POPSRipt: Man-girdle t-shirt for the soft-&-jiggly crowd You're a soft, sedentary, non-active guy. You drive a desk, ride home in a personal automobile, and play videogames depicting strong active men running around with guns & knives. You've got a sugar-cola in your glass, fried crap on your plate, and 873 hours of entertainment waiting on your TiVo in front of your big-screen TV. You've also got a spare tire that came off a tractor trailer and a back that spasms in pain if you try to lift anything heavier than a jumbo box of cookies. What you need is a man-girdle t-shirt.

POPSScientists find something good about a big bottom Researchers have known for some time that fat that collects in the abdomen -- known as visceral fat -- can raise a person's risk of diabetes and heart disease, while people with pear-shaped bodies, with fat deposits in the buttocks and hips, are less prone to these disorders

POPSWhy Having Big Buttocks Is Good for Your Health Working on mice, the team transplanted fat from one location of the animals' body to the other. Subcutaneous fat removed to the abdomen triggered body weight and fat mass losses, and a decrease in blood sugar levels. The rodents also got more responsive to insulin, the hormone controlling the way in which the body metabolizes sugar. Insulin resistance triggers the type 2 diabetes. When visceral fat was placed to other body regions, it induced no effect.

What happens is that when the twin feti are in the womb, one gets absorbed by, or trapped inside, the other. This happens very early in pregnancy. One twins grows normally while the trapped lives on as a parasite, leaching off its sibling’s blood supply

POPSRebounders (I have just started using one of these and they are cool ) 1. Rebounding provides an increased G-force (gravitational load), which strengthens the musculoskeletal systems. 2. Rebounding protects the joints from the chronic fatigue and impact delivered by exercising on hard surfaces. 3. Rebounding helps manage body composition and improves muscle-to-fat ratio. 4. Rebounding aids lymphatic circulation by stimulating the millions of one-way valves in the lymphatic system. 5. Rebounding circulates more oxygen to the tissues. 6. Rebounding establishes a better equilibrium between the oxygen required by the tissues and the oxygen made available. 7. Rebounding increases capacity for respiration. 8. Rebounding tends to reduce the height to which the arterial pressures rise during exertion. 9. Rebounding lessens the time during which blood pressure remains abnormal after severe activity. 10. Rebounding assists in the rehabilitation of a heart problem. See full
