5 Myths About Partying Habits

1. Detoxing or “Pre-toxing” during the week cancels out the effects of partying on the weekend. 
False. “One drink a day can be good for you,” says Lisa R. Young, R.D., Ph.D., author of The Portion Teller. “But if you skip Wednesday and Thursday, that doesn’t mean you can have three drinks on Friday and toast to your health,” she says. “Your body (namely, your liver) can’t handle so much alcohol at once, even if you didn’t drink for a few days beforehand.” It’s better to drink moderately than to do restrict and binge pattern.

2. Alcohol Makes Sex Better. 
Wrong again. Alcohol can make people feel less uncomfortable in a social situation. But the reality is that alcohol can actually keep guys from getting or keeping an erection, and it can lower girls' sex drives, too. More importantly, alcohol can affect your decision-making ability: You might put yourself in a risky situation; you might think you're ready to have sex when you're not or you might forget to use a condom —

WHAT TO DO

Stand facing the mirror with a dumbbell in each hand. (If you don't have dumbbells you can use two cans, or milk jugs - whatever you can find that is heavy enough and acts like a weight).
While holding the weights, bring one hand forward and the other hand back like you are running but only move your arms.
In the mirror when you have one arm in front, it should appear in the mirror as though the weight is covering your nose.
Focus on keeping abs tight and think 'strong arms'
Do 15-20 Reps on each side. Try for 2-3 sets.

Is it Smart to get up EARLY

"It is well to be up before daybreak, for such habits contribute to health, wealth, and wisdom."- Aristotle
. In my own observations I have found there to be a correlation between productivity and rising early. The question I then wondered is if being a ‘morning person’ is innate? Or can anyone become one? After much research and experimentation I believe this is definitely something that can be learned. We are all creatures of habit and products of our culture and attitude. And I have to tell you, it’s hard to become an early riser with the wrong strategy, but with the right strategy, it’s relatively easy. Since I can’t seem to ignore this correlation between success and rising early I thought I would share some tips I have learned, in order to help make you an ‘early riser’ or at least make getting up early less painful.
