The 7 Common Mistakes
Executives make that cost them their Health and Fitness
Mistake #1
Not Taking Responsibility for your Body
Can you not brush your teeth daily?
Or not take your Ferrari in for maintenance?
You know the consequences:
• Bad breath and Rotten teeth
• Your Ferrari is going to Stall.
It is the same with your body.
You need to take Responsibility. Your Body is Priceless.
Mistake #2
Not Making Time to Exercise
“I don’t have time”
Think about this:
Prevention is Cheap. Cure is Expensive
A more serious note by Edward Stanley“Those who think they have no time for bodily exercise will
sooner or later have to find time for illness.”
Our body is silently undergoing faster aging due to daily habits of spending long hours at the computer.
Your Body is your Greatest Asset.
Mistake #3
Not Resting Enough
Working non-stop or late into the night
• Deadlines?• Hooked on the Web?• Perfectionist?• Fear of losing out?
Studies have shown chronic sleep deprivation may lead to many health problems such as obesity, or
cardiovascular diseases.
Everyone needs rest adequate rest and sleep.
Spend less time on Facebook
Mistake #4
Doing any Generic Exercise Program
Why pay for a fitness coach?
Many exercises are available free on the Internet or cheaper to join group classes in the gym.
Are they addressing your individual needs?
You might have a weak back due to long hours sitting at the computer.
If you start running without proper training, you might start having back pain
It is not a one size fits all
Prevention is cheaper than cure.
Mistake #5
Flawed Design Program
Are you insisting on building bulging muscles?
Then be prepared to look big BUT move like a block of wood.
Building bulging muscles alone will affect your joint mobility.
You might look good but your joints will be aging faster because of overly tight muscles.
Tight muscles lack endurance and energy.
Build mobility fitness – strength and flexibility in all your joints for more energy and healthier joints.
Mistake #6
Manage Physical Aches and Pains through Massages
It will provide relief to tired and overused muscles.
But the pain comes back as soon as you return to work.
Why?
Missing are strengthening and mobility exercises.
Address the muscle imbalances and re train muscles to proper functioning and movement.
Mistake #7
As long as I am not Overweight, I consider Myself Fit
It is a myth.
Skinny people can have physical aches and pains.
Because our body needs movement to stay healthy.
We are designed to move.
Without movement, the joints are not getting its regular “lubrication” to slow down
the aging process.
Mobility Fitness
It is more than physical fitness.
Physical Fitness = cardiovascular and strength
Missing element is Mobility
Mobility Fitness is strength & flexibility to move and Move with Quality.
Poor movements or movement dysfunctions are potential causes of physical aches and pains.
For example shoulder dysfunction.
