Knowing your numbers may save your life.
Here are a couple of descriptions of people – maybe you know them or possibly you’re closely aligned with one or the other.
Each one of them may be a man or a women, I’ve given them names randomly.
Pete
Pete is middle aged. He is married to Marge and they have two young children aged 6 and 8. Pete drives to work five days a week. It takes him about 35 minutes each way on the good days. He is the manager of a well known home improvement store. The five days he drives to work vary as he is often at the store on the weekend.
For the last few years Pete is always tired. He gets 7 to 8 hours sleep on most nights, however, when home he often catches a nap for about an hour during the day. Pete enjoys fast food, Mountain Dew and when watching sports enjoys his beers ice cold. Sometimes Marge has to wake him up well after the game has ended and help him from the Lazy Boy recliner to bed. He can’t remember the last time he saw a doctor or had a full physical exam.
Susan
The best way to describe Susan is as a fireball of energy. She has been called the energizer bunny, after those commercials, at virtually everyplace she has worked. When her divorce was finalized last year she was determined to focus on her career advancement and her total fitness. As a successful sales person in a medical equipment business she is determined to outwork and outsell everyone she works with and her outside competition.
Susan is up everyday at 5 AM and goes for a run outside. She’s determined to be fit in her mid thirties and can still wear her college cheer outfit. Most evenings she goes to a local boutique workout club, no Planet Fitness for Susan. This place has some serious plate pushers and she lifts with the best of them.
A couple of months ago Susan almost passed out when doing an over head thrust. Then last week it happened again when she was bench pressing. When you speak with her you’re shocked to learn that even with her close contacts in the medical field she hasn’t had a physical since senior year in college.
What’s going on here with these two people?
Do you think they know their numbers?
Numbers like – blood pressure, results from a blood test, a chest x-ray and more. I’m not a physician and this isn’t official medical advice however, why aren’t each of them getting checked out ASAP?
Now do you see yourself as being closely aligned with one of these individuals? Is there someone you know who may be similar to one of them?
Here is why –
Learn your numbers and know your numbers.
