Shimmy and Shake to a Younger You

If you haven’t heard about this year’s Super Bowl performance by now, you must have been living off the grid or stuck on a submarine somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic. While eager sports fans love a good football game, the thrill of the Super Bowl starts with the half-time show, is supported by the commercials, and ends with the awarding of the Vince Lombardi trophy. Though Super Bowl LIV had an incredible showdown between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers, the real show came at half-time with Shakira and Jennifer Lopez.

Going for the Win

The audience around the world was mesmerized by the glitter, glam, and gyrating of the highly anticipated halftime show. In hip-thrusting, butt-shaking, and total body twerking routines, both Shakira and J. Lo threw it back to their Latin infused roots. They led a nation-wide dance party,  embracing their womanhood and sex appeal to get the crowd going.  For two women in their 40s and 50s, respectively, these performances were nothing short of jaw-dropping and sensational. Male or female, young or old, you can’t help but appreciate the difficulty of pulling off some of those stunts at that age. While the world sat on their couches with beer and nachos in hand, these two women were throwing down the gauntlet against aging.

Worrying About the Future

If you look at what these pop icons did and then take a hard look at your own activity levels, there is probably a small twinge of jealousy over how well these women are concealing how old they are. Okay, maybe a whole more than a twinge. Not only can they move and groove, but their skin is flawless, their hair has an amazing body, and they are toned and fit. Sure, they have makeup artists, and chefs, and trainers, and nearly unlimited resources, but these women put in the work. If you want your future years to be just as sensational and mesmerizing, you need to get busy with your anti-aging protocol.

The Key Areas to Address

1. Hormones. Drawing a comparison between your looks and those of the pop starts around you isn’t really a fair assessment. However, it should motivate you to look for an area of improvement within your health routine. Given the demonstration of youthfulness you witnessed at the Super Bowl, you can start your game plan with an HGH therapy plan. As it relates to aging, this strategy works to address the symptoms of aging where they begin. Throughout infantile, youth, and teenage years, the body produces high levels of the human growth hormone. The agents within this hormone help with muscle development, bone mass, fat burning, energy levels, and cellular growth and regeneration. These foundational activities help the body grow and develop until the mid-twenties when production levels begin to decline. Symptoms of aging appear as the body fails to receive optimum levels of the hormone. An HGH therapy program introduces more of the hormone into the body, working to restore to the needed levels to combat the decline. In addition to addressing the hormone element of aging, you also need to consider the impact of diet.
2. Diet. Though it sounds cliché, it is true that you will become what you eat. You may not physically turn into a snack cake, but your body will be fueled by and filled with unhealthy refined sugars, processed foods, and saturated fats. Your body will need to be in optimum health to have the best chance against illness and age-related diseases. It will need the support of lean proteins, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and a wide variety of vitamins and minerals taken from several sources. Carefully choosing what you eat will keep you from putting excess weight and provide the energy you need to increase your activity levels or go about your daily life.
3. Exercise. Being able to shake and swing your hips like Shakira or move to the beat like Jennifer Lopez is no ordinary feat. It takes consistent stretching, workouts, and rehearsal. However, you don’t need to learn a killer dance move in order to keep your body looking young. Engaging in rigorous exercise five times a week for at least thirty minutes will strengthen your bones, keep your muscles from atrophying, improve your cardiovascular health, reduce stress, and burn calories. Gaining weight is one of the quickest ways to visibly looking older, but the excess effort it takes to keep the internal organs of the body working will impact longevity and efficiency. Stress also hastens the look of aging, as does poor muscle tone and weak bones.
