For many life situations, there often seems to be as many opinions as people giving advice! We are all products of our experiences.

Take any cross section of people, say 100, and ask their opinion on a particular fitness idea, and you will probably get 100 different opinions. This is the dilemma I see often with clients...

Literally. While other teens were learning how to drive, I was re-learning how to walk, how to talk, how...

Shamed into action you decide once again that another attempt to shed weight will be worthwhile.The good news is that you needn't do it on your own. A huge range of weight-loss programs exist today - from independent, locally run clubs to...
