Conquering Chronic Pain: Effective Strategies For Managing Sports Injuries
By Coach Eric Broser
If you are truly serious about making progress, then you more than likely head to the gym every day with the intention of pushing your workout to the max. However, when you put your mind, muscles, joints, and nervous system through such stress on a daily basis, the occasional injury is bound to occur. And while it is not a huge issue to manifest some aches and pains now and again, it should be the exception and not the rule.
In other words, if you find yourself in constant agony, often needing to take pain meds, avoid various exercises, or take days off – well then, you definitely have a (serious) problem. What follows is not an article on how to treat your injuries but a discussion about why they may be occurring too often. My hope is that with some preventative medicine, you may soon be lifting, pumping, and playing pain-free.
Before pounding on your muscles and joints, increasing systemic core temperature and getting your blood flowing into the muscle groups you are about to target is a good idea. A short walk on a treadmill or a quick 5-minute ride on a stationary bike is a perfect way to kick things off. Follow this with simple calisthenics like neck rotations, shoulder rolls, torso twists, and side bends. Finish with a high rep set of bench presses, pull downs, lateral raises, and squats to finish priming your body for the workout ahead.
Nothing causes more sudden injuries than lifting with improper form. Jerking and swinging the weights will rob you of muscle stimulation, creating significant and unnecessary wear and tear on your joints. Bouncing out of the bottom of a squat, row, or press can put you at serious risk of a strain or tear. Poor attention to your alignment on major lifts can rapidly send you to the chiropractor. By paying close attention to your technique and lifting and lowering the weights under control and with care, you will avoid injury and gain far more muscle and strength.
Even if you are not guilty of mistake #2 above, you can still invite injury to a muscle or joint by constantly performing low rep (4-6 per set) training. Heavy weights are very taxing to tendons, ligaments, and the central nervous system. Thus, even if your muscles can take the heavy weight, you will still eventually cause a chink in your armor. I suggest that you cycle your poundage so that at least every 3rd week, you perform your sets in the range of 12-20 repetitions. This will ensure that your attachments and nervous system get a break and stimulate different muscle fibers.
Lesser known by the average lifter, one of the causes of muscle and joint injuries is utilizing the same exercise or exercises, for each body part at every workout. These are referred to as overuse injuries. Overusing the same exercise can cause excessive wear and tear by repeatedly overloading the same movement patterns. This type of injury is often seen in those who focus too heavily on popular exercises such as the bench press, squat, deadlift, military press, and upright row. You will go a long way toward pain-free training by rotating somewhat different movements in and out of your program weekly.
Just as a hard-working car needs regular oil changes, tire rotations, and engine tuneups, so does the intensely training gym-goer. Just because you are not world-class or pro-level doesn’t mean you do not need some consistent muscular and structural maintenance — especially if you are serious about maximizing progress toward your personal goals. Those who do not take some time for regular therapeutic modalities such as chiropractic, massage, physical therapy, and others are literally inviting pains, pulls, strains, and even tears to occur.
Trust me – I know. It is far better, cheaper, and less painful to prevent rather than treat injuries. Not to mention how much more valuable it is to spend time in the gym pursuing your goals rather than nursing your aches and pains in bed.

Reading is an activity that has long been associated with numerous cognitive benefits. Among these benefits, memory improvement stands out as one of the most significant. This article delves into the intricate relationship between reading and memory enhancement, exploring how reading influences different types of memory, the mechanisms behind these effects, and the broader implications for cognitive health.
Memory is a complex cognitive function that can be broadly categorized into three types: sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term memory. Sensory memory holds information for a brief period, typically less than a second. Short-term memory, also known as working memory, is responsible for holding and manipulating information over short periods, usually around 20 to 30 seconds. Long-term memory, on the other hand, stores information for extended periods, ranging from hours to a lifetime.
