keeping sharp...physically and mentally

[Sophia Sinclair]

It's not an issue as my profession is mentally taxing me all the time.

I need more muscle exercise than brain stimulation or exercise.

All the more reason to finally come see me for some sexercise GPIDEAL! I believe that your busy brain season has finally come to an end for another year.

I'm trying to learn a new language. Now I know not everyone has the time to put in a full effort, but you can always start off small. Teach yourself the (cardinal) numbers first; one, two, three, etc.... Then maybe some greetings/salutations, or nouns, adjectives. This way when you see something, your mind will immediately recall the foreign word for that object for example sein (breast in french). Even knowing some basic words can help impress women, showing that you are more open minded and willingness to learn something new.

Yes, they say learning a new language is one of the best exercises for your brain. I'm trying to learn French but am still at a pretty elementary level. I forgot a lot that I learned in school....

I have noticed than Ive been getting lazy, physically and mentally lately when I have down time ..either at work or home.
I keep myself in reasonably good shape ( have to for work) and ofcourse I need to be fit for the ladies (stamina wise)...and I thank some of these ladies here for keeping me honest in that regard..LOL...but its my brain that needs a kick in the ass sometimes.
I found myself using a calculator at work for simple calculations and other lazy mans tools

Back in the day to keep us sharp my teachers would do rapid spelling and math quizzes to hone the quick trigger parts of the brain...similar to the fast and slow twitch muscles we use every day
It could be the multiplication tables up to 15...or 50 words of 4 to 5 letters fired out in rapid succession..no time to ponder type exercises...either you could or couldnt..
Back in the day I was heavy into chess...I have revisited it as way to pass the time now..but even that is getting tiresome at times
Now im into a more challenging game...yup...TIC TAC TOE...with a twist...its 3D...with 30% of the squares hidden....once ive mastered that im gonna challenge 3D Chess...ala star trek.

How do you keep your mind sharp???

Just wondering...

Buy a ping pong table. Researchers have identified Ping Pong as a way to ward off dementia because of the cross body movements. In Japan which is an "old" society, practically everyone has a ping pong table and they are all the rage in Great Britain and the movement will be coming here soon for the baby boomers. It is also great for hand and eye coordination.
