They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and this photo of a determined woman getting some ab work done at her local playground speaks volumes. Here are my take-aways:
You are as young (or as old) as you feel.
Strength training helps fight the aging process, so work on building lean muscle whenever and wherever you can!
When you ignore the excuses and do the work, you’ll always feel better after you exercise.
Enjoy a little spontaneous fitness yourself today. Your body will thank you!
