What kind of workout is this? This is a circuit-training workout, but most people are poor personal motivators and before you know it they are sitting at a machine for 3 minutes or socializing for 5.  The point of this workout is to keep you having fun, focused...

The next step may be to develop low-cost programs in the community that provide appropriate support and structure for adults (especially older adults) to encourage physical activity. A great example of such program is The Adult Playground in Beijing, China (Dhand et al., 2010): Half a football field large, this space consisted of all-weather stretching and strengthening equipment such as elliptical machines, flat benches, modified leg press machines, railings at different heights, monkey bars, and arm and leg rotatory devices. The area was teeming with adults, most older than 60 years, who were not only exercising but also playing games such as Chinese hacky sack (a Chinese game from the 5th centu...

Illnesses can trigger anxiety for a variety of reasons. As people become more anxious, they may find it more difficult to focus on their health – and it becomes a vicious cycle. While some may do well taking anti-anxiety medications, researchers have found that exercise training reduces anxiety symptoms. They came to this conclusion after reviewing the medical literature for studies that investigated the connection between exercise in adults with chronic illnesses who generally didn’t participate in physical activity. Patients had diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, multipl...

If you abhor such articles (like 10 ways to de-clutter your bathroom), then keep on reading. I’m like you. Normal. 1. Bribe yourself. A so-called parenting expert that I read last week claimed that bribing your kid to get him to do something was an example of irresponsible and ineffective parenting. I suspect that the same man sits in his quiet and tidy little office cranking out advice like that while either his wife or nanny is home changing diapers and doling out time-outs. Let’s face it. Bribing is one of the most effective tools to get anyone–your kid, your stubborn mother, your golden retriever, or yourself–to do somethin...

Dr. Robyn McMaster and I just flew in from another electric session with innovative leaders who use hidden brainpower to create solutions that work … against a background of challenges. The trip home was far from innovative or brainy though. It seemed NorthWest hired a craft from matchbox toys … so we were told no carry on bags would be allowed. A small purse squeaked in … but computer bags were fed to this airplane’s belly during flight. Attendants appeared unmoved by the man next to us … who told how his carry on bag was stolen from their fodder a week earlier. Our flight – left late … as paying passengers molded human shapes into sardine sizes to fit shrunken seats.  A plastic cup of water came ju...
