Keeping Fit - Me and My Dogs!


It is not easy to keep fit today. If you live in a high rise apartment building like me, there are not many outside activities. I ride the elevator to the 35th floor, get off the elevator and go to the park one block away and walk my dogs. Click Here!
I know walking is the best exercise I can get. If it is good for me, it is good for my dogs. I have them on a chicken diet, you know. I do not think dogs are affected by such things as high blood pressure. However, I know people are and exercise is one of the best ways to get it down and keep it down!

Now dogs are good for people to have around them and I have heard petting your dogs helps lower your blood pressure. There are so many things caused by high blood pressure. I cannot afford to have mine be high. Click Here!
What would happen to my dogs?

Do you know the complications of high blood pressure? There are so many of them. Let me think. There is heart disease, heart attacks, heart failure, kidney failure, a stroke, and many more. Doctors recommend we exercise, eat healthy, eat less salt, drink plenty of water, check our blood pressure often, and exercise some more. Click Here!

We do not exercise enough anymore. Everywhere we go is by car, bus, ore taxi. We depend on machines to do everything for us nowadays and it has resulted in our gaining weight and being susceptible to more diseases and health conditions. We cannot be lazy any more if we are to survive to a ripe old age and be healthy!

I do not want to think about it any more. I am taking my dogs for a walk and I think we will walk an extra two times around the park. Click Here!

So, happy walking to you and yours. Perhaps we will meet one day on the walking path!
