In order to improve our health and physique, we all want to get the most out of our training. I look around and see many people busting their humps every week, without making much of a change (if any) to their appearance.  Hard work is great, and essential to reaching your goals.  But it also takes some smarts!  Below are two tips to help you make noticeable improvements in your health and physique.

The difficulty comes when this honeymoon period ends and the body adapts yet there is still a bit of excess weight being carried.

The tumor is gone, chemotherapy is done so what is next in my treatment plan; RADIATION.

The medical oncologist is nice enough to give me about a month off to rest before the radiation starts. I had an appointment with my radiation oncologist, I already knew her, and she was my husband’s oncologist the year before. See in 2004 my husband was diagnosed with stage 1 testicular cancer.

They should also anticipate that not every run will be a good one. But what about when these truths start piling up?

As its summer we ideally want to spend less time in the gym and more time outdoors. If its not sunny out at least its warmer and more bearable to exercise in the open than the rest of the year and if you are lucky enough to live somewhere hot, well then a gym is not somewhere you really want to be with the nice weather.

Ideally we would all like to feel in good shape, feel well and exercise without the need for fancy equipment.
