Pain Management for Sports Performance
I figured out last Saturday how to be preemptive with pain management for sports performance. I rode the Cascade Bicycle Club’s Flying Wheels Century ride in preparation for the STP (Seattle to Portland) 204 mile ride on July 9. I have never been concerned about my ability to spin my legs for 100 miles or [...]
If We Had Only Listened To Jack LaLanne
Jack LaLanne’s death on Sunday made me stop and wonder what if we had only listened? I remember him saying in every interview that “if God didn’t make it, man shouldn’t eat it.” As a fat kid growing up, I hated Jack LaLane. I already felt bad enough about me and I sure didn’t need [...]
Life with Mom Week 4 ~ The Importance of Exercise
It’s been a quiet week (mostly) on Bainbridge Island in week 4 of our life with Mom. Mom has begun to realize the importance of exercise. (And I haven’t even taught her self-hypnosis, yet.) Mom’s primary caregiver has been working with her on arm and leg strength, posture, ambulation, standing and sitting. The results of [...]
Exercise Crucial for Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

How to Get Started With Exercise When You Are Overweight
On Monday I wrote about Exercising When You’re Overweight so I thought it only appropriate to write today about how to get started with exercise. I know that when I weighed 110 pounds more than I do now, I felt like this couple on the right. The last thing that I wanted to do was [...]
Physically Fit Have Reduced Risk of Colds
I guess that it’s no surprise that physically fit people have a reduced risk of colds. I have noticed at the gym that those who are most regular, seldom miss working out due to illness. I rarely get sick. Its been years since I had the flu (no flu shots) and seldom do I get [...]
10 Exercise Motivation Tips
Even I can use exercise motivation tips on these cold dark mornings. The bed is warm, the room is cold and it is dark out. It is so much easier in June and July to get out of bed at 4:30 when it’s already light out. But, as our days get shorter and darker hibernation [...]

Exercise For Stress & Fat Burning
Reducing stress and burning fat are two reasons for exercise. When I weighed 260 pounds, I hated to exercise. I hated to sweat. I was the classic couch potato. It was with weight loss hypnosis, healthy eating and yes, exercise, that I was able to lose weight and keep it off for over 14 years. [...]
Top 9 Fitness Myths – Busted!
We probably all have our own fitness myths. I have studied fitness training and have trained with at least 12 different skilled fitness trainers over the years and I have heard read conflicting information. Here is what I do know: Your body was made to move. Your body was made to out run attacking animals, [...]
Make Exercise A Vital Sign
It has always bewildered me that exercise wasn’t a vital sign that health care providers looked at when assessing the overall health of their patients. And it has saddened and outraged me that school budgets have forced the reduction in exercise activities both during and after school. With 65% of the US population overweight and [...]
