Actionable Advice: Combat Scalping:** Keep prices fair and offer free packs or affordable options for young collectors. Diversify Inventory:** Stock popular lines like Pokémon, Magic, and sports cards, but also introduce niche or international games (e.g., Azuki from Japan). Educate New Collectors:** Host "how-to" sessions or beginner nights to help newcomers learn the ropes. Expert Tip:   Use online platforms like Whatnot to reach a broader audience and move high-value inventory, but keep your in-store experience welcoming and inclusive. 6.

Membership Tiers:** Offer monthly memberships with perks like free hours, discounts, and exclusive access. Event Packages:** Birthday party packages ($299 for two hours) make the space accessible for special occasions. Expert Tip:   Regularly review your pricing to ensure it remains competitive and accessible, especially for families and young gamers. 8. Partnering with Local Businesses  Key Insight:   Collaboration with nearby businesses (like Papa John's for pizza) enhances the customer experience and strengthens community ties. Actionable Advice: Cross-Promote:** Work with local restaurants, shops, and service providers to offer bundled deals or special promotions. Support Each Other:** Refer your customers to neighboring businesses and vice versa. Expert Tip:   Joint events (e.g., pizza and gaming nights) can draw larger crowds and introduce your business to new audiences. 9. Leveraging Online Platforms for Growth  Key Insight:   Run It Back uses platforms like Whatnot, Instagram, Facebook, and Discord to build its brand and connect with customers. Actionable Advice: Sell Online:** Use auction sites to reach collectors beyond your local area. Stay Active on Social Media:** Share updates, event announcements, and behind-the-scenes content to keep your community engaged. Build a Discord Server:** Foster ongoing conversation and community among your most dedicated fans. Expert Tip:   Your website should be more than a digital business card—include inventory updates, event sign-ups, and community resources. 10. Continuous Improvement and Community Feedback  Key Insight:   Bill and Tony are committed to evolving their offerings based on customer feedback and community needs. Actionable Advice: Solicit Feedback:** Regularly ask customers what they'd like to see—new games, events, or amenities.

Summer can either become the season where you feel your healthiest, most energized, and most consistent… or the season where all your routines completely disappear. The longer days, vacations, cookouts, late nights, and changing schedules can throw you off track fast, especially if you rely on strict routines to stay healthy. But here's the good news: summer can actually be one of the easiest seasons to support your health goals when you focus on the right habits. So in today's Fit Tip Friday, we are keeping it simple. No complicated meal plans. No extreme workout routines. No “starting over on Monday” mentality. Instead, we're talking about the big dial movers, the simple habits that have the biggest impact on your energy, your eating habits, your movement, and your consistency all summer long. Because staying healthy during summer should not feel exhausting. In fact, the simpler you make it, the easier it becomes to stay consistent. Today, I'm sharing three simple summer habits that will help you eat healthier without overthinking it, move your body more naturally, and avoid getting to the fall feeling like you have to start all over again. And I'd love to hear from you too. What's one habit or routine that helps you feel your best during the summer months?

Ep 123: What good is retirement if your body won't let you enjoy it? In this episode of The Retirement Success in Maine Podcast, we sit down with Travis Deabay, founder of Deabay Physical Therapy, to discuss how physical therapy can help retirees stay active, independent, and doing the things they love most. From chronic back pain and arthritis to balance issues, mobility limitations, and recovery after surgery, Travis explains how movement-based care can improve quality of life far beyond traditional rehab. We also explore why many aches and pains are connected to the way we move every day—and how proactive treatment can prevent bigger problems later on.

Strength after 40 is not optional. It is necessary. The body changes with age, but the right training keeps it capable, strong, and resilient.Welcome to the Happy, Healthy, Strong Podcast — hosted by Adam Lane. This show looks at what sustainable health really means through supportive nutrition, intentional movement, and habits that build strength without extremes.Episode HighlightsIn this episode, Adam Lane and Coach Sam Libby explain how functional strength training supports adults in their 40s and 50s by maintaining muscle mass, improving bone density, and strengthening movements used in everyday life.

Many people consider retirement a time when you no longer have the responsibility of working and you focus on spending your time on things like hobbies, travel and time with the family. As much as this can be true for some people, a lot of people still consider working after retirement age for many reasons. If you still actively work after "Retirement", it is very important to make your heath and wellness a priority. In This Episode You Will Learn: 1). Why we labeled this episode as staying active during your work day in "Retirement" and how many people still actively work after hitting their retirement age. 2). Why it can be difficult to take care of your body especially after a long work day as you age into your retirement years. 3). How making sure to take consistent breaks during your day and using that time to rest and recharge will keep your mind and body healthier as you progress through your day. 4). The importance of creating a workspace or environment around you that helps promote your physical and mental wellness. 5). Why it's always best to take time out of your day even if it's only 5 minutes to tend to your physical well being by stretching or exercising. /// We hope the tips and suggestions in this episode are helpful to you or someone you know who is still actively working after their designated retirement age. Making sure you keep your physical, mental and emotional self a priority while staying in the workforce can definitely keep you prepared for what you ask of your body for many years to come.