Reading involves multiple cognitive processes, including decoding text, comprehending language, and visual processing. These activities stimulate various brain regions, particularly the hippocampus, which is crucial for memory formation and retrieval. According to a study published in Neuron, engaging in activities like reading enhances synaptic plasticity, which is the brain’s ability to strengthen or weaken synapses based on experience.¹ This increased plasticity fosters the formation of new neural connections, thereby improving memory.²
Regular reading helps expand an individual’s vocabulary and general knowledge. This accumulation of information enriches semantic memory, a subtype of long-term memory that involves storing facts and concepts. The Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior notes that a robust vocabulary enhances verbal memory by providing more mental “hooks” for retrieving information.³ Consequently, individuals with a rich vocabulary are better equipped to remember and recall information.⁴
Reading requires sustained attention and concentration, particularly when engaging with complex texts. This practice enhances working memory by training the brain to hold and manipulate information over extended periods. A study in Psychological Science found that individuals who read regularly exhibited better working memory capacity and cognitive control compared to non-readers.⁵ Improved working memory directly translates to better short-term retention of information and more efficient transfer to long-term memory.⁶
When reading narrative texts, individuals often create mental images of the scenes, characters, and events described. This visualization process engages the brain’s right hemisphere, which is associated with creativity and imagination. According to research, this imaginative engagement enhances episodic memory, a type of long-term memory that involves recollecting personal experiences. By vividly imagining the content of the text, readers are more likely to remember the details of the story.⁷
Reading stimulates cognitive functions by engaging multiple brain regions simultaneously. This stimulation enhances neural connectivity and promotes the production of neurotrophins, proteins that support the survival and function of neurons. The increased production of neurotrophins, particularly brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), has been linked to improved memory and learning abilities.⁸
Engaging in mentally stimulating activities, such as reading, has been shown to reduce the risk of cognitive decline in older adults. A longitudinal study published in Neurology
revealed that individuals who engaged in regular reading and other cognitive activities exhibited slower rates of memory decline compared to those who did not.⁹ This protective effect is thought to result from the brain’s enhanced ability to compensate for age-related changes and damage.¹⁰
Stress is known to impair cognitive functions, including memory. Reading has been shown to reduce stress levels, which benefits memory performance significantly. A study by the University of Sussex found that reading for just six minutes can reduce stress levels by up to 68%.¹¹ This stress reduction is crucial for maintaining optimal cognitive function and memory retention.¹²
The cognitive benefits of reading extend beyond memory enhancement. Regular reading has been linked to improved critical thinking skills, better problem-solving abilities, and greater empathy. These cognitive benefits contribute to overall brain health and can enhance quality of life at all stages.
A strong memory is essential for academic and professional success. Students who read regularly tend to perform better academically, as they can better retain and recall information. Similarly, professionals who engage in regular reading are more likely to stay informed and make better decisions based on a broader knowledge base.
Reading, particularly fiction, can enhance emotional intelligence by allowing individuals to understand and empathize with different perspectives. This emotional engagement can improve social relationships and contribute to emotional well-being. Furthermore, reading can provide a sense of escapism and relaxation, which is beneficial for mental health.
The relationship between reading and improved memory is multifaceted and supported by a wealth of scientific evidence. Reading contributes significantly to memory enhancement through mechanisms such as enhanced neural connectivity, expanded vocabulary, improved focus, and stress reduction. Beyond memory, the cognitive, emotional, and social benefits of reading underscore its importance as a lifelong activity for maintaining overall brain health and well-being.

SO, YOU WANT TO BE A SUPER-AGER?
By dr. Ken davIs
For those of us on the wrong side of age 50, antiaging modes and methods, health and fitness strategies, diets, and supplements become increasingly vital as we hurtle ever deeper into our golden years. We seek to delay our ultimate demise. Hi-tech billionaires are spending massive amounts of money researching life extension and how best to improve the quality of an extended life.
Currently, the finest anti-aging system on the face of the planet is an all-natural methodology that, when adhered to for a protracted period, creates a “super-ager,” someone that looks, acts, and feels decades younger than their chronological reality. Used worldwide and consistently, hardcore bodybuilding is turbocharged bodybuilding. Hardcore denotes taking all things bodybuilding-related to the next level of adherence, intensity, and sustained effort. Hardcore bodybuilding does not just slow the aging process when executed with the requisite consistency and ferocity and done as intended. It pulls the hands of time backward
At age 66, I discovered hardcore bodybuilding. Six years of non-stop dedicated practice has made me objectively younger by any physiological measure or benchmark you care to name, be it physique or performance. I am a far better man at 72 than at age 66. While we cannot escape our chronological reality, we can improve our body’s condition. By becoming fitter, leaner, stronger, and more muscular, quality of life improves proportionally. As Dean Wormer once noted, “Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life.” I paraphrase and say, “Lean, fit, and muscled-up is the way to go through life’s later stages.”
age 66. And I was not an out-of-shape, unfit 66-year-old. I was a weekly practitioner of cardiovascular exercise, fit, healthy, and not obese. I was the possessor of excellent blood profiles. I was in fine health and good condition “for a man my age.” Nowadays, I am in excellent shape for any man of any age.
