Every New Year fireworks explode, the ball drops, and we make resolutions – lots of them. No doubt many of those involve getting “in shape”. We would all love to be fit and active, and more to the point, if we were honest, we all need to be.

Do you realize how many in modern America no longer physically work at anything? Life gets easier every generation. We don’t walk; we drive. We don’t hunt, grow and harvest; we go to the store. We are at work desks all day and on the couch at night. We mow the lawn with a steering wheel in one hand and a diet coke in the other. Just think about how much physical labor it took to wash the laundry 100 years ago.

I’m all in favor of time and energy saving inventions, but what are we doing with all that extra time and energy? More often than not we’re at leisure. Without question we are the most entertained generation in human history. Light hearted fun is a good thing but so much of our entertainment time is spent doing what? You guessed it; sitting. We sit at our computers and while playing video games. We sit with smart phones and watching T.V. Our bodies weren’t designed for so much inactivity and there will be a price to pay both physically and emotionally.
