I would like to send out a  huge thanks the audience,  you :) Your encouraging feedback and support keeps  this show going.  The raving iTunes reviews help heaps too ;)
Thanks to the TPN gang for providing the medium to host and deliver the podcasts.

Vienna, my old co host, is living at the Gold Coast now and doing really well for herself, I am hoping one day in the near future she can co host the show again too. Thanks V for all the fun times we had creating the shows.
A big thanks goes out to all the guests I have had on the show.  We have covered topics from Krav Maga to Kettle Bell Training with professionals in the fields.

Looking forward to many more years of podcasting on The Health and Fitness Show.

It’s so easy that no one ever has to teach you how to do it. It’s so easy, in fact, that we often pair it with other easy activities—talking, chewing gum—and suggest that if you can’t do both simultaneously, you’re some sort of insensate clod. So you probably think you’ve got this walking thing pretty much nailed. As you stroll around the city, worrying about the economy, or the environment, or your next month’s rent, you might assume that the one thing you don’t need to worry about is the way in which you’re strolling around the city.”

Although there is no sign of the extra sensors mentioned in the patent, or its extra activities such as weight-lifting, the new Nike+ system should at least replicate the running support of Nike+iPod, and its corresponding website tracking and competition.”

“Snorkeling is a wonderful activity that can be enjoyed by almost anyone who has access to the ocean, a lake, river, pond or quarry.  Snorkeling as an activity frequently lives in the shadows of scuba diving - another excellent pastime, but one that requires significantly more instruction, time and money. Most people who have snorkeled have done so only on group charters while on vacation, but snorkeling is an activity that can be done almost anytime, anywhere.”

I hadn’t been climbing for a while, so I really did miss how intense the workout was.

It was great to see parents taking their kids there. Climbing teaches them confidence, inner strength and great for self esteem.
I climbed at http://www.hardrock.com.au/ in the CBD.  Really well designed place.

What I like about rock climbing is that it engages all muscles and helps you work them out using full range of motion.  It is very challenging.

Hardrock CBD Venue

http://www.hardrock.com.au/

So you want to try Rock Climbing? What to expect and require:
You will be inducted before your first attempt… this is a really important step.  The instructor will go through the belaying process and safety procedures.  Many places have inductors onsite, so you don’t have to book, but I would call ahead just to be sure.

You will need a climbing partner.  It is good to have one person that you can completely rely on to be your climbing partner.

Where to aquire all the equipment required:
I strongly recommend not to buy the harness, carabeena, chalk bag, etc until  you have tried climbing at least twice and have really enjoyed it.  These are not cheap items but if you plan to go climbing often, it is better that you purchase.

I keep a “climbing bag”, which has all my equipment ready to go for climbing… makes life really simple and you never have to worry about forgetting anything… just add water (a bottle of water, that is :)).  I also have a swimming bag, snorkeling bag, and gym bag - easy to get ready, don’t have to worry about a checklist.
Can climbing be done instead of training at the gym?
It is funny but  the climbing centres are usually referred to as gyms :)  Climbing is the equivalent of an awesome  resistance workout, with a little cardio.  So you will still need a bit of extra cardio in your training regime and if you add stretching at the end of a climb you are completely covered!

Happy climbing :)

Many of us take our health for granted. It is not until we have taken the opportunity to cleanse our bodies that we truly realise that we can always improve our health and reduce the risks of disease and accumulation of toxicity in our bodies. Toxicity is the underlying root of many diseases and illnesses.

The Lemon Detox Diet is an all natural cleansing program designed to help with eliminating built up toxins in the body, and purifying the body. Every once in a while, every machine needs an overhaul, every system needs a cleaning, every worker needs a break. Our bodies are no different. The Lemon Detox Diet invigorates the body’s own ability to cleanse itself of accumulated toxins and helps normalise weight while we take a break from solid foods. The very purpose of food is to strengthen the body and maintain health, yet many of us have turned eating into a deadly act of weakening our bodies and destroying our health.”
