I work with a lot of fitness nuts where I work in a corporate law office. Many of my coworkers are pretty good about getting to the gym, and many of them also happen to be good runners. Some of them even run marathons regularly, which is beyond me, since I don’t have the long winded lung capacity to do that, of course unless I trained more (anyone can gain the lung capacity to do it, it’s just a matter of consistently training for it months in advance).

Wow. I can’t believe that here we are, looking forward to the new year, which is (gulp) 2009! Did you ever think you’d see years this advanced? I know as a kid even the year 2000 seemed unfathomable, as it does I’m sure for any kids who have spent the majority of their life in a different millenium. It’s definitely interesting to put things in perspective and see how your outlooks have matured.

It occurred to me that back when I was a smoker, I didn’t really have that bad of a time keeping up with my workouts, considering I have asthma and should not smoke in the first place, and that smoking impairs the lungs and makes it much harder for us to process oxygen when we are doing any sort of vigorous activity.

Water workouts are some of the best, most calorie burning and relaxing, seemingly stress free forms of exercise you can get. You burn an extraordinary amount of calories when you swim or do any type of water related exercise that is somewhat vigorous and constant, and the best part is, you do it without even noticing that you are burning the immense of amount of energy that you are – that is, until you get out and a half hour later you’re ravenously hungry!

It’s seems somewhat counterintuitive, but during times of economic downturn, public and private gyms tend to see more people using their gym memberships. Even now, reportedly, which is smack in the middle of the holiday season, gyms are reporting that they are seeing increases in the amount of patronage, which is usually the opposite of what is expected since people usually avoid the gym around this time, and it picks back up as everyone’s new years resolution after the first of the new year.

Wanna give someone a gift that gives and gives for years to come? Buy them a high quality elliptical machine like a, or a treadmill such as a Horizon treadmill or a Proform treadmill, two of my all time favorite brands in home exercise equipment because they’re sturdy, they last forever, and they make it feel like you’re working out in a professional gym because they give the same workout feel and results. Not only that, but around the holidays, especially this holida and possibly next if the economy doesn’t pull itself together, you will be finding some of the best deals- deals of a lifetime on these awesome pieces of workout equipment.

It’s not even officially the holidays, and people are already finding that it’s harder and harder to get to the gym. Heck, even at the gym I workout at, at my place of employment, is pretty much cleared out for the whole month of November and December, and then of course follows with a surge of the New Year’s Resolution people in mid January, already tapering off by early march.

You can sort of tell by looking at the incoming president and his leading lady, Michelle Obama, and of course I’m referring to her thin but fit husband, president-elect Barack Obama, that they are fit people. They have that healthy look to them, and if you’ve noticed Michelle Obama’s trimmed arms, you know that she probably has some sort of fitness routine that she sticks to in order to get those, since upper arm fat is one of the areas where women tend to accumulate their fat deposits.
