Word of caution

Once, I looked at mysElf and thought I looked "older." I knowwww .... poor perspective on my half. So, I focused on this exercise more and more ...

Just didn't seem to be working.

Well, in the beginning of the sun in gemini.... on a whim .. i shaved my beard off ... and the face of a young teen-ager was looking back at me. A touch too young looking for my "taste" .... but it was nice to see that the exercise works even in moments of doubt.

Consistency is really key (part of why I do it in the shower ... bc I happen to take those very consistently). My spirals start looking a little bit like the number 2 ... and finishes looking like a @ sign. I do three of them each time.

Naturally, I thought of all those angles, too.

Ok, I didn't ... and appreciate you're added insight, Quinnie.

Hope you win the lottery, Randall. My youthful appearance never really did much to effect me except during the times when I tend bar for a little extra money. Here I am carding so and so and I look perhaps younger than they (he he he).

(Tallies up his thoughtful posts and see they don't number that high .... considers the "quality over quantity angle.")

Yeah ... so .... I believe I've made some qualitative contributions this last year.

Yeah.

Yup.

Yes-sir-ee.

(Doesn't think anyone is buying it.)

Well, just you remember who well-wished you the most for That lottery ticket.

Literally speaking about the title of this thread, an intense weight lifting and aerobics (no more than one hour per day though) does make one look and feel at least 10 years younger. There are also resistance type facial exercises that reverse gravity effects on the face and make one look at least 10 years younger. I know it is not "the real thing" that we all are looking for, it is only part of the solution. Linda did say exercise was a step toward reverse aging and I know for a fact that is somewhat true, just that it has to be more intense than most people are willing to admit to themselves and it has to include muscle resistance (like weight training) training to be really effective.

When I am 19 again I will definitely still keep in the routine of lifting weights and running (no more than one hour per day).

I am 50 and people just drop their jaws when I tell them and I have been in better shape: Feeling a little fat and forty these days because I dropped the weight training regimen for too long now.

Sorry to hear that Linda had diabetes and makes me really wonder cuz I know that it is 100% curable and wondered that she did not also know that and take measures.

When I look at her younger pictures and then at her later pictures I do see "aging" but nothing that could not have been "reversed" by an intense workout regimen and some other things.

At my stage of knowledge about the body I believe I could write a program for anyone to help them to HEAL any structural or organic disease or deficiency.

I am now taking on the bigger problem of actually reversing people's age, not just a cheap imitation, you know!

I am open to any methodology or technology that contributes to this.

I am also looking for people who truly have acheived this effect and are willing to tell how they did it for themselves.

I believe that giving out the knowledge also brings in knowledge and that is why I decided to post here.

love,

Try not to get too hung up on how much you work out or what not. It certainly is important ... but the more you "stress" over it, the more you may allow doubt to creep in. Be confident that what you're doing is working for you. Don't believe ... know!
