Your Questions About Wii Fitness

Lizzie asks…

Looking to get one of the wii fitness games?

are they good? which one should I get? I know theres one with Juliana ultimate fitness theres the wii fit and I think one more.

WriterMan answers:

Yes they are good. I would suggest Wii Fit Plus it is the latest version of the Wii Fit. I think it is brilliant. There are so many different activities and they are so complex. You can do Yoga, Muscle Workouts, Balance Game and a lot more. Plus with the latest game there is this feature called My Wii Fit Plus where you select what part of your body you want to improve and it will give you a few activities that are suggested for whatever part of your body.

Michael asks…

Is Wii Fitness safe to play while pregnant?

We have just found out that we are pregnant again (one ectopic, one miscarriage), this will hopefully be our first child. However, I am a high risk pregnancy, and am nervous about exercise. So, I was wondering if anyone knew much about Wii Fitness, and if it is safe as a means of exercise during pregnancy. Any thoughts? Thanks!

WriterMan answers:

I have a wii fit and I know what all the games on it are. Any of the workouts that have you on your back I would not do or the push ups. And of the balance games I would say would be great they are not stressful. The step games I would try but you should know if it's too much and just slow down if your baby is destine to be here it will I agree you should take some preparation however don't give up on everything it will make labor harder.

Susan asks…

WriterMan answers:

The Wii Fitness is a game that you can play on the Wii and the Wii is the actual console you'll need to play Wii Fitness

Donna asks…

Mandy asks…

What are the best/most fun Wii fitness games?

I want to buy someone a fitness/exercising game for the Wii console.
Which ones are good, and fun also? (and which are the ones to avoid)
Many thanks,

WriterMan answers:

I would definitely say Wii fit plus, not only has it got all the things from Wii fit on it but it has got some really funny games on it, especially the one where you have to flap your arms like a bird and the obstacle course one.
All the games on there are fun but also very good exercise.
There are lots of games out there that are purely based on exercise so Wii fit plus in my opinion has both good fun and keeps you fit.

Your Questions About Cardinal Health

Michael asks…

Resume Question.....really wierd, please help?

On your resume, you state who you worked for and where

Im having a hard time trying to figure out how to put this one position my resume

I got placed by a staffing firm (Adecco) which is based in CT to work on a project for a company called Cardinal Health, which provides all the equipment used in hospitals.

But...I didn't work at the Cardinal Health premises. We worked at a hospital called Westchester Hospital where we unloaded the Cardinal Health products and tested them etc.

So anyway, on my resume...do I state I worked at Addecco, Cardinal Health, or Westchester hospital? How is this usually stated on a resume when you worked for a staffing firm?

WriterMan answers:

You would put that u worked for Cardinal Health... Since it was them that payed you... It doesnt matter if they sent u to iraq... They were the ones that payed u to do so.. So put them as ur employer...

Mark asks…

Who is going to journey on to Florence through the Tuscan countryside ?

We would stay at Bagni di Pisa (health giving waters are still offered to an international clientele) and visit Pisa during one of the city’s festivals, staying at Lungo river Arno palace to enjoy the best view of the festivities http://www.provincia.pisa.it/pisalive/it/Pisalive/pisalive.html

Do you know a Villa which has hosted many illustrious guests such as Gustavus III of Sweden, Christian II of Denmark, the Royal Family of Great Britain, Benedict Stuart Cardinal of York, General Murat, Luigi Buonaparte, Paolina Borghese, Carlo Alberto of Savoy, the poets Byron and Shelley, and various other personages from the history books ?

Carol asks…

The seven cardinal sins; are they friends or enemis of self; or mere emotions which drive the mind of self.?

WE HAVE TO LIVE AND DIE WITH THE SEVEN CARDINAL SINS NO MATTER WHAT.

Every person, place, or thing, with whom / with which we deal and interact with; is in-fact a solidified, working and performing image of the seven sins; which attract us towards them with the powers and abilities of SINS only.in them selves for their own purposes itself; but to which we get attracted for our own purposes

We although engage ourselves with them and through them in sinfull activities; for the purpose of seeking and gaining the joys, pleasures and happiness of self from them; orTHAT from them; from which we could get the joys, pleasures, and happiness of self; for the reasons of helping ourselves with; but they have their own sinfull purposes..

