Runners Need Strength Training
By Craig Ballantyne
Runners are notorious for trying anything to improve performance, from eating "power gel" to buying space-aged shoes. But most runners are missing one key performance booster: strength training.
In a study published in the journal Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, researchers had eight subjects (four men and four women) perform heavy barbell squats three times per week for eight weeks in addition to their regular endurance training. A control group did only the endurance workouts.
Not surprisingly, the strength-training group got stronger (by an average of 33.2 percent in the squat). However, it was a surprise that these men and women also increased their endurance by an average of 21.3 percent. In comparison, the control group did not get stronger or increase their endurance.
This study proves that strength training will make you stronger and improve your endurance - and that will make you a better runner. All it takes is three strength workouts per week for eight weeks, focusing on an exercise such as squats or split-squats.
Note: Long, slow cardio is NOT going to help you get healthy. But strength training and short-burst interval training can. Learn more here: http://georgettepann.com/Bodyweight

Avoid the Freshman Fifteen
TIP #1: It has been proven that aerobic activity done on an empty stomach forces your body to recruit energy from storage. Starting tomorrow take ten minutes out of your morning to walk briskly around the block before breakfast.
TIP 2: Although comfort food seems to taste better right before bed, it is also more prone to stick with us when eaten late at night. It has been proven that not eating three hours before bed reduces fat storage throughout the night.
TIP 3: Eating a small meal every three hours is a great way to keep your metabolism high all day long. When your metabolism is high you burn more calories throughout the day and are less likely to store fat.
Never worry about the freshman 15 again! Email me if you need help

Fitting Exercise into A Busy Schedule
Most Americans' excuses are that they don't have time, or they can't stick with it. Here are some tips on how you can fit exercise into your busy schedule:
Develop an exercise plan that gives you the best chance to succeed. Be realistic. Don't say you will exercise everyday if you know you will only do it three times per week. Exercise in a way that you enjoy. If you don't have time to block off an hour to go to the gym, than try taking two or three fifteen minute walks at different times in your day. Park the car farther away, run errands, walk the golf course. All of these things add up to being more physically active, and that is your goal!
Try to be as active as you can, as often as you can, all day. Visit a co-workers desk instead of sending an e-mail, pace when you are on the phone and stretch when you watch television.
Instead of saying, "I should be exercising, but I'm not," ask yourself, "How can I get my body moving more to create more energy so I can get more out of my day? Or how can I move more to relieve tension and stress so I feel better everyday?"
Busy people say getting started with exercise is a big hurdle. It takes energy to exercise. Sometimes after a long, busy day, it's hard to find energy to exercise. Negotiate with yourself to do just 10 minutes of any kind of continuous movement. Then see how you feel. If you are still too tired, than stop. But chances are you will feel great and want to continue.
Find a buddy to exercise with. Try exercise videos. Walk your dog.
Just say no! Many of us don't know how to say no and we get ourselves involved in too much, leaving little time for ourselves. Exercise has to be a priority, just like everything else.
Sitting for long periods of time can lead to soreness, muscle tension, headaches, backaches and overall feelings of fatigue. Teach yourself not to sit in one place longer than thirty minutes. Get out of your chair. Go to the water cooler. Stand up and stretch your body.
According to the U.S. Surgeon General's Report, you are more likely to stick to an exercise program if you:
Think that, overall, you will benefit from it.
Include activities you enjoy.
Feel you can do the activities correctly and safely.
Have access to activities on a regular basis.
Can fit the activities into your daily schedule.
Feel that the activities don't impose financial or social costs you aren't willing to take on.
Have few negative consequences from doing your activities.
So set yourself up to succeed from the start. Set realistic goals. Learn to exercise safely and correctly and chart your progress to see improvement. If you fall off your program, start again. Exercise should become a lifetime of commitment!

