The 10 golden rules for making a difference to your health and wellbeing

Teaser

The purpose of this article is to provide readers with what is certainly common knowledge in the world of fitness and sports psychology, but would maybe not be so common in the public domain; which is where it is most urgently required. Rather than assess and discuss why this is the case and delay any further, it is time to make that knowledge public and continue the job of educating as many people as possible about physical exercise and optimising their endeavours for health and wellbeing. We have a body and that body needs maintenance in the form of exercise. It is our own personal responsibility to maintain that body whether we like it or not. Not the job of the surgeon as an extreme measure, or your horoscope or even the friend that occasionally manages to get you out of the house for a Sunday jog at the local park. And so we begin with what is possibly the most important aspect of not just fitness, but all areas of life………
