Swim Paddles Vs. Swim Gloves

Well today I took swimming laps with a paddle and glove to the test. I heard how great swimming with a paddle are. Boy what a difference it really was.

Not only did I feel I had a better upper body workout, but with my legs as well. If you are looking for a a great workout while swimming then go with a swim paddle. You will be glad you did!

Speedo I.M. Tech Paddles

After swimming with gloves for a long time, I started to think about the resistance they offer vs. swimming with paddles. I started doing research  and the reviews from people seemed to lean toward the paddles. So I started reviewing different paddles and gave the Speedo I.M. Tech paddles a go.

I swam for about 45 minutes and boy what a difference it really was swimming with the paddles. Far better resistance. Not only did I feel I had a better workout with my upper body, but with my legs as well. The paddles are very light weight and found them very comfortable as well. When I did take the paddles off after the swim, my finger felt sore for a few minutes, but then I was fine. I am really going to look forward to many great resistance swimming sessions to coming. Time to step up my swimming workout!

Vega Sport Pre-Workout Energizer

Before I start any workout, I make sure to give myself a good boost of energy. For the past couple of years I have been taking Vega Sport Pre-Workout Energizer. Wow, this product is incredible. I take it about 20 minutes before my workout and then it is like that energy boost kicks in. There have been days I have forgotten to take this product and I definitely notice a difference. I feel more energized and more focused. I even have taken this product at work and I find it keeps me going for a while. I don't feel any shakes with a great level of that energy to allow me to have a great workout. This is a product that is a must have.

Meditation

I had been hearing more and more about meditation, so I thought tonight why don't I give it a try. I turned off the lights, computer monitors, sat on the floor and listened to this video while trying to focus on my breathing for 20 minutes. There were a few occasions that I started thinking of something else, but when I did, I stopped myself and went back to focusing on my breathing. I have to say it is so relaxing. I am going to learn more and more about meditation and especially Transcendental Meditation. If you have any suggestions or want to share your experiences, please comment below.

Do You Drink Alcohol During Or After A Workout? Then Alcotox Is A Must Have

So you have a great workout and you want to reward yourself with your favorite drink or beer. You may even drink most of the day and or into the night. The next morning you wake up with a horrible hangover. 

A hangover cure is good. Prevention is better. Alcotox takes it a step further. It replaces key nutrients lost during alcohol consumption and also reduces Acetaldehyde. This is the toxin that alcohol is converted into by the liver, and is 30 times more toxic than alcohol itself. Research shows that virtually every known alcohol related health complication is linked to Acetaldehyde, including hangovers. Independent In Vitro laboratory tests show that just one capsule of Alcotox is able to reduce 86% of Acetaldehyde in common alcoholic beverages. The implication to health benefits therefore, are quite significant. Reduced hangover symptoms can now be viewed as a barometer for increased overall health and well being.

How I Go To Sleep and Wake Using the Phillips Wake Up Light

Wake up light options: http://amzn.to/1LFOstE

I sped up the speed to give you an idea.

Phillips does not make my model anymore, but recommend a wake up light to wake and go to sleep with. It will create and dusk and sunrise effect. It is awesome. You will love it. Falling asleep can be a challenge. With the dusk effect, it will help you fall asleep fast. In the mornings, you will love waking up to the sunrise effect. It will allow you to get up much easier and potentially eliminate the need to press that snooze button. Once you start falling asleep and waking easier, you will feel better.

HYGEE (HOO-GAH) - EXTRA WARMTH FOR YOUR NECK!

HYGEE (HOO-GAH) - EXTRA WARMTH FOR YOUR NECK!

Great new product available from Spandits: www.spandits.com for Men, woman and kids. Lots of color options to choose from. Visit the website to view them

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Our new fleece-lined Hygge (neck warmers) is the perfect winter running companion! These moisture-wicking neck warmers can be pulled up over your mouth and nose and are made to stay in place! They not only keep cool air off your neck, but also trap the water vapor you exhale, making the air you inhale moist and a bit warmer -- a lot easier on your lungs. 

Lined with four-way stretch fleece, our hygge works like polar bear fur to trap air to improve fabric thermal insulating characteristics.  The heat is stored in the hollow core center and released back to your body to keep you warm without added weight and the full freedom of movement.

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HYGGE?

Hygge is an old Danish concept that helps Danes get through the long, dark winter.  It's the art of building sanctuary and community, of inviting closeness and paying attention to what makes us feel open hearted and alive. To create well-being, connection and warmth. A feeling of belonging to the moment and to each other. Celebrating the everyday.

Hygge happens when we commit to the pleasure of the present moment in its simplicity. It's there in the small rituals and gestures we undertake to give everyday life value and meaning, that comfort us, make us feel at home, rooted and generous.

In our overstretched, complex, modern lives, hygge is a resourceful, tangible way to find deeper connection to our families, our communities, our children, our homes and our earth. It’s an uncomplicated, practical method of weaving the stuff of spirit and heart into daily life without sentimentality then taking time to celebrate it on a human scale.

Hygge is a kind of enchantment – a way of stirring the senses, the heart and the imagination – a way of giving something ordinary a special context, spirit and warmth, taking time to make it extraordinary.
