Top Accident in Health Clubs – How to avoid falling off treadmill
Falling off the treadmill. This can be embarassing and painful. Here is a video with some examples of falls that we can learn from so we can avoid this painful outcome. My Top Suggestions: 1.) Keep your treadmill at least 3 feet away from the wall in back. People try to cram their treadmill in the corner to maximize space but if you have no room behind your treadmill if you fall your skin will be dragging on the treadmill until you can figure out a way off. OUCH!! (you can see a young girl get caught in this situationin the video) 2.) Use ...
Powerless or Powerful?
I was reading a book on vacation and it quoted a great man and the quote really struck a cord with me. Here is my thoughts on this. Have you ever felt bad for doing something well? Like you should apologize or make excuses as to why you did well so you wouldn't make others feel uncomfortable or bad? Have you ever worked really hard to achieve something to have someone excuse it away using phrases like: "That's nice but wait until you are older. I'd like to see you try it then." "Wait until you are married longer and see if you still ...

My Biggest struggle is nutrition and diet… do you have any suggestions on “Healthy snack/ junk food” that could be a substitution. Also one thing that was very helpful and interesting was when Bo talked about the thermoeffect of food … it would be very helpful to have other information and nutrition facts

Good Morning! My biggest struggle is food! Do you have a suggestion for what types of foods you should eat at each meal? Do you have a suggested plan to follow each day?

I eat too much, and I don’t eat the good things when I’m stressed. I want to nibble, nibble, nibble. Any ideas?

My biggest struggle is the daily craving for fast food & caffeine!! I see that it is not only affecting me but also my 10 year old. How do I break this vicious cycle and find a way to get myself & my daughter eating better & feeling better?

I struggle with my weight. I can lose about 20 pounds then come to a standstill. I become frustrated and fall back into my old habits. What can I do to stay focused and not give up. Thanks Cathy

I am also currently training to run my first marathon in March. So far I have only completed 5 and 10ks, so i haven’t had to consider a fuel belt. However, with training for a marathon, I need to start eating/drinking while running. I am wondering what are some good healthy and nutritious options for the fuel belt and also any nutrition suggestions for before and after running.
In addition, knee strengthening exercises would be great as well.
Thanks and happy christmas!

I struggle to eat as many vegetables as I probably should, and when I do eat them, I find myself avoiding the temptation to add butter, salt, or cheese to make them taste better. Do you have any ideas on how to up my veggie intake while making them more palatable?
Also, I like to change my workouts–bootcamp, spinning, running, etc., but I’ve read that it’s not good to wear the same type of sneakers for all workouts. Since I’m on a bit of a budget, I can’t afford different pairs of sneakers for my variable workouts; any suggestions for one multipurpose pair?
Thanks so much! And thanks for an awesome Christmas workout last night:)
