Way to go Marlo!
Passing the Torch… Who’s Going to Run With It? By MARLO THOMAS It’s hard to believe now, but it wasn’t that long ago in this country when, if you stood in a hospital hallway and looked through the glass window of the nursery, you could point to all the babies wrapped in pink and know exactly what they’d be doing in 20 years. The babies swaddled in blue? Who knew? They had so many choices and adventures in front of them. Scientist? Salesman? Soldier? But for the girl babies, the choices were prescribed: wife, mother, maybe a teacher. And the expectations for girls were low. I still remember struggling with math when I was in grade school and being told by a nun, “Don’t worry, you won’t need it.” You’re reading this on the new Women’s Page official launch day on Huffington Post, so it seems like a good time to take stock of how far women have come in this world. From my vantage point, I can’t think of a more exciting time to be a woman: We’ve finally reached our era of great expectations. click here to read the rest
Key 3: A 3-Step Exercise Program
For those of you with very little time, I have included a short, three-step exercise program called Key 3 (see Figures), developed by Dr. Michael Hewitt, who, is the research directory for exercise science at Canyon Ranch Health Resort. These three exercises, done with handheld dumbbells_wall squats, chest presses, and the single-arm row_will challenge 80 to 85 percent of the body’s muscle mass. Dr. Hewitt says that once you get the hang of it, you can complete two sets of the Key 3 exercise in about ten minutes. When it’s this quick and easy, is there any reason not to just do it? Chest Presses: Lie on your back, knees bent. Hold your dumbbells with elbows bent out to the sides, shoulder height, and bring them together up above your chest. Standing Squats Against a Wall: Feet hip distance apart, hold your dumbbells with arms hanging straight at your sides and squat until your hips are level with your knees_not below your knees! Your feed must be far enough out from the wall that when you squat, your knees are not farther forward than your toes. Place one knee and one hand on a chair or bench. Bend the standing leg. Hold the weight in your other arm and let it hang straight down. Then bring your elbow up close to your side and control it down. Keep your back flat. Think of sawing a big log as you bring your elbow up and down. Keep your elbow close to your body. Exhale as you lift. Inhale as you lower. (illustrations by Karen Wylie)
