Hello readers.

I’ve been training and writing about lifestyle, nutrition, fitness and health and safety issues for over twenty-five years. With a background in occupational and environmental health, I am also a qualified personal trainer with experience in diet, nutrition, aerobic and resistance exercise and weight management in personal health and fitness.

I write a regular column for About.com Weight Training and specialise in coaching people in lifestyles that optimise healthy living choices through nutrition, weight management and physical activity — at a level that’s achievable and scientifically proven.

I publish the Longevity Rules! lifestyle and wellness program. I have qualifications in workplace training, so the package is written within professional criteria for presentation and evaluation. The program is in the process of being evaluated for accreditation and continuing education points (CECs).

I worked for many years in occupational and environmental heath and safety, so I feel qualified to comment and advise on food and environmental safety issues with some experience and perspective as well.

I’ve been a track sprinter, a marathoner and triathlete, played baseball, hockey, cricket, tennis and golf — some more seriously than others. Recently I returned to serious masters sprinting – and a bronze medal at the Pan Pacific Games. I train with weights and on the road and track.

Feel free to ask a question at any time or comment on an article.

Hi Paul,

I love the website. I wondered what your best tip for a long healthy life would be?

Paul Rogers July 15, 2010 at 11:21 am

Just one thing?

Lean, fit, strong.

That sounds like three things, but it’s really a single paradigm. You have to eat well to some extent, but if you stay lean, fit and strong, by whatever means, then that’s my best single tip.

Thanks Paul,

I also think there is a direct correlation between how you feel and being lean and strong. I think challenging the muscles regularly will keep you feeling young no matter how old you are.

Hey, I just read some of your health and fitness articles. Great stuff! Thanks for sharing…I also think that doing regular push ups on a daily basis, maybe 5 times a week, is an excellent way to stay fit. What do you think about doing push ups?

Most of us need to do something to maintain healthy. The important thing we must do now is to seek for an expert who can help us deal with this.

It is with this kind of blog post that individuals who lost their self-confidence get to walk with a chin-up.
Thanks to your post! Surely this could make a difference.
