If I told you that you could lose fat without trying, is that something you would be interested in?

I thought so...

 

Editor´s Note from Rachel Webster: Today we are innundated with information about how to lose body fat and how to transform and I feel like people focus on finding the very best system to add to their lives and many tend to jump from program to program only focusing on losing fat. In order to make permanent changes in our bodies, something in our soul needs to change. This article gives two perfect examples of how simple life changes having nothing to do with a fat loss program create changes in our bodies. Not to mention, the massive benefits you experience when you have a dog in your life!

Editor´s Note from Rachel Webster: I know this video has been shared around the internet for awhile now, but, it is one of the most inspirational videos I have ever seen. I have seen it so many times and it never ceases to inspire me to do better. It inspires me to do better in my working with others and it inspires me to push myself a little bit harder when I may not feel like it. Not matter what anyone else thinks, YOU can do anything you choose to do. Arthur is amazing as is Diamond Dallas Page who made the decision to help him. Check out www.inspiredthemovie.com

Do you ever agree to do things only because you are assuming that they will never happen?
These promises can vary in severity from agreeing to raise your nephews if anything happens to your sister and brother-in-law, to telling your friend that you will drive her to the airport at 4:30 a.m. if she can't find a ride, to saying you will stay on the PTA board one more year if a replacement for you isn't found. Pre-nuptial agreements also come to mind...

 

Editor’s Note from Bess Coble: Penny makes the statement that, for her, it’s not so much that she loves to exercise, she loves how it makes her feel after she’s done it. With so much daily stress and so many competing for our attention, exercising because of the way it makes us feel afterwards can be more of a motivation than wanting to lose weight or get toned. She says “exercise is the warm-up” for every other part of our life...

When we hear the word “muscle,” we generally think about the biceps, triceps, glutes and shoulders. But there’s an overlooked area of the body that deserves some much-needed attention: Your feet. Think about it: Your feet are the foundation of your body and your life. Whether you’re an elite athlete or an occasional walker, your feet are responsible for carrying you everywhere you go in life...

Editor’s Note from Bess Coble: If you're obsessed by your scale, give it away! Muscle weighs more than fat. The purpose of posting this photo is to show that it's not the numbers on the scale that's important, but the ratio of muscle to fat. The goal is not to look like the woman who is a size 2. The goal is to drop the excess fat for your height and build. Scales are not a bad thing. They can be a big help in the process of getting healthy, but if you're basing your results solely on what those numbers are, you can see how misleading that can be.

You probably have a friend who spends hours on elliptical machines reading People Weekly and talking with her on-again/off-again boyfriend. She also swears by her gym’s Tuesday night aerobics class as an excuse to hit the new fro-yo place around the corner, since (according to her) she burns 500 calories in this class...

 

Editor’s Note from Bess Coble: Different than circuit-training or plyometrics, burst-training uses short 30-60 second high-intensity exercise with a slightly lengthier recovery period, usually one-to-two minutes. It’s not easy at first, and not recommended for beginners, but the results are fast and studies are showing that the health benefits are more substantial than just doing regular cardio workouts.

Editor’s Note from Bess Coble: Love this hilarious video! Anyone who has spent time in a gym has a story to tell of the stereotypical ways men and women exercise – but what if the roles were reversed?

Guest Editor of Exercise & Fitness

It has always struck me as odd that more people are not up earlier in the mornings, just as the sun is beginning to rise. This time of the day is like a treasure waiting to be opened and explored: it’s when the white mist is gently rising off the dewy grass and pond water of my local park as I run or bike through it...

Editor’s Note from Bess Coble: Are you a Type A personality? Perhaps you’re a Social Butterfly…or a Nature Nut…maybe you’re Spontaneous or the Indoor Type or just plain Lazy. Whatever your personality, here’s a humorous and insightful video on matching workouts to suit that inner drive…or lack thereof.

You don’t need anything to walk, and yet it gives you everything—health, clarity, fun, creativity, productivity, a connection with your environment.
 
I walk with no destination in mind. I set out, usually with my laptop and a book and a pocket notebook in my backpack, and I walk...

Editor’s Note from Bess Coble: NASA says rebounding is the most effective exercise created by man: it is low impact, improves balance and coordination, and the gravity-force of each jump on the rebounder automatically trains the pelvic diaphragm, which helps control incontinence & enhance lifestyle. It is also considered the best exercise for the immune system. Check out a sample rebounding class here.

Six Reasons You May Dread Working Out, and What To Do About It

by Kathy Smith

Perhaps you’ve heard someone say something like, "I love exercise! It’s my passion, the highlight of my day, and I look forward to it!" Perhaps you’ve found that person to be incredibly annoying. Perhaps you’ve even found yourself thinking, "Am I missing something here? Because I do NOT love exercise..."
