Exercise: Abs
Knees
Knees can give you all kinds of problems, from ACL injuries to arthritis to chondromalacia and more. Help prevent knee and ligament problems by having yourself diagnosed for overpronation and getting into the right shoes or orthotics to correct it. Also - get new shoes every 500 miles - old shoes lose their cushioning and gait correction and can lead to injury

Leave Your Fork at Home
A study in the August 2000 issue of the International Journal of Obesity found that, all other factors being equal, men who had eaten a meal away from home in the past 24 hours were heavier than those who ate at home. For women, they were more likely to be heavier if they ate fast food in the past 23 hours but not if they ate at a regular restaurant. Lesson? Fast food portions and suggested meal combos have far more fat and calories than you need. If you must eat away from home, carefully watch your choices.
