Idaho was almost at the top of the list trailing only our Western sister state of Colorado who was number one.

It's a 90-minute "mass class," and it's going to kick off Idaho Yoga Week this Sunday. Grab your mat and set it up on the Idaho State Capital grass and join hundreds of others in what could be Boise's biggest yoga class ever.

If weight has been a struggle your whole life, you're not alone. I've been up and down too, but there is one secret that we can all latch onto that will help us kick the extra weight in its big fat butt once and for all. And the experts agree.

Drinking out of a keg might not be all that friendly to the waistline, but if you lift a keg and toss it around, it can totally tone you up. Keg training is becoming more popular, and some Boise athletes are hopping on board with 30-minute, keg-centered workouts.

We already know that Boise is a pretty active place, but a new poll says we're exercising more regularly than most of the US! See where we land in the top 25.

Even if you don't consider yourself to be a runner, you can totally do this. Fit One gives us the chance to run hard or take it easy, and it gets the whole family involved. Oh, and if you think you can't run several miles all at once, think again. If I learned to do it, you can too!

Exercise takes time, and it's not always practical to take a chunk out of the work day to hit the gym, right? My boyfriend takes regular trips to the conference room to do planks, and he's found other ways to burn a calorie around his office too.  There is so much to learn from this guy!

It's January and the gym parking lots are a little more crowded. It's awesome that so many people are resolving to get in better shape.  But there are some things we should work together on so we can all be good gym members, right?  Like don't wear too much perfume.

To be healthy and fit, it turns out we don't have to run marathons or hit the gym very hard. Here's some great news about how the Greenbelt, or maybe the Table Rock Trail, can improve health and extend our lives.

Do you ever feel bombarded with diet and fitness advice? Me too!  There's a lot of clutter out there, and sometimes I just want to hear one person's story about what worked for them so I can copy it.  Here's what worked for me.
