How to Avoid "Death by Couch"

Practical, no nonsense strategies to help you put zing in your exercise regimen.

  • Did you make a New Year's resolution to exercise?
  • Have you already fallen off the wagon?
  • Are you tired of feeling bad about yourself for being less of an athelte than you'd like to be?

Let's talk! What's the good stuff that comes from regular exercise? Is it really worth the effort? How do "other people" figure out how to fit in exercise in an already "too much demand" on any given mere 24-hour day? What if I fall off the wagon? How do it get back on and stay on?

 
 

Do you have to be Crazy to Walk a Marathon?

  • What does it really take to train properly so you can enjoy a marathon walk?
  • Do you have the time? The inclination? The will to sustain the effort?
  • By the way, . . . how far is a marathon, anyway?

Learn:

  • What is involved in training, a step-by-step approach.
  • Strategies to sustain the effort over time, especially through the long summer months.

Thousands of walkers have trained successfully with Coach Ellie. Find out what marathon walking is all about.

Includes a checklist to help you make an informed decision and a marathon training schedule.

 
 

Exercise is for Skinny People, Right?

If you're not "naturally thin" it's hard to find a place for yourself in today's exercise world.

  • Do you think that only "naturally skinny people" and those with "skinny genes" can be successful exercisers?
  • Are you tired of having your doctor tell you you're "too heavy"?
  • Do you find the thought of yet another diet depressing?

Discouraged? . . Feeling hopeless? . . . Think there's really no place to turn if you're truly overweight and out of shape?

Let's talk! There are no quick fixes and no easy answers, but there IS hope!

Learn what you can do if you are truly motivated, but feeling as if there's no place to turn for real help, compassionate advice, or honest peer support.