Hey friend! It's the holiday season, and if you feel like you're being pulled in a hundred different directions—and your workouts are the first thing to go—you are so not alone. This time of year gets busy fast, but staying active doesn't have to be stressful or impossible. Today I'm sharing simple strategies to help you fit movement into your holiday schedule so you can stay energized, feel good, and keep your health a priority. Let's dive in! And if you haven't joined us yet, come hang out in the Lose Weight Live Free Facebook community—or connect with me directly at taraj@dietditching.com.

Chronic pain affects over 50 million U.S. adults, but research shows that pain resilience — your ability to adapt and stay active despite discomfort — matters more than pain severity itself Pain resilience acts as a mental shock absorber, helping people maintain physical activity even with significant pain, while fear of movement has weaker influence when resilience is present Five components define pain resilience. These are emotional self-regulation, psychological flexibility, self-care behaviors, religion and spirituality, and internal strengths like optimism, persistence, and problem-solving skills Building resilience requires practical daily habits, including consuming healthy carbohydrates for energy, training your brain toward optimism through reframing challenges, and learning new skills or hobbies Physical activity and quality sleep strengthen resilience. Walking around 8,000 steps daily improves metabolic health and pain management, while good sleep helps you handle stress

The holidays get messy with travel, family gatherings, unpredictable schedules, food everywhere, and the kind of days where your normal routine doesn't stand a chance. Ryann, Kelly, and Kelsey talk about how to navigate movement during the busiest time of year without slipping into all-or-nothing thinking. They cover how to reframe "imperfect" workouts, ways to move during long travel days, what to pack (and when you don't need anything at all), how to set boundaries around your training, how to avoid guilt-driven exercise, and why one week of chaos and inconcistency won't erase your progress. If you want to feel good, stay grounded, and keep movement in your life even when everything else is wild, this one's for you.

"How can virtual rehab bring physical activity to more COPD patients?" In this second part of the episode, Dr. Olli Tikkanen speaks with David Mannino, MD, respiratory therapist Jonnie Korinko, and COPD patient advocate Phyllis DiLorenzo to explore the benefits and challenges of virtual pulmonary rehabilitation. Mannino, MD discusses the accessibility issues many COPD patients face with in-person rehab programs and how virtual options can bridge the gap. Jonnie Korinko emphasizes the importance of flexibility in treatment, as virtual programs allow patients in rural areas to engage in physical activity without traveling long distances. Phyllis DiLorenzo shares her positive experiences with virtual rehab, highlighting the community and support she's found through online programs and peer connections. The discussion also covers the importance of medication adherence, peer support, and how digital tools can help COPD patients maintain their exercise routines outside of formal rehab programs. The episode provides valuable insights for those interested in the future of telemedicine and how virtual pulmonary rehabilitation can enhance the quality of life for COPD patients. ______________   This podcast episode is sponsored by Fibion Inc. | Better Sleep, Sedentary Behavior and Physical Activity Research with Less Hassle --- Collect, store and manage SB and PA data easily and remotely - Discover ground-breaking Fibion SENS. --- SB and PA measurements, analysis, and feedback made easy - Learn more about Fibion Research. --- Learn more about Fibion Sleep and Fibion Circadian Rhythm Solutions. --- Fibion Kids - Activity tracking designed for children. --- Explore our Wearables,  Experience sampling method (ESM), Sleep,  Heart rate variability (HRV), Sedentary Behavior and Physical Activity article collections for insights on related articles. --- Refer to our article "Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior Measurements" for an exploration of active and sedentary lifestyle assessment methods. --- Learn about actigraphy in our guide: Exploring Actigraphy in Scientific Research: A Comprehensive Guide. --- Gain foundational ESM insights with "Introduction to Experience Sampling Method (ESM)" for a comprehensive overview. --- Explore accelerometer use in health research with our article "Measuring Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior with Accelerometers ". --- For an introduction to the fundamental aspects of HRV, consider revisiting our Ultimate Guide to Heart Rate Variability. --- Follow the podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/PA_Researcher  Follow host Dr Olli Tikkanen on Twitter https://twitter.com/ollitikkanen  Follow Fibion on Twitter https://twitter.com/fibion  Check us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@PA_Researcher 

