It is fair to say that there are more pressing issues in the world today then who can throw or kick a ball around a park more successfully for a couple of hours....
September 28th, 20170930Let me ask you a question: What is optimal health to you? When I ask this question, I usually get some variation of “The guy with the 6-pack abs” or “The waif-thin actress.”
Part of creating optimal health and weight loss involves making healthy lifestyle choices and this includes taking care of those so-called...
August 14th, 2017921281Last week I saw the “controversial” movie “The Magic Pill” which looks at the role of food in our lives and how what we eat might influence our health.

July 18th, 201601163A couple of weekends back it was raining so, instead of going for a run I used the exercise bike. One bonus (some may disagree) of this is that you can watch TV whilst exercising.

June 27th, 201601311Once upon a time personal responsibility was seen as important. Society felt the role of the individual was to live their lives as best they could. Hardship, at times, was accepted as a part of that life. Heroes were those who persevered through finding ways to deal with adversity. Self-reliance was a positive trait. Those needing help...
April 22nd, 201602955So, here I am, sitting on a plane between Melbourne and Perth I thought I'd reflect on my holiday and I realised something profound.
