    At a school I once worked at, all students were required to exercise at least 1 hour a day. High intensity, fun workouts. This was as well as their PE lessons. Their academic achievements and exam results were outstanding and more importantly the students were very happy.

    Discipline is the KEY to everything we want to achieve. And it's the hardest thing.

    Thank you for an excellent, thorough, presentation😊 Hopefully you have inspired many! I have been active all my life along with being a mom, partner, career professional, etc. The key for me was enjoying whatever activity I could work into my schedule, but always doing something. At 73, that key has also included adapting to physical changes and challenging myself while not taking unnecessary risks. I am so grateful for my heath and mobility at this stage of life because I wake up every day ready to enjoy myself: cycling (road and mountain), kayaking, golfing, xc skiing, snowshoeing, hiking and a daily flexibility/joint program called Essentrics. My husband, at 80 years old shares the same activities and is very strong, healthy and motivated. I have had my share of challenges in life, but staying strong physically has certainly helped me through those times. I hope sharing this will help others on their journey!

    Thanks so much, man. Really appreciate. I used to be a professional soccer player and at the same time I also was going to athletism in order to improve my speed and stamina. I have to get back on track, now I love trail running, sky running, marathons and ultramarathons in nature. Keep up inspiring poeple🙏

    I started exercising because I have had a really bad health condition since I was a child. Then I think working out and balance diet is the only way that help me to get out of this nightmare. At the first time, I did it alone but patiently. And then I found some companions, which really boosts my energy and resilience. I keep doing it as my hobby, and now it becomes my habit. I enjoy my quality me-time whenever I'm working. And I realize that it's not only about getting healthier but also the feeling of enjoyable and really eager in something u love so much

    I like to the quote “exercise is a lifestyle “ thank you for this presentation… I have been trying but always find excuses… “I am tired after working all day” let me take a rest for few mins and start but never get to start “I need to eat first, I am hungry” after eating … “I need to wait at least half an hour” then that becomes longer and late to do any exercise. I cannot get up early in the morning… lots if excuses… Discipline is key issue for me. By the way, your mum is indeed a great inspiration. Well done and thank you for this presentation 🙏
