As we know, the best and most effective leaders inspire positive change by example. It is very easy to spot an individual who talks the talk and walks the walk as he or she stands out for all the right reasons. I speak to you via first-hand experience, empirical evidence and of course integrity.
Patients who are hospitalized, regardless of the reason, are almost always encouraged by medical staff to try to get back on their feet as soon as possible even if only to take a few steps from their hospital bed to the nurse's station. It is never about sitting or displacing body-weight onto hands on a stationary bike unless the patient is physically unable to stand. In these cases, strength-training helps to compensate for the absence of the ability to walk. In fact many amputees and wheel-chair bound individuals are stronger and fitter than those who can walk because each and every muscle group is properly and consistently strengthened and conditioned via progressive strength-training using challenging yet safe external loads. Those who are able to stand yet choose a stationary bike are in effect choosing a child's bicycle with training wheels that never come off. Don't just sit there and take the hype you have been fed lying down. Optimum strength, power and endurance are achieved when you stand on your own two feet both literally and figuratively. Learn the facts about how to achieve optimum health and fitness so you can judge for yourself. Only you can take the first step. CLIMB, LIFT AND EAT WELL...
