[News Boquete] Strength Training for Mental and Physical Health

Exercise and Nutrition are important during our entire lifespan  but especially so as we age, becoming seniors. A year ago I joined the gym and have been going 3-4x weekly. Weight training has not only built muscle, making my arms, back and legs stronger but has also made me a helluva lot happier, more content and appreciative of the stage of life I'm in. I am 73.

Recently watching a number of videos on YouTube I scientifically understand why. I, along with others, know  Strength training is a necessity for well-being. I recommend you go to YouTube and type in Strength Training for Seniors, and watch and listen to a lot of what comes up.

I've been an exercise enthusiast all my life. Even as an obese child, I was active. I also taught Yoga, Pilates and Therapeutic Movement and was a Personal Trainer. When I go to the gym I do an eclectic work-out of elastic band stretching, yoga movements, hand weights and weight machines. Regarding the machines I keep it simple. I work with  setting the weights as to what I can do at various ranges of motion. As I get stronger I begin adding more weight. and widening the range of motion. My body tells me how much I can do. Plus I make sure to set the machines correctly. so to have good form. Weight training need not be complicated.

However, if you've never done this before and would like help getting started, or would like help going to a new gym, we can meet at the San Francisco Plaza gym for an hour-long session. for $20.

An exercise professional, for many years, I will work with you and your particular situation. Do send me an email as I do not use a phone, but actively use my computer.

Always Towards Greater health and Well-being, Suzanna [Susan] Clare

Some 60 delegations, including schools, colleges and independent bands, marched this Thursday, November 28 in the district of Boquete, to commemorate Panama's 203 years of independence from Spain.

A bright morning in the Boquete district welcomed the commemorative events of the 203 years of Panama's independence from Spain.

[News Boquete] Amigos de Animales - November Newsletter

Our mission is to provide low cost spaying and neutering of dogs and cats, and to promote the general welfare of animals in our community and surrounding areas.   Si prefiere recibir los correos electrónicos en español, haga clic aquí. AMIGOS DE ANIMALES BOQUETE PANAMÁ   NOVEMBER 2024 NEWSLETTER A New Year is Coming - We Need Your Help to Keep Going!   Dear Animal Lovers and Supporters,   As we close another impactful year, we reflect on our strides in animal welfare and education. This year, we honor Katrina Kneebone, a dedicated volunteer whose efforts have transformed our educational outreach program.   Katrina expanded our education initiatives, setting up reading corners, providing animal sterilization clinic presentations, distributing and teaching animal care workbooks in schools. She also organized successful sterilization clinics directly in schools, serving families who couldn't reach our main clinic.   Due to health concerns, Katrina had stepped back, and sadly passed away on October 30.  We are committed to continuing her legacy. We aim to raise $35,000:   $14400 to continue rural school sterilization clinics- the demand is steadily increasing $6000 to finish reading corners in 13 classrooms. $8000 to upgrade 43 classrooms to 50 bilingual/spanish books per classroom $1100 for bookcases  $1000 for Animal care and sterilization presentations $750 for rugs in reading corners $3800 for school Christmas parties Join us in honoring Katrina by contributing to this campaign. Your generosity will help us continue making a difference in our community.   Thank you for your support.   Leslie Sherling, President, Amigos de Animales Boquete   ♥♥ Together, We Can Do More ♥♥   This year, let's honor Katrina's spirit by ensuring that schools experience the same dedication to animal welfare and continued education that Katrina was passionate about. Your generosity echoes through generations, leaving a legacy of kindness and responsible pet ownership. Thank you for being part of our mission. We couldn't do it without you! I WANT TO HELP   Click one of the buttons or scan the QR Code DONATE VIA PAYPAL The first image here shows the summary from our October clinic.  Take a careful look at the second image, which shows why we ask for your donations! OUR VOLUNTEERS ARE THE FOUNDATION OF OUR SUCCESS   At every clinic we hold, whether at our facility in Alto Boquete or at locations around Chiriqui, our volunteers give of their time, energy and love of animals to make each and every clinic a success.  Because we are a not-for-profit oganization, we cannot pay our volunteers, so once a year we gather together at a special luncheon to celebrate these dedicated individuals.   No special skills are required to become a volunteer - just a desire to contribute!  If you enjopy working with animals, we have many positions that need to be filled every month and will provide training.  If you'd rather not be hands-on but would still like to join us, we have ongoing needs for individuals to help out with marketing, website design and maintenance, communications, kitchen support, and many other tasks.
