The book I’ve attached needs reading to see where our world and people are going with technology. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Remotely-Controlled-Television-Damaging-Lives/dp/0091906903/sr=1-2/qid=1169028869/ref=sr_1_2/026-4692462-5427667?ie=UTF8&s=books Separate The Body From Technology I welcome the advances in technology, but I realize that the human body must be kept separate from our fast way of thinking. The body isn’t new. We’ve been around for a long time. Real change requires real time. Shortcuts usually turn into dead ends. We can’t gain strength behind the keyboard. You still need to get up and put in the work. The old timers didn’t need any of the fancy gadgets that you’ll find today. Looking back in time is all the proof that you need to determine what you actually do need. Stay consistent, stay determined, and the results will come. Ironically, slow and steady is often the fastest and most productive route. The statement below is what really impressed me about this article.

Separate The Body From Technology

I welcome the advances in technology, but I realize that the human body must be kept separate from our fast way of thinking. The body isn’t new. We’ve been around for a long time. Real change requires real time. Shortcuts usually turn into dead ends. We can’t gain strength behind the keyboard. You still need to get up and put in the work. The old timers didn’t need any of the fancy gadgets that you’ll find today. Looking back in time is all the proof that you need to determine what you actually do need.

Stay consistent, stay determined, and the results will come. Ironically, slow and steady is often the fastest and most productive route.

Isometrics and pilates were very popular exercises in the early part of the 20th century. They are great and it's nice to see that they are making a comeback.

Most of the old school methods in weight training are the best for today. We don't need all these supplements and machines out there. I have to agree about old school.
