How to Lose Weight Watching TV

We are fast becoming a society of statues. A curious species who seem to have our collective asses permanently attached to a chair. Or preferably, a couch. We discovered that within a few years many of us will have identical movement patterns and daily activity levels to that of the oak tree. Yep, it appears that many of us have become fat (seated) spectators in the game of life. Heavy sigh.

Fat sigh.

Moving towards a Solution

So as I'm an Exercise Scientist and Personal Development Bloke, I thought it might be timely and appropriate for me to throw out one simple suggestion which might be a practical and realistic strategy to offset a little of that collective inactivity. A simple way to burn a bunch more calories, lose some weight and fat, improve our health, increase our fitness and get us in a better place emotionally and psychologically without even having to leave our lounge room (although we could do it anywhere). No use talking about problems unless we're serious about finding a solution. Otherwise we're just complaining.

Keeping it Simple

Note that what I am about to outline is not a global answer to obesity (of course) or a one-program-fits-all solution for the fat asses of the world. No, it's my way of showing how simple and effective exercising for weight-loss can be when we find a way, rather than find an excuse. While the moaning masses might be problem-focused, you and I are gonna be solution-focused. So there.

The following example is exactly that; an example of how practical and uncomplicated we can make the process of increasing our daily energy expenditure.

Some Interesting Facts:

1. The average person watches about three hours of television per day - mostly in the evening. These figures are similar in the U.K. (according to the research I have).

2. Every hour of commercial prime-time television is programmed with about fifteen minutes of advertisements. Forty five minutes of show, fifteen minutes of ads - with the ads typically being broken up into five three(ish) minutes blocks.

3. An individual who regularly watches TV from 7.30pm - 10.30pm (for example) will be subjected to approximately forty five minutes of mind-numbing, ass-expanding ads every night.

The Suggestion

Use those three minute blocks to change your body and life.

A Question

What would happen over the course of a year if our average TV watcher got off the couch and did some simple, easy-to-do step-ups (stepping up and down on a box, step, platform) every time the ads were on? The answer is quite staggering.

Some Hypotheticals

The following hypothetical scenarios are based on the assumption that the only change in the subject's lifestyle (diet, incidental and occupational activity) is the inclusion of the fifteen three-minute bouts of stepping. The step height would be either eight or twelve inches (20 or 30cm). The estimated annual weight loss was calculated by dividing the total calories expended for the year (via stepping) by 3,500. See my recent article for clarification on the significance of the 3,500 figure.

Health Top Tips Nutrition Lifestyle


Example 1.

Weight of subject: 150 lbs (68 kgs)

Daily stepping commitment: 15 x 3 mins
Additional energy expended per day (8 inch box): 460 cals
Additional energy expended per day (12 inch box): 552 cals
Additional energy expended per year (8 inch box): 167,900 cals
Additional energy expended per year (12 inch box): 201,480 cals

Potential weight loss for the year (8 inch box): 48 lbs (21.8 kgs)
Potential weight loss for the year (12 inch box): 57.6 lbs (26.1 kgs)

Example 2.

Weight of subject: 200 lbs (90.7 kgs)

Daily stepping commitment: 15 x 3 mins
Additional energy expended per day (8 inch box): 614 cals
Additional energy expended per day (12 inch box): 737 cals
Additional energy expended per year (8 inch box): 224,110 cals
Additional energy expended per year (12 inch box): 269,005 cals

Potential weight loss for the year (8 inch box): 64 lbs (29 kgs)
Potential weight loss for the year (12 inch box): 76.9 lbs (34.9 kgs)

Example 3.

Weight of subject: 250 lbs (113.4 kgs)

Daily stepping commitment: 15 x 3 mins
Additional energy expended per day (8 inch box): 767 cals
Additional energy expended per day (12 inch box): 921 cals
Additional energy expended per year (8 inch box): 279,995 cals
Additional energy expended per year (12 inch box): 336,165 cals

Potential weight loss for the year (8 inch box): 80 lbs (36.3 kgs)
Potential weight loss for the year (12 inch box): 96 lbs (43.5 kgs)

Wow!

