Did you know by changing your posture, with a very specific technique I learned years ago, you can construct your body stronger, seem leaner, taller and be healthier too! That’s right. whether you change the way you stand, sit and walk, you can change your level of fitness. But first, some history …

Lessons Learned: Many moons ago, I was what was known as an “aerobics queen.” At one day, I was teaching fourteen high affect (now called crazy whether you ask me) classes per week. For those of you who don’t know what high affect is, just suppose a person jumping up and down in place, running side to side and frantically flailing their arms all for the sake of raising their heart rate, getting more toned and burning fat right before your very eyes. Talk about “smoking!”

Burning fat …”smoking”… get it?

Anyway, as I beat up my poor feet and legs by and by

again, my body began to rebel. I would wake up in the AM, gingerly place each foot upon the floor, one at a duration and ease my body weight onto them. Screaming pain would shoot up the front of my shins as I would gasp, wincing and shaking my head. thereupon ever so slowly, I would shuffle to my bathroom, wipe the sleep out of my eyes and prepare for another day of mania. Shin splints were not fun. I had pounded my feet into the ground so tough that my poor muscles were nearly shredded in my lower legs. whether you happen to remember those days of yesteryear, we were crazy to go to the extremes that we did. I ended up learning that going to extremes did not necessarily pay off. Now, I do all that I can to try to stay fit with minimal damage to my body! That includes the way I stand. And walk. And sit!

Change your posture, change your life? You bet … Read on!
