The next day you have a 2-day business trip out of town and can’t workout. So you’ve missed three days, which isn’t bad, but tomorrow starts your week of vacation. So you haven’t gotten to work out for 10 days.

Pam told us that as she edges towards retirement she wants to make sure that she is physically fit to continue to lead an active, athletic lifestyle. "I was very athletic when I was younger and assumed I was still in good shape because I wasn't overweight.
