- Marriage 101: Never Ever Fight
Disagreements can sometimes be healthy in a relationship if done once in a while. Never allow fighting to eat away your relationship. In fighting, both parties lose the fight. No one ever wins.
- Whatever Happened to Good Sports?
Good sportsmanship sometimes seems to belong to another era – a quaint relic in today’s professional sports culture.
- Athletes: You Are Not Your Own
You are not in training, or competing, just to please your ego. It’s not just for some purpose; it’s for a corporate mission-others are in it with you. The “others” besides you are your master-father-trainer, his “sons” in training, the trainer who “fathered” your “father,” and your future “sons” who will be training under you. All of you are keeping up to maintain excellence and a reputation.

- Empowering The Mind To Command Will
A key to commanding your emotions is to empower the mind so it can control the will. Empowering the mind does not mean taking up more college courses or a master’s degree. Even some PhD’s and masters are emotionally willed rather than intellectually. They easily succumb to the “desires of the flesh” without thinking over their consequences.
- Talk Back
Biofeedback is a form of alternative medicine that offers you an internal glimpse inside your body as you respond to external stressors-a view that may help to improve your overall state of wellbeing. Migraines, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Irritable Bowel Syndrome are just a few of the areas in which biofeedback has proven beneficial.

[ Note: This article was written by fitness and nutrition author Jon Benson. I have his permission to share it with you. ]
A few years ago I released a book whose title was more reminiscent of a line out of “There’s Something About Mary” than a serious work on fitness. “7 Minute Muscle” — yep, it’s getting more and more difficult to distinguish fact from parody.

- Weightlifting for Adolescents – Guidelines for Lifting Safe
Adolescents often become interested in bodybuilding because they want to be better received at school. The skinny guys all want to develop bulk while the overweight guys want to exchange their fat for muscle.
