Whether it's a one-day hike or a multi-day hike, hiking requires strength and stamina. Hiking to distant places like a hike to Gross Morne mountains, with a heavy backpack. So, if you plan to go on a hike in a week or in a couple of weeks, you should start training right now.

Stop Pursuing Six-pack Abs. You Don’t Need it.
Lately, the abdominal muscles have wrongfully become the barometer of someone’s fitness success. This is especially true in the age of the internet when fitness has become popular on social media platforms (mainly on YouTube and Instagram), where everyone seems to have rock-hard abs. The abdominal muscles, scientifically known as “rectus abdominis”, that are supposed to support our body, have another function now: flaunting your fitness status.

5 Simple Steps to Follow to Improve Your Overall Health
This list is just a little reminder of the points you need to prioritize when you want to live a healthy and fulfilling life. Way too often, I see many people trying to overcomplicate their health and fitness journey, and what happens is that their approach becomes so convoluted that they get into a state where they don't know what they are doing because they are switching up the plan way too often.

A lady and her better half-stop eating so much junk food together. Could it be said that they are both roused? Indeed. Do they each reliably count calories? Indeed. By and by, the man is bound to shed undesirable pounds before in this cycle than his better half.

One Step at a Time
10,000 steps a day; it’s been my goal for over five years using Garmin. But long before that, I was already making huge numbers of steps in a day - they just weren’t recorded. I would wake up in the middle of the night to pace growing up, as it was the only time I really had to myself. I wrote all about that here. I never grew out of it, though now I am able to freely walk about the house at any hour.

Traveling the World Without Leaving My Basement
Last week I completed my 12th tour of different parts of Egypt. I have walked approximately 14 miles through the desert. I have toured Giza, including the Great Pyramid and the Great Sphinx. I have walked to the Bent Pyramid of Dahshur, and the Pyramid of Sakkara. I have walked through Luxor, Egypt, visiting the Karnak Temple, the Colossi of Memnon, the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, and have gone inside the Tomb of King Tut. I have walked the streets of Cairo, visiting the Al Moaz Street Bazaar and Tahrir Square. I have loved every minute of these tours, thanks to my tour guide - the entertaining, informative, highly educated Egyptian Egyptologist, archeologist, and Emmy award-winning documentary filmmaker, Ramy Romany. It did not hurt that he allowed his sense of humor to occasionally intersperse his serious explanations. He REALLY hates camels. I am laughing as I write this, recalling how he kept his distance from one of the huge beasts while giving me facts about their legendary spitting, mean tempers, and foul odors.