How can we ensure that we not only know, fight and conquer the enemies ( seven sins) but also win them over; and realise the true wealth of pure joy, satisfaction and happiness of self; for both; from such persons, places and things; so that the seven sins do not become the causes of any / all of the following; atleast for the self.

loss of strength and wisdom of self; evils of birth, death, old age and illnessess of the mind, body, heart, and intellect of self; lack or loss of opportunities for self; unnecessary physical and mental hard work and labour and industry of self lacking in direction and focus; meaning less struggles; hard ships, sufferings and sorrows of the mind of self; lack of proper education, knowledge, health, wealth, and wisdom of the mind of self for self; fear, lies, poverty, sicknesses, diseases, violence, crime, etc.

The seven cardinal sins are;

PRIDE ; excessive belief in abilities of self alone; instead of those of the grace of god as well; which interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God.

ENVY; desire of the self; for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.

ANGER; manifestation in the self of the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. It is also known as Wrath.

SLOTH avoidance of the self; of physical or spiritual work.

GREED; desire of the self; for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Avarice or Covetousness.

GLUTTONY; inordinate desire of the self; to consume more than that which one requires.

LUST; inordinate craving of the self; for the pleasures of the body only.

ALL THIS FINALLY RAISE THE QUESTION THAT ARE THE SEVEN CARDINAL SINS OUR TRUE FREINDS AND TRUE ENEMIES ALSO; FOR FROM THEM ONLY; WE GET THE JOY, LOVE, HAPPINESS AND SATISFACTION OF SELF TOGETHER WITH ACTIONS OF SINS,

IF THIS IS SO HOW CAN WE SAVE AND SAFE GAURD OUR SELVES; TO ENSURE THAT WE ALSO DO NOT ENTRAP OUR SELVES IN THE MIND SET OF THE SEVEN SINS; I.E.
A) excessive belief in abilities of self alone;
B) desire of the self; for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.
C) manifestation in the self of the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury.
D) avoidance of the self; of physical or spiritual work.
E) desire of the self; for material wealth or gain,
F) ignoring the realm of the spiritual.
G) inordinate desire of the self to consume more than that which one requires.
H) inordinate craving of the self; for the pleasures of the body only.

How important it is for us to know and recoganise the traits of sin in others ; to fight them; to conquer them; to win them over; and to realise from them the true wealth of the spirits of joy, love, satisfaction and happiness of self..

How do we do it

WriterMan answers:

What the hell is your question? The potential for those sins is inside everyone of us. We aren't MADE of sin though. You just have to....not do them. How you do it is up to you.

WriterMan answers:

.When Rome converted to Catholicism,so too did her Empire.The Pope was head of the church.He (Pope) appointed Cardinals as his head of state in all the countries.These cardinals were in fact princes of the church.Very powerful.Often the ruler would'nt act,without the support of his state cardinal.They were princes,lived lavishly and in palaces

Betty asks…

Do you think Oprah Winfrey's purchase of Discovery Health network will be an inprovement in programming, Why

OK -- It's a cash-free deal. Discovery gets control of Winfrey's website, and Winfrey if named chair of Discovery Health. However, she will have great influence over the programs. So, are you happy with "Runway Moms" and "I Lost It!" all day, or do you think she will do better?

WriterMan answers:

I am so HORRIFIED about this! I watch the Discovery Health Channel all the time for their gross surgeries and weird illnesses and all that stuff. I HATE Oprah and I would never watch her show or any of those stupid "living well" quacks that she likes. I'm worried that I wont get to see some of my favorite type of shows anymore such as, "When Surgical Tools Get Left Behind" or "I Woke Up In The Morgue" or "The Woman Who Was Pregnant for 40 Years".

Maria asks…

Discovery health/Oprah network?

So Oprah has her new network now and I was wondering if they moved the other shows like trauma life in the ER or Dr. G medical examiner to another channel? If so does anybody know what channel it is I have dish network as a cable provider. I really like discovery health and would be sad if they no longer showed these shows. Thanks
Thanks you two for your answers.
Everyone had good answers thanks again. I'm putting this into voting.

