Today's Tip

From Trainer Scottie Reall:
Exercise is essential for weight loss
It's nothing new, but exercise is probably the most important predictor of whether you will succeed at long term weight loss and weight loss maintenance. In order for exercise to be helpful in weight loss, you should strive for a minimum of five 30 minute sessions per week. The good news is that recent research has shown that three 10 minute sessions in a day are as good as one 30 minute session. Therefore, the excuse of “having no time to work out” can be thrown out the window!

Thanks Scottie for the tip regarding exercising 3 times a day for 10 minutes.

I ususally work out daily, either walking, running, eliptical, core and weight train 3 x's a week. But I just started working more hours and I'm going to school for one quarter so it's going to get more difficult to spend the time that i like. I'm finding it's hard to get to the gym daily. I do have equipment in my basement and the weather is still nice in NE Ohio so I get outside when I can. I think I forgot to mention I'm more then middle aged and a wife/mother (of a 13 yr old girl). Exercies has always been a part of my life and I love it, it's the best medicine for my fibromyalgia. I'm glad to know that when I do my little 10 minute sprints of some sort of exercise (on days i can't go longer) it is working to my benefit. I guess this message is to mothers who feel they don't have the time to exercise..........use your kids as weights when they are little and then when they get older and can ride a bike have them follow with you while you walk or run. Playgrounds are great for tag, running up and down the slides or climbing the junglegym, great 10 minute workout and playing with you child too. The housework can wait, your time with your child and your health is more importnt. Oh yes and you can also include your worship time with your kids on the playground and or park wherever. God loves when we talk to Him all day and worship Him in His creation. Dad's included too.
Loving Jesus, Blessings to all.......Judy
