What's the Deal with Spikeball?
I noticed a new game recently while at the beach, called Spikeball. I've never seen it before so I decided to do a little research.
Basically, Spikeball is a lot like volleyball except instead of hitting the ball over the net, you hit it onto a circular net/trampoline to volley the ball to your opponents.
What's the Deal with Body Wraps?
Wrap it up, and watch the pounds melt off. If only it were that easy.
With claims that body wraps push fat cells together and allow your body to change into a slimmer shape, many folks are turning towards such treatments in search of losing a few unwanted pounds instead of hitting the gym.
What's the Deal With Rate of Perceived Exertion?
If you read fitness magazines or FitSugar regularly then you have probably noticed that we use the Rate of Perceived Exertion, or RPE, as a way to measure your exercise efforts. This 1-10 scale seems way more complicated than it really is, but it's a great and easy way for anyone to monitor her exercise intensity when doing cardio. What's more?
What's the Deal with The Cardio Free Diet?
Anyone watching Good Morning America the other day may have seen the piece they did on The Cardio Free Diet ($13.80). Anyone who knows anything about exercise was probably just as stunned as I was.
The basic principal of the Cardio Free Diet is that cardio is a waste of time and it ruins your diet by making you hungry all of the time, so you shouldn't do it and should focus on weight training instead.

Do you love shoes? I sure do. It's a strange phenom really, women and their shoes.
What's the Deal with: The Bar Method?
Looking for a new way to get fit? Maybe you should try the bar. Not that type of bar, silly...
What's the Deal with Customized Vitamins?
Your way, right away, even when it comes to supplements...
While nutritionists, researchers, doctors and scientists are arguing the worth of multivitamins, companies like Mitamins, are profiting from custom made supplements. How it works: You fill out a form about yourself and they create a supplement unique to your needs.
What's the Deal with: The Good Mood Diet
Is your diet bringing your mood down? You're not alone.

What's the Deal with: The Fluidity Bar
Have you always wanted the body of a dancer, but you're no prima-ballerina?
The Fluidity Method ($199.80) works the whole body. When you stand up and use your own body weight for resistance, you engage all of your muscles to work together.

What's the Deal With Kerri Walsh's Shoulder Tape?
Watching Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor kick some sand-covered butt has been a highlight of the Summer Olympics so far, and I'd love to see this dynamic duo go home with the gold. Meanwhile, I've been puzzling over the multicolored tape that Walsh has been wearing on her shoulder; sometimes it's black, sometimes it's blue, but clearly it's there for a reason.
I did a little research and discovered that this stuff is called Kinesio Tex Tape, and it's being used by a number of Olympians this year.