WriterMan answers:

Hi, Mary with Dish Network Customer Service, Discovery Health is no longer a channel, as of today. It has become OWN (Oprah Winfrey Network). I searched our programming guides for these shows but they are not listed on another channel at this time. Discovery MAY choose to change this in the future. At this time, we have no additional information to share with you! I hope this answered your question.

William asks…

Discovery Health becoming The Opera Winfrey Network?

I found out that Discovery Health is going to become The Opera Winfrey Network.

Do you know what day the change is going to take effect?
What do you think of this? I hope that The Opera Winfrey Network will still have some of Discovery Health's shows.

WriterMan answers:

February 2010 (exact date of the changeover hasn't been announced yet).

Oprah Winfrey and Discovery Communications announced this last year (in a stock-swap deal giving her control of the long-failing Discovery Health and them 50% ownership of the oprah.com website). She had owned Oxygen but quietly sold it off to NBC Universal two years ago.

Donald asks…

Discovery Health switching to Oprah Network...Is anyone else as pissed off as I am?

I mean...Her show was bad enough. But that's just what I think. Mabye its because That's my FAVORITE channel that shes replacing. I don't care if people yell at me..its all right I'm just kinda pissed off that she had to take that channel.

BTW--This article is pretty good about it.
http://www.mamapop.com/2010/12/oprah-winfrey-network-will-replace-discovery-health-channel.html

WriterMan answers:

I'm MAD PISSED that this woman who needs to be worshiped like she's God is taking over the DHC...I'm a nurse, I love medicine and learninf about new medical type things. Myster Dx, Mystery ER, Dr. G, Trauma in the ER...I LOVED those shows. DHC was like the ONLY channel I watched continuesly because everything else on TV is just trash. So now this broad has taken over the last channel on TV that educates people....I'm tottally upset, I cried once 1/1/11 hit because I knew DHC was over, taken over by a woman who wants more power, more fame. I am so upset about this.

Ruth asks…

What do you think of the Oprah Winfrey Network?

They've gotten rid of a lot excellent shows. Shows like The Untold Stories of the ER, Dr. G Medical Examiner. It's all Oprah's programming now. :-( The only thing she didn't get rid of was Mystery Diagnosis. R.I.P Discovery Health Network.

WriterMan answers:

I agree. A great network died today. Why couldn't she take over one of the 500 shopping channels instead?

Your Questions About Curves Fitness

Mary asks…

Has anyone out there used a Curves Fitness Center?

Thinking of joining. What were your likes and dislikes and was the routine really beneficial to you?

WriterMan answers:

I liked it somewhat, however none of the people who work at a Curves are personal trainers, so can only rotely assist you (meaning they have no trained or personal knowledge, only what the company tells them to do) with your own personal physical needs, if any. I found the same routine and music gets old, too. Also, compared to some other, larger places, the monthly fees are quite high.

Robert asks…

Do you have a member ship to Curves Fitness and what do you think of the exercises and the weight loss?

and how much have you lost? Looking into joining need opinions from people who have used them....

WriterMan answers:

Been going to curves for a year now lost 40 pds and 38 inches love the place everyone is supportive and friendly. I would recommend this program to anyone.

David asks…

Will going to Curves Fitness Center help me get rid of cellulite?

WriterMan answers:

Cellulite is fat in the skin, not the kind of at that lies far below the skin that our body prefers to burn while exercising. There are many different (and disputed) methods of reducing the *appearance* of cellulite -- but, in general, exercise is not the way.

Since cellulite is mainly a hereditary feature, at least we have someone else to blame! :o )

Maria asks…

Question about curves fitness centre?

I'm 16 and I would like to join curves. I used to have a membership at the Y but it's quite a distance from school while curves is just around the corner. From what I've read I don't see anything about just being able to use the equipment and make your own routine up, do you have to follow their circuit training thing or what? Can somone explain to me how this works..? And is this an environment for a 16 yr old or is it all middle-aged women?

WriterMan answers:

I went to curves when I was 14 and 15, but I started to hate it after a while. They have the machines in a circle and you have to do the circuit. I found a lot of people were older but a few were younger, although I was the only teen.
I'd personally just go to the closest gym where you can do what you want and make your own routines xo

Betty asks…

does curves fitness require a 3-year contract like bally fitness does?

im looking for a place to workout down in florida but everyone seems to require contracts if not very high membership prices. Any input is appreciated.

