 Without regular, vigorous exercise, ultimate health and balanced weight cannot be achieved or maintained. Today most people work at some kind of job that requires very little physical exertion and have adopted an after-work lifestyle that includes almost no physical movement at all. Many today have become what we call 'couch potatoes.'
This lack of physical activity, along with a horrible diet, has produced most of today's physical problems. Over 60% of all American females are overweight, while over 70% of all American males are carrying excess weight.
Also, the lack of exercise has caused clogged arteries, immobile lymph, atrophied muscles, sluggish colons, and a lack of oxygen within the body. All of these problems can be improved or corrected with a regular, vigorous exercise program, along with a basic living foods diet. |

 WALKS
Of all forms of exercise, brisk walking is the one that brings most of the body into action. In no other exercise do you get the same harmony of coordinating muscles and the same perfect circulation of blood. Vigorous aerobic exercise is vital to life- it speeds up the metabolism and removes toxins stored in the body.
The Birchcreek “Jump Start Your Life” program includes guided, invigorating walks - the very best way to begin your day. Whatever your fitness level - from beginner to athlete - the daily morning walk is the way to wake up your metabolism and prepare the body for the adventures of the day! |
