Small Changes to Get Healthier

To be successful at any big undertaking — starting a new career, salvaging a shaky marriage, mastering a foreign language — you have to "give it 110 percent," as the saying goes. But when it comes to what may be the most important change of all — revitalizing your health — you may be better off giving only 10 percent and not worrying too much about the other proverbial 100. "You're more likely to succeed by making small changes," says Catherine Champagne, Ph.D., professor of research at the Pennington Bi... (more)

Work Out Using Only A Wall:

The morning weather was iffy today so we took our stroller exercise class indoors. Being stuck inside the mall means having to utilize a small space, limited equipment (resistance bands only), and little time (45-50 minutes before shoppers come). As an instructor that means I have to get creative to provide a challenging indoor workout for everyone. And sometimes that's where the wall comes into play. (more)

For many, celebrating a birthday is synonymous with cake and ice cream. Don't tell that to Naomi Watts — the actress celebrated her 41st birthday on Monday by biking around New York City with her beau, Liev Schreiber. I think it's OK to celebrate a little when the occasion arises, but I have also been known to start my birthday off with a bike ride with my man. What about you? Do you let you indulge on your big day, or do you incorporate fun fitness activities like Naomi? Source: Flynet Love ThisEma... (more)

The Psychology of Fitness

It’s become more apparent to me lately just how many people have difficulty either getting started with a fitness program or simply adhering to one. I’m coming to believe that there is a certain mind set, or psychology let’s call it, behind the problem. For most athletes, fitness and sports have simply been part of their lives for as long as they remember. And because of this, workouts are something they just do, and don’t analyze. (more)

Cyclists More Likely To Have Bone Loss

Riding a bike is good for your body but might not do much for your bones. Wednesday, January 14, 2009.
