Healthy Skeptic Robert Davis Explains How Too Much Sitting Around Can Kill You

00:00 /

On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy had on our good friend Robert Davis, the author of The Healthy Skeptic from Everwell. Robert talked about a new study that illustrates the dangers of sitting too much. Robert is an award winning health journalist who specializes in debunking the myths behind the health claims that make it in print and on TV. Today Robert discussed the results of several studies that show that sitting too long has a detrimental effect on your overall health. The most recent study showed that people who sat for over 6 hours a day had a higher premature death rate than those who moved around more. This was true even if they exercised. So don’t sit for long. Find opportunities to get up throughout your day. Try those treadmill desks at work like TrekDesk. And make it a point to stand up and pace during phone calls. And when you are at home watching TV try and exercise during commercial breaks.

James Park Explains How FitBit Will Get Your Weight Loss Program Moving

00:00 /

On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy had on James Park from FitBit. FitBit is a small and stylish health and wellbeing monitoring tool. It’s like a pedometer on steroids – and I mean that in that best way possible. It automatically collects data about your daily activities literally 24/7. You see it has a single 3-axis accelerometer similar to the Nintendo Wii. So whenever you move it records the movement pretty accurately. Plus you can press a button on the FitBit and check your progress whenever you want. It then wirelessly syncs the data to your computer. And then you can share your data on Facebook or Twitter. I have been using it for about a month and it is amazing how sedentary I am some days – sometimes I take only 3-4000 steps in a day. My record day has been around 14,000 steps. It really makes you aware that you have to make an effort to go for a walk or exercise. Even when I walk this 5k loop in my neighborhood that only is about 6000 steps – so I still have to do more in order to hit 10,000 steps. Fitbit (with their premium service) is your 24 hour digital personal trainer, nutritionist and sleep consultant. Learn more about this great accountability tool and purchase yours at www.fitbit.com – be patient they might be backordered but they are worth the wait.

Spinach Orzo Pasta Recipe

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy share a favorite spinach orzo pasta recipe. Orzo is a kind of pasta that looks like a big single piece of rice. I like the whole wheat orzo the best. It kind of reminds me of the roni in rice-a-roni. Boil the orzo until almost done then pull it out of the water and put in a colander to cool. The dressing is a balsamic vinegar and olive oil combo. Now add some spinach, olives, onions. Lose the cheese to save some calories. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
