    Food questions

    Don't laugh. I've been busy doing my own thing for years and missed this whole clean eating approach. It doesn't mean washing your fruits and vegs when you get them home from the supermarket does it? Seriously, I understand generally that it means avoiding processed foods and if possible...

    More on Netflix

    I heard they were slowing down recirculating your next picks if you were viewing movies you received fast. We had the same problem. Tracked it, talked to other people. Irritating.

    Caffeine Trauma

    Eeek. This is the worst part of reading health study alerts, since they're on every news page from Google to BBC. Lewis Black did this great bit during one comedy performance... "First they tell you that coffee is bad. Then they say, 'No, coffee is GOOD." Then it was, 'Eggs are bad.' Then...

    Thanks! I'll try all those things. I have been using the StairMaster first, and I'll bet that was too much.

    creaky knees

    Sometimes after doing the Power Max workout, my knees creak for the next day walking up and down stairs. I guessed it is a sign of tightness and am working on more stretching afterwards. Should I be worried about it? Thanks Les
