Today's Featured Topics



Blisters!
Blisters can bring your activity to a complete halt. Worse, it may be days before your foot, hand, etc. can tolerate performing the same activity again. The key is prevention: properly-fitted shoes or boots; good, thick socks; use of Body-Glide, etc. Read our review and recommendations at: "Blisters: Prevention and Treatment"

Exercise Books and Videos



TITLE:  "Take A Load Off Your Heart"
AUTHOR:  Piscatella J, Franklin B
LENGTH:  380 pages
LIST PRICE:  $14.95

While this is not an exercise/fitness book, "Take A Load Off Your Heart" is a resource that you should seriously consider adding to your library if you are sedentary. Coronary artery disease is still a huge problem in the US. (Just ask lead author Joe Piscatella: he had a heart attack in his 30's.) This is unfortunate because heart attacks (myocardial infarctions) are highly preventable with proper diet and regular exercise. Mandatory reading for those with risk factors for heart disease!
