We’ll introduce you to exercises you’ve never done, equipment you’ve never tried, and workouts that you’ve dreamed of! We’ve literally brought the pages of our magazines to life in the most fun venue on the planet: the beach. That’s right: Fit men and women in swimsuits—abs rippling, butts glistening—getting fitter by the second.
Day 1 starts with a grueling and exhilarating 12-station, 90-minute workout on the beach: We call it The Gauntlet. It combines the latest metabolic-training methods along with the coolest equipment. You’ll learn how to use battling ropes, kettlebells, medicine balls, TRX, and even sandbags to get an unbelievable workout. (more…)
Perhaps the biggest surprise is what’s missing from this year’s list: Pilates, which was among the top 10 trends in 2008, 2009 and 2010, now has fallen out of the top 20 for the second consecutive year.

A few key tips for safe running in the snow.
1. Taper for three weeks before the marathon. Most first timers do not let their body recover before the marathon. You need to gradually pull back on your training in order for your body to fully recover and be 100% ready to go on the marathon day. You should maintain your normal training intensity throughout the final three weeks, but you should gradually decrease your workout time. So three weeks out you should do 75% of your normal workload, two weeks out you should do 50% and the last week you should do 25%. This will leave you well-rested, but still sharp, when you toe the line.
