Summertime, and the Losin' is Easy . . .

Summer is right around the corner. Those of us with kids are inundated with kids camp activities, sports programs and family vacations. The hot weather will force us to the beach and inevitably into the water.

Recreational activity is one of the best ways to get active and being with family and friends adds to the fun

New Stuff is invigorating
Try a new sport. If you usually bike, try hiking. The Santa Monica mountains are a perfect place to hike. Wear comfortable shoes with a good tread, bring lots of water and snacks. The steeper mountains will offer an anarobic (strength training) and aerobic benefit.
