WOOF: Media Monday - Prevent Sagging!



Everywhere I look, some worthwhile organization is promoting walking, running, yoga, exercise classes, or water aerobics, especially for WOOFers. Since, of late, my mirror has started screaming, “You’ve gotten totally out of shape!”

I got my doctor's permission to join a fitness club and start exercising. I found the perfect fit. An aerobics class for WOOFers. I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour, but, by the time I got my leotards on, the class was over.

That’s why I’m adopting a new program to prevent sagging. Eat till the wrinkles fill out.

My Worst Fear - Walking!

Me, walking (in my dreams!)


Now that the weather is breaking, I’m forced to face my worst fear: Walking! I know people who adore walking (Diana, aka, d.d. dawg, among them), but I’d almost rather wash windows! (almost) What’s wrong with me?

Anyone out there have any alternatives? Not exercising is Not an option. My thighs are creating so much friction , I’m afraid of starting a fire!

What’s your favorite “Over Fifty” exercise? Even if it’s walking, let us know how you make it fun!

Thoughts on walking (courtesy of friend and WOOFer, Donna:

I like long walks,
especially when they are taken
by people who annoy me.

************************************

The only reason I would take up walking
is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.

*************************************

I have to walk early in the morning,
before my brain figures out what I'm doing.

*************************************

Every time I hear the dirty word exercise,
I wash my mouth out with chocolate.

***************************************

We all get heavier as we get older,
because there's a lot more information in our heads.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

****************************************

You could run this over to your friends,
But just e-mail it to them!
