Don’t forget, sleep is when you heal and grow!! Pay attention to your body and how you sleep, this can sometimes be the missing link in your injury prevention, growth and progression. There is no magic number, but most studies show that between 6-8 hours seems to be optimal for the average, non-diseased individual.
Stay strong Calgary!!

Obesity
What is your take on Obesity being officially labelled a “Disease”?
The American Medical Association recently voted to declare it so. A disease is defined as having a medical condition that requires treatment. Currently 1 in 3 (says this report) Americans are overweight or obese!
And….Canadians are not far behind at 1 in 5!!
Thoughts?
