It seems like everyone is trying to exercise and get in shape, but it can be hard to know where to start. Instead of diving right in and risking injury, arm yourself with a good base of knowledge first. Follow the tips in this article, and you’ll be able to get the most out of your fitness routine.

Make sure and find a workout routine that you enjoy so you can keep doing it. If you don’t enjoy your exercise, chances are you are going to find reasons to stop doing it. Try out different exercises and different times to see what works for you. It may be that zoning out on the elliptical does the trick or taking a morning swim keeps you motivated. Jogging around the track before dinner could be your ticket to weight loss. Find what keeps you going back for more and you’ll be well on your way to losing weight.

Always be sure to stretch before any kind of work out or exercise routine. Stretching warms up your muscles and gets your body ready for a work out. Be sure to hold each stretch for ten to thirty seconds in order to get optimal results. Stretching also helps prevent injury.

A good tip to help you get fit is to make sure you’re getting at least eight hours of sleep every night. Our bodies release hormones as we sleep and if you cut your sleep short, you’re not getting the full benefit. Eight hours of sleep or more, should be enough.

Add resistance training to your exercise plan. Resistance training helps build muscle. The more muscle you have in your body, the more quickly and efficiently you can burn calories. Resistance bands or light weights are good options for working out at home. You can also use your own body weight to provide resistance. Exercises, such as push-ups and squats, make your muscles bear the weight of your body and that builds strength.

Practice “Four-Square Breathing” after your workout while stretching. Breath in for four seconds, then breath out for four seconds, and repeat for three minutes. “Four-Square Breathing” increases your lung capacity and reduces stress when done properly, which helps you relax after your workout, and get ready for the rest of your day.

A great fitness tip is to strengthen your abs. To do this, you do not need to work them out every single day. Abs are like all the other muscles of the body. They need recovery time. Therefore, you should aim to train your abs around two or three times per week.

If you wish to get more bulk from exercise or go the body building route, you may need to take a protein supplement. Protein supplements are made from whey, soy or casein. They deliver protein to the body quicker than other forms when digested because they can be easily dissolved in water or other fluids, for consumption.

If you are looking for a way to save time and get an efficient workout, for the entire workout don’t switch weights, keep the same one. Choose your weight based on your weakest exercise. Pick an amount you are able to lift no more than 6 to 8 times. Use this weight, and do your routine in a circuit.

Take care of your shoulders when weight lifting. To do this, decrease the amount of weight you’re lifting by about 10% when you have to change grips. If you keep the same weight but keep changing your grips, you may injure yourself by working the muscles in a way thay they are not used to.

Take care of your runner’s calves by changing your sleep position. This will help to better stretch them out during the night. Begin by sleeping on your stomach with your feet hanging off the bed; this will cause your legs to stretch out your calf muscles all night. This will prevent painful calf stiffness the next morning.

Being physically fit and healthy is crucial to your quality of life, so it’s extremely important that you go about it the right way. Having a solid foundation of understanding of fitness is key to any exercise routine. Apply the knowledge you’ve learned from this article, and you’ll be on the road to better health.

An Open Letter to The Palm
First Anniversary of the “Urban Camping” Ban (pdf)

This action seeks to highlight the role of The Palm and the Colorado Restaurant Association in pushing an ordinance through the city council that criminalized the survival act of sleeping by our homeless friends. Wendy Klein, the sales manager at The Palm, testified for the Downtown Denver Partnership in support of the “Urban Camping” Ban. Detailed information on the impact of the “Urban Camping” Ban on the homeless can be found at Denver Homeless Out Loud.

Wendy Klein, sales manager at The Palm, spoke in strong favor of the ordinance criminalizing homelessness at the April 30, 2012 city council public hearing about the “Urban Camping” Ban. She also brought the unanimous vote of the Colorado Restaurant Association in support of the ban to the City Council.

According to Kline who could only refer to the homeless as they or it, “they are lining up outside our doors even as we speak this evening placing their property on our property to save their nights real estate so that they will have a safe, warm place to sleep impeding our guests and even those who are walking back and forth from the restaurant…Now with the warmer weather descending, we are seeing it come back in full force. Our people are asking us what we can do.”

The wealthiest “movers and shakers” in Denver meet to eat, socialize and make deals at Palm Restaurant.

Occupy Denver calls on The Palm, the Colorado Restaurant Association, the Downtown Denver Partnership and the City Council to take the lead of other cities and pursue compassionate, justice-based alternatives instead of criminalizing homelessness. We call on business groups to increase funding for initiatives that will eradicate homelessness.

Homes Not Handcuffs: The Criminalization of Homelessness in U.S. Cities, a report from the National Coalition for the Homeless and the National Law Center on Homelessness & Poverty, provides many alternatives to the criminalization of homelessness.

The report makes the following recommendations:

• Instead of criminalizing homelessness, local governments, business groups, and law enforcement officials should work with homeless people, providers, and advocates for solutions to prevent and end homelessness.
• Cities should dedicate more resources to creating more affordable housing, permanent supportive housing, emergency shelters, and homeless services in general. To address street homelessness, cities should adopt or dedicate more resources to outreach programs, emergency shelter, and permanent supportive housing.
• Business groups can play a positive role in helping to address the issue of homelessness. Instead of advocating for criminalization measures, business groups can put resources into solutions to homelessness.
• When cities work with homeless persons and advocate for solutions to homelessness, instead of punishing those who are homeless or poor, everyone benefits.

The House Federalism Committee still hasn’t given House bills HJR-94 and HCR-21 against Citizens United v. FEC a hearing. We MUST get a hearing scheduled THIS WEEK, which means they must hear from you by TOMORROW (Friday 4/26).

Committee Chairman Brandon Creighton’s office is telling us they aren’t getting many calls on HJR-94 and HCR-21. Take 15 seconds and show them we are TOO STRONG!

Call Chairman Creighton (pronounced “cray-ton”) at 512-463-0726. Tell the nice staffer that answers, “I want Rep. Creighton to pass HJR-94 and HCR-21* through the Federalism Committee so my representative can have a floor vote on it in the House.”

CRITICAL! After you call, email Todd Jagger at Wolf-PAC (todd@wolf-pac.com) to let him know you’ve called Creighton’s office. (Remember, Creighton’s staff says they aren’t getting too many calls)

The Texas House is OUR house. Are we gonna let them push us around? Hell no!

This is it. It’s up to you.
Just one thing.
Will you do it?

Let’s Make History!

* – HJR-94 is the Wolf-PAC resolution that bypasses our broken and bought Congress to call an Article V Convention to propose an amendment to fix money in politics; HCR-21 is the Move To Amend resolution which asks Congress to propose an amendment. We support our brothers (and sisters) in arms at Wolf-PAC Texas and Move To Amend and they support us.

- Boycott Snooze, Occupy Denver and MoveOn Denver Metro –

The Snooze AM Eatery statement in full:

Since we established Snooze in the heart of the 5 points/Arapahoe Square and the Ballpark Neighborhoods, Snooze has worked to support and help Denver’s homeless community. We have embraced this endeavor by hiring and providing employment, sitting on the board of the Denver Homeless Commission, fundraising, creating a mentoring program through Urban Peak, volunteering and spreading awareness to support the homeless. When the Urban Camping Ban proposal was presented to us, we believed the Ban would provide and allow for more services and support in the form of shelters, mental health and general assistance for our area homeless. We believe that the Urban Camping Ban has not provided these opportunities and should be repealed or amended to more effectively meet the needs of our homeless community. As always, our goal at Snooze is to support and assist any endeavor that strives to improve and better the lives of our homeless community. To that end, we believe that the Urban Camping Ban has not met the needs of Denver’s homeless community and we respectively ask the city of Denver as well as the business community at large to work towards repeal or modification of the Urban Camping Ban and work towards an effective solution for Denver’s business and homeless communities.

Respectfully,

Snooze

For instance, people tend to ignore the way they watch TV. Whether the room is extremely light or they do it in the dark, none of these options is actually recommended. In fact, the room should be slightly lighted, but make sure that the light is not reflected in the screen. Anything that can influence your vision will force you to keep your eyes half closed or focus too much. When the eyes are affected by such problems, the apparition of fine lines is only a matter of time. They evolve into wrinkles very fast too.

Reading books may also ask for some special care, especially if you do it online. More and more people choose to read newspapers, books or magazines on their computers or tablets. The screen brightness is very important from this point of view. At some moment, it can be quite annoying. If you use a tablet outdoors, the light should not reflect in it, but it must also be kept in the proper position.

