Happy New Years and best wishes to you and your family in 2009!

At Widely-Actively, we will continue to provide you with the latest information about Health, Fitness, Lifestyle and Food, from a variety of sources. All of this focused toward the wide-body community, providing our brothers and sisters with the information they want and need to stay, or become, healthy and active.

Yes, encouraging and maintaining an active exercise routine amongst those with a wide-body mesomorph body type is a passion, and some would say, a crusade, of mine. Those of us built with wide muscular frames where given a special gift, and we should honor that gift as it honors our families and our heritage. I’ve also seen anecdotally that a healthy and active wide-body is a happy wide-body. A happy wide-body is will be a better parent, sibling, child, employer, employee, co-worker, spouse, lover, friend, mentor, teacher, and student.

If you are a former athlete of any sort and level, have a muscular mesomorph build or used to, male or female, and you haven’t taken that step to get yourself on the road to healthier body, won’t you please make a pledge to yourself join me in this journey? Pledge to yourself that you can and will become healthier and more active. You remember what it was like to be physically competitive because some of the happiest times in your life were when you physically competed for a goal, a championship, or maybe a medal. You “went for it” with gusto and loved power and strength it gave you, so why not stoke those competitive fires that still burn deep within you?

I have posts that will be hitting the blog within the next few days that can provide extra guidance to those of you looking for ideas on “what should I do now?” and “what exercise is best suited to my personality”

I do want to hear from you. Drop me an e-mail, let me know how you are doing with your exercise plans and goals. If you have other ideas of items that would be helpful to other wide-bodies, PLEASE let me know. If you have updates from events in your community, I’d love to hear about them. You can always drop me a note at Wide-Body@Wide-Body.com.

Take care, God bless, and lets go out together and have a wonderful and healthy 2009!
