respect, sufficient measures need to be taken not to try to do too much too soon. Safe exercise programs should always establish at a snail’s pace and step by step build up rapidity, power, and concentration.

Safe Exercise Guidelines: There are lots of guiding principles for safe exercise that may be enumerated as follows:

To Use Proper Equipment. We can replace our athletic shoes as they wear out. Such wearing happen to be comfortable, loose-fitting clothes that allow us moving freely and are light enough to discharge body heating. When exercising in cold weather, dress in removable layers play vital role and suitable for proper cleanliness. To Warm Up. We can warm up to prepare to exercise, even before stretching. We can run in place for a few minutes, breathe slowly and deeply, or gently rehearse the motions of the exercise to follow. Warming up increases our heart and blood flow rates and loosens up other muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints. To Stretch. Beginning stretches slowly and carefully until reaching a point of muscle tension. We can hold each stretch for 10 to 20 seconds, and then slowly and carefully release it. We should inhale before each stretch and exhale as we release. We need to do each stretch only once. We should never stretch to the point of pain, always maintain control, and never bounce on a muscle that is fully stretched. To Take our Time. We should move through the full range of motion with each repetition. Breathe regularly to help lower our blood pressure and increase blood supply to the brain. To drink Water. We need to drink enough water to prevent dehydration, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. We should drink 1 pint of water 15 minutes before we start exercising and another pint after you cool down. Have a drink of water every 20 minutes or so while you exercise. To Cool Down. We should make cooling down the ultimate segment of our keep fit routine. It should take twice as long as our warm up. We need to slow our motions and lessen the intensity of our movements for at least 10 minutes before we stop completely. This phase of a safe exercise program should conclude our skin is dry and we have cooled down. To take Rest. We should reschedule regular days off from exercise and rest when tired. We should bear in mind whilst in fatigue, soreness, and pain is good reasons not to exercise.

In view of the above it is evident that we should exercise safely otherwise like over exercise, it is harmful for health and as such we should take regular physical exercise which is essential to maintain physical health all the time. Physical exercise should not be adopted on irregular terms but it should be based on tentative planning and on the basis of proper guidelines.

Seniors Beware, Health And Fitness Equals Great Sex

Posted by admin on July 28th, 2010 and filed under Senior Fitness | No Comments »

Having a great sex life by adults over 60 is largely dependent on health and lifestyle. Their children and grandchildren are having a hard time getting used to the facts of life, that their aging parents or grandparents might still be enjoying sex. The baby boomers that are actually the original ‘flower children’ started the sexual revolution over 40 years ago. For a lot of them who are over 60, the revolution is still goin’ strong ‘though it is an undeniable fact more than a few of them are experiencing problems in getting the va-va-vroom back in the old engine.

Sexual arousal doesn’t die when a person gets older. Aging is simply a period in life. It does not mean that a person becomes physically or sexually unappealing nor does it mean you become less interested in sex as you age.

According to a recent study, the number of seniors in their 70′s who are sexually active – and are bragging about it being great sex – is increasing. Also, older women are indicating being satisfied with their sex lives. There’s an increase in the number of these women who are reporting having an orgasm during sex and a decrease in the number who report not having an orgasm. There also is a general increase in the number of women who are reporting high sexual satisfaction. Though not as many women are reporting low satisfaction with their sex lives, it is a different situation for men – there has been an increase in the number of men who are reporting not being satisfied. Probably, this is due to the new idea of men accepting responsibility for sexual failure instead of blaming the opposite sex, according to the authors.

The coverage by the media of retired baby-boomers and their older cousins paint a picture of seniors that are a homogeneous group who jump into bed and ‘hook-up’ with great abandon. Sex is now a Fountain of Youth. In fact, the diversity in sexual interest and activity in the over 65 crowds is as diverse as the individuals who are part of that group. It is evident that the later years can be a time of relief since there are no children hiding in nearby bedrooms, and you don’t have to worry about jumping up early in the A.M. to head for work. For many of us, this is a time we are free to explore sexual expression in ways never before realized. A time to cast away the societal expectations of earlier years. For others, they no longer worry about sexual performance, and seek other forms of companionship and sharing.

Regarding health, one fascinating recent study found that older men having more than two orgasms per week have a lower mortality rate. Of course, these numbers demonstrate a correlation between sex and longevity; the numbers do not show that sex prolongs life. More than likely, the answer is that older people who are well enough to engage in sexual activity are more than likely also healthier in general. But I believe that sexual activity can be and is physically, intellectually, and even spiritually fulfilling. Also, it’s considered a good form of exercise, and it can stimulate the brain and promote good mental function.

Today’s older adults are active, on the go and still doing many of the things they enjoyed in their younger years, a healthy sexual relationship can positively affect all aspects of your life, including your physical health and self-esteem.

You might get the idea from movies and TV that sex is only for younger adults, but that’s not true. Man’s need for intimacy is ageless. Humans never outgrow the need for affection, emotional closeness and intimate love and they never will. People still have their sexual fantasies and desires into their 80s and 90s.

It’s true that sex in the 70′s and 80′s is not the same as in the 20s, but it can be as fulfilling and as enjoyable. Understanding the changes your bodies are going through will help you prepare for the challenges you’ll face. These changes can affect sexual relationships. The physical changes are the most often discussed, but psychological issues must also be considered. Testosterone regulates the sex drive in both men and women. The good news is, most aging men and women produce the testosterone levels required to maintain their interest in sex. Some changes that occur in your body may make some aspects of sex more difficult; with these changes you will have a reason to try new positions and techniques.

Here’s news you can use! A study at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor has found that caffeine may hold the secret to a better sex life for seniors. They found that among married men, 59% that didn’t drink coffee had trouble getting it up when needed while only 36% of the same group who did drink coffee reported similar problems. Of course, this correlation between coffee and sex might just be a statistic. The group that chooses to drink coffee might just be healthier overall.

It is a known fact, better health translates into better sex lives, healthy people are more likely to engage in sex and not just sex, but good sex, and to actually express an interest in more sex. So, lets make sure we do all we can to live healthy and enjoy our later years fully.

Since the author is in the over 60 group, he knows how important good health is to senior citizens. Here is a web site that has a lot of information you can use for sure:
