1. Don’t stretch from cold We’ll start out with one that is fairly obvious. Under no circumstances should you stretch from cold. The best practice is to do some light exercise for around ten minutes before you actually engage in stretching. When you exercise, it increases circulation and literally warms up the muscles. The warmth allows muscles to be more elastic and makes you far less prone to injury. 2. Work to reduce preparation stretches Stretching is very important but overstretching can be just as harmful....

Yes, I know I just reviewed a John Maxwell book. No, I’m not working for his publicist. Remember when you were a kid and every time a new Piers Anthony book came out, you just had to read it? Even if the story line and characters weren’t all that great. Well, Maxwell’s books are becoming kind of like that for me. I may not always agree with what he has to say, for instance he thinks you should continue to give of your self and eventually your value will be recognized....
We all hate wars and any kinds of violent acts. We know they hurt the innocents and spilt our world. There is no doubt about it. But have you realized that biases and unnecessary labelling can spawn hatred and split our world as well? We fight against violence in the name of peace and protecting the innocents. Then what’s the point of treating the guiltless ones with injustice? Are we willing to see this invisible brutal act rampaging through America just because we feel insecure?...

I should know: As lovely and solid as my relationship with my adult daughter might be now, her tween and teen years were defined by blaming me for nearly everything that was amiss in her young life.

1. Go to the library It’s no secret that reading with your children is incredibly beneficial to their development. Even if the last time you set foot in a library was during your freshman year of college, when you become a parent you should make it a habit to visit your neighborhood library weekly. Spend some times in the kids’ section with your children browsing books you cherished when you were younger, and exploring new books they come across....
Injuries can be severe, lingering even after the players are done with professional sports Sports professionals have it made. High dollar salaries, popularity, and sometimes eternal fame in the hearts of their fans. The glory of sports has a price. Many are plagued by injury after professional sports.

Research background Dr Shütz and his team studied a group of 44 ultramarathon runners participating in the TransEurope-FootRace (TEFR), a 64-day race spanning 4487km (2788 miles) from southern Italy to the Northern Cape of Norway without a single day’s rest. This is like doing around 100 marathons in a row. They examined the effect of the extreme long distance running on the musculoskeletal system (that is the bones, joints, cartilage, muscles and tendons) but the study also revealed some interesting findings about the brain....
Your style can communicate who you are and what you stand for before you ever open your mouth.

We want to be successful, and we’ve been taught that we have to dress for success. Looking great doesn’t mean reinventing the wheel every day, though....
Now, I don’t mean things like your favorite dinner or the TV remote. I am talking about desires that we repress because of the fear of failure. Things you want so bad that you’d rather not try, than invite the vulnerability that comes with the possibility of failing. I think its a rather terrifying act to ask for something you want. The more deeply you desire it, the more daunting the endeavour becomes....

Look at both sides of the argument Before jumping into an argument, you should always try to see where your opponent is coming from. This isn’t to suggest that you do so to reach an agreement with your opponent; on the contrary, you want to know what he’s going to say so you are ready to refute it. Preemptively refuting the opposing side of an argument before it’s even been made is the key to writing a strong argumentative essay....

Be genuine, and be genuine with the right people, to lead a happy life. 2. “I shouldn’t ask because I won’t receive....
