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.
I'm really not into telling you what to wear on your feet or any other body part. But I've had such a good experience with these strange new running shoes I thought I should let you know. Because I know you'll exercise more when it feels good.
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.

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.

This just in: Regular jogging shows dramatic increase in life expectancy. I thought you'd want to know. How regular? 1 or 2 hours per week. How fast? Slower. "Slow" or "moderate" paces produce the greatest increase in longevity.
Actually, let's let a computer at the National Institutes of Health do the math for you. Plug in your age, weight, height and a few other things. Press Play. A second later, you have the answer: Slower. So what's the question?
