Songs tell us to “Walk This Way” and “Walk the Line.” Monty Python instructed us at “The MInistry of Silly Walks.” But until now, today, right here on F and F there has been bupkus, nada, zip on how a walker is to know Whether to Walk WIth or WIthout Weights. Wonder no more readers!

Why No Weights While Walking?

Love Exercise; Work is a Pain Though
Too much sitting hurts! Desk jockeys unite and take back your back and shoulder pain. Fire up your muscles so you don’t get fired at work. TIme to stand up for yourselves and stand up more! Stretch; roll out your shoulders, invest in a fitness minute break. We’re not going to take this lying or sitting down anymore!

HomeBody Workout
There seem to be at least two Alexandras in Santa Barbara, and one of them wants to add some weight-training so she can drop that elusive last five pounds. And the other Alexandra? Meh! Not so much. She thinks a good exfoliant and scrub will slough it off. Women. Weights. Wow!

Muscles, Myths and Miss Informed
Women and Weights? Do they go together? Is it a myth or fact that women can get huge muscles from weight-training? Does just being in the same room with bars and plates turn women into bodybuilders? And is a tiny swimsuit the best outfit for weight-training?

Spin, Rinse, No Wash Out Cycle
Has your fitness routine left you feeling like you were spinning your wheels? No longer getting that metabolic bump and boost? Is it better to go more often, but work out shorter or to go less often and work out longer? TIme to ramp up the amp up and boot your booty into the spin-o-sphere!
More People, More Fun, More Fit, Living Longer – Carey Fraley
Age expectancy of those born in 2010 is LONG, shares Senior specialist, Carey Fraley in her 1 minute Fun and Fit video tip. Also, today and tomorrow’s seniors can have the most fun working out and staying active.

Pregnant, Physically Phit, and Powerful
She’s fit, active, strong, and a competitor. A little pregnancy won’t hold this mom-to-be back as her front grows! But too little advice is leaving her more exhausted than a triathlon. Who and what should she listen to: her doctor? her own body? her husband? Fun and Fit?! the little voices in her head that say “yes, honey you do have pregnant butt”?

Stretch Before or After a Hike & Fight?
We take bets about stretching; We take bribes (about time!) When two people go out for a nice hike and one wants to stand and stretch first and the other thinks it best to wait until post-activity to “enjoy the view” aka stand around and stretch, who gets thrown under the bus on this bet sent our way? Can romance survive the “Stretch Before or After” debate?

Shin Splints S.O.S.
Shin splints hurt. How can you get rid of them? How can you prevent them? Why do so many runners insist on wearing old, crummy shoes?
