My wake-up call
A little over one year ago, I faced a serious challenge to my health related to age. Let me be frank, I was frightened. In fact, the first thing I did was panic. When I had calmed down enough to do some preliminary research about antiaging strategies, what I found convinced me that the same systems science I had practiced all my professional life could solve health problems most people attribute to growing old, caused more often by poor nutrition and inactivity than by aging itself.What I discovered
What I found convinced me that, although "aging" has special meanings for scientists, more often "aging" is shorthand for ignorance and inertia, and "anti-aging" is shorthand for cosmetic products and services. We base our beliefs about growing old on traditional social and cultural expectations. As we grow older we become feeble because we mold ourselves to the stereotypes we have inherited from our parents and our grandparents—we follow negative models. To combat aging we must find positive models and mold ourselves to new mental images of health, fitness, and appearance. We must erase the old mental program with its expectations of decline and decay and replace it with a new mental program with expectations of renewed fitness and vitality.That's what I mean by anti-aging strategy: use it or lose it! You already know that. Why not get your act together now? Why wait until you are in a wheelchair wishing you had taken the other road—the one less traveled?
During the first year of my program I regained flexibility, endurance and strength and shrank my waistline from 37 to 32 inches, losing 40% body fat in the process with better eating habits but without dieting.
