PETER'S PRINCIPLES - NEW IN PRINT
Mike from Oak Park wants the lowdown on what a good strength training program really means.
Mike, it is time to separate fact from fiction!
One strength training myth: It is only for the young, seniors will injure themselves. The fact is, older people need strength training even more than the young. It counteracts the debilitating effects of aging.
Myth #2: Strength training is only for men. The fact is women benefit even more than men because working out helps prevent osteoporosis!
Myth #3: Strength training is time consuming. Not true! You can perform the exercises with 3 twenty minute workouts per week!
Just think, an hour a week to get an hourglass figure. That is a pretty good deal!
Sherry from Troy noticed her local deli is selling hamburger loaded with cherries. She wants to know if it is really healthier than plain ground meat.
Sherry, cherry burgers not only taste delicious, but Michigan State University researchers discovered it makes it safer for grilling! Researchers found that adding tart cherries increased the anti-oxidants in meat.
It not only makes it taste better but suppresses the amount of cancer forming gases produced when grilling by as much as 90%.
