I have been doing some kind of regular exercise since i was 15

.. and now i believe it's been life changing from a health perspective.
I have got through health issues that my doctors have told me would ultimately disable me

But i believe we need a balance of all healthy things in our life.

To quote American Surfer - Laird Hamilton...

[i]To truly have optimal performance, you need to have every spoke in the wheel..
.. that you have to have a good relationship with your family
.. you gotta have love and you gotta have good things with your kids..

and.. you gotta have friends and you gotta have your health
.. and you gotta sleep well and be hydrated and you gotta work out and you gotta have a business thing

I just think you have to have all these things to have balance

If one of the spokes isn't tight, then you get a bump in the wheel

- Laird Hamilton - Surfer 56 years old[/i]

This is what i strive for every day although i'm missing some spokes. Some say we don't need love or we don't need a family or we can get by without exercise etc, but we need all spokes in the wheel. It's hard though... but it's worth it.

Awesome!
I haven’t noticed any spikes missing. But of course we are briefly online.
I am hoping you find and are able to replace the spokes you speak of. No pun intended ! As for myself, I am definitely missing a couple of spokes and I want them back!