Freaky huh? Now, of course I'm not suggesting that we would, should or could (well, I guess we could if we really wanted to) step for forty five minutes every day for the next year, but what I am suggesting is that when we remove the emotion and the bullshit excuses, increasing our daily energy expenditure (thereby losing weight and fat) really ain't that complex. Unless of course we find a way to make it so. And no, what I've written above is not (in any way) intended to be a personal exercise prescription for any individual.

Who said disclaimer?

Some Final Thoughts

Naturally the heavier you are the more energy you will expend (cals you will burn) per unit of time, so simply adjust the numbers up or down by using the above weights and figures as a guide. Of course you could replace the step-ups with a number of alternatives and use your three minute intervals any way you choose. Activities such as stair walking, skipping, treadmill and stationary bike could all be viable options. There are a few other variables which will have some impact on precisely on how much energy you expend over your three minutes (like technique and intensity) but overall, the above figures will give you a good idea of what's possible.
I chose the old-fashioned step-up because it's cost effective, practical, convenient, requires no equipment (okay a box), no skill and is suitable for most fitness levels. It's also pretty handy at targeting the ass, hips and legs - per chance you should know somebody whose lower body is in need of some attention!

Weight Loss - How to Lose Weight and Gain Energy

Whenever I start to diet in an attempt to lose weight I find I have no energy. Heard that before?

You look in the mirror and your eyes and good sense tell you are carrying a few extra pounds and that losing them and getting back to your "best fighting weight" when you were younger would make you feel much healthier and fitter. And yet when you start your chosen dieting program you become lethargic, without the energy to do anything.

The first thing you have to remember is that your life has probably changed to a degree that you do not realise. From single to married, children, advancement at work, it comes gradually and you seem to cope but the truth is underneath the surface it all builds up. As a consequence we tend to think more about other people and less about ourselves. That is until that day when we stop looking at ourselves in the mirror through rose colored glasses.

It is a very lucky person who does not have to reassess their life at some point and make a change. Our bodies do change as well as our lifestyles and by recognising that something needs to change we have taken a very important first step.

The next step of course is to start a diet but which one? There are so many it can be confusing and easy to be persuaded by the marketing. Many go for the rapid weight loss offer but this is a disaster waiting to happen. So often the only loss you make is weight from your wallet as the rapid loss is followed by rapid gain when the intense diet programe cannot be sustained. Along with that rapid weight loss comes the lack of energy, which is no great surprise when we are robbing our bodies if the vital food source it requires to manufacture that energy.

Health Top Tips Nutrition Lifestyle


Much better is choosing a diet plan that allows you to eat, trains you to eat a little less than your body requires and just as importantly eat healthier foods that are far more nutritious. Substitute fast food with fresh fruit and vegetable and you will see and feel a big difference. The excuse for not preparing meals from fresh produce is that there is not enough time in the busy day. There may be the occasional time when this is true and convenience food is essential to stoke the boiler. Don't feel guilty if it is "once every blue moon" but make sure that you are a person who has good personal control who does not fall back into lazy habits. But let us be clear, it is much, much better to make time for you and cook a good wholesome and healthy meal.

Combine healthy food with a small lifestyle change (a bit more YOU time), add some gentle exercise that you can build up if you begin to enjoy it and you will find that you can lose weight and gain energy.

Please remember to have a check up with your doctor before embarking on any major diet or exercise programs.

Fun Way to Lose Weight: Turn Dieting Into an RPG

A friend of mine recently slimmed down on Weight Watchers. She joined two months ago, and in just a couple of weeks, she'd shed 10 pounds. She'd been trying for a year to lose weight, but nothing worked -- until now.

Why did Weight Watchers work so well? For a really fascinating reason: because it isn't a normal diet. It's something more. Something fun.

It's an RPG.

