Moving Monday: The Year On The Trail
Three spectacular places to walk your Way to health and happiness in the New Year. Press Play. Then make a resolution. Or three. Happy New Year. Happy trails.
The Gift of Awe
In the presence of honest-to-goodness, awesome nature. Vast, beautiful expanses of it. Places that make you feel deeply grateful to be alive on this planet. Places you can only get to on foot. So here are some gifts to encourage and enable someone you love to get there.
The Gift of Massage
When yesterday's hike turns into today's muscle knots, give yourself a massage with this 3-in-1 Massage Roller. Looks kinky, but it's a great Way to work out the kinks. Always available. Never needs an appointment. Tipping's optional.
The Gift of Fresh
Fresh you. Refreshed you. Fresh legs. Fresh, hydrated everything when you're on a long walk or hike. The gift that makes it so easy and convenient to take a sip of water before you need it.
The Veg-O-Matic of All Stretch Exercises
It doesn't slice or dice. But it stretches, it strengthens, it balances and gets you off your butt. It's the Quadriceps Stretch. Multi-tasking on one foot. Cost-Benefit Analysis: a lot of benefits for a minute of your time.
Feet, Shoes, and Hiking: A Short History
I should be sore. But I'm not. After two weeks of steep mountain hiking. Tens of miles on the trail. Miles of elevation gain at high altitudes. I'm pretty sure it's my new trail shoes. I thought I should tell you because you're more likely to hit the trail when you're confident about having an easy, comfortable hike.
Better Cheaper Massage. Slow as you like
Tough hike yesterday. Muscle knots today. Give yourself a massage with this 3-in-1 Massage Roller. Looks kinky, but it's just a good Way to work out the kinks. Don't need an appointment. Tipping's optional.
Exercise & Air-Conditoning:Short Circuit
Aerobic exercise in your own time and space. Find thirty minutes and twenty square feet. Elevate your heart rate and breathe hard for twenty or thirty minutes. No single exercise is strenuous. But do them all quickly and you'll sweat. Then cool down.
Dance It Off to the Summer Hits
The #1 Summer Hits. Every summer, 1961 - 1970. If you have trouble getting motivated to exercise during the summer heat, I have a suggestion. Put on some music that you can't not dance to. This is aerobic. 30 minutes. Burn about 200 calories. Just crank up the tunes.
It’s Better in the morning
Seems like morning's the best time to exercise. Here are some interesting clinical and survey results that explain the benefits. Especially if you exercise to lose weight and, specifically, to burn fat.
