I have obtained this list directly from the playlist of the mp3 player of a fitness expert - MY WIFE! - Even I listen to this mix from my musicmatch while I am on the Exercise Bike in the mornings .. and there’s not even one B-52’s song on the list!
You see .. my wife just upgraded her 500MB mp3 player to a 2GIG mp3 player and we were looking for some fun and fast-paced workout songs to add to our playlist. We asked a few friends, we searched the internet, and we reviewed my vast 3500+ mp3 library on my computer. Here is what we came up with!

Most upper body exercises have as their goal to build strength. In order to maximize the beneficial effect of the routine, you’ll want to mix in some good cardiovascular workouts - spinning, jogging, etc - and alternate the activities with lower body work.
Before starting any routine, be sure to spend at least 10 minutes warming up, including good stretching exercises. Warm, loose muscles are much less likely to tear themselves or attached tendons. Also, you’ll want to get the circulatory system activated and muscle temperature increased for good blood flow.

Days Twenty-four to Thirty, still trying to lose weight (Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thur)
Sorry for delays … I am quite busy at the month-end time, and mid-month (for my offline work) and I accidentally uploaded my pictures to my laptop and deleted the pictures from my camera .. On my laptop, I deleted the pictures again, because I thought they were still in the camera. I assure everybody that I am still following my “diet” (at least counting the points), despite the slow posting in here and lack of pictures

Few commercialized areas of science are so filled with myths as that focused on weight loss. Everyone wants a simple, safe, no-willpower solution. Someday, we may actually get one. For now there are no magic cures. But there are quite a few myths that need to be exploded.

Days Twenty-One to Twenty Three, still trying to lose weight (Tues, Wed, Thur)
Yes: I’m still counting! (even though I haven’t been posting in this blog)
For the ease of speeding up the blogging of my daily meals .. I will now post several days at a time to catch up on things. This will become more evident over the next few months as I become increasingly more busy during my day job (income tax preparation, etc) and especially so around the 20th and around the last week of each month
