Supplements
Nutritional Insurance
I am a firm believer we should t the majority of our nutrients from the foods we eat. Having said that, despite our best efforts there will be gaps in our daily intake. Of the numerous products available, I believe this product represents the best value. The also have a variety of formulas for kids, 55+ and other needs.
Immuni
Immune Support
The only other supplement I take on a daily basis is Vitamin D. Unless you live somewhere that at least 25 percent of your body is exposed to the sun on a regular basis, I encourage you to look into taking supplemental D.

POWER BLOCKS
Dumbbells are a very versatile exercise tool, especially the PowerBlock. This pair provides a range of 5 - 50 pounds per hand and are expandable.
RESISTANCE BANDS
TheraBands serve a number of purposes both as part of a warm-up and cool-down. They are particularly helpful during active isolated stretching, allowing you to gain some leverage to contract and then relax during your stretch. The Power Guidance bands provide greater resistance and may be used during your resistance training sessions.
MEDICINE BALLS
Medicine balls are another way to add resistance and variety to your activity program. Dynamax medicine balls are an industry leader and built to last. Many of the exercises that involve the use of medicine balls are quicker movements, and therefore should be on the lighter side to be effective. If you are fairly small in stature and new to resistance training start with a 4 pound ball. If you are larger and/or stronger you can progressively go heavier.
