P.O.R.N. Diets

I am coining this term as I feel some of the diets out there are so radical they need to be discussed in one place.

We here from our favorite celebrities daily and some of us live for this. We follow them on Twitter, talk about them on Bebo and MySpace or e mail each other about them especially when a new diet is talked about.

There have been some over the top radical diets in the past like the 'Air diet', not a very popular one for obvious reasons unlike the 'Chocolate' diet. Then there is the more main stream 'Atkins' diet or 'The Dash Diet' or even 'The South Beach Diet'. All have there plus and minus points and their advocates and nay sayers as well.

The trick when it comes to diets if there is a trick in selecting one would be to thoroughly research the topic. The mere fact that there literally are thousands of diets commercially available shown on television, billboards or even your local Chemist shop.

Here will be many, many articles pertaining to the topic of P.O.R.N. Diets circulating our media and your opinion on them is most welcome. Maybe you have been on one and would like to praise it or maybe warn others away from it. Whatever you may like to share, diet related, please do.

iPod Video Revolutionizes Personal Training Industry in Bucks County

By Kareem F Samhouri, DPT, CSCS, HFI

The influx of technology, such as the iPhone and iPod Video, has redefined the ability to offer personal training online. Using digital video more easily, combined with the goals of improved health around the world, makes it almost a necessity for all personal trainers to start offering their workouts in this format.

Fitness professionals are now beginning to even create video presentations that can be watched on an iPod, in order to simulate a classroom learning environment while working out. This just goes to show the growth in examples of applications of the iPod since the birth of iPod music.

Using the iPod as a "virtual personal trainer" is easier than ever before. For example, you might receive a couple of workouts per week via email, which you can then download all of the exercises to your iPod, and take them with you to gym immediately. In the past, most personal training online was accomplished through in-home workouts or printed versions of e-books that were portable enough to bring to the gym. Through improved internet speeds, catering to faster downloads of video onto an iPod, it has become possible to have the advantage of using a personal trainer who can actually demonstrate exercise while you are in the gym.

Most fitness professionals would agree that choosing a personal trainer is a careful decision that requires thought and analysis of skill set. With the opportunity today to be trained by some of the best fitness professionals in the whole world through cutting-edge technology, there is no longer a reason to settle. After all, this is your body, and you only get one.

Exercise videos allow visual demonstration of difficult positions and movements with exercise, while also allowing a fitness instructor to explain target areas and bad habits of others. Through the implementation of iPod workouts in the fitness field, it has become important to recognize previously imposed technological limitations no longer exist.
