Going on a diet, without a consistent exercise program, is not likely to result in long term weight loss success either. That&#039;s the conclusion of an Australian review, published in The Cochrane Library journal, of 43 weight-loss studies dating back to 1985.



&quot;You really need to combine exercise with better nutrition,&quot; review lead author Dr Kelly Shaw, a public health doctor with the department of health and human services in Tasmania, said in a prepared statement.

&quot;There are so many myths and misperceptions about the exercise part of the weight loss equation. The biggest one being that you have to go to a gym, lift weights and do all the machines to fulfill the exercise part of weight loss. Well, this scares a lot of people way from pursuing a well rounded fitness program,&quot; says Exercise Physiologist, Joey Atlas. &quot;You don&#039;t have to go to a gym to workout. A few <a href="http://www.butthipandthighmakeover.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="best butt exercises, butt exercise">butt exercises</a>, a simple ab workout and some key stretches can be the foundation of an effective home workout program for weight reduction.&quot;

Atlas offers these five calorie burning, metabolism boosting, home exercise tips:

- <a href="http://www.butthipandthighmakeover.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="thigh exercises, thighs exercise">Thigh exercises</a>, such as the basic squat, build general lower body strength.
- <a href="http://www.absofstonecoreofsteel.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="ab workouts, abdominal exercises, abs exercise">Abdominal exercises</a>, such as the cross leg crunch, are great for the abs.

- <a href="http://www.optimumflexibility.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="stretches, flexibility, stretching">Stretching exercises</a> for the legs and back improve flexibility and help prevent injuries.

&quot;For most weight loss seekers, twenty five minutes of the right exercises combined with a nutritionally sound diet plan, can work miracles,&quot; says Atlas, whose home fitness videos have sold in over 60 countries to date. &quot;There is no need to spend two hours in the gym, six days a week, but this is what the general public believes. The truth is everything can be done at home. The best home gym is a floor mat and an exercise ball.&quot;

&quot;You can&#039;t just go on a diet. You have to change how you think to adopt a new, but simple, lifestyle. Start by getting clearance from your doctor and let gradual progression be your guide as you follow your weight loss fitness program,&quot; advises Atlas.

In November of 2004 CBS News featured a story on 60 minutes about the hoodia gordonii plant and the possibility of it being the cure for obesity. This news piece and several others are being deceptively incorporated into the marketing schemes of various hoodia products.



&#8220;I watched the hoodia segment that 60 minutes did back in 2004 and I&#8217;m sitting there shaking my head, knowing that this might be the foundation of the biggest diet pill hoax in history. I watched it with all of my guards up, but boy was it convincing if you weren&#8217;t thinking below the surface. It sparked something big because hoodia is one of the most searched <a href="http://www.thefitnessshaman.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="diet">diet</a> and weight loss terms on the internet. The number of websites hawking it and the number of hoodia products out there are endless. But, the country is still getting fatter. <a href="http://www.thefitnessshaman.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="fitness program">Fitness</a> will never be a pill that you swallow, its directy related to how you choose to live in this world&#8221; states Exercise Physiologist, Joey Atlas.

Hoodia gordonii is a cactus plant in the aloe family. It grows naturally in the Kalahari Desert of Southern Africa. It is claimed that the Kalahari tribesmen would bring the hoodia cactus on long trips through the desert to suppress their appetite in order to get by with very little food and water. Pharmaceutical giant, Pfizer, once held the exclusive rights to develop the hoodia plant into a weight loss product but dropped the project at some point for unspecified reasons.

Unilever, producer of Slimfast diet products, currently holds the rights to hoodia through an agreement with UK based Phytopharm. Industry news indicates Unilever plans to roll out a new Slimfast weight loss product line which includes hoodia.

&#8220;The Story of the Kalahari Bushmen and hoodia is what will make Unilever a lot of money, not the weight loss results of people who buy hoodia products. <a href="http://www.thefitnessshaman.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="fitness">Fitness</a> and smart nutrition will never come in a bottle. Unfortunately there are a bunch of loopholes that allow the public to be fooled.&#8221; states Atlas. &#8220;It&#8217;s a fundamental law of the universe. We were not given life to sit on our rear ends, eat twice as many calories as we need and then fix everything with a cactus plant.&#8221;

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Ponte Vedra Beach, FL (PRWEB) October 4, 2006 -- Chronic lower back stiffness and pain. It&#8217;s a condition that affects millions of people, from sedentary couch potatoes to elite athletes. The National Center for Health Statistics reports that 14% of new patient visits to physician offices (approximately 13 million annually) are for complaints of low back pain. In fact, an estimated 18% of the population has debilitating back pain at any given time. Lack of proper <a href="http://www.OptimumFlexibility.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="stretches and stretching exercises">stretching for flexibility</a> is a key contributor to this widespread health care issue, according to Exercise Physiologist, Joey Atlas.

