A simple workout can do wonders for your health |
| 9/23/2009 9:12:02 PM |
My mom has high cholesterol and has had it for well over 20 years. She had been on medication for it for years but earlier this year her doctor wanted to try to take her off of it. So she was told to eat better and workout, walk for 30 minutes a day. Since this is something she's lived with for at least 20 years, she's been pretty good about what she eats. So have I...

Depression VS. Workout |
| 9/22/2009 7:04:35 PM |
When my girlfriend was having a hard time with her daughter battling depression we met regularly to come up with solutions. We met many, many times and discussed various alternatives. One idea was that her daughter see a counselor. The results were a diagnosis of severe depression and a prescription for medication.
I noticed one day while hanging out at her home that her... Read More |

Beauty health this winter season |
| 9/22/2009 2:29:15 PM |
 The flu season is upon us or as the media is reporting, it never seemed to leave. Beauty health is more important than ever. It seems to be common sense to eat right, get a good amount of sleep and get some sort of exercise, but it isn’t always easy. I know, I try to do all these things for my beauty health, but deadlines, obligations and running around on routine errands... Read More

Yoga and Pilates are a Wonderful Workout! |
| 9/22/2009 1:54:51 PM |
There are people among us that are critical of the effectiveness of yoga and pilates. These same folks think these exercises do little physically and mentally. And I am quite certain the same group has not entered a gym or pulled out a yoga mat ever in their lives! Well, I am here to let you know they couldn't be farther from the truth.
I openly invite any of the population... Read More |

Massage Tools to Soothe Muscle Kinks after Workout |
| 9/17/2009 12:10:37 PM |
 Finally I found something for my sister's Christmas present. These are a set of balls that can be used by an individual for self-massaging the back by putting the ball between the back and a wall, and rolling it around. I have one and use it after every workout to get the kinks out. My sister has the same tight back muscles that I do, and I know she will use these back... Read More |

Weight Loss and Exercise |
| 9/17/2009 6:51:53 AM |
There is nothing new about the weight loss and exercise connection. As a Fitness Instructor I know for sure that in order to maintain a specific body weight movement is essential. And if weight loss is your goal that movement must increase or become something different from that which your body is accustomed to.
When I create a workout I look at all elements from the warm... Read More |

Kave Kava For My Beauty Health |
| 9/4/2009 12:05:35 PM |
| Beauty health is something I take seriously. I eat well, take vitamins supplements and do a regular workout with fitness equipment I have in my home. However a recent change in my routine means I have to get up earlier than I used to and I was never a morning person. It may sound odd but when I know I am on a schedule and I have to wake up at a set time it makes it more... Read More |

I'm using a good stretch workout now. |
| 9/3/2009 4:11:03 AM |
 I was not able to workout much because of a herniated disc in my back. I was afraid to do any kind of workout for fear that it would make my back worse or pull something. After going to physical therapy, I now know that was not the best decision. Strengthening muscles around my lower back where the bad disc is makes my back go out less. Knowing the kinds of workout...

Well, there are millions of excuses, and they are all valid; but, there comes a moment in time you must take responsibility for yourself...and my time has come. I will get some type of fitness equipment I can... Read More |

Who needs to go to a gym to workout when you are running up and down stairs all day? |
| 9/1/2009 3:28:16 PM |
This weekend marks the annual convention that my ethnicity holds. It's in a different city each year and every three years, it goes back to one of those cities. For instance, this year it's in Chicago, three years ago it was in Chicago. Just like whichever year it was in Detroit, and three years before that was also in Detroit. And so on, and so forth… I haven't been... Read More |

A College Workout |

 Workout
My older son started his freshman year at the local university and has found a great bonus: he gets to workout at the student wellness center. He can go over there in between classes when he has a long break or after an early class on the days he has short days. His enthusiasm is contagious and I have decided to partner up with my friend and we are going to start... Read More |

At 23 Weight Loss Is Tough |
| 9/1/2009 12:55:22 PM |
 I was blessed with a skinny frame and until about a year ago a metabolism which could take down a plate of hot wings at 1 in the morning without so much as gaining one pound. Well something happened after college and now what I eat actually effects what I look like. My stomach and pecks is where I seem to pick up that slap on the wrist for taking a bag of jalapeno chips,... Read More |

The Journey to Weight Loss and a Better Me |

 Weight Loss
If you’d talked to me a year and a half ago, one thing you would have never heard come out of my mouth is the word workout.But as they say, things change, and the beginning of the year last year, I made a choice to purchase some exercise equipment and begin a health and weight loss regime that would ultimately change my life. Since I was not only very overweight,... Read More |
