Just came across
this great post!
….Not everyone has the time to make it to the gym during their lunch break. But just because you can’t get out of the office (or your cubicle) doesn’t mean that you can’t get some exercise, or “deskercize” during the day. Here are some suggestions for web […]

Morning,
Well! As I had earlier reported, this morning I did the P90x Legs and Back DVD, along with Ab Ripper X. Great stuff, that….and by 9am, I was at the gym with my husband, ready to do my 55 minutes of treadmill cardio.
That went rather peachy, I must admit. Then I […]

Morning,
Ever have an insane urge to do Pilates? Ever wonder what the heck Pilates is?
I’ve tried it myself and let me tell you, it translates into a killer of a workout! From Wiki, it’s described like so:
Pilates was formed by Joseph Pilates during the First World War with the proposal […]

Morning,
Well! My local Sports Authority had a 25% discount off of any single item in the store…and I was lucky enough to visit there when they unloaded 15 instances of the Perfect Pushup. At only $32 (including tax!), how could I resist?
After I got this beastie home, I opened up the box. […]

Morning,
One of the most popular shows on TV these days is the reality show The Biggest Loser - the TV show in which lots of overweight people compete to lose the most weight possible.
It’s quickly developed its own cult following and is extremely popular online. I really have to give credit to the […]

Morning,
Today’s workout in the gym was most unique. I had planned on doing my usual 53 minutes on the treadmill (today was supposed to be cardio day!) but fate instructed otherwise. It seems that the massive physical exertions I’ve been doing in self-defense, karate, teaching my kids, etc.etc.etc…..have finally caught up to […]

Alas, but it’s true. There is no such thing as ’spot-reducing’. Heck, if there was, all of my weight would have first disappeared off my tummy, leaving me a robustly Rubenesque wench of wonder!
I actually have a fondness for double-chins, much like people have a fondness for an accident that force them […]

Morning,
Are you like me? Tied to a computer for hours and hours a day?
If so, you know how difficult it is to actually force yourself to stop and stretch for even 5 minutes, let alone get some real exercise in. Right?
I’m happy to announce I’ve found a free alarm clock you can […]

Need to pump iron, but you’re deskbound at the office?
One effective way to arm curl is to use your briefcase or your backpack as the weight you lift! I remember doing this myself when I was taking my kids to the Anime Conference - it was time for my usual bodyweight workouts […]

Good morning,
Did you hear about the Chinese gamer who died after a three-day session on the computer? Apparently “Police have ruled out the possibility of suicide,” the newspaper said, adding that “exhaustion” was the most likely cause of death.
Wow. Talk about obssessions!
While most of us probably use our computers with more […]