&#8220;When you factor in the number of people that don&#8217;t bother to go to the doctor, the number is probably double and quite possibly higher.&#8221; claims fitness expert, Joey Atlas.

Avoidance of <a href="http://www.OptimumFlexibility.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="stretching exercise">stretching exercises</a>, lack of knowledge regarding specific stretches and limited flexibility are three causes of the lower back pain epidemic. The biggest complaint from many sufferers is the challenge of waking up to morning stiffness and backache on a daily basis, with some days being worse than others depending on previous day&#8217;s activities and overnight sleeping position.

&#8220;<a href="http://www.OptimumFlexibility.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="flexibility">Flexibility</a> is the most underestimated and misunderstood element of health and fitness. The right stretches, done three times per week would literally wipe out the vast majority of lower back aches. It&#8217;s no surprise that so many people are clueless about this, most personal trainers don&#8217;t even know.&#8221; said Joey Atlas. &#8220;You don&#8217;t have to become a yoga nut or a Pilates addict. You can do your stretching while watching TV.&#8221;

Atlas offers these five principles for getting and staying flexible:

1) Ease into a stretching program whether you&#8217;ve been exercising regularly or not.
2) Stay consistent. Three to five stretching exercise sessions per week is ideal.
3) If you feel pain, stop! Slight discomfort is fine, but pain is not. Don&#8217;t do a stretch if it hurts.
4) The best stretching exercises do not require expensive equipment or elaborate devices. You can increase your flexibility with stretches that can be done on a mat with the assistance of a towel.
5) If you don&#8217;t know what to do, hire a fitness professional who is trained in flexibility conditioning, or invest in a few good stretching exercise videos.

Joey Atlas holds a Masters Degree in Exercise Physiology. He is the creator of &#8216;Optimum Flexibility&#8217;. This 2 DVD flexibility program is the result of Joey&#8217;s personal chronic back pain solution combined with stretching exercises he incorporates into each of his clients&#8217; fitness training programs. It is available via his website for $24.97 USD.

                        <itunes:summary><![CDATA[Ponte Vedra Beach, FL (PRWEB) October 4, 2006 -- Chronic lower back stiffness and pain. It&#8217;s a condition that affects millions of people, from sedentary couch potatoes to elite athletes. The National Center for Health Statistics reports that 14% of new patient visits to physician offices (approximately 13 million annually) are for complaints of low back pain. In fact, an estimated 18% of the population has debilitating back pain at any given time. Lack of proper <a href="http://www.OptimumFlexibility.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="stretches and stretching exercises">stretching for flexibility</a> is a key contributor to this widespread health care issue, according to Exercise Physiologist, Joey Atlas.

&#8220;When you factor in the number of people that don&#8217;t bother to go to the doctor, the number is probably double and quite possibly higher.&#8221; claims fitness expert, Joey Atlas.

Avoidance of <a href="http://www.OptimumFlexibility.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="stretching exercise">stretching exercises</a>, lack of knowledge regarding specific stretches and limited flexibility are three causes of the lower back pain epidemic. The biggest complaint from many sufferers is the challenge of waking up to morning stiffness and backache on a daily basis, with some days being worse than others depending on previous day&#8217;s activities and overnight sleeping position.

&#8220;<a href="http://www.OptimumFlexibility.com" onclick="linkClick( this.href );"  target="_blank" title="flexibility">Flexibility</a> is the most underestimated and misunderstood element of health and fitness. The right stretches, done three times per week would literally wipe out the vast majority of lower back aches. It&#8217;s no surprise that so many people are clueless about this, most personal trainers don&#8217;t even know.&#8221; said Joey Atlas. &#8220;You don&#8217;t have to become a yoga nut or a Pilates addict. You can do your stretching while watching TV.&#8221;

Atlas offers these five principles for getting and staying flexible:

1) Ease into a stretching program whether you&#8217;ve been exercising regularly or not.
2) Stay consistent. Three to five stretching exercise sessions per week is ideal.
3) If you feel pain, stop! Slight discomfort is fine, but pain is not. Don&#8217;t do a stretch if it hurts.
4) The best stretching exercises do not require expensive equipment or elaborate devices. You can increase your flexibility with stretches that can be done on a mat with the assistance of a towel.
5) If you don&#8217;t know what to do, hire a fitness professional who is trained in flexibility conditioning, or invest in a few good stretching exercise videos.
