* 2 babies born in my 20's

* 2 more babies born in my 30's

*No regular exercise classes - no gym memberships.

* Walked, jogged.

*Started feeling some weight gain in my 40's - so I ran more often.  Nothing changed.

*Hips and knees started complaining in my early 50's.  But kept running anyway.  Just to get the job done! Ignored the complaints from hips and knees.

*Found Essentrics when I was 56. Certified to teach it.   No more knee or hip pain at 57 and beyond!  Hip Hip Hooray for Essentrics!
