Healthy Tips for Healthy Living
Sarcopenia is common as you age. That is unless you try to do something about it. Some muscle loss is a natural occurrence with age, but with proper diet and regular exercise you can increase your quality of life and more than likely have a longer lifespan.
Well, I had gotten to that point; I could feel the effects of sarcopenia, and I was not happy with it. I have been active, and had a physical job, however, as the years crept up, I notices the stairs seemed steeper; ones I was used to climbing.
Don't Be Satisfied with the Status Quo
At first, I tried to ignore it, soon I decided it was time to do something. I got an exercise bike. With regular use, others also noticed an improvement in my health. In time I also collected a few other pieces of exercise equipment.
I decided if it helped me, perhaps it would help others, too.
Now, I am not against using a gym, I have been a gym member a number of times throughout the years. However, it is convenient to be able to have equipment available any time of the day, without making a special trip to the gym.A Bright Idea
I Discovered Wealthy Affiliate
I discovered Wealthy Affiliate, and I got the bright idea that perhaps a website would be a way to promote exercise equipment as a way people could increase their health without needing to go to the gym.
There were (and still are) technical things to learn in running an online business. However, with the help of WA, I soon learned that there are others as well that are glad to make exercise a part of their life and add gym equipment to their home, also. And so, a small business was born.
Don't Forget to Get Your Sleep
From having the benefit of having all the helpful people here at Wealthy Affiliate, working on my website has become an enjoyable part of my life. At times I get so involved with posting, etc., that I can stay up all hours of the night working on it.
I don’t recommend losing your sleep over your job, just saying I am enjoying my experience here at WA. It is a great way to fill my retirement hours!

Wise words, my friend! At least, for right now, I am embracing the SLEEP portion! I will have to do more!
Jeff
We need balance. One of my first posts I wrote included the rhyme on 6 good doctors everywhere. - water, sunshine, air, exercise, rest, and diet.
Wow, your story is truly inspiring! It's amazing how you were able to turn your personal journey into a small business idea and help others along the way. I agree that having exercise equipment readily available at home can make a big difference, especially for those who may not have the time or ability to make it to a gym.
One extra idea that could be useful for others in the Wealthy Affiliate community is to consider incorporating social media into their business strategy. Social media platforms can be a great way to connect with potential customers and promote your products and services. With the training and resources available at WA, it's definitely worth exploring how social media can benefit your business.
Thank you for sharing your story and reminding us all to prioritize our health, while still enjoying our time working on our online businesses.
All the best, Julia
Hi Julia, to be honest, my husband found WA first and putting two and two together, it became a good fit for me. Later, he also took the leap and now he also enjoys blogging on WA as well.

Some excellent tips and advice here Carolyn... I certainly need to do better my friend!
They say sitting is the new smoking, and we do sit behind a computer frequently while blogging. I try to get in some time on my exercise equipment first thing in the morning, and in good weather, get out for some sunshine and fresh air, and take a walk.
We do indeed Carolyn!
Whilst my exercise equipment has been sitting dormant for quite some time now...
