Fit Tip

Don't do anything else once you have convinced yourself to go to the gym (park, home gym, streets).  Just get with it!  Make up your mind to do at least 15 minutes; you'll feel better.

I'm again reminding folks to honor this weekend's holiday and make it your goal to engage in some healthy activities while having fun!  A great way to build strong muscles and core strength is through Yoga.  Search for a class at your gym, park, rec center, or grab a DVD and enjoy activating your mind, strengthening your core, and stretching out the seasons kinks.  A quick you tube search will land you on many examples of yoga sessions of all types and times.

Great news for this Monday!  The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research has reported that 16 oz. of coffee consumed about an hour before a workout can help you lift more.  Caffeine blocks the signals of pain and fatigue that muscles send to the brain.
