You have stumbled onto the Web site of Exercise Professional Lynn and writer/photographer Bob Difley, fulltime RVers, lovers of nature and the outdoors, hikers, runners, kayakers, swimmers, mountain bikers, bird and wildlife watchers, parents of five children, and grandparents to seven.
If you are an RVer who feels that your life today should be one of sitting, watching TV,
and other sedentary activities, maybe you’ve come to the wrong site. If, however, you
feel that if at this moment you are entering one of the best times of your life, your kids
are grown, you are starting to phase out your working life and you look forward to some of
the best times of your life: RVing, traveling, and enjoying all that Mother Nature has to
offer—then you have come to the right place!
Welcome. You have found the site for people who want to stay healthy and fit so that they
can pursue those fun parts of life, especially since we have all waited so long. And we
certainly don’t want to be hampered or slowed down aby a tired or unhealthy body.
We hope you will find within these pages answers to your questions or information that
will help you to live healthy, eat healthy, play healthy, and stay healthy. When you click
on the Fitness section (see list to your left) you will find a list of valuable hints,
helps, and information designed to keep you out there and active. In the Eating Right/Fuel
For the Body section you will find recipes, low fat cooking hints, how to choose the right
foods, and how to read and understand package labels.
Exercises for strengthening your muscles, which help prevent injuries as well as enable
you to pursue active activities, are in the Strength Training section. If you’ve ever
strained or hurt you back, pulled a muscle, tore a tendon, broken a bone, or suffered an
injury—either major or minor—head to the Setbacks & Breakdowns section for
help in protecting the injured area and what measures to take for its rehabilitation.
Scientists have long known that the mind and body are inseparable, that they often
influence or affect each other in ways we still do not quite understand. Go to the
Mind-Body Connection to see the latest studies and findings from reputable sources like
the New England Journal of Medicine and the Berkeley Wellness Institute.
H2O Workouts will suggest some ways to exercise in swimming pools, letting the water
support you, reducing stress to your joints. Water exercises are excellent for
rehabilitating tired or injured body parts, and for the overweight.
Check our Outdoors and RV Stuff sections for places we've traveled to and
explored. Short stops are quicky stops, or side trips of interest. As we go along we will
add more, and probably change some. Come back again. And send us your comments or
suggestions. Thanks.
