It all started from a friend, a colleague, a peer . . .
From being bored with the same routine, from plateauing time and time again . . .
I wanted to get healthy, I wanted people around me who cared . . .

They called it constantly varied, functional movements, executed at high intensity . . .

We used to sit on the couch, turn on the TV, open a bag of chips (or whatever your guilty pleasure was), down a 2-liter of bubbly Coca-Cola, and veg.  You know the vegetative state - mindlessness, eyes glued to the 'tube, a slight glaze consistent with boredom, and the smell of whatever your eating permeating the air around you.

How

So I never did indicate in yesterday's blog exactly what ADL's stood for - in that regard, my apologies upfront.  ADL's stand for Activities of Daily Living and although that topic is ripe for talking about, I don't mind being optimistic and changing my tune for the better today.
