The Power of Example

A recent article in the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/12/health/12heart.html?bl&ex=1227070800&en=0fd3c2f76367617a&ei=5087%0A) got me thinking.  We target the 40-60 crowd here at Body for the Ages.  Are we focusing on the wrong group?  Don’t children need the help more?

The thing is, we teach our children through our example.  If we let it be OK for us to be dangerously overweight, we demonstrate to our children that it’s OK for them too.  If we constantly reach for the cookie over the celery, we tell our children it is OK for them too.  If we spend every afternoon on the couch, we tell our children that’s OK for them too.

If we die early from heart disease, is that one lesson enough to undo all the others?  Maybe.  But why bet a child’s life on it?

The great thing about our example is that it works in all directions.  If we turn around ourselves, we show our kids that they can do.  That’s one of the great things about Pax, he shows that you can come back from nearly being dead to become National Bodybuilding Champion.  It’s one of the great things about the President-Elect, he shows that any child can grow up to be president.

And that’s what you got to be for your kids.  You got to be the example that anybody can get fit.  That anybody can achieve the body of their dreams, and reduce their heart risks in the process.

And we will help you do it.  Join us here.

What they don’t want you to know about steriods

Category: Uncategorized — paxbeale @ 5:47 pm

Here is a secret you may not want to know about. You obviously can accelerate muscle growth through the use of anabolic steroids, human growth hormone, insulin, or a combination thereof. So far, that’s good if you aren’t afraid of drugs, and the fear of the gendarmes arresting you.

However, the secret that you should know about to offset more rapid muscle growth, is that men’s testicles shrink up and become non-functional, while the individual is taking the anabolic steroid. Usually the testicles will become active again, but after cessation from anabolic steroids, there is a window of time before your natural body’s ability to produce semen and generate erections. The reason is that the body will become reliant on the anabolic steroid to produce semen, and the male’s testicles got lazy and became inactive.

I will share some negative secrets with you women. Yes, the drugs I referenced will reduce fat and increase muscle mass, and shape your body moderately or to the extreme. An anabolic steroid is synthetic testosterone, or male hormone. So, you women should think twice before using an anabolic steroid. Here is a real Insider Pro Secret: you women will suddenly get a lowered voice, like a male. A little more aggravating, but not quite so obvious to the world at large, you will get hair on your nipples, and your clitoris will become oversized.

So, there are some positive secrets, and some negative secrets.
