New Weekly Health&Fitness Tipz! It seems with the new year that many are trying to squeeze in new workouts before, after or during work. I think it’s great but i also think they need to be short. Like 15 minutes at most. The reason being that most of us won’t last long forcing long workouts when we’re tired and/or busy. Keep ’em brief. Trim the fat off the workouts. Do 2-4 full-body exercises with shorter rest periods. Hit it and quit. Don’t forget to eat or drink a post-workout meal within 30 minutes!

Note to self: Today i manually self-massaged my right Psoas area by lying on back with both bent knees layed down to the left side. Immediately for the first time in a year or so my hip-flexor tightness/pain seemed to go away. Maybe it wasn’t my external quad hip-flexor/upper groin area that had trigger points. Maybe now my right glutes(medius and maximus) will work better and keep my right knee(mainly medial) from hurting after intense movement.

New Weekly Tipz! When a trainer mentions the word STRENGTH, too often folks assume they only mean the kind of strength burly muscle-bound guys want. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Every man, woman & child needs a basic base level of strength to function properly in the world. But to get it, you must train for it. This should be a top priority for everyone. Doing cardio without ever training for strength is a really bad idea, especially if you are just trying to lose body fat.