WriterMan answers:

I know that curves where I live offers 30 day trials. I would never join a place offering a 3 year contract. What if they go bust. Then you are out the money. If you are the customer, you are in charge. Tell them what you want and try and work out something you are agreeable to.
Good Luck.

Your Questions About Health Insurance

Mark asks…

What is the difference between Health Insurance and Health care Program?

Is it OK to have just the health care program and not have the Health Insurance Plan? I can get Health care program for half the monthly premium as compared to the Health Insurance Plan. Please advise? Is it advisable?

WriterMan answers:

Health insurance is the one that pays for your medical expenses should you incur one. While health care program is designed for the continuity better living despite health disability.. Long Term Health Care Program is best be planned ahead.

If you find it suitable for you, then it's fine. Otherwise, seek for a medical/legal health expert for a better advise.

Betty asks…

If someone has two health insurance coverage, how does coordination of benefits work?

My friend was in an auto accident, and the health insurance from the auto insurer is her primary health insurance for the accident. She also has regular health insurance from another company. If the auto insurer pays 80% of her auto accident medical costs, and her secondary insurance normally pays 70% of her medical costs, then how would the secondary insurance treat a $1000 bill, for example? The auto insurer pays $800 of the $1000 bill (80%), but how much would the secondary health insurer pay?
SRC50
Auto insurance covers medical costs from an accident when auto insurance is selected as the primary health insurance for an accident. She therefore has two health insurance coverages in terms of her auto injuries only.

WriterMan answers:

Health Ins will always pay their allowed amount they have for that service after deductables and copays are met. Your secondary ins works the same way.but should pick up the remainder of the bill if your ded and copay are met with them. Always look at the allowed amount for that service if the Physician is not in their network then it was your choice not to go to a provider in the insurance network and therefore the provider can collect from you the uncovered amount if they informed you that they were not a provider for that insurance company prior to your appointment. What ever their car insrance worked out with your company with your consent is how the bill should be paid.

Richard asks…

How does health insurance work - when insurance premium can generally increase?

If family of two have health insurance, and one of them decide to use it for couple medical procedures will insurance policy premium go up?

Please advice.

Thanks.

WriterMan answers:

No. The premiums will not go up for that. Usually health insurance is up for renewal once a year and the cost increases at that time, but not just because you use your policy. The cost of group health insurance where I work has had double digit increases in the premiums every year for 10 years now. The health insurance companies are out of control.

If you have insurance and need health care - go get the care you need. Check out this site, if you want to find the cheapest health insurance just in one minute,

Thomas asks…

I have private health insurance and insurance from work?

I have private health insurance from blue cross blue shield, I also get blue cross blue-shield from the work I do for the state. If I was to use the insurance from my work would it be a conflict with the insurance I privately have? I was told that they would cancel each other out and I would lose my private insurance. Is this true??? I don't really want to lose my private insurance for health and security reasons but I also don't want to keep paying more if i don't have to in the long run.

WriterMan answers:

In most cases, you are paying too much for your coverage. You generally are best off just getting the bcbs plan from your employer. However, they can work together in some instances. If one is used as primary and then the other can pick up the co-pays at the doctor's office and other things. I know one person who has a situation like this. However, this person has coverage from their own employer and their spouse's employer. Their plan pays as primary, the other picks up everything except the annual deductible. Since the plans are written differently from each other, if they used the spouse's plan as primary, then their own plan would pick up nothing as secondary. Since both plans are through the employers and that person has a lot of medical expenses, it saves money to have both plans on that one person. Since the spouse has few medical expenses, they only have one plan on that spouse. In most cases, your private medical insurance is going to cost you more to carry than the out-of-pocket maximum on the plan with the employer. In most cases, you would do well to carry only one plan.

Steven asks…

What affordable health insurance would you recommend for my uninsured 21 year old daughter?

She works full time but her employer charges an outrageous amount of money for health insurance. I know there are many many young people who don't have health insurance, mostly because of the cost of high insurance premiums. But my daughter really needs it cause she has some health issues that will stay with her for a lifetime.
thanks everyone!

