Exercise

No equipment. No weights. Just you and your inner thighs against gravity. The easy Way to strengthen your adductor muscles. If you're not sure what or where they are, well, they're the ones you'll be feeling.

Want to burn calories? Dance! Want to dance? Go to a Bruce Springsteen concert. Just saw The Boss in Philly. I was on my feet for four hours. Never sat down. Never stood still. Dance hard for an hour, burn 350 calories. Do the math: 1,400 calories per Bruce concert! Click for the playlist.

Move. As much as you can, as fast as you can, for as long as you can. No more. No less. Sweat. Breathe very deeply. It makes you feel good. It's not hard labor.

This is one of those hikes that makes your day. Makes your vacation. Makes IMAX look like a postcard. Ten miles out and back. Six thousand feet up and down. 4,000 calories burned. A great full day.

It's about your waist, not your weight. Your height-to-waist ratio is a much better indicator of your health than your height-to-weight ratio (BMI). Keep your waist circumference to less than half your height. Or you'll be at significantly higher risk for high blood pressure, diabetes, heart attacks and strokes.

As long as they get. Compared to those short Winter days, these Summer days give you about six extra hours of daylight. You can do a four-hour walk or hike before high noon. Use 'em or lose 'em. Here's how.

Not strong like Arnold. Just stronger than you are now. So that you can do a lot of things more easily and comfortably. Today's "Reverse Fly" strengthens the back and shoulder muscles you use to prevent rounded shoulders. No machines or weights. You can do this with a resistance band.
