As we roast in the heat during this unusually hot and dry summer, we're all doing our best to stay cool- like blasting the AC in our cars on the way home after work, and keeping the shades drawn during the day to prevent our homes and offices from becoming a sauna.

Staying active in the summer. Seams like it would be pretty easy doesn't it? Normally we're posting about staying active during the winter months, when freezing temps and treacherous road conditions give us all the excuse we need for a day on the couch. Summer can be tricky though. Movie releases and mid-day cat naps are just waiting to pounce on anyone bored enough to give them a second ...

From the minute we step outside in the sun as as child, it gets imbedded in our mind that sunscreen is important.

Winter is now officially over, although many of you have probably felt that way for some time now. Undoubtedly this winter will go down in the books as one of the strangest, warmest, and least snowy in history. We’ve past the point of hoping for late season snow, and cities all over the U.S. are hitting 70 and 80 degrees.All is not lost, however, as the end of one season brings the beginnings of ...

At this point in the season, it's not important whether or not you've made it up to go skiing yet (if you're hesitant in these types of conditions, it's 100% okay to stay at home instead of going).
