Vital Signs and Remedies for a Full Spectrum World

Gumby

Well, like a flying gumby. But just like a lot of ballet dancers have joint problems later on, I wonder about the consequences of pounding your body against concrete, like he’s doing.

But its nice to see someone fit and healthy, with a strong and flexible body. That seems to be the problem with a lot of older people–their bodies are so stiff with no flexibility, and it isn’t necessarily due to arthritis. Like my mother is in very good health, but she moves like the stereotype old person. Even if you’re not a gymnast or dancer, doing exercises like yoga or pilates do keep your body elastic and flexible, and ward off that “stiff old man” syndrome.
