8 Great Fitness Tips
I was reading through all my fitness blogs this morning, and stumbled across these great fitness tips created by Valerie Waters. If you have never heard of Valerie Waters, she is personal trainer to stars such as Jennifer Garner, Jessica Biel, Cindy Crawford, Richard Gere, Elizabeth Berkley, Benicio Del Toro, Jim Carey, etc... She has also put together one of the best workout programs, The Red Carpet Ready System.Interval Training
So in my weight loss plateau, my trainer suggested I start doing interval training. Basically it's hard, easier, hard, easier etc etc. He gave my goals for my heart rate monitor (120 low end and 170 high) and I did it today.mymaria's workout log: Mon-Wed Sep 3rd-5th
Ok, so I really want to get in a post before I run out of time before I leave tomorrow before dawn for my trip to SLC for my friend's wedding. I am very proud to report that I have exercised as I planned for two weeks, every day (I will double check later to make sure that's true) since my boyfriend's visit! Who hoo!Circuits For Fat Loss
Are you lacking the time to exercise? Are you short on money and can’t afford a gym membership? Do you lack workout equipment?What is a Superset?
There may be a time when you have little time to get in a good workout, a superset is a great way to get in a butt kicking workout in a short period of time. A superset is when you perform two or more exercises in a row with no rest. You can superset any body parts together but its best to use opposing bodyparts, such as chest and back, biceps and triceps.

Most certainly not a typical week, shocker, I know. Why is summer so crazy? You look forward to it all summer, but then there's so much going on that it all rushes by so quick?Favorite workouts
Anybody want to share your favorite workout with the group? I love getting new ideas for the gym or for at-home routines to mix it up. My latest favorite at the gym is 30 minutes on the treadmill with challenging intervals (warmup, 3 sets of 3min fast, 1min easy, 4 sets of 2min fast + incline, 1min easy, cool down), followed by 20 minutes of random hills on the stationary bike.mymaria's workout log: Sun-Mon July 8-9th
Journaling these down two at a time seems to be working pretty well. If I wait any longer I have a hard time remembering what I did since my workouts have been so varying recently! Sunday - my original plan was long cardio and lifting.Eaker's Workout Log Aug 13-15
I've been doing pretty good this week, for exercise at least. I made the mistake of picking up a 6pack of Miller Chill when I went grocery shopping on Sunday. It is tasty, and as of Tuesday night .Time for a little Q&A
Many of us are wondering some of the questions or something similar so I decided I'd post the answers (I didn't come up with these answers MsnBc did.) Q: When I work out, I spend 20 minutes on the elliptical trainer and 15 minutes on the treadmill, and then lift on weight machines. But I cannot seem to reduce my stomach size. What should I be doing differently?