The Weight Watchers program is designed precisely like a role-playing dungeon crawler. That's why people love it, stick to it and have success with it. And it points to the way that we could use game design to make life's drudgery more bearable.

Let me unpack this a bit. When I asked my friend to see how Weight Watchers works, she showed me the ingenious system. "The best part is the web tool," she said, pulling it up on her laptop.

When you first log in to Weight Watchers, it determines how much food you'll be allowed to eat that day, expressed as a number of "points." My friend gets 23 points per day. Each time she eats a piece of food, she enters it into the online database, and it calculates how many points she's used. A small apple is one point; a piece of fried chicken is seven points.

When she first started the program, she was stunned at how quickly she burned through her daily points. A single bagel was six points -- more than 25 percent of her daily quota. "How the hell am I going to do this without starving?" she wondered.

But pretty soon she learned to hack her daily eating to suit the system. She snacked on vegetables that took zero points -- like bell peppers -- or only one or two points, like a tasty brand of microwave popcorn. Then she'd save up the big points for a really decent dinner. Better yet, Weight Watchers assigns her an extra 35 bonus points per week that she can use if she goes over her daily limit. Or she can bank them for a big blowout restaurant meal on the weekend.

What makes this point-counting possible is Weight Watchers' elegant online tool. Type in any food you can think of -- including brand-name snacks or boxed meals -- and Weight Watchers has already calculated the points for you. If she makes a special sandwich at Home, she can calculate the ingredients, save it with a custom name, and then drag and drop it into her day every time she eats one.

As I watched her poke around on the screen, managing inventory, calculating points, staying within her range, it hit me:

Weight Watchers is an RPG.

Think about it. As with an RPG, you roll a virtual character, manage your inventory and resources, and try to achieve a goal. Weight Watchers' points function precisely like hit points; each bite of food does damage until you've used up your daily amount, so you sleep and start all over again. Play well and you level up -- by losing weight! And the more you play it, the more you discover interesting combinations of the rules that aren't apparent at first. Hey, if I eat a fruit-granola breakfast and an egg-and-romaine lunch, I'll have enough points to survive a greasy hamburger dinner for a treat!

Even the Weight Watchers web tool is amazingly gamelike. It has the poke-around-and-see-what-happens elegance you see in really good RPG game screens. Accidentally snack on a candy bar and ruin your meal plan for the day? No worries: Just go into the database and see what spells -- whoops, I mean foods -- you can still use with your remaining points.

And those 35 extra points you get every week? They're like a special buff or potion -- a last-ditch save when you're on the ropes.

Indeed, I'm in awe of the sheer brilliance of Weight Watchers in adopting the word points as its metric for measuring food. The word immediately shoves the user into the semantics -- and fun -- of gameplay. You regard losing weight as an intriguing challenge, as opposed to a mere grind.

This puts me in mind of the talk that Jane McGonigal -- a brilliant and pioneering alternative-reality game designer -- gave at this year's South by Southwest conference. She argued that game designers ought to put their skills to use in the real world by reshaping dull, everyday activities into fun challenges. Why not a game that gives you points for walking your dog or jogging?

"Games are an incredible language and system. They should be everywhere," she said. "Why are we making games only for the bound pages for a computer screen or console? Why aren't we doing that to help people navigate and understand the world around us?"

She couldn't be more right. As McGonigal points out, there are already some witty attempts -- like Chore Wars, Wii Fit or Seriosity's system that tries to limit corporate e-mail overload by forcing people to "spend" virtual totems to send a message. I can think of tons of things I'd love to see turned into a game: doing my taxes, dealing with my inbox backlog, being stuck in traffic.

And this stuff is clearly possible, because if Weight Watchers can turn something as unpleasant as dieting into a playful activity, the sky's the limit.

