Fat 2 Fit Show #50 – 10 Fitness Gifts to Avoid


Written on December 18, 2008 – 1:19 am | by Russ Turley

Just Say No To Saunas

One year ago we talked about 10 fitness gifts that you could give yourself.  Perhaps that loved one in your life just didn’t know what to give you.  You got slippers instead of running shoes.  Or a Hickory Farms Beef Stick instead of a set of weights.  This time we recommend 10 things that it would be best to avoid.  These are all the things that you should return if you get get them this Christmas.

On the e-mail and comment section, Jeff fields a question from Teresa from the US.  She asked about SAD – Seasonal Affective Disorder. It’s a mood disorder in which people who have normal mental health throughout most of the year experience depressive symptoms in the winter.  Russ tackles a question from Sandra from Australia about workouts in the summer months.  Hyperthermia is the culprit here.  We run down some tips to help you stay safe and help you get a good workout while it’s hot and humid out there.  Sweating is a foregone conclusion.

The Web Report brings an article from Jeff about Overlooked Fat Loss Factors.  Russ’s article discusses the recent news that everyone’s favorite yo-yo dieter, Oprah Winfrey, has gained back some weight and is back to 200 lbs.

Homework:
With the holiday season in full swing, here is strategy for surviving all of those parties and dinners.  Simply plan before you attend a party or dinner.  Decide what you are going to eat and how much before you get there.  That just might stop you from being tempted or trying “one of everything” at the dessert table.  Don’t just show up and say “I hope I’m not going to blow my diet again” – some basic planning will always help out.