Joseph asks…

I want a girl who has tattoos, is outgoing, pretty, and has a mind of her own...any takers?

I'm sick of these "opinion-less" girls who agree with everything I say. I want a challenge. I want a girl who has her OWN style. One that can make up her mind that she wants something, then goes and gets it. Is that too much too ask for?

WriterMan answers:

Haha we just keep answering each other's questions..
Anyways..
I have one tattoo.. With at least two more on the way.. But being a poor college student i currently lack the time and money to get them.. Lol..
I'm opinionated as hell.. And extremely stubborn.. So i don't agree with everyone..
I know what i want.. And as i mentioned i'm in college to get it..
I guess i have my own style.. Seeing as i just don't care haha..
So hey it exists.. Granted i think i'm beyond a challenge as i'm a pretty difficult person.. But that's just me..
You'll eventually find what your looking for.. You just have to stop looking.. That's usually when things you want show up..
Best of luck..

David asks…

Any girls have a BF in a band? advice?

so i've been with my bf for 2 1/2 years.
he's been with his band for 1 1/2 years.
they are doing really well. a lot of people come to his shows now and he has 1-3 gigs every weekend. it's so hard to deal with all the pretty girls hanging on him, kissing him on the cheek, taking pics with him and him giving out his number to give them info about other shows. it's hard to keep up with all the partying too, but i hate missing a show b/c i'm scared girls will act worse if his gf's not around. he tells me all the time he never sleeps with anyone and he has to flirt to get people to his shows. also he's so much more into his appearance, like he's always wants more tattoos and to change his hair and is even wearing eyeliner now. i'm starting to feel insecure and unimportant. i've thought about leaving him b/c i feel like i can't handle this lifestyle sometimes, but it hurts to much b/c i do love him. advice on how to cope with this band life? i trust him, and believe he's not sleeping around. opinions? thank you..
BTW all of his bandmates cheat on their gf's when they don't come to shows =/

WriterMan answers:

I just broke up with my bf who is in a band! And im not trying to make u feel uneasy, but that played a major factor in our breakup. It seemed he loved the band more than me, and I felt like I was fading from his life. He was acting overly flirtatious towards other girls, and getting all defensive when i called him out on it. Also i would get death stares from other girls all the time. Girls who didnt even know me talked trash about me just because they were jealous that i had him. This behaviour went on for months, and finally, just recently i got fed up with it and we broke it off. But we werent dating that long, only for a half a year. I know our situations are different, but they are slightly similar. Go with ur instincts. If you feel he is not treating you the way a girlfriend should be treated, talk to him about it. If he is a jerk after you call him out on it, dump him. Guys in bands usually dont lead healthy relationships, unfortunately. I hope it works out for you guys though!

Chris asks…

So what did you think of the girls on "Real Chance at Love: Back in the Saddle" particularily "Ribbons"?

Here's the cast if you can't remember whose who yet like me!

http://www.vh1.com/shows/real_chance_of_love/season_2/cast.jhtml

I think there are some really pretty girls this time and a few seem genuinely nice but a lot of them seem super shallow. I was SO GLAD that "Freckles" got the ax. I don't like girls who try to make themselves feel better by cutting down on others, you know? I also didn't like all her tattoos. They were just a bit much. She was just a bit much, lol. I was even HAPPIER to see "Vegas" leave though! Chance was right. She was super immature. She was also a major instigator. She would not stop making fun of the girls. She really was something else and totally lacking in the looks department. I can't blame "Show Me" for attacking her. However, "Show Me" needed to go home. She just had so much anger and she looked like an oompa loompa with that awful fake tan. I was surprised they kept "Wiggles" because she's ugly and very fidgety. I'm sure she'll be eliminated in the next episode.

I also did NOT Like Baker and P.S. who is just too butch looking. She doesn't look like either of the guy's "type" at all. I think Pochantas is really pretty but I don't believe she's 29. So many women over 30 say they are 29. I'm 36 and she looks older than me. "Doll" is SO GORGEOUS! I think she'll be there a long time. Plus, she seems really sweet. I also liked "Aloha", "Hot Wings", and "Mamacita".

