Drupal Fit

The Washington Post has an animated infographic with exercises that can be done in the office. Each is rated by how difficult, sweaty, and humiliating/embarrassing it is. A lot of them seem to be dance moves from the 80s/90s.

Droplabs and Exaltation of Larks would like to invite the LA Drupal and Drupal Fit communities to a Red Cross First Aid, CPR & AED certification training on October 15, 2011. This full day of training offers the following 2-year certifications: First Aid, Infant CPR, Child CPR, Adult CPR and Adult AED.

You can make a difference during the critical time between when 911 is called and the ambulance arrives. This professional training uses a combination of books, videos and hands-on exercises that will give you the knowledge and confidence you'll need in emergency situations.

Sign up today. You won't regret it and you might even save someone's life.

I'm in a great co-working space in Madison. The only bummer is the lack of direct sunlight. I'm interested in getting a natural light lamp.It seems like most of the models I've looked at have a 27W 4-pin bulb. Any suggestions out there?

This is a list of ideas for group activities that encourage physical activity and promote community building.

1. Coder sprint
2. Tossing around the Frisbee
3. Rock wall!
4. Bikeride / scavenger hunt
5. Skydiving
6. Indoor skydiving
7. Paintball / airsoft

Thousands of children and adults in the United States live with intellectual disabilities. These individuals often find themselves marginalized in their communities, schools, and sometimes even their own families. Special Olympics works to improve the lives of people with intellectual disabilities through year-round sports training and athletic competition and to create a better world by fostering the acceptance and inclusion of all people.

With the warmer weather and daylight savings in effect, I've caught the golf bug again. Wondering if anyone else has too (tends to be contagious). If so, what do you think of having a Drupal Golf Outing at a local course. Doesn't have to be anything big, one foursome would suffice.

Hi everyone!

A few fellow Drupal fans and I launched a website this month called www.mygymandtrainer.com. The site looks to provide information on all of the personal trainers, gyms and group fitness classes out there and is nationwide. We grew frustrated with the lack of information on which trainers and classes or gyms are terrific or not so much. Signing up for a class and then realizing that you've just wasted the last hour of your time and money is never a good feeling. So, in a nutshell we wanted to change that.

Anyone hesitating at getting up off the couch....

Thought I'd share this article: Phys Ed: The Benefits of Exercising Before Breakfast

Some excerpts:

The men who ate breakfast before exercising gained weight, too, although only about half as much as the control group. Like those sedentary big eaters, however, they had become more insulin-resistant and were storing a greater amount of fat in their muscles.
