Just think for a minute about how you feel when you smile, or how you feel when someone smiles at you. It is important to realize that our good health is not just genetics, chance, the latest virus or even good habits! Here are 7 good reasons to smile. I took this information from the […]


Them bones, them bones

Posted in Exercise, Fitness, Health, Nutrition, Vitamins

Many of us spend a lot of time and money to take care of our appearance. That is not a bad thing! I know when I was a teenager the things that mattered most, that zit on my nose and how to get rid of it! Now that I’m in my fifties I am more […]


Couch to 5k is not for everyone

Posted in Exercise, Fitness, Health

I know running gets such a great write up because of the amount of calories it can burn, but not everything is for every(body)! Anatomically we are not all the same our body frame is not made for every kind of exercise. Knowing what kind of body you have will help you pick the right […]

Body composition and body weight have different value. A person could be thin but still have an unhealthy amount of fat because they don’t have a good percentage of muscle.  Muscle is healthy tissue.  Using resistance training is a great way to build muscle mass. There are numerous exercises that can be done to create […]


Benefits of a well balanced life

Posted in Exercise, Fitness, Food, General, Health, Nutrition

The benefits of eating well and exercising regularly and getting rest far outweigh the alternatives.  If we are burning our candle at both ends, eating on the go and never getting enough restful sleep, eventually we are going to crash and burn.  Quality proteins, I believe best from animal sources, fresh cooked and raw vegetables, […]

Spring Fling

Posted in Exercise, Fitness, Food, General, Health, Nutrition

Spring, yeah! If you are like me and most of the people I know, you can’t wait for the cold dark winter to end and spring to begin. Spring, the days are brighter and start to get longer and so much new life begins. The season itself is motivational.  So how about spring cleaning your […]