Why Fitness Professionals Recommend Workout Pass To TheirClients
by Yomi A
If you exercise regularly you understand the benefits it canpose to your health and fitness. I have recently found a wayto increase and improve your health and fitness progress ina shorter period of time.
The key to seeing results when you exercise is to performyour exercises right and in the right manner consistently.The lack of knowledge for some people limits their fitnessgoals and the proper way to perform exercises correctly.
We know that finding a fitness expert can hard especiallywhen you know your current fitness goals are not showing anyresults. There is a better way to get the advice of afitness professionals without wasting a lot of precioustime. A membership called "workout pass" gives its membersaccess to 43 different workout websites and each one hasbeen tested and tried by notable fitness experts andtrainers. This is to ensure quality workouts and exercises.
The benefit of workout pass is that it allows you to focuson your workouts that are created by professional athletesand instructors. You can be confident that you are gettingexcellent fitness advice from trusted and respected industryprofessionals. Please caution to the various computerprograms that offer exercise and fitness progress byindividuals who are not certified and un-qualified in thefitness industry. These programs have very little value anddon't offer you much.
Workout pass is just like having your own personal libraryof fitness information and an array of experts that you canturn to. If you are unsure about how to lose weight, workwith equipment, weights or train you abdominal muscles, thenyou will soon know everything in order to develop your body,fitness level and health.
If you are looking to improve your performance in aparticular sport, then you will find customized workoutsspecific to that sport like ice hockey, lacrosse, baseball,basketball, soccer and many more. You will even findworkouts that are gaining popularity in a lot of fitnesscenters like yoga and pilates. With Workout Pass you canfind the possibilities of obtaining sports specific workoutsendless.
There are a lot of products in the marketplace includingthousands of books and magazines on how to lose weight andtrain for fitness. However it is rare to find a huge anddiverse selection of information than you will find in aWorkout Pass membership.
If getting in better shape, losing weight, and increasingyour knowledge of health and fitness is important to you,than getting a Workout Pass is a great way to start. Youwill have access to hundreds of workouts created by topindustry fitness and exercise professionals. What also makesit worthwhile is the low price to get started and a fullmoney back guarantee if your not fully satisfied.Considering all the information that is provided to help youreach your fitness and exercise goals, we think it is worthevery penny.

Here Are 4 Things You Should Know About Bodyweight Exercise
by DK Fynn
I've been doing bodyweight exercise training for a whilenow. In that time, I've discovered a few things that youmight want to know about bodyweight exercising and how tobest approach it. By knowing these 4 things, you'll be ableto overcome some problems you might run into, or even avoidthem altogether.
Had I known these 4 things when I started, I'd have avoideda few surprises:
1. If at first, it seems that you can't do a lot, don't bediscouraged. You're learning a new form of exercise. It'sbetter to focus on proper execution and movement technique,rather than on speed or numbers.
Like anything else that's new for you, it takes practice andpatience to become proficient at your new bodyweightexercises. This brings me to my second piece of advice...
2. ...You don't always have to work yourself toexhaustion--at least not at first, so go easy on yourself.
3. Don't overload yourself by trying to master too manyexercises at one time. If you're new, learning a lot of newexercises, I advise you to master the few ones you likebest. After that, then you can move on to other exercises.
When you can do a previously-challenging exercise a certainnumber of times, with proper technique, then you can move onto conquering the next exercise. Only you can really knowhow many new exercises you can take on at one time withoutoverwhelming yourself. What I'm saying here is to keep itmanageable, so that you don't get overwhelmed anddiscouraged.
Just last week, I was doing a challenging workout, and I wasgetting a bit light-headed. I then realized that I hadforgotten something...
4. ...Breathe. Try forcefully pushing or whistling the airout of your lips as you push yourself past a tough spot. Infact, keep breathing, no matter how hard, throughout theentire movement of the exercise. Make sure you don't holdyour breath; or, at the very least, make sure you don'tbecome light-headed like I did. If you hold your breath atsome sticking points, just make sure it doesn't become ahabit. Don't perform a movement faster than your body cankeep up with.
The newly completed http://bodyweight.shortcutfitnesssecrets.com BodyweightExercise Report"will show you 7 great bodyweightexercises and routines that you can start doing...right now!DK Fynn, a former FAME America Male Model, guides you,step-by-step.
