There's More To Fitness Than How Much You Weigh.
Something that most people don't realise is that physically
there is little correlation between fitness and weight. Your
weight does not define how fit you are. Obviously if your weight
is too high it has an effect on how fit you are, and it
certainly has an effect on your health but the relation between
weight and fitness is nowhere near as strong as most people
believe.
The only true test of fitness is how much exercise you can do.
As your fitness improves, you will have greater stamina and ...

Physical Fitness - Is Your Workout Missing Something?
Copyright 2005 Mike Adams
Hiking along a rocky trail, two of the three friends carefully
picked their way from rock to rock. But one leaped from rock to
rock, bounding by the others like a gazelle running and leaping
from rock to rock. Never missing his footing, the others
wondered at his almost supernatural grace and skill. "How does
he do that?" they thought.
When most people think of physical fitness, they think of
strength and cardiovascular fitness. If they are really thinking
about it, ...

Real Beauty Fitness
Fitness and beauty can be one and the same. Being fit and
healthy will automatically make you look better. A healthy
inside creates a healthy outside.
Fitness through exercise can help you to maintain a healthy body
weight and improve muscle tone.
Our looks reflect the sum total of who we are and how we live,
and the best we can do in life is to make the best of what
nature has given is, without excuse, apology, or pretense. If we
try to live otherwise, we find ourselves acting on a stage ...

Get SMART to Get Fit
I'm not sure who was creative enough to make the acronym work,
but work it does and it can fit in quite nicely with your
fitness goals.
If you want to succeed you need to get SMART about your goals.
SMART is a great way to help you stay on track and achieve your
goals.
The S stands for specific. Be specific about the goals you want
to achieve. Forget things like, "I want to get in shape", "I
want to add muscle", or "I want to lose weight", or "I want to

A Vital Tool For Your Fitness Success
A Training Diary is a Vital Tool For Your Fitness Success
I know you've heard this before and it seems "basic". But it is
an important key to success. And apparently, it isn't heard
enough because I'd say less than 1% of the people I see in the
gym keep track of their workout.
An essential part of the organization needed to get each workout
day right is a training diary. At its most basic minimum this is
a written record of reps and poundage for every work set you do
and an evaluation of each ...

How to Maximize Your Fitness Results
What I am about to reveal to you can make a drastic change in
the out come of your fitness results. Many of us are willing to
dedicate a decent number of hours each and every week to our

we had hoped for. Looking at the big picture, the average
fitness enthusiast only has about 3 to 6 hour per week to

not really a large number of hours. We can drastically increase

Health & Fitness Is Not A 12 Week Program
Copyright 2005 Tom Venuto
Not long ago, one of the members of my health club poked her
head in my office for some advice. Linda was a 46 year old
mother of two, and she had been a member for over a year. She
had been working out sporadically, with (not surprisingly)
sporadic results. On that particular day, she seemed to have
enthusiasm and a twinkle in her eye that I hadn't seen before.

'12 week body transformation challenge." I ...
