Not everyone agrees with the notion of Daylight Savings Time, especially when we “lose an hour of sleep” after turning the clocks ahead each spring.
Yet we don’t really lose an hour, we gain an extra hour of daylight. You have 60 more minutes of after-work time before the sun sets, have some fun and make the most of it!
When summer fun is at its peak—trips to the pool or beach and enjoying our time outdoors—it’s a good time to restock your sports bags and outdoor gear for sun safety.
A bit of sunshine can be a very good thing, but over-exposure is a health and beauty risk. As we learn more ways to stay safe in the sun, we’re sharing some simple tips with you.
Spouses and family members who share common goals are a great influence on each other, and when parents lead healthier lifestyles, their kids are more likely to follow suit.
Since we often share the most time, meals and activities with our loved ones, it makes sense to work together and make better choices.
For many people, if you ask how they spend their spare time, they will offer answers like spending time with family, having social time with friends, or shopping.
While these activities may be healthy and add to happiness, they aren’t really ways to develop our unique personal interests or do activities we most enjoy. But hobbies are!
Maybe you’ve watched some of the weight loss and fitness makeover shows on TV, and wondered how much of the participants’ progress is actually achievable, for YOU.
We can’t speak for television’s biggest losers, but there are many success stories among our XSport Fitness members. Like our latest Get Fit Challenge Grand Prize winner, Troy!

It’s been thousands of years since the first mentions of meditation in China and India. More recently, the many benefits of mindfulness have been well researched in the west.
If you’ve dabbled in sitting quietly or calming your mind for stress release, that’s a good start, because even a small meditation practice may also help with health and weight loss.
