Intermountain’s LiVE Campaign
Considering your web site devoted to Parkour, you and your fellow traceurs may be interested in an exciting new video. It’s a new public service announcement for Intermountain’s LiVE campaign, which reaches out to parents and children about the importance of increasing physical activity and adopting healthier eating habits to prevent obesity. In a scene familiar to millions of American households, a couch-bound teenage boy appears totally absorbed by television. But when the teenager’s mother asks him to retrieve a laundry basket, a simple request turns into a Parkour tour-de-force.
The teenager quickly dons a helmet, jumps out a window and speeds his way around an urban neighborhood. Deftly performing rapid hand springs, side twists and back flips, he literally tumbles and races back home to retrieve the laundry basket. When his mother asks him to also turn down the television, the teen responds by – once again – jumping out the window.
“It doesn’t matter how you’re active,” a narrator explains in the last part of the video. “Just be active.”
The new LiVE video has been posted on YouTube.com at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2o1hWfOflM.
Please let me know of you have any interest in the video and the LiVE campaign.
Sincerely,
Liz

Work Hard, Play Hard in Central Oregon
People from Central Oregon work hard and play hard – outside. Living here for almost 11 years, I have adapted this mantra myself, participating in outdoor sports such as rock climbing, mountain biking, trail running, hiking, and even outdoor yoga classes.
After receiving my BodyPost Active wear a few weeks ago, I have been wearing the yoga clothes and athletic shorts while rock climbing and trail running, and I am very impressed. In fact I was surprised to see that the Women Leisure Loose Yoga Pants worked perfectly as I was rock climbing down by the Deschutes River.
During the same week, I tried the Women HyBreez Spandex Versatile Athletic Shorts while trail running and found that the HyBreez fabric did, in fact, keep me cool and dry through the entire duration of the. On a final note, as a serious female athlete, who loves the outdoors, I have found BodyPost active wear to be comfortable and durable and I look forward to my next shipment.
It is all about the right choice
When you are involved in strenuous activities it is better to don proper workout outfits. For all the women who are sports buffs, a sports bra plays an important role. Here are few tips that can help you in selecting the right one for you.
Choose the right style.
Keep that in mind these outfits are designed for support and comfort. It is necessary for you choose the perfect size and style of the bra. Go for one, which is made up of material which makes you feel cozy
Know your sports
Today, we have different styles of these workout outfits. You should choose one, which suits the nature of your sport. For example, if you are into jumping or running then it is best to pick one, which provides you full support and maximum coziness.
Buy it from the specialist
Unlike the typical bras, it’s best that you buy your sports bra from a known brand. As these people put in a lot of effort in order to provide the best possible end products to you.
What are workout outfits all about
No matter what your workout formula is, selecting the type of clothes can help in augmenting your conditioning sessions. A workout outfit needs to be comfortable whilst exercising. These outfits are very attractive and make you look great. However, going by the look is not at all sensible. The workout outfits should also be functional and efficient. One should purchase these apparels keeping in view their requirements
The materials used in workout attire should be a major consideration. You should go for that fabric that is able to move moisture away from your skin, allow for your skin to breathe and promote mobility. This is especially important if you do any high impact workout such as running or a kick boxing class.
Yoga is one of the most practiced workout routines. Perfect yoga clothes let you perform all the yoga exercises comfortably by keeping you dry, supported and relaxed. On the other hand, wrong yoga clothes can cause chafing, binding or pinching. These comfortable and stylish yoga clothes motivate people to adopt active lifestyles.
Personal reinforcement can come about only if the workout is done with gross relaxation of body and mind and these revamped clothes ensure that for you. So, try out these sporty apparels to gain more from your exercise regime.
