What is a baby boomer?

People born between (and including) 1946 and 1964. After American soldiers returned home from World War II in1946, the United States experienced an explosion of births (hence the name baby boom) that continued for the next 18 years, when the birth rate began to drop. In 1964, baby boomers represented 40% of the population, which means that more than one third of the population was under 19 years of age. In the 1990s, approximately 76 million people in the United States were born in the baby boom years, representing approximately 29% of the country's population. Since baby boomers make up such a sizable portion of the consuming public, their spending habits and lifestyles have a powerful influence on the economy.

Monday

Another week starts. A good night of sleeping and at the gym at 6A.
Did my core workout and my circuit. I worked my shoulder flyes into the circuit and then did my elbow work, 20 minute cardio and my stretching.
I did not have a set rest time, I just took what I needed. [...]

Workouts for next week

Here is what Dave is saying about what we are going to do to change things now that I am feeling better and back on track again with my workouts.
“For the workouts this week, I want you to go back to the weights I have listed, but take whatever rest you feel you need. [...]

Friday

8 hours of non-stop sleep last night. Truly a miracle.
At the gym at 6A. Jumped in with my core workout and started the Turkish Get Up’s and Snatches. Dave and I had already decided to back down to 8 snatches with the 24KG. I worked my shoulder flyes (15lbs) [...]

Thursday

Another good sleeping night. Did not have to get up during the night which is always a nice thing. At the gym at 6A.
I pushed the weight down again for this circuit, using a 24KG for the Lunges and Rows. Did my core workout and did my shoulder flyes (15 lbs) between [...]

Wednesday

Last night was a restless night. My back was acting up. I was at the gym at 6A.
Workouts are getting better. Each day is getting better rather than going downhill has it had been. I took down the weight to 28KG for Swings and 24KG for figure 8’s. Still needed some [...]

Tuesday

Another good night of sleep. Only got up once. Slept in until 4:30A and was at the gym at 6:00A.
I did not eat anything this morning to see if I started to feel sick during my workout.
I backed down to 40 pounds on the press push, 28 KG on the Squats and 160 [...]

Monday

Debbie is gone, taking care of Aunt Mary who has returned to her home after her fall and physical rehab. Expect her back on Tuesday, April 1st.
Got a good nights sleep last night and hit the gym at 6A. Still experiencing nausea during heavy effort. I don’t throw up, just fell like [...]

Friday

Did not go to the gym this morning. I may try going over the weekend for a light workout to see how that goes. My hope is that I can get back on schedule come Monday morning. I am just not suited to being ill.
I have to be realistic. I [...]

Thursday

No workout today. I have accepted that I am just sick. I almost wish I would just get really sick, be forced into the bed for a couple of days and get it over with. I am tired of this just feeling lousy everyday.
My eating has been good but I am really [...]

Wednesday

I guess I am just going to have to admit that I am sick. This mornings workout went really bad. I went down to 28KG for swings and 20KG for Figure 8’s. I figured even a little girl could do that weight so I should not have any problem. I was [...]
