The Ministry of Movement - a list by hanahula

About this list:

Having been a bookworm as a child and inevitably the last one picked for any team in gym class, I would never have believed that I would be a die-hard fitness fanatic once I reached my freshman year in college. So, I know that there is an exercise to please each and every body. Perhaps you just haven't happened upon it yet. But you will feel better once you do . . . I hope this list helps you to find your own groove and work it.

The Ropeless Jump Rope

First to recommend

Description

An excellent work-out for your entire body, jumping rope now becomes possible within small spaces, such as hotel rooms or cubicles. Maybe the weather is lousy or you need to take your show on the road. Carry these rope handles with you in the included bag. And get additional coaching on the use of the handles with the instructional DVD.

Amazon: The Cactus Eaters by Dan White

First to recommend

Description

If you have ever thought about taking a long trek through relatively uncharted terrain or merely wondered about the sanity of those who do, this book will provide you with a laugh-out-loud account of one man's quest to conquer the Pacific Coast Trail (PCT). What he finds and what he loses along the way will provide you with great insight as well as numerous useful tips about hiking and those who hike. Even if you never get the urge to go out and buy yourself a backpack, this is a great read.

Target: Junior Spirit Archery Set

First to recommend

Description

My son recently told me that he wants to be an archer when he grows up. Okay, so, maybe there aren't that many paying jobs out there for a well-trained archer, but he could be on that Olympic roster one day. And, lest I squelch any sincere desire he has to pursue excellence, I agreed to buy him an archery set this summer. If you have a budding archer in your own family, this junior set is a fun and safe place to start practicing.
