The U.S. Government has issued new exercise guidelines for its citizens. Here’s a look. Essentially the guidelines seem reasonable albeit more exercise than most of us are doing. I’ve copy and pasted the bullet points for you.
Adults (aged 18–64)
Adults should do 2 hours and 30 minutes a week of moderate-intensity, or 1 hour and 15 minutes (75 [...]

Since the kiddos are back in school, Kiki and I decided to get back into a regular exercise routine. We’re taking core fitness classes at the Y. Each week, we’re trying something new and we’ll post our review. Last week, we did spinning. This week, we tried Zumba.
From the YMCA program description, “Zumba is a [...]

That’s me trying to look like Linda Hamilton in Terminator Two. Now would be everyone’s opportunity to to tell me their exercise disasters, successes or side-parts. I’m open. Hell I’m still on the floor and immobilized after the pull-up fiasco. So discuss what you want - just could I trouble anyone to throw an [...]

Greta and I took yoga on Wednesday morning. I showed up in a giant Roots Canada t-shirt and navy blue sweat pants. Greta had a giant army green t-shirt and army green capri length yoga-esque pants.
I think we did pretty well during our yoga class. At one point Greta appeared to be choking to death during a [...]

Certainly everyone knows that January 2 at any health club or gym is going to be busy. The first of the new year is the perfect time to lie to yourself that you’re going to work out every day and get in shape.
But surprise surprise the other busy day at the health club or gym [...]

For this past Mother’s Day, my loser husband bought me a one hour massage.
There really isn’t much I endulge in as far as commercial pampering. No manicures, no pedicures. I have a Ped Egg and some good polish and I’m good to go. I get a professional cut and color 3 times a year and do [...]

I see Kiki’s Dara Torres workout of yesterday and raise her the reason why none of us will ever have to diet/workout again.
There’s a miracle product out there people. In about 30 minutes, it sucks your fat back, reduces your “drag time” and makes you 2% faster. Ta da!!
Aw yeah. I could probably become a youtube [...]

Yesterday after jamming a fist full of shredded cheese in my mouth (like you’ve never done it) I head out in search of a big bouncy ball. I plan to use said ball as the cornerstone of my new committment to fitness which I’m going to commit to here real soon.
So why the big bouncy ball?
It’s [...]

Remember how betheboy saved me while Greta’s on vacation. She’s got the nerve to still be on vacation. Well it turns out betheboy has a gorgeous wife who writes The Slack Daily and she has given me great motivation to get back to spinning class. Take a read! And thank you Slack Mistress.

For various reasons I’m going to start exercising August 16th. Someday I’ll go into why that date but for now just know on August 16th I will begin working out again after a long exercise draught.
One of the items on my exercise menu is a spinning class. It appears that if you want to burn calories spinning or [...]

This hit the news last week. Scientists have discovered a so-called workout pill.
The pill has only been tested on mice but it burns calories, reduces fat, AND when the mice do workout they’re beasts. I mean like they rule the treadmill because of one little pill. It’s called AICAR. (That’s a working title I think.)
Scientists [...]

Household chores can be a great work out!
Carrying the hamper down the stairs is good for your stems. And a soaked beach towel can weigh a hundred pounds or more!
