How to Move the Needle
Maintaining your fitness level isn't that hard, you just keep doing what you've been doing. Back (waaaaay back) in the day, my fitness regime was to go to 24 Hr Fitness in Larkspur, sit on the bike for 30 minutes while I read a book or a magazine, listening to music on my Walkman (I …

The Bare Minimum – Travel Edition
I am pretty disciplined about my workout schedule. Even on vacation. Whether a 10 day Hawaiian getaway or a 4 day road trip, I set a plan to get in the bare minimum of exercise each day. Bare minimum? Yep. Just enough to break a sweat and stick to my schedule. Because let's be real …
Perfect Your Plank
Here's how to perfect your plank. And be patient young Padawan, this one takes some getting used to. Lay face down on the ground.