Hardcore bodybuilding differs from bodybuilding as taught at the local YMCA. Being hardcore requires radically ratcheting up the degree of training intensity, improving nutritional discipline, and redoubling the overall commitment. In every exercise and drill, I pushed myself to (and often past) the limits of my current capacities. Willpower and discipline lock in a super-strict nutritional game plan to never miss a meal, cheat on a diet, or blow off a training session. There are no cheat days or off days in the hardcore world.
It’s not only what you do; It’s how hard and tenacIously you do It.
When I commenced my bodybuilding journey, I knew nothing about bodybuilding. I had never weight trained in my life. Initially, I decided to commit to a 90-day “periodized cycle” under the supervision of an expert bodybuilding coach. I would commit to a three-month process. If the results appeared as promised, I might continue. If results were subpar, I would end my fledgling bodybuilding escapade and perhaps take up pickleball or golf. My 90-day results exceeded my wildest expectations. I was intrigued, fascinated, and beguiled. I was hooked.
The deeper I got into the hardcore bodybuilding “process,” the more my performance in every benchmark, drill, or exercise improved. My blood profiles markedly improved, and my energy, strength, endurance, vitality, and body composition are all lightyears superior to those benchmarks at
I am now six years into this journey. My progress has been steady and continuous. Two years ago, I won my IFBB pro card. I won my division at the IFBB Professional World Championships earlier this year. Guided by my incredible coaches, I have cracked the bodybuilding code: building muscle and burning off body fat. The good news is the realization that an effective and proven pathway for transformation exists. The bad news? The degree of time, pure effort, precision, and unrelenting repetition make this path too
challenging to transverse for most of those who try.
The reality is harsh: the body must be stressed to a herculean degree to build muscle and shed body fat.
What does that mean? I have learned how to exert 100% of my momentary capacity without hurting myself. This is where the hypertrophy gains and fat-burning reside. A submaximal effort is insufficient. I go all out in my near-daily weight training and cardiovascular sessions. I lift weights for an hour six days a week. Every single day, I wake up and perform 30 minutes of sweaty “fasted” cardio.
Glycogen is low when coming off fasting and sleeping. My morning aerobic session burns residual glycogen and commences mobilizing and oxidizing stored body fat. My predetermined aerobic pace is 80% of my age-related heart rate maximum. This is for the entirety of a
30-minute session. At age 66, I could not attain and maintain the pace I now routinely use. My cardio conditioning at age 72 is vastly superior to when I began my bodybuilding journey.
Hardcore trainees coordinate sweaty, fasted cardio with strict eating to roast off body fat. During a competitive phase, I will eat six meals per day, forty-two meals per week. I consume nothing but “clean calories,” lean protein, fibrous carbohydrates, and MCT fats. Starch carbs are modulated. All refined carbs, sweets, sugar foods, alcohol, baked goods, empty calories, and fast food are long gone. Every 2-3 waking hours, I eat a small, balanced mini meal.
One unexpected side benefit for those who embrace the bodybuilding nutritional approach is chemical detoxification. Hardcore bodybuilders consume a limited menu of natural foods. By eliminating chemically laden foods, detoxification occurs, resulting in newfound energy,
vitality, mental clarity, and dramatically reduced inflammation. Nutritional supplements “fill in the gaps.” Supplements are meant to supplement, not supplant, the expert use of regular food. Intense, consistent exercise combined with unrelenting, disciplined bodybuilding-style nutrition is the key to body composition management. There are no half-measures or compromises in hardcore nutrition.
Results? By the end of the second week of full hardcore adherence, the detoxing causes energy to skyrocket. The trainee experiences improved sleep and a newfound mental clarity. By the end of the first month, measurable gains in performance and physique become apparent. By the end of the second month, friends and family express wonderment. A dramatic physical transformation occurs after three months of uninterrupted and tenacious adherence. It happened to me at age 66. There is wisdom in those old clichés, “age is only a number”
and “it is never too late to start.”
