Fitness and Health Workshop in Fairfax April 20

Hey, DC readers — stop by the City of Fairfax Regional Library, 10360 North Street, for a free fitness workshop at 1 p.m. Saturday, April 20.

At this workshop, I'll discuss nutrition, exercise, weightlifting, fitness, BMI and more. Bring your questions, ideas and a little enthusiasm.

If you're not in the metropolitan Washington area, drop me a line with your fitness questions or concerns. I'll get right back to you — and, who knows, it may inspire a blog entry. (Anonymity guaranteed, if that's your wish.)

Fitness Friday: Leg Day

Fitness Friday: Primal Workout

Today's hottest fitness trend, primal workout, is a lot of work, but also looks like a lot of fun.

In the primal workout, exercisers mimic the movements of animals in the wild: run, scurry, hop, stretch like a variety of animals. I will have my clients give this a try — but I also will keep it light and interesting.

Watch the BBC video above, then try it for yourself — and let me know how you fared.


Remember: work hard, be careful, have fun.

Fitness Friday: Impossible? Ask Arthur.

This video proves that we can achieve what some call "impossible," as long as we're willing to try ‚ and to never give up.

It features Arthur Boorman, a disabled veteran who was told by his doctors he would never be able to walk on his own again. He tried a yoga program by Diamond Dallas,  a professional athlete and motivational speaker and — well, Arthur proved a lot of people wrong, and he changed his life.

Never give up. Do your best. Reach your goals. Be your best. Those aren't just words, they're challenges you can meet, if you try.
