A GOOD START

Live better, feel better, be your best self.

Personal trainer, group fitness, and senior fitness specialist.

a) Inactivity

b) Obesity

According to current research, a sedentary lifestyle (lack of physical activity) is considered more dangerous than being obese, as studies have shown that inactivity can be linked to a higher risk of mortality compared to excess weight alone.

If you’re not sure where to start, I recommend walking. Guaranteed, if you walk for exercise, you’ll feel the benefits. Here are some things to expect when you start walking for just 30 minutes, most days of the week:

1. Good Mood: Modifying nervous system, so much that many experience a decrease in anger and hostility.

2. Increased Blood Flow: Preventing heart disease and other chronic conditions

3. Cognitive Health: Slowing the rate of decline of mental sharpness.

4. Weight Loss: Increasing metabolism and burning calories.

5. Lower Cholesterol Levels: Walking requires nothing but a pair of sneakers and some extra layers as the weather gets chillier... and it’s like that proverbial apple: There’s a good chance it’ll keep the doctor away.

BE SAFE THIS CHANUKAH.

• Choose a menorah that is sturdy and made of non-combustible materials.

• Clear the surface that you will be placing the menorah on and the surrounding fall area from all flammable materials like paper and plastic items.

• When displaying your menorah, make sure it is 3 feet away from combustible materials on all sides particularly from window shades and curtains.

• If you go out, blow it out

• Keep kids and pets away from a lit menorah, create a kid and pet free zone around your menorah.

• Never leave lit candles unattended, especially while sleeping

IMPORTANT SAFETY MESSAGE FROM SOUTHFIELD FIRE: Make sure you have working smoke alarms on each level of your home and in all sleeping rooms. Also, ensure that you have working carbon monoxide alarms on all levels of your home.

Winter Preparedness Tips

Make sure that your car is ready to take on the snow, ice, and cold

Tires Check the tire pressure and wear on your current tires, and your spare Bald tires are dangerous in slippery conditions.

Battery Batteries die more frequently in the winter. Older batteries are particularly susceptible. Be proactive, get your battery tested for free at local O'Reilly, AutoZone, and many tire stores.

Antifreeze Antifreeze, also known as coolant, is essential for your engine in the winter. It works to keep it from freezing. Always make sure that your coolant levels are full. Be careful to never open the coolant cap until the engine has cooled from running.

Windshield Wipers In the winter your wipers need to be in tip-top shape in order to keep your windshield free of snow, ice, and other dirt that gets kicked up from the road. AutoZone and O’Reilly Auto Parts will install wipers for free, even in the cold.

Washer fluid Always keep wiper fluid topped off. Salt and sand from the roads can get kicked up onto your windshield making it hard to see. We recommend keeping an extra bottle of fluid in your car.

Lights Make sure that all of your exterior lights are properly functioning. Remember to clear snow and ice off of your lights before hitting the road.

Gasoline level Try to keep your tank at least half full. This helps keep accumulated water from freezing inside of your fuel pump and also allows you to keep your car on and the heat running if you get stuck. Defroster and Heat Make sure to check that both of these systems are properly working in your vehicle before weather conditions make them a necessity. Did you know that your AC system is used in the winter to remove moisture and fog from the windshield?

Winter Supplies Make sure that you have in your vehicle: Scraper/Brush, Flashlight, Water bottle and a few nonperishable snacks, Cell phone charger, Gloves, and a Blanket.
