Put that Scale Away!

I don't even know where my scale is. After you establish your weight, put the scale away for 3 months. You can do measurements with a tape measure when you feel the desire. Some folks actually gain muscle weight and this can be discouraging, but their clothes are fitting better, they are sleeping better, and they have more energy.The focus is on all on their weight and they miss all of these positive changes. So put that scale away!

How to reduce post exercise sorness?

Typically when you have do an intense workout, you will be sore 1-2 days after your workout. This is normal. This is called delayed onset muscle sorness. This is microscopic tearing of the muscle fibers. Generally this sorness happens when you increase the duration, intensity or you are just starting to workout. Those of us that have been training for awhile, to avoid this you may try modifying the intensity or duration of your workout. This will work for all levels of fitness.
