Weight loss advice sells. Fitness advice sells quicker if it makes a promise; like thin thighs in 14 days. Just like we collect exercise equipment that we don’t use, we collect magazines, and books with the hope of discovering the “magic�. While surfing the net the links that invite us to check our next big thing in weight loss lure us in. Salivating and twitching we click on looking for the cure.Don’t feel rained on, I’m checking out the same things you are, but for a slightly different reason. I want to save you time, money and frustration. Once in a blue moon there is some validity to the claims. There are lots of legitimate programs out there, it’s a matter of finding one that fits you.

First for Women now on newsstands boasts a bold headline that reads “Drop 10lbs in 3 days�. Who wouldn’t want to read that? I sure did, and I read it in line. The wonder weight loss secret was an increase of fruits which have a low energy density. Maybe so, maybe not.

If it happens to be Hollywood’s latest diet, the nation is all over it. The kicker is that we know a lot of “celebrities look a hot mess when they’re not glammed up, air-brushed and wearing a full arsenal of spanks and other body suits.

In research what’s hot and what’s not I did find a great new exercise gadget. Like most of them you do have to use it to get the advantages. It’s called the Val Slide® . This workout reminds me of the slide workout we used to do back in the day. Instead of a 6ft slide you have to oval shaped discs that are used under one or both feet. They can also be used on carpet, and hard surfaced floors. As the name implies, you’re sliding and it really targets the lower body. You will also discover muscles you never knew you had. Place under the hands you can also assume the push up or plank position and intensify your upper body workout as well.

With so many new products on the market it’s helpful to know what to spend your bucks on. What’s also important is that you use what you buy. I don’t care how much of a bargain it might be, if you’re not using it, its money wasted. Look for more product reviews, I don’t mind testing a few of them for you. For those of you who train with me in real time on a regular basis, lookout! You’ll soon be sliding away!.

I bought them at Target for $24.99 (plus tax). Here’s the link to check them on the net. www.valslide.com
