Aging Athletes and Weekend Warriors: Get off the Couch!

by BEYONDtheCheers in Sports 5/15/2013 11:00:00 PM

Tags: aging athlete aging baby boomers fitness athletes

Aging isn’t easy, especially for retired athletes. But it’s inevitable.
And despite daily fitness, a healthy diet and taking time to rest, the body needs more time to heal properly as we age. Baby boomers are one of the most active aging populations in history, with over 8,000 per day enrolling in Medicare.
“It isn’t the mountains ahead to climb that wear you out; it’s the pebble in your shoe.” Muhammad Ali, The Greatest
Muhammad Ali may have given all he had physically; including repeated abuse to his body. But he has made an effort to stay fit, despite losing portions of his physical and mental wellness. Ali has said he doesn’t feel sorry for himself and doesn’t want others to feel sorry for him either.
We are all getting older. Wouldn’t it be better for all of us to learn about aging-and embrace it and adapt-- rather than to deny it and fear it?
Sifu Slim joins us in conversation to share his vast knowledge on how you can get off of the side-lines and back into the game.

"My Issues Are Your Issues"

"My Issues Are Your Issues - from a real life point of view, not your typical entertainment fix" is a platform for all of my people who get up every morning to make today better than yesterday. Most of us aren't rich, so money can't fix everything. We are people who didn't go to college right after high school, trying to provide for our families by stretching our paycheck for two weeks, going back to college to be an example for our kids, and trying to make our marriages and relationships work.
I'm Felicia Nicole and I live in LA. I'm a mommy, a wife, an author, playwright, & a freelance writer - so my mind is always spinning. I'm far from perfect, I just take experiences from my life and I learn from it. I have a voice, and I have an opinion, so I like to tell it like it is. Listen in and share your thoughts & opinions with me.
