Cold Weather Workouts
As a trainer and firefighter in New York City for the past twenty years, I've experienced many frigid, New York winters, learning first-hand how important it is to protect yourself against the elements.

Get Fat-Free In 2003 -Resolve To Be Fit
With the major festivities finally over, and the holiday season behind us, it's time to honor the age old American tradition and create your unique list of New Year's Resolutions. There is little doubt that losing weight and getting fit captures the number one spot on many lists.

The Truth About Abs -Two Best Abdominal Exercises
Our bellies are the barometer on how fat we look and feel. A sudden snugness around the waist and you can correctly assume a little extra padding has found its way around your mid section.

Rev Up Your Metabolism -Become a 24-Hour Fat Burner
The average adult will lose about twenty-five percent of their lean muscle mass every decade after age thirty. Both men and women can halt this process of losing muscle mass AND bone density, and stave off the ravages of aging and "inevetible" weight gain. Simply performing a few simple exercises, against a challenging level of resistance, two or three days a week is all you need to do.

Tune Up Your Workout -Dicth the Hype for Best Results
From just minutes a week to hours a day, exactly how much exercise the average person needs to stay fit and healthy remains the topic of discussion.

What's the Best Time to Exercise? -5 Timely Tips
A busy lifestyle can make finding the time to exercise a nightmare. Most Americans that workout are also employed 40-plus hours a week, or manage a household and family, or both! This puts time on short supply, and unfortunately, one of the first things to bite the dust is your fitness program.

5 Minute Rescue Workout -Avoid The Missed Workout Blues
I�ve trained a lot of men and women over the years with a variety of goals and limitations regarding their exercise regimen. Everybody wants something different from a fitness program; fat loss and muscle tone, increased strength and endurance, as well as improved overall health and even emotional wellbeing.

Squat Your Body Perfect -Only Leg Exercise You'll Ever Need
Whether you call it a squat or deep knee bend, no other exercise works more muscle at one time -- period. When adding a simple squat to your lower body program, you may soon find that you need little else to tone and tighten the legs, hips, and buttocks.

Lighten Your Load -To a Long Healthy Career
From the most seasoned veteran, to the wet-behind-the-ears probie, ALL firefighters need to be fit. But just like the rest of America, we succumb to the daily temptation of overeating and under exercising.

Cardio Control -How To Burn More Fat
Stored body fat is the "gas tank" of the human body, or nature's way of making sure you never run out of fuel. Unfortunately, you can't tuck away this fuel supply in some barely visible corner of the body the way today's car manufactures can hide your vehicle's gas tank.

Short Cut to Slim Down -Trim the Fat
I answer many e-mails from confused, albeit enthusiastic readers, on how to trim or firm a specific part of the body. Everybody wants those flat abs, tight thighs, and sexy shoulders, but unfortunately, most are terribly misinformed on how to go about getting them.

Pain Free Weight Loss -10 Ways To Burn Extra Calories
As a society we�re out of shape and overweight. The Center for Disease Control reports that obesity results in 300,000 preventable deaths each year in the United States alone.
