Why Scales Lie by Renee Cloe, ACE Certified Personal Trainer (reprinted with permission: http://www.naturalphysiques.com/) We’ve been told over and over again that daily weighing is unnecessary, yet many of us can’t resist…

WONDER WOMAN
Saw it this weekend with lots of anticipation. I didn't hate it, but didn't love it either. It was an origin movie so sometimes they can get a little slow, but to me it was pretty slow. Gal Gadot did a great acting job and kept my attention though. All in all this has been the best of the DC movies so far along with Man of…

Martial Arts and "chi"
So I'm a big Star Wars fan and love the "idea" of the Force. Wouldn't it be great to have those powers? But in martial arts, they've been promoting "chi" for centuries. When I trained as a kid, it was so believable because of the demonstrations they were showing us. And even today, you see demonstrations of it (no touch…

Which stall?
You walk into a public bathroom. There are 4 stalls open and empty. The closest one walking in is stall number 1, then 2, etc. Which stall do you use? This was actually an experiment to see which stall is frequented the most and which ones have the most bacteria. A.C.E. Certified Personal and Group Fitness Trainer IDEA…

Considering ARTIFICIAL TURF
Living in CA, our water has only gone up in price. Last couple of years I've had to let my lawn suffer because of water restrictions. So I've considered artificial turf. It's not cheap, but if anyone has it now, could you give me some pros and cons of owning and maintaining it? A.C.E. Certified Personal and Group Fitness…

Thoughts on this
You see it in pro basketball, where star players sit during the regular season to avoid injury or get some extra rest once they are in the playoffs even if they are fine to play. Now in college, to ensure better draft position or to make sure they have an NFL career, players are sitting out their BOWL games. Christian…

Opinion on this
The San Bernadino shooting was a horrible event. In light of it, the victim had a domestic violence history with her husband. So in light of that, though people don't want to air their dirty laundry at work, should she have notified administration about possible behavior by him and made sure he wasn't allowed to see her at…

Prenuptial agreement? What do you think?
A friend of mine got recently divorced. He was financially independent and didn't get a prenup signed. His ex wife (who is 15 years younger) and he were married for 5 years and no kids. Now it's a major court battle for money. Had he signed an agreeable prenup, this may not be the case. With divorce rates at 50%, if you…

So what's worse: being a smoker or being overweight/obese?
An interesting debate two members of my gym. One who doesn't smoke and is very overweight and who smokes before and after the gym, but is pretty lean and fit (even though he smokes). The smoker claimed that he would likely out live the non smoker. So I had to see where this went. The smoker claimed that if you went to…

Customer Service Rant
If you work in customer service in ANY BUSINESS, please don't tell me that everything is fine on your end! If I didn't have a problem, I wouldn't be *kitten* calling you. I can think of better ways to spend my free time. Took me 45 minutes to clarify that I was getting charged data for something that I shouldn't be getting…

Do you really only have one "soulmate"?
Lots of my friends and even some family have gone through divorce. Many times people will claim that a person is their "soulmate" for life, yet somehow it doesn't work out. Then down the line they meet someone else and have a relationship again. I don't believe that anyone has a "soulmate". I believe that two people can…