Only a formidable effort will grow muscle or melt off body fat. Learn how to push to the limits of your current capacities consistently. Seek to extend resistance training boundaries and limits safely and repeatedly. Ditto aerobic training: break a sweat and try fasted cardio. Make room for continuous, rugged training underpinned with the expert use of regular food, augmented with select supplementation. Settle in and make hardcore a lifestyle. With 90 days of strict adherence, you trigger your very own dramatic physical transformation. Simultaneously, become a super-ager and pull those hands of time backward

Dr. Bruce Smoler, a second-generation dentist, has always been surrounded by dentistry. Growing up in a family with deep roots in the dental profession, he was naturally inclined toward this field. His father, a local dentist, subtly encouraged him to be his own boss, which resonated with Dr. Smoler’s entrepreneurial spirit. On the other hand, his mother wanted him to pursue a medical career, pushing him towards becoming a physician.
“As a second-generation dentist, I was surrounded by dentistry my whole life. My father was a dentist, and he just wanted me to try to be my own boss,” Dr. Smoler recalled.
Dr. Smoler’s journey began at the University of Michigan, where he completed his undergraduate studies in three years. He then attended Northwestern Dental School in Chicago, a decision influenced by his interest in periodontal procedures and dental gum lasers.
“In high school, I was looking at either medicine to be an eye surgeon, cardiologist, or periodontist. As it turns out, the easiest pathway was dentistry because I knew a lot about it,” he explained.
Dr. Smoler’s career has been characterized by continuous learning and innovation. He has amassed over 6,000 hours of continuing education, far exceeding the typical requirements for dental professionals. This dedication to education has positioned him among the top one percent of dentists in America.
“It’s not something I needed or had to do, but I wanted to do it. My thirst for knowledge propelled me to learn more about every aspect of dentistry,” Dr. Smoler stated.
His journey into advanced dental procedures began with orthodontics, where he learned how to help patients with misaligned teeth. Over time, he expanded his expertise to include TMJ therapy and dental implantology. These advancements have allowed him to offer comprehensive dental care, including complex full-mouth reconstructions.
One of Dr. Smoler’s most notable contributions to dentistry is his early adoption of cutting-edge technology. His practice was the first in Michigan to use a dental implant robot, Yomi, which assists in implant placement. This technology has revolutionized how implants are done, making procedures more predictable and efficient.
“My wife said, ‘Bruce, who in their right mind would buy a dental implant robot during a global pandemic?’ I raised my hand and said, ‘I would,’” Dr. Smoler recounted with a laugh. “If you believe in the technology, it becomes a no-brainer because you can see how it helps patients.”
Additionally, his practice has embraced a digital workflow, drastically reducing the time required for procedures. Thanks to advancements in scanning and imaging technology, what used to take several months and multiple visits can now be accomplished in a single day.
“The ability to have a digital workflow means we can do what used to take months in one visit. This increases efficiency and lowers patient costs,” Dr. Smoler explained.
Dr. Smoler’s practice, Smoler Smiles, is renowned for offering a wide range of dental services, including sedation dentistry. This service enhances patient comfort, allowing them to undergo extensive procedures without anxiety or discomfort.
“We’ve been offering sleep sedation services for years. Patients enjoy being asleep and comfortable, and we can get years of work done in just one sitting,” Dr. Smoler said.
The practice also specializes in complex full-mouth reconstructions, particularly involving dental implants and cosmetic procedures. Patients can preview their new smiles using advanced facial scanning software before any work is done.
“We can design their smile with their aesthetics and cosmetics
in mind right from the beginning. This way, we don’t have to guess where the teeth need to be,” Dr. Smoler explained.
Beyond his professional achievements, Dr. Smoler is deeply committed to giving back to the community. He has initiated several programs aimed at helping those in need, including the Smoler Express program, which aims to make dentures obsolete.
“Our mission is to make dentures obsolete. There are 24 million people in this country with dentures, and we have programs specifically to help them,” Dr. Smoler stated.
Another notable initiative is The Give Back a Smoler Smile (GBAS) program, which provides donated dental services to individuals in need. This program is a testament to Dr. Smoler’s dedication to improving lives through better dental health.
“We’re targeting to give back upwards of $500,000 over the next twelve months. It’s all about reaching out to people and doing what we can to change their lives,” he said.
Dr. Smoler’s dedication to continuous education has profoundly impacted his practice and patients. His extensive training allows him to offer advanced treatments that many other dentists may not be equipped to provide.
“One of the things that’s very interesting about dentistry is out of 200,000 dentists in this country, very few get involved in dental implants. Only about thirty percent do, and very few actually do full-mouth reconstructions with implants,” Dr. Smoler explained.
