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.

Good results this morning. Brian worked with Eric and I individually on the things we suck at which were Ring Dips for Eric and Pull Ups for me. I made my first [...]
I had several nights of good sleep but last night was very restless, up several times. At Crossfit class at 6 AM. It felt good to not have to worry with KB Cleans or the Dips from last month. This was the first morning that I was not concerned with getting a certain [...]
I posted this short video here for two reasons. First, it’s a good Kettlebell instruction video from Kettlebell Advantage and second, Mark Erickson is wearing the same Vibram FiveFingers that I wear.
