Health and Fitness Equipment

Have you been thinking about what you want in your home gym? Just what health and fitness equipment do you want to invest in?

Your first piece of health and fitness equipment is you. You are the one who must provide all the energy. You are the one who will walk on the treadmill or around the block.

So what is it you want to do. Do you like to walk or hate to walk and love to ride a bike? If you are thinking an indoor bike is the ticket, be sure you look at the recumbent bikes. Those are the ones that allow for more comfort on your spine and therefore allow for more time working out.

One of the cheapest items in health and fitness equipment is simple hand weights. You can start with 1 pound and just keep working up. They take up a very small space and can even be packed in your suitcase if you do traveling.

Hand weights are perfect for the beginner. You can even carry them while you are doing your daily walk. I keep a set on my desk. They remind me to take frequest breaks and stretch and then do a few exercises. My goal right now is to get rid of the flabby arms.

The Laugh for today

A young Nun who worked for a local home health care
Agency was out making her rounds when she ran out of
Gas. As luck would have it, there was a gas station
Just one block away. She walked to the station to
Borrow a can with enough gas to start the car and
Drive to the station for a fill up. The attendant
Regretfully told her that the only gas can he owned
Had just been loaned out, but if she would care to
Wait he was sure it would be back shortly. Since
The Nun was on the way to see a patient, she decided
Not to wait and walked back to her car.

After looking through her car for something to
Carry to the station to fill with gas, she spotted a
Bedpan she was taking to the patient. Always
Resourceful, she carried it to the station, filled
It with gasoline, and carried it back to her car.

As she was pouring the gas into the tank of her
Car, two men watched her from across the street.
One of them turned to the other and said: "I know
That it is said that Jesus turned water into wine,
But if that car starts, I'm going to church every
Sunday for the rest of my life."

until next time - smile
