Don’t Overdo It: Know When To Say When with Exercise
One of the best things you can do for your body is exercise. But you want to make sure you don’t overdo it and find yourself sitting on the sidelines with an injury.
Exercising does so much good for your body and mind. It helps keep your weight down, boosts your heart health, reduces your risk for many chronic diseases and improves your mood. But as with many things in life, you can have too much of this good thing.

4-Park Itinerary for Universal Orlando Resort
Every time I go on a trip with someone or have a friend visit me for a few days, I create a shared note in my phone and list all the places we should visit, restaurants we should try, activities we should do, and sights we should see. At the bottom of each of these notes is a section I always title “Loose Schedule.” But today, I have a confession to make: there has never been anything loose about the schedule. It’s an itinerary in sheep’s clothing and I won’t be apologizing for that. (Yes, I’m a Virgo and eldest daughter, why do you ask?)