I can't wait till next week's episode! I love "Real" and "Chance". I think "Chance" is better looking but I'm not crazy about his personality. He can be kinda mean like when he was picking on poor "Wiggles". I like "Real". He's got a good personality but his hair looks weird. ANYWAYS! This show is sooo much better than "Megan Wants a Millionaire"~
Oh yeah, "Ribbons" was sooo weird! What was that girl on??? They should have kept her on a few more episodes for our amusement.
Too the person who said that I wasted my time watching this show, you are entitled to your opinion but why even answer? That just doesn't make sense.

WriterMan answers:

I didn't see the whole episode. BUT YEAH, I watched the part where Show Me, Vegas, and all the other girls involved in that arguement.

- Vegas was REALLY imature. How can she say "They're mistaking my sarcism to instigating" or somthin' like that? She was also a real poser too - every few seconds in that arguement, she would talk like she's ghetto and then go back to talking properly. I'm SO GLAD she went home. And is "It's not my fault you look like a man..." her only comeback ? OH PLEASE, I've heard her say that probably 5 times.

- Show Me, she was really pretty (no homo lol). And although I liked how tough she was, the courage she had, and BEATIN' Vegas' @$$... I think a person with a temper like that should go home instead of dealing with 13 (???) other girls. PLus, she accepted the fact that what she did was wrong while Vegas acted like she was innocent.

SO yeah, that was my opinion lol. Although I hate these reality shows, (because most couples in the end don't stay together and it can be fake sometimes), it's the drama that keeps me entertained lol.

Oh, and btw - I hope Megan's dog dies during the show lol. And I CRACKED UP when that wine spilled on that dress (KARMA much ?). I don't even believe all of the guys from there are millionaires.

Lisa asks…

GUYS with tattoos: Do you like it when girls have tattoos?

Notice this question is for guys WITH TATTOOS! so please don't come in here and say "tattoos are stupid!" or anything like that...
but i guess guys without tattoos can answer, as long as you don't diss people with tattoos.

girls with or without tattoos?
how many tattoos are too much?
or does it not matter at all?

and if you dont like girls with tattoos....
if she was nice, pretty, talented, etc...but she had tattoos...would it be a deal breaker?

I'm just curious...i have tattoos and will continue to keep getting them no matter who answers what on here....like i said, im just curious as to what others think...

WriterMan answers:

Yep, tattoos are sexy as f*ck. See Kat Von D.

How much is the membership fee at Anytime Fitness??

I prefer Anytime Fitness over the other gyms because this place is open 24/7 and I work weird hours and prefer to work out on my way home from work which is usually 1 am. Does anyone know the cost of this gym??? And anyone that has a membership there....what do you think of the gym? Thanks

WriterMan answers:

It depends on where your at. In the US is is about 29.00 a months and up for the fees. Most place will give you a free 7 day trial pass.

Jane asks…

Will this get me out of my Anytime Fitness membership?

I joined with Anytime Fitness May 5th of 2010. It's a great gym, loved the atmosphere, but their billing practices make me want to leave. I feel they have violated the contract, and need to know if I am right.

I signed up for a 12 month contract at the rate of $43.28/month. My account is in good standing - payments have never been late, etc.

In May, I was charged my $43.28 membership fee.

In June, I was charged the membership fee, plus an additional $49.28 on the same day.

In July, I was charged $62.78 - not once, but TWICE on the same day.

So my standard membership has cost me $43.28 in May, $92.56 in June, and a whopping $125.56 for July.

My contact states that they can add up to $10/month to my membership if I put a stop payment on my electronic funds transfer, or if I go to a "coupon book." I have not done either of these things.

Does anyone know anything about Anytime Fitness, or their financing company ABC Financial? I have contacted both institutions and have not received a response from either one, and I have gone to my branch, and have never been able to talk to the owner there.

I feel like the world's biggest sucker - and since I am being charged twice a month, and the charges keep increasing - I don't know when it will stop!

I need help - what do I do from here, how do I get my money back, and how do I leave this stupid company beind me??

WriterMan answers:

If the charges are a mistake, you can definitely get your money back. They aren't intentionally crooked, but they do occasionally make mistakes.

Dispute the charges with your bank, if ABC doesn't respond to the banks inquiry in a reasonable amount of time, you will get your money back.