Play it safe with bike shorts
When it comes to cardiovascular workout for you, nothing can beat cycling. It enables you to flex your muscles to a great extent with minimal impact on your joints. However, your safe bike ride can take a wrong turn if you are not equipped with the right kind of gear. Improper clothes can affect you adversely. For instance, a baggy jacket can create wind resistance, open toed shoes can invite injuries, heavy shirt can hold in sweat, loose pants can catch in the bicycle chain, etc
Bike shorts improve one’s cycling experience by increasing the comfort on a bicycle. These shorts help you gain more from your workout. Mostly, all the bike shorts are made up of Lycra, which is a breathable, lightweight material and wicks sweat away from your skin and maintain your body temperature. Another plus of these shorts is that it keeps your skin tight this minimizes wind resistance. Appropriate clothing will always enable you to play it safe. Regardless of your exclusivity, you will be able to find the bike shorts can completely define your style and shape your comfort. So invest your time in surveying a few different shops to get best deal
Importance of yoga clothes
Does it matter what clothes you slip into while practicing yoga? Well of course it does. Yoga exercises are about cerebrum revitalization, so why not go for the whole hog and have something that comforts your body. There is no compulsory dress code for practicing yoga. However, it is always better to wear something that lets you gain more from your exercise regimen. Yoga clothes should provide you with “easy locomotion zone”. This free motion of the body is necessary for all those different types of yoga moves, which entail twists, turns and stretching
Choosing the right workout outfit is very important. Your choice could vary depending to the extent of perspiration. A proper workout outfit confines you in warm protective layer which wicks sweat off from your skin and help your body maintain the right temperature. Always try to choose yoga clothes with a material which suits you.
If you choose something stiff or tight then it can affect your level of concentration due to stress and discomfort. These outfits are wearable in your day to day life as they are pretty stylish. Remember that the yoga clothing that you choose reflects your personality and in order to feel self confident and reassured you need to pick them carefully
Get most out of your workout through an active wear
Exercising is imperative when it comes to staying fit, both physically and mentally. However, when you work out, you feel the need of a perfect fitness clothing or active wear, which gives you the complete comfort. One might call into question the need for these outfits? The reason is quite apparent. These clothes are engineered in such a way that you can gain the most out of whatever physical activities you are involved in.
A fitness wear definitely adds on to your style quotient. However, apart from the color and design, you should look into the material, the quality and the technology used in making the sportswear. Pure cotton is good and comfortable but this fabric is not much durable. Nylon and Lycra are also good choices. Nylon dries faster hence, prevent chaffing and Lycra moves along with your body providing you the complete body movement. An active wear actually propels you towards fitness by making you feel good about yourself. With these tips in mind, make sure that the next time you work out, your clothes are neither too loose nor too fitted because it might hamper the quality of your workout.

This week, I spent some time with my good friend and owner of Bikram Yoga College of India St. Augustine (bikramyogastaug.com) in Northeast Florida, Kate ViVenzio Toy, to try on some BODYPOST athletic wear and chat about yoga. Kate’s studio is dubbed “the Hottest Yoga in the Oldest City in the Nation.” For those of you unfamiliar with this type of yoga, Bikram Yoga is a series of 26 postures and two breathing exercises geared toward everyone from the first-timer to the seasoned veteran.
I met up with Kate at her studio and had her try out the BODYPOST Women’s HyBreez Athletic Generator Long Pants in Black Lava and Lilac, as well as the BODYPOST HyBreez Fitness Yoga Women’s Bra in Ice Blue. Right away, her students and teachers at the studio commented on how slim Kate looked in her new trendy workout clothes. So we headed into the classroom where a bunch of her students were preparing for the afternoon class.
Kate’s not only the director and owner of Bikram Yoga College of India St. Augustine, she’s also a teacher – certified in June of ’03 and recertified in November of ’08. Here are a few photos of Kate trying out her new sports wear with standing bow and tree pose. People like Kate practice yoga for a variety of different reasons: to develop strength, balance, flexibility, coordination, concentration, endurance, to manage weight loss and stress management, and improve circulation. While self-discipline is key, having the right workout clothes like BODYPOST is a close second.
“These HyBreez Athletic Generator Long Pants are great for yoga or even just running around town,” Kate says about her new performance wear. “Super flattering cut – slimming in all the right spots – with cute wide legs at the bottom that look great barefoot of with sneakers. Plus, the little pockets are great for a key or credit card if you are just running an errand.”
