Hey Will, that sounds like a great routine you have going there! I've been meaning to get into yoga, and now you have inspired me to start! Oh, and yes, MUni (Mountain unicycling) and extreme unicycling in general, is an amazing core strengthening sport! It will also give you legs of steel, a super fit cardiovascular system, and guarantee you LOTS of comments (mostly positive haha) from onlookers!

Hi Terry: Man, your core strength must be off the charts!! Now that you have made me feel hopelessly inadequate, here’s what I do. Ride the stationary bike for 15 minutes and do 100 situps in the morning, an hour or more of Yoga in the evenings. All to get me ready for teaching skiing again this year! As someone who has been rebuilding for many years, and with chronic back issues developing as a result of that, I have found that the yoga has been invaluable in greatly mitigating my discomfort and almost making it go away. I would recommend it to most anyone, regardless of their age.

What do you do to keep fit? Happy Thanksgiving all! As we all know, Piano tuning is a mostly sedentary occupation...or "art" as many of us would describe it! So I was wondering what you all do to help keep those "spare tires" and "love handles" under control. Also, since we just had Thanksgiving, and for those who DON'T currently have a regular exercise routine, this would be a perfect time to start! To kick things off, let me show you what I do to keep in shape; it's rather unusual, but it has become an integral part of my daily life, and it's by far the most efficient, and effective way I've ever found for getting and staying fit. Oh, and the other big perk is, it's FUN! I've made more than 200 of these, but here's a couple of my most recent. You can see many more by clicking my website link under my sig.
