My quick journey to Okinawa to observe the Japanese approach to training and gym management. It was an exceptional experience and I have come away with some important lessons and a renewed vigor.

Healthy aging is, rightfully, a common topic of discussion in the fitness world. However, it is often discussed in terms of triaging the declination in physical abilities or, at best, maintaining minimal function. At Lyceum, we hold a different philosophy of how one can maintain and enhance physical performance. Kristie here, just days after her 70th birthday, is shown overhead squatting 73lbs. She clearly shares the philosophy that one should be a participant, not a spectator, in one’s own life. Come to Lyceum if you want to always participate.

Quick Workout No. 1:
If you’re on a real time crunch, give this workout a shot.
For sets and reps the recommendation is 3-5 sets, doing as many *clean* reps as you can. On each subsequent set you will likely not be able to do as many reps on the one before. This is exactly what we expect to happen. If you end up doing fewer than 6 reps and still have sets left to finish be sure to drop the weight a bit.