His commitment to learning has also taken him around the world, where he participated in programs like ORCA in Guatemala, where he and other dentists provided dental care to underserved populations.
“It’s very good and rewarding to be able to do things that other offices can’t and help patients who need it the most,” he said.
The impact of Dr. Smoler’s work is evident in the lives of his patients. Many come to his practice after years of suffering from dental problems; their transformations are life-changing.
“Imagine that person who for years had no self-esteem. We just get the old self out of the way, and they become the person they’re meant to be,” Dr. Smoler reflected.
His approach to patient care is holistic, considering not just the physical but also the emotional and psychological aspects of dental health. He and his team strive to create a welcoming environment where patients feel understood and cared for.
“Our job is to help people, not hurt them. We focus on creating an environment where patients feel comfortable and supported,” he said.
Dr. Bruce Smoler’s vision for the future of dentistry is both ambitious and deeply rooted in advancing patient care through technology and continuous learning. He envisions a world where dental procedures are more efficient and accessible, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to experience the highest quality of dental care.
Dr. Smoler firmly believes in the transformative power of technology in dentistry. His investment in the Yomi robot is a testament to his commitment to staying at the forefront of dental innovation. “Technology is not just a tool; it is the future of how we deliver care,” he explained. “Integrating robotics and digital workflows has revolutionized our practice, making procedures more precise, less invasive, and ultimately more comfortable for our patients.”
In the coming years, Dr. Smoler plans to integrate further advanced technologies such as AI-driven diagnostic tools, 3D printing for custom dental solutions and enhanced digital
imaging techniques. These technologies will improve the accuracy and efficiency of dental procedures and allow for more personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s unique needs. “The future of dentistry lies in precision and personalization,” Dr. Smoler asserted. “By leveraging the latest technologies, we can offer treatments specifically designed for each individual, leading to better outcomes and greater patient satisfaction.”
Another key aspect of Dr. Smoler’s plans involves expanding Smoler Smiles to reach more communities. “We want to extend our services beyond our current locations and make high-quality dental care accessible to a broader population,” he said. This expansion will involve opening new offices in underserved areas, providing mobile dental units for remote locations, and partnering with community organizations to offer free or low-cost dental services to those in need.
In addition to physical expansion, Dr. Smoler is also exploring the potential of tele-dentistry to reach patients who may have difficulty accessing traditional dental services. “Tele-dentistry can bridge the gap for patients in rural or underserved areas,” he noted. “By offering virtual consultations and follow-ups, we can ensure that more people receive the care they need, regardless of location.”
Dr. Smoler’s commitment to education extends beyond his practice. He envisions a future where continuous education and training are integral to the dental profession.
“Education is the cornerstone of our ability to innovate and improve,” he emphasized. “I plan to establish training programs and workshops to share our knowledge and expertise with other dental professionals.”
These programs will focus on the latest advancements in dental technology, best practices in patient care, and innovative treatment techniques. By fostering a culture of learning and collaboration within the dental community, Dr. Smoler aims to elevate the standard of care across the industry.
“When we share our knowledge and learn from each other, we all become better equipped to serve our patients,” he says. “My goal is to create a network of dental professionals committed to excellence and continuous improvement.”
In the future, Dr. Smoler will also focus on enhancing the overall patient experience at Smoler Smiles. This includes creating a more comfortable and welcoming environment, streamlining administrative processes, and incorporating patient feedback into practice improvements.
“Patient experience is at the heart of everything we do,” he states. “We are constantly looking for ways to make our patients feel more at ease and ensure their visits are as stressfree and pleasant as possible.”
Innovations such as virtual reality for anxiety reduction, advanced pain management techniques, and personalized patient care plans are all part of Dr. Smoler’s vision for a more patient-centric approach.
“Our patients are our top priority,” he affirmed. “By continually seeking new ways to enhance their experience,
we can build lasting relationships based on trust and mutual respect.”
Dr. Smoler’s commitment to giving back to the community is unwavering. The Give Back a Smoler Smile (GBAS) program, which provides free dental services to those in need, is a cornerstone of his philanthropic efforts.
“Our mission is to positively impact our community,” he explained. Through GBAS and other initiatives, we aim to improve the oral health and overall well-being of individuals who may not otherwise have access to dental care.”
In the future, Dr. Smoler plans to expand these philanthropic efforts, partnering with local schools, community centers, and non-profit organizations to offer educational programs and dental services.