How to Install Tiki Wiki in cPanel

How to Install Tiki Wiki in cPanel

TikiWiki is a content management system/groupware application commonly used to build content-rich websites and portals.  It can also be used to create everything from blogs and forums to knowledge bases and structured wikis like those you will find on Wikipedia and much more.  Like most content management systems, this one can be greatly enhanced through various add-on modules.  This tutorial will provide you step by step instructions for installing Tiki Wiki through your cPanel control panel.

cPanel gives you two ways to install TikiWiki.  You can install the software manually, or through Fantastico, which is integrated into cPanel.  We will go over both installation methods.

Fantastico Installation

Login into your cPanel account.

Locate and click the "Fatastico" icon at the bottom of the main page.

When Fanstastico opens, you will see a list of add-on programs that came included with your web hosting account.  Under "Content Management", locate and click on "TikiWiki".

To right of the page, click the "New Installation" tab.

The next step of the installation process calls for you to enter the directory where you want the TikiWiki application to be placed.  If you want it installed on your root directory, simply leave this field blank.

Below you will be required to enter the following information:

  • Install in directory
  • Admin access data
  • Base configuration admin e-mail
  • Admin full name
  • Site name

Enter the required information and click on the "Install TikiWiki" tab.

On the next page, you will see a summary of the installation.  After reading this, click on "Finish Installation".  From here you will provided with a link that takes you directly to the administrative area where you can login and start building your TikiWiki site.

Manual Installation

To install the software manually, visit the official TikiWiki site and download the latest version of the application to your local hard drive.  Unzip the file you downloaded to a specified directory of your choosing

Upload the extracted files to your web host's sever on a specified directory of your choosing.  To do this, you will need an FTP client.

Login into your cPanel account, locate and click the "MySQL Databases" icon.

From the MySQL main page, create a database for the TikiWiki software.  Save this information, along with the username and password for later use.

After successfully creating a MySQL database, go to the location where the files you recently uploaded are stored.  An installation wizard will launch and ask that you enter the credentials for your database.

Once you enter these details, you will be prompted to select the installation profile.  You can choose the default option.

From here, the wizard will create the database tables and entries.  Once complete, you will be provided with results that let you know if the installation was successful.  You should then be provided with a link that takes you directly to the administrative area where you can login and start building your Tiki Wiki site.

Tiki Wiki Requirements

In order to get the best out of Tiki Wiki, your server must be equipped with the Apache web server, PHP 4 or higher and MySQL 4.1 or higher.  Postgre SQL and MS SQL are only partially supported and therefore not recommended.

Colocation vs. Dedicated and Managed Hosting

Colocation vs. Dedicated and Managed Hosting

If shared hosting can no longer keep up with your growing demands, rest assured that there are other alternatives that will suit those needs.  Three of the most practical solutions are colocation, dedicated and managed hosting.  Both refer to arrangements where you have your own server instead of sharing one with other customers.  Which is right for you?  This article will help you make a determination.
What is Colocation?
Often referred to as server colocation, colocation hosting refers to a situation where you store your server hardware in a hosting provider's data center.  This type of arrangement requires that you actually purchase your own hardware.  The host provides you with space as well as other services that typically include an internet connection, redundant power sources and physical security.  Colocation is ideal for someone who requires more flexibility yet doesn't have the resources to maintain their own server.  It is also best suited for those who are knowledgeable of server administration as these tasks are generally not performed by the host.
What is Dedicated Hosting?
Dedicated hosting describes an arrangement where you lease a server from a web hosting company.  Just like colocation, you generally get an internet connection, physical security and all the protective features that come along with the provider's data center.  With dedicated hosting, you are granted with complete control over your hosting environment.  You can modify server settings, install your own operating systems and other software components.  Because you are not sharing critical resources with other domain owners, dedicated hosting offers enhanced performance with increased uptime.  With more speed and tighter security, this type of hosting is well suited for businesses that perform mission-critical operations and experience large volumes of traffic.
What is Managed Hosting?
In general, managed hosting refers to the management of a dedicated server.  The average dedicated server package only gets you an operating system, internet connection and the actual server which is maintained in the provider's data facility.  In its purest form, a dedicated server calls for you to perform all the complex administrative tasks.  This includes installing software technologies, security mechanisms and performing general maintenance.  Managed hosting alleviate you from these tasks are they are handled by the provider.  You generally have the option of selecting the services you want to be managed by the web host.  Managed hosting is pretty much what it sounds like, outsourcing the management tasks of your dedicated server to another company.  This type of hosting is geared toward businesses who either lack administrative skills or simply do not have the time to maintain a server.
Conclusion
Each type of hosting mentioned in this article has its advantages and disadvantages.  Since colocation calls for you to purchase your own server, the initial investment is much higher.  On the other hand, leasing a dedicated server is far more expensive over the long run.  Because of the additional services involved, managed hosting is the most costly solution of them all.  As you can see, these services are quite similar yet very distinct.  The right decision for you ultimately depends on what you have to invest as well your level of IT experience.

