“Micro-Session” Cardio Works Best
[ Sometimes I read an article so great I have to all my readers. This recent post by fitness expert Jon Benson is one of those articles. See if it doesn't help you with your weight loss goals. Thanks! ]
Several recent studies have pointed to the validity of doing very short cardio sessions (10 minutes) several times a day as being as beneficial… or even better… than one longer session. I agree, assuming you do some form of interval work in your cardio sessions. In fact, unless you want to drop a lot of bodyfat, you can get by with one 9-minute session a day if you do it right.
Quick Start: Try three super-short sessions with at least a 2-3 minute higher-intensity ‘burst’ in the middle. You do not have to go to the gym to do this. You can do this by walking stairs, stepping up and down on a low platform, or even walking outside. Let’s face it: 10 minutes is a lot easier on the brain than 30 minutes… and just as good.
For More Information: When you pick up my book The Every Other Day Diet you’ll have a chance to get my book 7 Minute Body for 1/3 the retail price for a limited time only.
In 7 Minute Body, I cover my personal 9 and 15-minute cardio sessions, my 3-minute abs workout (no kidding… I do not train my abs for more than 3 minutes!) and more.

Time takes its toll on your body, and when it comes to your breasts, you need to make sure that have them checked regularly. If you want healthy and perky breasts, a healthy diet always helps. Maintaining your ideal weight can do wonders to its form. Remember, you also have breast cancer to worry about, aside from its shape. Eat your vegetables because a diet that’s low in fat offers protection against cancer-producing cells. Aside from a healthy diet, you also need to break a sweat regularly. Aim to exercise at least three times a week and make sure that you tone the muscles in your chest area. That way, gravity won’t take its toll quickly on your body.
Go to your doctor for regular checkup and see what you can do to maintain your shape. Another great option is to go for a breast lift surgery. Your desire to get the procedure could stem from a number of reasons. Basically, if you remain unsatisfied with your body even after you’ve done what you can, you can seek the help of a surgeon. Make sure to get someone competent enough so you can bring your chest back to its former glory. You’ll see that you’ll feel so much better afterwards because a simple lift can make a big difference to your appearance.
Most of the patients are women who have passed the age of 40 or who had multiple births. Breast tissue will sag with time, and the older you are, the more unappealing they can seem. And with society vying to look younger than ever, you can’t help but jump in the bandwagon as well. Just know that if you plan to have more children in the future, breast feeding is a possibility. You can no longer nourish your baby naturally after you’ve had work done on your breasts, especially when implants are involved. You may just have to put the plan on hold until your children have grown.

And like many major decisions you have in life, you have to look into the pros and cons of a breast lift surgery. Complications are a possibility, though highly unlikely with a skilled doctor. Some have been known to suffer from extreme swelling, extensive bleeding and scarring, and unsightly discoloration. If you don’t react well to the anesthesia, you could develop blood clots and possibly put your life on the line. But before you go into panic mode, these complications don’t occur as often as you think, and happen mostly when women seek the help of an unlicensed surgeon who charges a much cheaper price. When you talk to the right doctor, they are actually confident with the fact that you’ll come out from the entire experience unscathed, and that’s because proper testing has been done before you are wheeled into the operating room.
Should you choose to embark on this journey, think about how much impact it could have in your life. Most importantly, set aside enough cash. This is an investment that will be worth every penny because a bang-up job could destroy your confidence. The point of the breast lift is to feel good, and when it comes to your body, you shouldn’t dive into any decision.

Old Age – Your Choice?
Old Age – Your Choice?
Hi there!
|
Everybody goes through troublesome situations. Almost everyone has been subject to misery and pain. With all that, how is it possible to move on to our next phase and enjoy the golden years that are still there for us? We have put all that bad stuff behind us but it’s still present in our minds. As the saying goes, “only two things are certain in this life, death and taxes.” Usually, the person then goes on to speak about taxes, but as we get older, we have to look the prospect of death in the eye. How are we going to do that? With strength and self-assurance? Or are we going to cower before death and give him a victory even while we are still alive? Old age is your choice! I know what I want to do, and I think that you have the same desire, whether you can achieve it or not.
What do you feel like right now? Is your body relaxed and younger-feeling than it really is? Have you come to grips with your real age? If that’s a problem for you, then you need to get a new way of thinking. If you can modify your attitude about your age, you can make astounding changes in your life. Your whole body will respond with a more positive outlook on life, your personality will reflect the potential joy that surrounds you, and even your looks will improve – those troublesome lines and wrinkles will not necessarily disappear, but they will become less noticeable, and many will turn into laugh lines. Just think, life – your life – is just sitting there, waiting for you to enjoy it to the fullest. It’s up to you to pick the cherries while you can. Old age is your choice.
How to do that? How do you “pick the cherries?” Well, it starts every morning. When you wake up, and make sure that you are thinking positive thoughts, that those nasty dark thoughts are banned from your head. Think about how you have been blessed: you are free to breathe good air, live in a comfortable house with people you love and who love you, enjoy your day. Old age is your choice, count your blessings; you’re bound to have many. And don’t stop where you are, go after all the new blessings you can find as well – new flowers and plants in the garden and along the street, new friends and acquaintances, even new TV programs (hmm, well maybe not). The important thing is to get and maintain a positive point of view on your entire existence. It’s your responsibility to take care of your own positive thoughts.
There is nothing that says you cannot stay active as your age increases. Daily routines are a pain, and they will drag you down with them into their boring daily cycles, but only if you let them. Vary your required activities, do them at a different time, go here and there via different routes and explore new areas, energise your mind and pump up your imagination with new experiences. Take life by the throat and love it! Old age really is your own choice: take control of your life and live it to the hilt, or grow old before your time, stewing in your own juices. You say you’ve made mistakes in the past? Who has not? But you can’t change those errors now; the thing to do is to face them down, accept that you made a mistake, but learn from it and life goes on! You have to let the old wounds heal themselves and go away. If you don’t do that, you will be covered by old wounds and look like the loser you have decided to be. Did you get the drift there? “The loser YOU have decided to be.” Don’t. Old age – your choice. Think positively and show it.
“Old age” comes in two varieties: the physical aging of the body, and the mental aging that can accelerate the physical aging if you let it. If you become old mentally, you’re done for. Your mind will convince your body that it cannot do even the normal things that it still is capable of doing, and you will kill yourself before your time. The correct, positive outlook will support your body and allow it to create joy and pleasure for you. You cannot stop physical aging, but you certainly can prevent yourself from becoming “prematurely old”. Think about it, you’ve probably seen and maybe even known some people who, at 40 or 45 years, were already older than most people at 75. Except in rare cases, that’s not physical, that’s mental aging. You don’t have to succumb to that. Enjoy your life, right up to, and even beyond, the limits that you set for yourself. That’s how to achieve the best you can do. “I don’t want to get old?” Old age is your choice!
