risks (2)

If you wonder how to jog or run then watch this video presented by Dr. Andre Albrecht from Germany

Which is better for you, jogging or walking?

Nearly all studies show that jogging provides slightly more benefits for your bones, muscles, heart, and lungs. But walking has gained a lot of ground in the last decade or so as a viable exercise. It strengthens bones, tones muscles, and helps your cardiovascular system.

Walking is easier on the body's joints. It causes far fewer injuries to heels, shins, knees, and hips than jogging or stair climbing, according to the American College of Sports Medicine.

And virtually everybody can walk.

Moreover, walking is linked to better physical functioning, even among older people who already suffer from chronic disease, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American College of Sports Medicine. Both of these two groups call for getting at least 30 minutes of walking or a similar activity every day. This level of exercise burns at least 150 calories of energy.

For those of any age who can handle greater intensity and joint-pounding, however, jogging may be the way to go.

I like shoes, however, Christopher McDougall Talk from TED.com also has its values

From http://healthyliving.azcentral.com/jogging-night-2225.html "Because of certain physiological factors—including body temperature and the release of key energy-metabolizing hormones—some joggers may find they function better at night, according to Shawn D. Youngstedt, Ph.D., professor of exercise science at the University of South Carolina."

I'll keep sharing in the comments below!

I-20 each of us improve lives of 20 people

What if we can start I-20 in which each of us can try to improve the lives of 20 people who generally don't use the Internet and aren't as educated as us?

It's easier to write on the Internet and which we can keep doing because it's also of value, however, we must reach others also and that printing out valuable materials for them or even just speaking to them might make that crucial positive impact for advancing India and our world. Please do it if you like. It's not about what we'll get today but what our world would get till humanity would exist and I'm sure that if they'll improve then it should also help us during our lifetimes. Thank You and All the Best!

Bill Gates: And if I could wave a wand, I'd love to have a way to measure how exposure to risks like disease, infection, malnutrition and problem pregnancies impact children's potential—their ability to learn and contribute to society. Measuring that could help us quantify the broader impact of those risks and help us tackle them. Following the path of the steam engine long ago, thanks to measurement, progress isn't "doomed to be rare and erratic." We can, in fact, make it commonplace. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887323539804578261780648285770.html