What are the options for web hosting?

What are the options for web hosting?

If you are just starting out and want no string attached, there are plenty of alternatives. Free hosting allows you to not only create a website, but it helps beginners, no matter how much experience they have. Although there are popup downsides and other annoyances, free web hosting will give you everything that you need. If you are not sure if you even want to extensively design one, Geocities or AngelFire is great to experiment with.

Are you looking for something a bit more customized? For many webmasters, shared hosting is a favorite. This means that an abundance of websites are actually on one server. While this only costs a few dollars a month, there are still issues that come along with it. For instance, if a fellow webmaster were to have done something illegal, chances are your website would be shut down as well. This is because you share an IP, which of course can be quite dangerous. For this reason, you must be careful when choosing people to share a host with.

While these are great alternatives, many professional companies enjoy dedicated hosting. Fortunately, the website is the only one on the server, which results in a lot less complications. With freedom comes a plethora of features, which include extra bandwidth, visitor trackers, and your own I.P. As a result, you do not have to worry about illegal situations occurring within your server. Everything is based around your needs.

Reseller hosting is another admired amenity. If you are a webmaster and are looking to make some extra cash, this is a great opportunity. In simple terms, you purchase a web hosting package from a company and divide the space into several sections. These sections can easily be purchased by fellow webmasters, who are in need of space. With this business in place, you will effortless make a few dollars.

Regardless of what you are looking to make, web hosting is necessary. From free companies to dedicated servers with only one website, there are endless opportunities. Although people assume that there is only one type of package, this article clearly shows how wrong the myth can be. The only requirement is that you are ready to work hard, be innovative, and stand out among the crowd. With these factors in mind, you could be to the top in no time.

Dedicated Hosting For Beginners

Dedicated Hosting For Beginners

Dedicated hosting is different from shared hosting in that it resides on a server by itself. Shared hosting means that several websites are sharing the same server, but when there is a problem with that single server, all of the websites residing on that server will fall victim to that problem. That is why more and more people are turning to dedicated hosting.


A business can purchase their own dedicated server or they can lease it. There are other options available for those who choose a dedicated server and that is to have their hosting managed. That is why dedicated hosting is frequently referred to as managed hosting. Nevertheless, dedicated hosting is more flexible than shared hosting.

Return on investment

In many ways, dedicated hosting can result in a larger return on investment. This is due to the fact that there is very little overhead involved. If a company were to have their dedicated hosting in-house, they may be facing some pretty steep costs. However, employing the hosting company to take care of all of the administrative responsibilities can prove to be quite profitable.

For those who may not have the IT staff or be able to afford a staff to take care of the server, having the hosting company take care of technical issues and routine maintenance is going to be something you might find quite handy. Basically, that allows you to concentrate on those things that are important within your business. Not that your hosting isn't important, because it is. It's just that your hosting won't do you any good if you don't do the marketing activities that are needed to draw people to your business. It also won't do you any good if you get a reputation for not being able to handle consumer needs because you're too busy concentrating on your hosting.

