On Your Feet
So, hey all! Just wanted to let you know that we have an upcoming program on Friday, September 19th at 3 pm from HCA Houston Healthcare. It's an educational program identifying risk factors and life style choices and behavior to prevent falls.
Apparently, falls are the number one cause of injury landing people in the ER!
As always, it's free! No registration necessary.

I don't even have time to pick my nose during summer reading lol.
Now that's over I might have a bit more time! Well, maybe not. I'm now in charge of the Makerspace we're putting in, so, I'll be messing with that whole scale now.
Thanks for thinking of me!

Vinbert : Cool. Makerspace. That's neat. I heard there's a library across the river that was just built or remodeled that has a bunch of stuff like that. I've heard it is super cool, but I've never been. I'm too lazy to drive across the bridge to find out for myself. lol.

RajunCajun: well, I've taught myself the Cricut, the sublimation printer and the heat press. I'm now working on the 3d printer, I've replaced a lot of parts in it and got it running fairly reliably. Next is renovating the setting machines we picked up second hand. Then I'll get to tackle the CNC mill. Boss also wants to add some digital conversion equipment as well, but that won't be a lot to learn . Most of those seem to be plug and play

You can't prevent fall. It comes every year. In fact, in some places like New England, the leaves change spectacular colors. I didn't realize that the leaves coming down from the trees during fall injured so many people.

OK, serious Olaf this time.
I attended a seminar at the Kingwood community center about nine months ago on fall prevention and things that can help prevent falls. They included simple things like grip socks, things in the shower that made the floor more slip resistant. They even did a little session on exercises that can help with balance and leg strength.
I am seem to be 66 years old. Last February, I looked at myself and I said you really look like Olaf. As much as I like Olaf and feel, I am like him personality wise. I did not want to look like him.
I have been going to planet fitness for six months and have lost 22 pounds of fat butt in the process gained 11 pounds of muscle.
I do squats with a 15 pound kettle ball on a Bose ball. I also then do one leg balances on the Bose ballin an airplane, then a side V, then a karate kid stance.

PSA people
Get out there and just start moving and heck like I said planet fitness is only $25 a month for the black card and you can invite a guest take instructor lead classes and use their recovery therapy rooms
This is not a commercial for planet fitness but just to say that if you need to be motivated or someone to help you through the process, this is very inexpensive and can get you on the path to achieving your fitness goals
Today I leg pressed 440 pounds for 12 reps
