You’re probably dehydrated right now
I don’t drink enough water and more than likely you don’t either. In fact, recent studies have shown that 75% of the American population is dehydrated.
Whenever I have been dieting in the past, water consumption has seemed to play a huge role in it’s success or failure. Rather than reach for a snack I would [...]
Can I get a canburger with that shake?
A friend turned me on to this delicious invention. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. Are people actually eating these? What a sad sad world we live in. If you are going to eat a cheeseburger, you might as well make it worth your while and eat a hot one.
I suppose in their [...]
Is your morning coffee making you fat?
Probably not, but it certainly can kill your day if you are on a diet or trying to cut calories. A Venti Caramel Macchiato from Starbucks has 330 calories! I personally know people who have coffee drinks like this daily and I’m just as guilty as anyone. Luckily I stick to the black stuff more [...]
Do we really workout harder when our favorite song comes on?
I read an article in the New York Times about why working out to your favorite music helps you burn more calories. We here at Podfitness have known this for a while, in fact, it’s what we base our business model on.

Eat less and exercise more aka The boring diet that gets results
The New York Times had an interesting article about how we as a nation are inundated with diet fads, books and other worthless weight loss propaganda around this time of the year. And let’s face it, we all want to believe that the next flash in the pan weight loss solution is going to [...]

One drink is good for you, more than two is harmful. What gives?
We’ve all heard that a glass of wine or other light drink once a day is good for your heart. A recent report from CBS News states that more than one drink for women and more than two for men is harmful though. So where is the line?
Let’s break it down a bit [...]
Why is AmazonMP3 better than the iTunes store for Podfitness users?
Two words: unprotected music!
All of the songs on AmazonMP3 have no DRM or protection on built in. Which means that anything you purchase from AmazonMP3 will work with Podfitness and can still be loaded into your iTunes or Zune libraries.
This has been a big issue for many Podfitness users since protected music will not mix [...]