Finally, everyone knows that tobacco does harm the skin, but people do not realize how severe its effect is. They think they can just invest in a high quality cream like Lift and Glow Pro and skip those effects. A good cream can be useful indeed, but it must be associated with some healthy ideas too, otherwise, positive effects are easily outweighed by your negative lifestyle.

By this point many people are aware that Occupy Austin had undercover officers embedded. From records obtained in court we know that a total of 6 officers were involved with Occupy Austin but only 3 were involved with the Port of Houston Solidarity Action on December 12th 2011.  Occupy Austin had to be tipped off and find the identity of the first Detective, Shannon Dowell.  The other two detectives were named in court as Deek Moore and Rick Reza.  The name of a fourth undercover officer was obtained by Occupy Austin from an Open Records Request with the city.  Back in December of 2011 we submitted a request for information.  When we finally got the information, not much seemed relevant but after finding out about the undercover officers and re-examining the Open Records Request it is clear that we found the identity of a final undercover detective: Shane Woodward.  The following is a profile of the 3 officers, we are asking for any help in developing the profile of the 4th officer, Shane Woodward.  The Officers will be ordered by apparent ranking within the operation, Deek Moore being the lead undercover followed by Shannon Dowell and Rick Reza.

Detective Kelly Deek Moore, APD, Human Trafficking/Vice

Kelly Deek Moore, or “Dirk” as he went by at Occupy Austin was the point man between APD brass and the other undercover detectives.  Notably, Deek is a musician AND activist AND detective.  Detective Deek Moore joined APD’s Human Trafficking/Vice Unit in June 2010. He began his law enforcement career with the Amarillo Police Department in 1995. Detective Moore came to the Austin Police Department through a modified academy in 1999, and has been assigned to various patrol areas, including bike patrol in the downtown entertainment district and West Campus area of UT. Moore has worked a variety of undercover assignments, including 5 years with Southwest Street Response – a unit that addressed street-level narcotics, prostitution, serial crimes and warrant service. In 2008 he promoted to the rank of detective, and was assigned to SW Investigations. Detective Moore served as a South Bureau night shift detective for a year before coming to the Human Trafficking Task Force. He has taken an active role in the grassroots volunteer group Allies Against Slavery, which supplements the efforts of the Central Texas Coalition Against Human Trafficking (CTCAHT).

Detective Shannon Dowell, APD, Narcotics

Not as much is known about Shannon other than he was our first lead on this case.  His first name was given to us in a tip-off email we got from a concerned citizen.  We know that Dowell had infiltrated the group as early as Oct. 3rd along with Det. Moore.  We also know that he had an epic beard and was something of an instigator.  Dowell was known to come up to folks and ask when we were going to “make something happen”, and start “acting” rather than “debating” all the time.  In the end, Dowell still has some of the most interesting things to reveal about this operation, which are still being debated and obscured today by the APD.  Dowell said his chain of command went to the Cheif and he was working under an “intelligence unit” (ARIC), but the details of command and control of this operation are still unknown, even by the APD.

Even less is known about our pipe wielding friend here, Det. Reza.  We know that he was not with the camp as early as Moore and Dowell but they had been to numerous actions before the 12th.  One of the most outstanding things Reza did, besides pose for this epic photo, was to bring a bag of bricks to a march.  Yes, Rick Bag-O-Bricks brought a full bag of bricks to a march and let organizers know that he had them ready in case they wanted to “kick it up a notch.”

Detective Shane Woodward, APD, Narcotics

Help us get a picture of Shane Woodward!  An email we obtained from an Open Records Request is sent from Det. Shane Woodward reporting back the announcements of a General Assembly on Oct. 3rd 2011.  This meeting was held BEFORE there was an Occupy Austin camp with two attorneys present.  We have the minutes of that meeting here.  Woodward mentions both Det. Moore and Dowell in his reportback which makes it clear that he was working in an undercover capacity as Det. Dowell had a full beard and would have stood out as a police officer had he been in uniform.  We obtained info from the Open Records Request back in early 2012 but it was not until we had more information from court which made it clear that Woodward was one of the 6 UC’s named in the APD Packet.  We have not uploaded the entire contents of the Open Records Request yet, just the email from Woodward, but there may be more clues in there as to what happened and who was involved.   If anyone has any additional information about Woodward, especially an image, please send us info through social media or send email to interocc@occupyausin.org
