I was a Secretary at that time. I type all day long, and also I typed on a typewriter. Some of you may of heard of those things but never seen one. Back then they did not have all the wrist supporter things they have now. My wrist hung down, and was in a bent position, while my fingers stretch upward. Therefore my wrist started bothering me real bad, started swelling.

Many people think that they know the benefits of running. And of course the benefits vary from person to person. For a bank robber the benefits are reasonably clear – the need to be faster than the policemen! For the rest of us, the benefits may be a bit less obvious!

Long, long ago, in about the year 300, in a galaxy far, far away, an Indian Hindu named Patanjali developed a practice meant to stretch human muscles, strengthen human bodies, and increase human concentration.

This is the crux of flat abs really. You see, the reason people don’t have flat abs is because of the stored body fat that sits over their stomachs.

Unfortunately for us, it’s impossible to reduce fat in specific areas - your body will burn the fat evenly all over.

If you’re planning on engaging in postural muscle strength activities in an effort to improve your posture, you should probably understand what you’re trying to achieve. If all it took to improve your posture was exercise, why do so many people at the gym have bad posture?

I know, I know, not everyone at the gym is in good shape. Still, check out the people that are of average height and weight with average muscle tone. Shouldn’t they have decent posture?
