As the New Year hangs around the corner, it's time to think about your health and fitness.
If you make an annual resolution to get fit, then I hope you've already achieved your goals. If not, then let's find a few ways to get on the right track.
I'm a workout enthusiast now, though I'm not a gym rat. Nor do I enjoy driving to fitness centers. I work out at home. That's probably the secret to my fitness success.
After reaching 50, the team sports fade away and it's time to go solo. You have to find different exercises that fit into your new lifestyle. I admit that solo exercises are not as fun as running with the guys on a basketball court. But neither is getting fat and lazy.
If the weather is cold or rainy outside, then take your action indoors. I do most of my exercise inside now: stair climbing, weight training, cycling, HIIT exercises and body weight workouts.
Besides dumbbells, the other most valuable piece of equipment I own is an indoor bicycle trainer. Over 10 years ago, I bought a Minoura bicycle trainer that hooked up to my mountain bike and transformed my balcony into a workout station.
I've put in countless miles in my apartment and raised a newborn son while keeping fit.
As the New Year approaches, it's time to put your resolutions to the test and get your fitness goals in shape.
