Fitness
Ever since I was a little kid I’ve fantasized about getting in shape. Usually it involves some sort of long vacation or absence from my friends and family over which I work my gangly arms into thick man branches. When I return everybody is blown away by incredible transformation and visibly frightened by my awesome hulk.
Alas, I’ve never had the discipline necessary to stick to a strength program. Many times I’ve worked out a complete month only to gradually quit. A gym membership would be helpful, but I know it doesn’t even need to be overly rigorous; a daily habit of push-ups and sit-ups would go a long long way.
ABC-of-fitness.com is a free website with lots of cool animated tutorials on the proper way to do simple exercises like push-ups and sit-ups. The little flash animation of the man doing a push-up makes it look so easy! His tousled orange hair and muscle shirt are really inspiring.
