(Mar 24th 2011 12:50PM) Now that Spring has arrived -- at least in most areas of the country -- it\'s time to get working on outdoor exercise. Bicycling is one of the better cardiovascular workouts, so dig your bike out of the garage and get to pedaling. And, if you like to get out into the countryside, and little vehicular traffic, put ...

(Mar 8th 2011 11:35AM) If a jogging stroller is not your style, consider a bicycle trailer -- you have the advantage of taking your children with you while you ride your bike, and they get to enjoy the view. Lightweight, easy to operate (and store, in the off-season), bicycle trailers get you and your kids outdoors for fresh air. A ...

(Dec 14th 2010 11:01AM) Contrary to the ease with which familiar "it\'s like riding a bike!" colloquialism implies bike riding is, bike riding does not come naturally to us. Any parent knows that teaching your child to ride a bike can be a challenge. In recent years, many companies have come out with "balance bikes." These early bikes ...

(May 21st 2010 11:18AM) My ears perk up at the mention of anything health and fitness related. Recently, I have been hearing a lot of rumbling about the the bodybugg. It is basically a calorie counter on steroids. ...

(May 17th 2010 6:45PM) Share Did you know that May 17-21 is Bike To Work Week? I\'m sure that there will be a lot of participants this year.

(Mar 10th 2010 2:13PM) I owned a couple motorcycles some time back and I can remember that I always started getting antsy to ride at this time of the year. When the Spring temperatures began to increase, that meant new spark plugs, a good cleanup of the frame, and a close look at tires. I was always careful with my tires, given that ...

(Jan 7th 2010 10:30AM) I\'m back from vacay, and boy is my mouth tired! I\'m from southern Virginia and the routine back home is totally to eat, gossip, snore, eat, gossip, snore, eat, which I don\'t mind at all because it is so fun to take a break from hectic L.A. and just hang out with my mommy, my family, and my old friends! But alas, ...

(Oct 12th 2009 1:00PM) Seriously, if I had to work out with just one thing on my body, I might just choose BUFF headwear. OK, maybe I\'d pick a sports bra, but the BUFF would be a close second. It\'s the most versatile, sweat-wicking, not embarrassing-looking bandanna I\'ve ever used, and I\'ve tried them all. ...

(Aug 24th 2009 11:16AM) Going for a bike ride is great exercise, and fun when you can bring your child along for the ride. The traditional bike seat is mounted on the back of the bike, giving the child a great view of your back. The experience from the trailers that are towed from the bike are less than ideal for your child as well. A ...
