Your Body Is A Reflection Of Your Lifestyle

                                                        "Take care of your body.
                                               It's the only place you have to live."

                                                               - Jim Rohn


A little over a month a go I decided to do something that I have been wanted to do for a while.
I went up to Curves in Conroe and had a BioAge test done.

What is a BioAge test?

It is a health assessment tool using a series of metabolic, physical and behavioral evaluations.
We all have a chronological age. We can never get away from that number, even if we sometimes want to lie about our age.
But we can't change the year that we were born, and how old we are today.

But there is also a BioAge. Your actual body age.

In this test they will look at your blood pressure, nutrition, smoking/day, your alcohol intake/week, stress level. Your waist/height ratio.

You also have to do 4 physical tests.

One legged balance

Sit and reach

Core endurance 

Chair squats


Then they will take the results of all the answers and tests and put it together to figure out your BioAge.
Hopefully it will come out lower than your chronological age.

My good friend Melanie Michaelchuk did the test.
Melanie is a fitness specialist at Curves and she put me through this tough testing procedure.
It wasn't that bad at all, and we had a lot of fun.

Since today is my 57th birthday, I thought it was a great time to share my experience and my results with you.
When the test was done my chronological age was 56 and my BioAge was 47....WOW!!!!

Thanks Melanie.....I had so much fun!