“Oral health education is crucial,” he said. “By teaching children and adults about the importance of dental hygiene and providing the resources they need, we can help prevent dental issues before they start.”
Dr. Bruce Smoler’s vision for the future of dentistry is holistic, encompassing technological innovation, expanded access to care, continuous education, enhanced patient experiences, and a deep commitment to community service. His dedication to improving the field of dentistry and making a positive impact on his patients’ lives is evident in every aspect of his work.
“The future is bright,” Dr. Smoler emphasized. “With the right tools, knowledge, and a compassionate approach, we can transform how dental care is delivered and help more people achieve the smiles they deserve.”
Dr. Smoler’s vision for the future is clear: to continue pushing the boundaries of dental care through innovation and education. He remains committed to his patients and community, constantly seeking new ways to improve and expand his services.
“Life is a journey, not a destination. It’s about continuously learning and finding ways to help more patients live better,” he concluded.
Dr. Bruce Smoler’s dedication to dentistry, his patients, and his community is a testament to his commitment to excellence. Through his innovative approach and unwavering passion, he continues to transform lives, one smile at a time.

eri Abbado’s journey into the world of fitness and bodybuilding is nothing short of extraordinary. Originally from Croatia, Meri came to the United States 32 years ago with her then-husband and a newborn baby. She was a homemaker and stay-at-home mom, raising her two sons for most of her life. However, at the age of 43, Meri faced a lifealtering moment—a hysterectomy—that propelled her into a journey of self-discovery and transformation. Today, she is an IFBB Pro Champion and a licensed personal trainer, inspiring women over 40 to take charge of their health and fitness.
*Meri’s first place win in the 45+ and 35+ category of the
Meri dedicated her early years in the U.S. to her family. She spoke with pride about her role as a mother, saying, “Raising my sons was and still is the most important role of my life, and I’m very proud of the men they’ve become.” Her life started to change, however, when she underwent a hysterectomy at 43 as a newly divorced single mom to her two teenage sons. The surgery and new life circumstances affected her both physically and emotionally, leaving her in a place where she felt the need to reclaim her strength and well-being.
“For the first time in my life, I felt the need to start exercising,” Meri recalled.
She began with simple home exercises, using a treadmill and a few weights. What started as a way to recover from surgery soon became a passion as she began to experience the benefits of regular exercise.
“My home gym grew little by little,” she said, adding that she eventually created a Facebook page to document her workouts. To her surprise, the page took off, and today, she has nearly 100,000 followers, most of whom are women aged 40 to 65.
Encouraged by the positive feedback from her growing online community, Meri decided to take her fitness journey to the next level. She realized that she needed more knowledge and training to offer proper advice to her followers. “At first, I didn’t feel comfortable giving advice to other women because I was not a professional,” Meri confided. This led her to become a licensed personal trainer, and it was during this time that her manager suggested she try competing in bodybuilding.
At the time, Meri knew nothing about bodybuilding. But her curiosity was piqued, and she began researching the sport online. Eventually, she enrolled in a local bodybuilding contest, marking the beginning of a new chapter in her life.
“The rest is history,” she said with a smile. What started as a personal quest for health turned into a professional pursuit of excellence.
Transitioning from home workouts to professional bodybuilding wasn’t an easy process, but it happened organically for Meri. “It took a couple of years to move from home workouts to joining a gym, and then after a year, hiring a coach,” she reflected.
Her training routine evolved from basic cardio and strength exercises to a rigorous regimen including weightlifting, cardio, stretching, posing, and even yoga. Today, her training can take four to six hours a day, spread across multiple sessions.
One of Meri’s most significant challenges was balancing her demanding training schedule with her responsibilities as a personal trainer and mother. However, she feels fortunate to have a flexible schedule. “I have a home studio where I train my clients, so it’s very convenient and saves me a lot of time,” she said. Most of her clients are lifestyle clients aged 40 to 75, and she also offers posing classes for competitors.
Meri is quick to acknowledge that not all women have the luxury of such flexibility, but she believes in the importance of making time for fitness. “Things just work out for me in a way that I can get the most out of my day for my training,” she explained.
Meri’s journey has become a source of inspiration for many women, especially those over 40 who may feel intimidated or unsure of where to begin their fitness journey. Her advice is simple yet powerful: “Find something you really enjoy doing. That’s the best guarantee that you will stick to the program and achieve results.”
