Team Spotlight

Steffanie, Certified Massage Therapist

For the last 9 months, my team and I had the pleasure of giving massages to the amazing residents of Anthem Senior Living every single week.

The first day I met Sam, I knew his heart was in the right place and he always put the seniors first. What continues to impress me is that, as time has passed the amenities and services keep getting better and better. The atmosphere is so uplifting and healthy the second you walk in. You're greeted by energetic and friendly staff every time and as a bonus ... soothing music playing throughout.

I believe every aging senior deserves the absolute best. You owe it to your loved one to take a look at ASL.

We don't tell you we're the best. .. we show you! ANT H E M For More Information

Challenge Yourself Fitness is not easy. It takes hard work to make achievements. You must constantly challenge your body in order to see change. Show up early to warm up, work as hard as you can, go a bit heavier or harder each time, and get a proper stretch afterward.

Get Proper Nutrition I have written over and over about the benefit of eating the right foods. You must get plenty of natural, healthy foods in order to make positive changes to your body: Plenty of protein for muscle; healthy, natural carbs for fuel; fats for your brain and body; and ample water so you stay well hydrated.

Get Plenty of Rest This is absolutely necessary when trying to lose weight or gain muscle. If you’re sleep deprived, your body will not respond the same as if you are well rested, and you could see

yourself moving in the wrong direction quickly. The good news: Regular exercise actually enhances your ability to sleep well.

See a Fitness Pro I know you have heard this from me before, but there are many people just like me who have dedicated their lives to helping our communities become fit and healthy. We go to seminars and fitness conferences to find ways to better help our members achieve their goals. The trainers at SkinSport coach me every day— it forces me to show up and helps me stay on form and push harder. I’m proud that everyone who works at SkinSport as a trainer also works out here regularly.

If you need more help breaking that plateau, feel free contact me or stop by the gym. We would be happy to help you out.

nQ Hey Scott, I am working out several days a week,

but my progress has stalled. How can I get my body to continue progressing toward my goals?

nA Great question. Many people hit plateaus, whether when they are trying to lose weight or while working on strength gains. Follow these steps to get back your gains:

Take a Hike!By Robert Roy Britt & Caitlin Struchen

[email protected]

There are more trails in and around North Phoenix than you can shake

a hiking stick at. The Phoenix Sonoran Desert Preserve, which winds through and next to communities from Norterra to Sonoran Foothills to Tramonto and Desert Hills, “is awesome,” said Shawna Crawford, who moved to Anthem from Pennsylvania with her family last summer. “There are more trails within an hour radius of our front door than we could ever ask for.”

Robert Van Allen likes the preserve’s relatively new trailhead at Carefree Highway and 7th Avenue, with access to what he calls a “challenging” short trail of about 2 miles “or longer if you want more.”

This time of year, rangers in Maricopa County parks, including three near North Phoenix, organize hikes weekly. Rangers emphasize the obvious: wear close-toed shoes, hats and sunscreen, and bring ample water.

Home Sales SoftenIn&Out Staff [email protected]

The number of existing homes sold in NoPho fell to 101 in January,

17 percent lower than December and 22 percent lower than January 2017. The change can be attributed at least partly to relatively few homes on the market: Inventory remained below a six-month supply in all five zones and is particularly low in Anthem Parkside (just 1.4 months). Less than six months is considered a “seller’s market.”

Meanwhile, the average price fell in all five zones, even as price per square foot was higher in four and unchanged in one. This indicates, at least in part, that the homes

closed in January were generally smaller.

Given the relatively small numbers overall, it will take additional months of data to see if the softer sales represent a trend, after 2017 total volume ended up 10 percent higher than 2016.

Homes Sold represents the number of homes that have closed escrow in the given time period.

Average Sales Price can be skewed by the sale of a single home that is priced well above or below other homes that have sold.

Price per Square Foot of any individual house can vary greatly depending on many factors, including location, upgrades and condition of the property.

The Ups & Downs of HikingBy Chris [email protected]

I like to hike. Back in the day, my hikes were, well, hikes. Two or three days, sometimes more,

combined with rugged camping and, dare I say, survival. The survival tended to be more accidental than not.

Before GPS and fancy locator beacons and the like, stupid decisions put me into dangerous situations. Most of these were due to having that feeling of invincibility that comes with youth.

Memorial Day weekend 1981 comes to mind.

Just my buddy Jim Colmey and me. Jim would be the first to tell you he’s no mountain man. He grew up working at his mom’s cheese shop in Connecticut. He made a mean fondue. But a campfire? Not so much. We headed from San Diego to some reservoir outside Yuma with nothing more than a cooler of beer, some very perishable food, and a few blankets and pillows. Everything but the cooler was stuffed in my Navy seabag.

At the reservoir, we parked, stashed the beer in the trunk (well, most of it), and took off for a hike. Nary a flare, map, or magnifying glass between us.

Several hours later we were in the middle of absolutely nowhere, knee deep in a swampy pond of some sort. Mosquitoes were draining our blood at about a pint a minute, and due to me using my seabag as a battering ram to knock down the increasingly thick bamboo-like reeds, our exit was blocked by punji sticks. We were out of water and ideas. Jim decided we’d die right there, and I was pretty much good with that.

In a last ditch attempt at escaping our watery grave, I climbed a way-too-skinny tree to see if I could scout an exit. About 15 feet up, the tree slowly began to snap. As it fell, it miraculously formed a makeshift bridge to dry land. True story.

These days, my hikes tend to resemble long walks on brightly lit paths. io
