Apr 12, Dog Attacks Woman With A Jogging Stroller

Thu, 12 Apr 2012 18:55:41 GMT

Ursula Sandau was walking her dog with her 3-year-old daughter strapped in her jogging stroller when a neighborhood dog, Ace, attacked Sandau. Ace is a German Shephard mix. Sandau got the worst of it and she was extremely lucky the stroller had turned over with the back of the stroller facing the attacking dog. After attacking Sandau the German Shepard mix went after her dog. Somehow Sandau made it to safety but it is not mentioned in the story how she got away. Thankfully, her 3-year-old daughter was unharmed. Tips For Safety:

Carry a Sabrered Jogger Pepper Spray with Hand Strap for your protection and that of your child or pet. Dog fights are ugly and difficult to stop without getting hurt. Adding a child in the mix is a recipe for disaster. Keep pepper spray within your immediate reach for an instant response to protect yourself from dogs or other attackers.
Jog in numbers. A friend or family member can help you and your child get away from being injured. They could be a possible distraction or over power the animal giving you time to escape to safety.
Let family and friends know where you will be jogging and whether there are any problems with stray neighborhood dogs.
Always scan the area you are approaching as you approach for quick exits particularly if you see a dog off leash or someone acting suspicious.
File a report with the police if you are attacked so you can protect others in your neighborhood from being mauled.

Apr 11, Increase Treadmill Incline and Shape Your Booty

Wed, 11 Apr 2012 02:53:26 GMT

Treadmill running is great to do if you cannot get outside to run. You have lots of programs to choose from, but even if you do not wish to do any of those, simply increase your treadmill incline. Jogging at an increased incline not only burns more calories, but it helps shape and firm your lower body. Yes, that is right! You can get a tighter butt and firmer hamstrings when you up the incline percentage on your treadmill. Interval training is great for this reason as it not only builds endurance and stamina but it gets that shapely bottom we all would like to have for the summer. You can do the same thing jogging or walking quickly up hills outdoors if you want a break from the treadmill. Either way, you are sure to get a nicely shaped lower body for your efforts. Of course, be sure you are up for the challenge and slow down or stop if you experience any pain or discomfort.

Apr 10, Kettlebells Build Muscular Endurance

Tue, 10 Apr 2012 18:18:05 GMT

Kettlebells are a resistance training tool used largely by Russian athletes but they have become increasingly popular in the U.S. Kettlebells offer terrific strength training benefits such as helping lower blood glucose levels in diabetic patients. A kettlebell will help switch up your routine if you are bored with your present strength training program. They work a little differently than dumbbells due to their weight distribution. Kettlebell weight is distributed at the front of the hand unlike dumbbells which is distributed evenly on the sides of the hand. The kettlebell will further challenge your muscles because of the way they are held. There are kettlebell exercises such as The Swing, The Clean, The Bent Over Row and The Preparation for Turkish Get-up. These exercises will improve your muscle strength by challenging them to perform differently. Be sure to rest at least 48 hours between kettlebell workouts to allow your muscles sufficient recovery time.

Fri, 06 Apr 2012 18:22:29 GMT

Choose a hip or pocket pedometer--the hip one is less expensive--and start tracking your steps as you lose weight toward your summer bikini body!

Apr 5, Can Jogging Strollers Make You Smarter?

Thu, 05 Apr 2012 19:19:52 GMT

They can, really. A lot of parents experience a drop in IQ when their children are small because of all the demands that new parents face. It may seem silly, but with sleep deprivation most of us cannot seem to remember things the way we could before baby arrived. All parents go through this so not to worry if you feel you may be the only one. Exercise helps get more oxygen to our brains so we can be more alert and think better. By jogging with your little one (when they are of the appropriate age and can hold their head up) you will get more oxygen to your brain helping you think and feel better. There are lots of benefits to jogging and jogging strollers and you can now add improving brain function (after baby arrives) to the list!

Mar 27, Jogging With Sneakers Still Better

Tue, 27 Mar 2012 18:29:50 GMT

While you may love to jog without shoes, researchers have found your running shoes help you run more efficiently than barefoot running. Barefoot running is more natural for some folks with the supposed benefit of maintaining the health of the bones, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments of the feet. Running with your shoes protects your feet from stepping on something that could hurt you. Of course, with barefoot running you may improve the planta fascia muscles and experience less problems with shin splints. Unfortunately, barefoot runners experience problems with their Achilles tendon. Running with or without shoes is really up to you and your biomechanics. With shoes on you will land on the heel of your foot, while barefoot runners land on the front of the foot. Simply choose what works best for you and go with it!