She emphasized the importance of consistency, treating exercise time like any other important meeting. “Fitness needs to become an essential part of your lifestyle,” she stressed. For those who feel intimidated by the gym, she reassures them that “everyone there is so focused on themselves that no one cares what the other person does or how they look.”
Meri’s success is not just about physical strength; it’s about mental resilience and determination.
“If you really want something in your life, you will always find the way and motivation to do it,” she asserted. For Meri, motivation is fleeting; what truly matters is discipline, structure, and consistency.
“If you fail at some point, it’s not a big deal. You check it off and continue where you stopped,” Meri advised. She also addresses the common misconception that motivation alone is enough to achieve one’s goals. “Motivation comes and goes,” she said. “What you actually need is determination, grit, discipline, hard work, and persistence.”
As a strong advocate for women’s health, Meri encourages women to start their fitness journey as early as possible, especially as they approach midlife. “After 45, women experience so many changes in their bodies, starting with hormonal changes, which is huge,” she explained. Exercise has been a crucial tool in managing these changes for Meri, and she believes it can have the same impact on others.
“I’m nothing special,” she insisted. “I know that if it works for me, it will work for other women.” Her message is clear: it’s never too late to start, but the sooner you do, the better.
Meri Abbado’s transformation from a stay-at-home mom to an IFBB Pro Champion is not just a personal victory; it’s a powerful narrative that resonates with countless women who find themselves at a crossroads in life. Her journey underscores the idea that life’s most profound changes often begin with a single, seemingly small decision. For Meri, it was the choice to start exercising after her hysterectomy, a decision driven by the need to reclaim her health and well-being. This initial step set off a chain reaction, leading her to discover a passion for fitness that she never knew existed.
What makes Meri’s story truly inspiring is her unwavering commitment to self-improvement, even in the face of challenges and doubts. She didn’t start with lofty goals of
becoming a bodybuilder or a fitness icon; she started with the simple aim of feeling better about herself. This humility and grounded approach make her achievements all the more relatable and attainable for others. Her success is a testament to the idea that anyone, regardless of age or background, can make significant changes in their lives if they are willing to do the work and remain consistent.
Moreover, Meri’s story serves as a beacon of hope for women, particularly those over 40, who might feel it’s too late to embark on a fitness journey. She has proven that age is not a barrier but a mere number that does not define one’s potential or capability. By starting her fitness journey at 43 and becoming a world champion by 53, Meri challenges the societal norms that often suggest physical decline as an inevitable part of aging. Instead, she demonstrates that with determination, discipline, and a positive mindset, it’s possible to maintain and significantly improve one’s physical and mental health well into the later stages of life.
Meri’s emphasis on consistency, discipline, and self-belief is a crucial takeaway for anyone looking to make a change in their lives. She believes the key to success is not fleeting motivation but daily commitment to one’s goals. Her advice to women— to find an activity they enjoy and treat their fitness routine with the same importance as any other obligation—speaks to the importance of integrating health and wellness into one’s lifestyle rather than viewing it as a chore or a temporary project.
Meri’s story strongly reminds us of the transformative power of fitness. It’s not just about building muscle or losing weight; it’s about reclaiming control over one’s body and mind, fostering resilience, and cultivating a sense of accomplishment that permeates all areas of life. Her journey illustrates that fitness can drive profound personal growth, offering physical benefits, mental clarity, emotional stability, and a deep sense of empowerment.
As Meri continues to inspire others through her work as a personal trainer and her online presence, she is helping redefine what it means to age, especially for women. She encourages women to view their health and fitness as nonnegotiable aspects of their lives, take action before it’s too late, and recognize the incredible potential within them, regardless of their age. Her story is a call to action for women
everywhere to start today, to make time for themselves, and to believe in their ability to transform their lives, one step at a time.
Meri Abbado’s journey is not just about personal triumph; it’s a blueprint for anyone looking to make a meaningful change in their life. Her message is clear: it’s never too late to start, and the rewards of taking that first step are limitless. By sharing her story, Meri has become a symbol of strength, resilience, and the limitless potential of the human spirit—a true inspiration for anyone striving to overcome challenges and
achieve their personal best.
Meri Abbado’s journey from a homemaker to an IFBB Pro Champion is a testament to the power of determination, discipline, and passion. Her story serves as a reminder that it’s never too late to start taking care of our bodies and that the rewards of fitness go far beyond physical appearance.
As Meri emphasized, “If you take care of your body, the body will reward you.” And in her case, the rewards have been nothing short of remarkable.
