The Migas Project, Diagnostic Session #1 Dan
If you missed the post we did for Holly's diagnostic routine click here. Just like I mentioned in regards to that post, I was so thankful that Dan was so eager to get started and it was obvious he was willing to do what was necessary to be successful. I was excited to work with Dan since I knew he had some injury issues which we had discussed.
Another Shocking Discovery of Science
I want you to be sure you are prepared for this one. It has been awhile since I have seen something this pertinent come through the medical research community. Duane, one of our readers and Loren both caught this one for me. This one comes to us from Yahoo news about a research team of Health Experts in London who came to this incredibly bold conclusion.

How Much Exercise do We Really Need?
Our latest Poll was asking how often you exercise with the overwhelming response (60% compared to 10% for the next most popular) being 1-2 Hours a day 3-5 days a week. SO this means the majority worked out somewhere between 3 and 10 hours a week. For many years we have heard various "experts" tell us how much exercise our bodies "need". I have heard the common responses of 3 days a week for 60 minutes. More aggressive estimates are along the lines of 6 days a week for 45-75 minutes. So what is the actual amount of exercise we need to get during the course of a week?

I worked in the Gym industry for about 7 years. During that time I was amazed at how many people would flood into the gyms each year about this time to go purchase their gym memberships. The assumption was that if they had their membership to the gym they would of course go use it and therefore be in better health. The members who have had a membership for years and were constantly using the gym would go crazy. The "New Years Rush" meant long lines at equipment, trouble finding a parking spot, and an aerobics class packed with people.

Does Exercise Really Help You Sleep?
One of our readers, Duane, sent in this great article from the New York Times regarding activity and our sleep patterns. This is a topic that everyone always assumed to be the case. I am one of those who realize that the harder my body works during the day, the quicker I will fall asleep and the better sleep I will get.
Muscle Memory, Fact or Fiction?
I spoke with a client the other day who had started running again for the first time in a long time. She used to run quite a bit in the past but has not done any now in over 4 years. She tried to go for a few runs this past week and said that it seemed as though she had never run before. She was frustrated, not that she could not run for long distances but that she felt like she had no ability to run with any kind of a stride that resembled what she used to have.
