    PB2 Review

    Love peanut butter but trying to watch the fat or calories? Is it really possible to get the flavor of peanuts with only 15% of the fat? Sounds too good to be true ... or is it?

Fitness Tip

  • “Cotton is rotten” is a mantra for serious runners everywhere. But this rule of thumb is applicable to anyone exercising. Avoid wearing cotton attire (especially socks) when you workout. Cotton doesn’t move water away from the skin (aka wicking), so blisters become the norm.

    Instead of cotton, look for a synthetic blend that not only helps wick the sweat away, but also breathes well, which helps cut down on the amount of sweat to begin with. Ideally, your shorts/pants and top would be a synthetic blend too, which will help minimize chaffing.

    Having quality clothes when you exercise is just one more way to cut down on excuses not to.

Fitness Equipment

Testimonials

  • As I reached my mid 50s, decades of sedentary jobs, little exercise, and too many snacks were taking their toll. With help from Matthew, I lost 25 pounds(!) and I am in better shape now at age 55 than I was at 45.

  • Vitamix Review: Our Favorite Appliance

    Vitamix. Is it everything they say it is? I'm here to tell you, it's more. This multi-purpose, powerhouse of a machine will not only help get you healthier, you'll be looking for excuses to use it. It's without its flaws, but we wouldn't trade it for 100 pounds of organic kale.
