  • Choose How You Age

    Ryan Booher, Community & Physician Relations, Vitality SarcoHealth

    TOPIC CATEGORY: Health & Fitness

    Ryan explains that most adults over age 50 are dealing with the medical condition known as sarcopenia. This progressive loss of muscle mass and strength is the #1 cause of falls and premature loss of independence. Ryan will share stories and explain the science and research around how to reverse this process naturally. When applied most people start to feel changes in their first 3-4 weeks, and typically start to notice significant meaningful changes after 6-8 weeks. MORE >

    The good news is that you can regain your strength and muscle quality by maintaining a balance between Type 1 and Type 2 muscle fibers.

    - Type 1 muscle fibers take minimal effort and calories to maintain and preserve basic ability to move.
    - Type 2 muscle fibers require focused effort to maintain, maximize optimal body function and increase and maintain optimal metabolic function.

    Most people over 50 have too many Type 1 and not enough Type 2.

    Not having the proper muscle fiber balance has the effect of loss of structural support which results in reduced muscle and bone health, diminished balance, poor posture and increased joint and back pain. Not enough Type 2 fibers can also weaken cardiovascular health, leading to increased blood pressure, inflammation, and diminished circulation.

    A final consequence of this condition is poor metabolic function with increased A1C, and increased glucose levels. No wonder so many people are being diagnosed with diabetes and pre-diabetes! This is the consequence of a sedentary lifestyle. Too many Type 1 and not enough Type 2 muscle fibers.

  • What is Happiness / Success?

    Mark Reinoso, Managing Partner / Owner, Desert State Fire, PM Contracting Team, Irvington House

    TOPIC CATEGORY: Motivational

    "I want to be rich" "I want to be famous" "I dont want to work" "I want good food" "I want to travel." "I want kids, or more kids". "I want someone to share my life with"...the list goes on and on. Those are all admirable goals, but that's not what makes us happy. Happiness is more than a great bottle of wine, a fat bank account, or an exotic place. MORE >

    We come from all walks of life, have vastly different figures in our bank accounts, we come from different countries...we couldn't be more different! But yet, almost all of us would consider ourselves happy. Even people in war torn countries consider themselves happy.

    Enjoyment is temporary, and so is discomfort. You can enjoy a great meal, or a ride on a scooter, a trip to a foreign land... Happiness isnt excitement, or enjoyment. Just because you really enjoyed that roller coaster of that glass of whiskey, doesn't mean you are happy. And Just because you aren't enjoying yourself in that particular moment, doesn't mean you are unhappy.Just because you dont enjoy your visit to the proctologist or gynecologist, doesn't mean you aren't happy.

    Happiness is a deep abiding feeling...its visceral.Its a deep abiding feeling that you have. Its knowing that you are living your best life you can with the circumstances you have. It's knowing that you are cultivating the best relationships you can, that you are wanted and needed by the people you love.

  • Rock-On – Really Connect with Early Rock Music

    Ron Meeks, Hall of Fame Musician & Civil War Historian

    TOPIC CATEGORY: Entertainment

    Ron Meeks is a Hall of Fame musician who recorded and performed professionally during the early years (first generation) of Rock and Roll Music from 1957 to 1965. He has a very unique story to share. He played with several successful bands and performed at approximately 420 public events during that period including concerts, rock and roll shows, nightclubs, etc. MORE >

    Ron was also a “studio musician” (“session musician”) and helped create approximately 25 early rock recordings for two record companies. Several of these recorded songs were released to the public and became national or regional hits. The original records are now being sold as collector records. Some of the songs are included in more than 30 different “Oldies” or “Legends” albums and collections that are still being sold by record and music companies in a dozen different countries around the world.

    Ron was NOT a “front man” (star of the group). He was one of those people playing and singing in the background. Ron Meeks played electric bass guitar, sang background harmony and was a music arranger. He performed with more than a dozen different bands including several famous entertainers from that era.

    Ron Meeks discontinued his active rock music career in 1965 and moved from Ohio to Arizona for health reasons. Once settled in Arizona, he started his commerce law and finance practice, which has been his primary profession until his recent semi-retirement.

    In 2017 Ron was added to the Rockabilly Hall of Fame in Nashville, Tennessee as one of the “Legends that helped create Rock and Roll Music”. That Hall of Fame is now a rockabilly museum.
    Throughout Ron’s career, he has been a public speaker relating to this and other subjects of general interest at more than 60 events at many different locations in and near the United States.

    In addition to his regular business activities, Ron found time to perform free as a musician to benefit various charitable organizations, particularly at events for the homeless. Although his early years in music were primarily in rock and roll (also referred to as rockabilly music), he also played traditional jazz, blues, swing, country and gospel music to appeal to more audiences and situations. During recent years, he made recordings and public appearances playing these styles.

    Some of Ron’s most enjoyable music events occurred during the last 20 years after his children, and then his grandchildren, were growing up. All 3 of his children, and several grandchildren are musicians. Ron and his children have produced some good recordings made by his “family bands”.

    Ron Meeks has learned from experience that many people are interested in the music and lifestyle of the 1950’s and early 60’s. Although he no longer performs as a musician, he still loves to share his unique experiences through public speaking so that others can recall and enjoy their musical memories and experiences from the past while expanding their understanding of music during those early years.
