Men and women differ in opinion on many topics. And one big issue is how they approach exercise. For the most part I think men can discover some powerful body transforming keys by observing women. For instance when you talk to a man about getting into shape, what is the first thing that you hear. I will bet you dollars to doughnuts that pumping iron, especially the bench press and barbell curls will be the topic of conversation. And after that he will probably talk about running for 5 to 6 miles 3 days a week to get rid of his pepper gut. But when you talk to a woman you get a whole different picture. She will tell you about the Pilates class that she just joined, or the high energy mega calorie...

In fact, it has become something of a tradition with Western vacationers to journey to an all-inclusive resort and spend a week of excessive binge eating, drinking, and indulgence in all aspect that would ordinarily not be experienced in daily life. But in the 21st century things are beginning to change. More and more individuals are starting to become conscious...

If you're like me then you find running on a treadmill or riding a stationary bike to be unbearably boring.

Aerobics classes like cardio kick boxing can be more fun but they have a big down side: I have to drive to the gym to do them! That's a lot of extra wasted time that I just can't spare. Aerobic exercise is an important part of anyone's healthy lifestyle whether or not someone is trying to lose weight or not. But it's something that most of us struggle to fit into our lives. Partly due to lack of time to go to the gym and partly just because we think of aerobics as being very boring. We...

BAHA 'I WRITING –“All calamities and afflictions have been created for man so that he may spurn this mortal world — a world to which he is much attached.

I already had a Wii console and once I'd decided to get fit, then getting the Wii Fit Plus and Balance Board add on seemed like a natural progression.
