FIRST, GET THE OVERVIEW

This page is essentially a reading list, to read in this order.  You may want to scan to see what is on this page, to get your bearings and plan on what to read.

The purpose of my putting together this section, when so much other material is available en masse, is:  To find and use the most efficient way to feeling great and living a quality life longer:

Read this first:  Introduction And Overview - Achieving Physical Balance And High Health

Take just a quick overview on one page:  Managing Your Physical Health And Energy - At A Glance Overview Of Key Points - Use this not only to get the overall perspective quickly but also to see the elements that you can work with to achieve much better health.


THEN DO THE QUICKEST, BIGGEST EFFECTORS

You may wish to slam all the key items into place in less than a day under the Energy Increasers section of The Quickest Life Improvers. This is an option for you to consider, where you can get most of the benefits in place very quickly and then go back and do te full planning and implementation of refinements and other improvements you may choose.

SYSTEMATICALLY, FROM HERE, THIS IS WHAT YOU WOULD DO

What To Read And Do And In What Order - Follow which includes this: 

  First, measure:    Test Now! What is your real health age?

  Then plan:  Use the forms provided, see below, to help plan and implement
       effectively

         You should end up with a list of your top physical goals for the year, three, five
              and 10 years (see below for forms, etc.).
 
        To help you plan, look at and use these:

                   Items To Implement, In Order Of Effectiveness - A separate
                      page placing the changes to make in order of their impact on your
                      health. Which things you've heard of or had suggested to you make
                      the biggest difference and which are most feasible to implement? 
              
                    The Physcial Goals Worksheet Packet - Extensive, for all
                        areas and overall.  Very worthwhile!

                     Managing Your Physical Resources - What practices are you doing
                        and which should you commit to from diet, exercise, to deep
                         relaxation and ergonomics and more. 

  Then manage and monitor

        Monitoring - An essential process of accountability and clarity to help
             achieve goals effectively.

Other materials and resources are included, for your use when needed, but do glance at them below.

MONITOR FOR MAXIMUM RESULTS AND EASE: (Monitoring is essential to achieving a goal!)

   Exercise/Eating Monitoring and Graph - A simple chart on one page that includes
      tracking what key exercises you've done and how you've eaten, daily.  Doesn't
      track weight (see below for that).
   Physical Habits Rating Tracking Sheet - Tracks, giving you a total score key
      habits, subtracting points for some.
   Physical Health Measures - Long Term Monitoring Record - Without this
      perspective, it is harder to tell where you've been and how you're really doing.

      by day plus exercise.


TEST NOW!

Do this RIGHT NOW!  This is something you can't put off any more.  IT'S YOUR VERY LIFE!

  Life Expectancy - Testing for what is your real age and knowing how you can
     affect it, while avoiding being the victim of myth or ignorance!
         www.realage.com - For great information and testing online.  Find out your
            "real" physical age.


OVERALL

www.mayoclinic.com - One of the best sources I've seen.  Without all the ads or any biases.
www.realage.com - For great information and testing online.  Find out your "real" physical age.

  Life Expectancy - Testing for what is your real age (see above) and knowing how you
    can affect it, not buying into myths.


Supporting Structures/Systems - Essential for the greatest progress!

    Set up a notebook (or a thin Binder) for putting items you need to have accessible to
         refer to immediately, including, if not appropriate in another place, weight, eating,
         monitoring, exercise and stretching routines and pictures of what to do, and other
         items, such as back care.  Include printouts from this site and use labelled dividers.
    Use experts and programs! -  Obviously, use fitness trainers, nutritionists, weight loss
          programs, and other relevant professionals to help in the process.

Time3+ hours/week for good health care - At least (find the time!), with at least 1/2 hour spent on educating yourself (see the resources list) until you become "knowledgeable" and healthy.  Plan on doing this for six months.  It's worth the investment.  (Study the pieces, all short, below to get a quick overview and to be efficient with your time.)