A must for your business

So if you're not too sure about what to do as far as your Internet presence goes, dedicated hosting is a good place to start. You can get all of the assistance that you need to ensure that everything goes smoothly. This means that you don't have to have technical expertise and you don't have to have knowledge of a lot of the technical turns. Your hosting company will explain things to you in ways that you can understand so that you know what it is you're getting. They will also not do anything drastic unless they let you know what it is they are doing, so you don't have to worry about some sort of unauthorized action being carried out.

If you're not on the Internet yet because you are not sure what it is you need to do, this is a great place to start. Once you figure out your hosting options, you can then work on getting a website built for your business. Many businesses find that they profit more on the Internet because they can reach a global audience. Reaching a global audience means global sales, if it is possible for your business. You'll notice a considerable difference in the amount of revenue that you bring in. What's great is that dedicated hosting does that for you.

So don't worry if you're a beginner or you know nothing about the world of Internet because you'll definitely catch on. You'll be able to learn as you go as someone else does the work. All you have to do is find a reliable company. Look at Internet reviews, talk to other businesses, and check out what businesses similar to you are using. Compare price plans and options. By doing this, you'll find the best dedicated hosting plan for you.

Is Reseller Hosting a Business Opportunity?

Is Reseller Hosting a Business Opportunity?

The World Wide Web has become a commodity in our life. People spent more than 12 hours per day on the internet; billions of dollars are transacted through the internet; internet sales are going up every year and etc. Therefore the idea of setting up web hosting companies to cater for this internet needs is more and more popular among entrepreneurs.


However a big cost will involve when you are setting up a web hosting company because that kind of business needs great computing resources and dedicated internet connections. Also other hosting facilities like power supply and air conditioning are all big cost for a business start up. For beginner entrepreneurs, they might not afford to have the initial cost or to cope with the risk. So if you are one of them reseller hosting is definitely your choice.

So what is reseller hosting? Basically reseller hosting account is a web hosting account that you can customize the hosting features and resell it to others. How reseller hosting works is you get a reseller hosting from other big web hosting company. The company has already set up properly a master control panel for you and you can easily control and customize the hosting features. For example you buy a reseller hosting with 50 Gbytes, then you divide it into 10 smaller hosting account with 5 Gbytes each account, you look for 10 customers and sell the service to them. You charge the 10 customers for the service and typically the total charges will be more than what you need to pay to the bigger hosting company. So the difference will be your profit.

Isn't it sounds easy? You get a reseller account and look for customers. You give them a customized web hosting and they pay you. You direct all the problems back to your reseller hosting company and you enjoy the money every month.

In fact it is true and false. It is true because the initial reseller hosting provider will prepare everything for you. They will get your reseller hosting account ready with program like web host manager in Hostgator. This kind of tool will allow you to create your customer accounts easily. After account is set up, your customer can instantly access to the hosting space and start administering their websites. Your customers will have their own control panel in their hosting and scripts. So basically it is almost an automated process.

However I said it is false because it will somehow involve minimal technical issues. If you are not really equipped with IT and web hosting knowledge, you either should get a book and start learning or opt out for the business. Although the business proposal sounds easy with the redirection of issues back to the initial providers, your customers eventually are still dealing with you. If you fail to give a solid support to your customers and the support of initial hosting does not come in time, customer will lose confidence on you. And also with the stiff competition in the industry it is a challenge to market your hosting services.

So now you roughly know the pro and con of reseller hosting business. It sounds more bitter than sweet. However the good news is stiff competition always means good money behind. If you survive the war lucrative income is not difficult at all. So if you are doing some serious planning on reseller hosting business, a suggestion is that you should always choose a quality web hosting as your provider. Because if the hosting has good quality you will save a lot of headache in dealing with downtime and other critical technical issues; if their support are great then you can rely on them to solve your customers' issues; if their hosting features and scripting are sufficient it gains plus point for your products. Basically if you get a quality reseller hosting, your web hosting company has a quality service too.
