Quick Posture Guide to Check Yourself Before You Wreck Yourself
Firstly, let’s start with the basics. Our bodies are designed to move. If you aren’t moving, then it is not going to perform as it should. When we sit for long periods of time, or stand still for too long, this can cause the body to seize up and create pain. You may have felt this feeling, maybe at work, watching your favourite sports team, or even when you wake up in the morning.

After Bariatric Surgery
I had bariatric surgery in November of 2017. On that day I weighed in at 387 pounds. My highest weight was well over 400 pounds and I stand five feet 11 inches tall. I didn't have any major medical issues besides having arthritis in my knees from playing several years of sports, with migraines from prior concussions. I didn't have diabetes, I didn't have high blood pressure, so I didn't have all of those typical "fat person" diseases. I don't mean to sound harsh when I use the term fat person, but it is still socially acceptable to berate someone for their size. So why shouldn't I be able to use a term that I was called quite frequently?

Body Issues
Being in my early 20s, I never thought about my weight. I never thought about having kids either. When I turned 21, I was pregnant with my first child and I had gained a little weight, but easily lost the excess gain through breast feeding. I was pregnant again a few years later and I gained 20 kilograms with that pregnancy. I assumed, the weight would "peel off" the same way my first one did—it didn't.

Finding Your SPF
As Spring seems to have sprung, we all know that Summer is not far behind; with Summer comes days at the beach, boating, barbecues, and lots of sunshine. It's, in one's own opinion, the best time of the year. But sadly, days in the sun means a higher risk of sunburns, and potential risks of skin cancer, and severe sun damage. Fortunately, most sunscreens on the market today are more than efficient; however, finding the right one for your skin type is vital to save time in the sun, and for your skin, including any medical conditions you may have.

Inclusion of Supplements for Body Building
Supplements can significantly help in your bid to build up muscle resulting in an increase in body size. And you need to supply your body with the best muscle growth supplement. Your diet is still the number one, though it doesn’t hurt to include a few of the right supplements as well. This would barely be a complete bulking book without only touching just on a few.

When Can You Come Back to the Gym After Labor?
Women are rarely satisfied with their physical shape after labor. There was hardly ever a novice mother that didn’t promise herself to get fit as soon as possible. However, not all of them keep their promise. Raising a child is not an easy thing to do, and it’s normal that you may not have the time and resources for the gym.

Do You Want to Feel a Little More Manly?
Guys want to be guys. The trouble is not every "dude" knows what it takes to become more manly. Websites popped up discovering the topic of embracing a more manly attitude. YouTube channels center on the subject of becoming an alpha male. The channels draw in thousands—if not millions—of views. And look at all the books covering the same topic. Some gurus even sell high-priced courses on the art of manliness!

Don't Rely on BMI
This is something I touched upon in an earlier article concerning weight loss, and is something I'm passionate about debunking when it comes to the pursuit of a healthy weight. BMI, or "Body Mass Index," is supposed to be a rough indicator of what your weight (or mass) should be in relation to your height. Categories include underweight, normal, overweight, obese, and extremely obese.

Emergency Gallbladder Surgery
The weather is changing and the winter germs start to come out of the woodwork. Illness at work was rife and it was inevitable that I was going to catch something. Little did I know that my constant sickness was not due to germ spreading!