Leave Health Bite a Feedback.Click This Link.What if I told you that just 7 minutes of movement per day could extend your lifespan? Or that exercising only on weekends provides nearly the same health benefits as daily workouts?You're not alone if this sounds too good to be true—many high-achieving professionals have been conditioned to believe that exercise requires marathon sessions at the gym or it's not worth doing at all.Join Dr. Adrienne Youdim as she breaks down the biggest myths about movement and reveals how even small, bite-sized amounts of activity can transform your physical health, mental clarity, and professional performance.Don't forget to share this episode with friends and colleagues who might benefit from understanding that their body doesn't just need movement—it craves it!What You'll Learn From This Episode:Separate exercise from weight loss expectations: Discover why exercise and weight loss need to "get a divorce" and how this misconception causes people to abandon movement altogether.Master the art of "exercise snacking": Explore how 30-second to 5-minute bursts of activity throughout your day can improve cardiovascular function, muscle strength, and blood sugar levels.Embrace the weekend warrior approach: Find out how exercising only on weekends can provide nearly the same health benefits as daily exercise, including 20% reduction in high blood pressure and 40% reduction in diabetes risk.Implement movement into your busy schedule: Discover practical ways to incorporate activity through dancing to one song, taking stairs, or doing desk exercises that counter sedentary behavior."Your body wants you to succeed. Your body is going to work with whatever you give it.

In Day 4 of the Shift with CJ podcast, CJ shares practical and realistic health strategies that anyone can implement—no matter how “lazy” you feel. This episode covers how to stay active throughout the day without needing a gym, and how to master portion control without ever counting a single calorie. If you're ready to make weight loss and energy management effortless, this is your blueprint.What You'll Learn:The Lazy Person's Fitness Hack: Foundational Movement CJ introduces four key movement patterns—hinge, pull, push, and lunge—that mimic daily life activities like lifting groceries or walking up stairs. These compound exercises not only improve balance, coordination, and muscle tone, but also burn more calories in less time.Portion Control Without Math Forget calorie tracking. CJ explains the psychological effect of plate size on your appetite (the Delboeuf effect), and why a 9-inch plate could help reduce calorie intake by up to 22%. It's about eating intuitively—stopping when satisfied, not stuffed.The Hidden Danger of Sitting CJ reveals how prolonged sitting reduces fat-burning enzymes by up to 90%. Even if you work out, too much sitting can reverse those benefits. That's why CJ pushes for hourly stretch breaks to get blood flowing, fire up your metabolism, and boost mental focus.Key Takeaways:Foundational movement saves time and maximizes impact. Focus on quality over quantity when doing exercises like deadlifts, rows, lunges, and push-ups.Portion control is about visual cues, not calorie counting. Downsizing your plate resets your mind's perception of fullness.Stretching is metabolism maintenance. Short breaks every hour can undo the metabolic damage caused by prolonged sitting.Small changes lead to big results. It's not about perfection. It's about momentum and consistent wins each day.Movement boosts energy. Breaking up sedentary time doesn't just burn fat—it increases focus, productivity, and mood.5 Things You Can Start Doing Today:Switch to a 9-inch plate for your meals. You'll naturally eat less without even noticing it.Add hinge, pull, push, and lunge exercises to your routine. Start slow, with good form, and track how you feel after each session.Set a timer to stretch every hour. A 5-minute break can include torso twists, neck stretches, or squats.Observe your fullness cues. Eat until you're satisfied, not full. Give yourself 20 minutes before reaching for more food.Write or record a quick voice note after meals and workouts. Build self-awareness by tracking how your body feels and reacts.Final Thought: You don't need to overhaul your entire life to start feeling better. You just need to eat a little smarter and move a little more—consistently. That's how change begins.

“He didn't say he wanted to die. He said he didn't give an F about dying. That's different.” — Victoria Camille. In this powerful and deeply sobering episode of the Detroit is Different podcast, host Khary Frazier sits down with Victoria Camille of the Coalition for Police Transparency and Accountability (CPTA) to examine the disturbing details surrounding the July 12, 2024, shooting death of Sherman Lee Butler. “Nothing about this looks like self-defense to me.” — Khary Frazier. Sherman Butler was killed during an eviction at his apartment on Manderson St., near Palmer Park in Detroit. He was tased by Detroit Police officers and then fatally shot by a Wayne County Bailiff—while recovering from foot surgery and experiencing mental distress. “We all have a story. Show compassion. Sherman deserved to live.” — Victoria Camille What You'll Learn in This Episode: Detailed Analysis of the Footage: Victoria Camille and Khary Frazier analyze the DPD-released bodycam footage, breaking down how the incident escalated—despite clear protocol violations. Critical Facts Revealed: The bailiff used a DPD-issued radio improperly. DPD officers did not follow policy requiring them to control the scene. Mental health teams were called but failed to respond promptly. Tasers were used on a person visibly in mental and physical distress—against DPD policy. A DPD officer read the eviction notice, an act outside of their scope. “Nothing about this looks like self-defense to me.” — Khary Frazier “This wasn't just a policy failure; it was a moral one.” — Victoria Camille After Months of Advocacy: The community organized protests, FOIA requests (led by Taura Brown), and weekly meetings demanding transparency. On December 23, 2024, a partial video was finally released. Victoria Camille's Op-Ed led to a formal Citizen Complaint, triggering a deeper investigation by the Board of Police Commissioners' Office of the Chief Investigator. Policy Violations Found: At least 10 DPD policy violations identified by the OCI. Mental health co-response teams were eating at McDonald's while the call was active. The bailiff continued to conduct evictions after the shooting. What the Community Demands: Accountability from DPD, Wayne County Prosecutor, and the media. Clarity on reforms for Bailiffs and Officers. Passage of the Video Release Ordinance by MLK Day 2026—requiring release of all use-of-force videos within 7-37 days. Stay Informed. Stay Active.