Call ABC, their telephone customer service is pretty good. If you mention you want to cancel, they will likely tell you to call them gym. So just focus on the billing error and how you get your money back.

Also, write a letter to the owner explaining the billing error. Either mail it in or drop it off for him/her. This will make sure the owner gets the message and has enough information to fix it.

You can also call Anytime Fitness corporate and tell them what's going on.

On a side note, the monthly charge is set, but tanning can be per use if you didn't sign up for unlimited. Also, letting friends/people follow you through the member door without scanning in can result in additional charges.

Charlie asks…

How much is an Anytime Fitness Membership monthly?

Also how much is the fee for the key card? I would call and ask but the employees only work there for 3 hours and they aren't there now.

WriterMan answers:

I browsed their website and they didn't even show any prices or any details for anything you asked.

To be honest, you'd save so much more time and money if you just invested in dumbbells and did exercise routine at home. You can do everything at home that you can do at a gym. The only difference is, a gym has sweaty cushions for you to sit down and workout. Sitting down to work out. Ha.

Lifetime Fitness couple's membership without living together?

My G'f and I are looking into getting a membership at a local Lifetime Fitness. We already live together but not officially (meaning that our driver's licenses don't reflect it). Is it still possible to get a couple's rate?

WriterMan answers:

Yes, just get the new guy to run through the application. Most people that work there don't really care, as long as its male and female its not usually a problem.

Your Questions About Womens Health

John asks…

Mens health better than womens health questions?

Well in my eyes womens health is boring, all they talk about is periods and rubbish.
men talk about sex, and i love sex :D am i the only girl loool.

WriterMan answers:

Lol. It's because it's all we think about.

Carol asks…

Are there more men in the womens health section or women in the mens health section?

and why? Why do you think they would be there for? What would you say is the percentage and who is there more?

WriterMan answers:

I'm betting it is pretty equal.

The opposite gender probably visits the health section to find out what guys or girls are thinking. I mean wouldn't you be curious about what problems girls (if you are a guy) or guys (if you are a girl) have?

If I had to pick which one, I would say: Men in the Women's Health Section. I don't know, my theory is that girls already have a lot of health issues to worry about guys'. And yes there is the peverted factor as well.

Hope this helps!

Laura asks…

what is a good book with natural remedies for womens health?

i want to detox, cleanse, and get my uterus in shape. i dont have a period right now and im looking for natural fixes. what are some great books,websites, or google search keywords?

WriterMan answers:

The best way to detox and cleanse your system is with natural foods. Try a raw food diet for a week or two- (fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, fresh juices, filtered water) your body will cleanse itself and balance your hormones naturally. (My husband advises this diet for women trying to conceive- and it works the vast majority of the time.)

The two books I would highly recommend are:
Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom by Christiane Northrup
Prescription for Nutritional Healing by Balch & Balch

Donna asks…

Anytime Fitness Membership fees?

A new anytime fitness gym is opening in NJ and I was just wondering if anyone knows what an average monthly fee would be? and also, is there any money down for a new membership?
**I plan on signing up with my boyfriend so I am not sure if there is a specific 'couple' rate or anything like that?
Thank you!

WriterMan answers:

The clubs are all franchised and only the club itself can tell you the exact fees. Their website states "As each Anytime Fitness club is independently owned and operated, we encourage you to contact the club of your choice for specific pricing information. A visit to the club will help you learn even more." Here's the contact info for a club in NJ, as they will be able to tell you more...

I don't know if they're the same nationwide. I live in Olympia, WA and pay about $70 for me & my wife.

Lisa asks…

Is it better to sign up with YMCA or La Fitness for a gym membership?

YMCA says it's $31 a month and no joining fee during their promotion... LA Fitness said either pay $99 initiation fee and $29/month, or $0 initiation fee and $39 a month. You can quit La Fitness anytime but YMCA has a 1 year contract.

I'm not really sure which would be better. Both have pools, but I think Ymca's pool is better but probably has more kids there splashing around. I hear bad things about LA Fitness but its like 1 minute from my house. Any suggestions as to which one i should pick?

WriterMan answers:

You should go to both places, and get a feel for the environment and the people. You don't want to go to a gym full of a-holes, nor do you want to go to a gym with a bunch of socialites.
