Be Healthier: Nutrition Mythbusting

May 4th, 2009 by Jinny in Jinny, Red Tag Crazy, exercise, fitness, health, red tag crazy blog

Nutrition is a whole topic that is much to large to write about in one blog.
I am going to take it in increments. It’s like saying, ‘Ok guys I’m going to
tell you all about Sociology in one blog’.

Today’s post is going to be on myth busting regarding nutrition and
exercise.

Fitness Review #1: The Malibu Pilates Chair

April 29th, 2009 by Jinny in Jinny, Red Tag Crazy, Reviews, exercise, fitness, red tag crazy blog

I’m not one to really use that much equipment during workouts. I have resistance bands, balance and medicine balls, but I feel that is all you really need for a good workout, unless you are a body builder of course. Recently the boom with fitness tools has really increased, from the electronic ab workout belt to the thigh blaster, there seems to be a never ending list of things to make workouts easier and provide a “quick fix” to problem areas.

Eating Disorder Awareness: Anorexia Athletica

April 26th, 2009 by Jinny in Jinny, exercise, fitness, health

So I’m a bit late on Eating Disorder Awareness Week, but what the hey. I believe awareness is the first step in preventing many diseases. I have worked in eating disorder clinics and can tell you that there are many more diseases than Anorexia and Bulimia. Many people don’t know about many of them such as, EDNOS, COE, Anorexia Athletica, SED-NOS, PICA, night eating, BDD, Orthorexia, and Bigorexia, are just a few that are starting to be recognized as diagnosable eating disorders. In this post I’d like to discuss proper cardio and exercise in moderation.

All About: Diets, Diets, Diets!

April 23rd, 2009 by Jinny in Diets, Jinny, Red Tag Crazy, exercise, health, red tag crazy blog

Okay, I believe this is a very important topic to cover since there are so many diets out there and people seem to be so utterly concerned about dieting. In today’s post I plan on going over some of the most popular fad diets, why they are bound to fail, why they are unhealthy, and what the best “diet” really is. I hate the word diet. It is too often associated with weight loss. First of all a diet can be to gain, lose or maintain weight. A person’s diet is what they eat on a daily basis. Newborns’ diets consist of milk. I just want to make sure that when I say ‘diet’ you don’t think ‘cutting calories’ or ‘lose weight’ or ‘weight watchers!’. I mean diet in it’s original form: habitual nourishment. Eat healthy for life not just a few months. The ultimate goal here is to change ones lifestyle in a beneficial way to promote health and longevity.