I'll walk you through the exact habits I recommend to my clients during the summer, like setting 3 simple non-negotiables (for example: drinking 3 liters of water, getting 7,000 steps, and hitting 20–25g of protein at breakfast).You'll also hear how I personally handle things like alcohol, travel, and “off-track” meals—with flexibility, not guilt. Because summer should feel fun, not like a constant test of willpower.Here's what I cover:The mindset shift that helps you stop “starting over” every Monday or every SeptemberHow to use the “most days rule” to stay on track without obsessingWhat to do instead of tracking everything while on holidayHow one client planned her alcohol intake—without cutting it out completelyIf you're tired of the all-or-nothing mindset and want to stay consistent without giving up gelato or BBQs, this episode is for you.

Staying Warm While Working Outdoors in the Cold | Episode 340 Working outdoors in cold weather can be challenging, but with the right preparation and gear, you can stay warm and safe. In this episode, we're tackling the essentials of staying warm while working in harsh winter conditions, from layering techniques to choosing the right gear. Understanding the Risks of Cold Exposure Cold exposure can lead to serious health issues like hypothermia, frostbite, and cold stress. Recognizing early warning signs, such as numbness, shivering, or loss of dexterity, is crucial. Stay proactive to avoid these dangers. Mastering the Art of Layering Layering is the foundation of cold-weather survival. Base Layer: Wear moisture-wicking materials like merino wool or synthetic fabrics to keep sweat off your skin. Insulating Layer: Opt for fleece, wool, or down to trap body heat. Outer Layer: A waterproof and windproof shell protects you from wind chill and precipitation. Gear to Keep You Warm Gloves and Mittens: Choose gloves for dexterity and mittens for maximum warmth. Heated options are great for extreme cold. Insulated Boots: Pair waterproof boots with wool socks for warmth and dryness. Head and Face Protection: Beanies, balaclavas, and face masks help retain heat and protect against frostbite. Heated Clothing: Invest in battery-powered gear like gloves or jackets for prolonged warmth. Stay Active and Prepared Pace Yourself: Avoid sweating too much by managing your activity level. Overexertion leads to damp clothing, which can make you colder. Take Warm-Up Breaks: Have a sheltered area or vehicle nearby for quick warming sessions. Carry Essentials: Keep extra layers, hand warmers, and emergency gear on hand. Staying warm while working outdoors isn't just about comfort—it's about safety and efficiency. With proper preparation, you can work smarter, stay productive, and thrive even in the coldest conditions. Tune in to learn more!

➢ DM “BLACK FRIDAY” LAST CHANCE TO IG @ COLOSSUSFITSummary of episode:With Thanksgiving coming up, it's typically the beginning of most peoples fitness downhill journey. Listen to thee tips and don't be the person that consistently struggles.Listed points:(02:35) 1- Set Realistic GoalsRather than aiming for significant weight loss, focus on maintaining your current weight or setting a modest goal (like losing 1-2 pounds a month).This way, you avoid the “all or nothing” mindset that can lead to overindulgence if you slip up.(05:42) 2- Plan Ahead for EventsBefore holiday gatherings, eat a small, balanced snack with protein, fiber, and healthy fat, like Greek yogurt with nuts or a small handful of veggies with hummus. This can prevent overeating once you're there.Choose one or two treats you're really excited about and savor them instead of sampling everything.(09:14) 3- Be Strategic with PortionsTry using a smaller plate, and aim to fill half with vegetables or a salad before adding protein and sides. You'll get a balanced, satisfying meal without going overboard.Focus on eating until you're satisfied, not stuffed, and keep portions of high-calorie foods moderate.(09:58) 4- SEPARATION SEASON! It's a holiday, not holi-month.(10:43) 5- Stay Active, Even in Small WaysMaintain your usual workout routine, even if you have to shorten sessions. Regular activity will help with weight management and keep you feeling good.If formal exercise isn't an option, try short walks after meals, take the stairs, or do bodyweight exercises at home.(11:41) 6- Practice Saying “No” GentlyHoliday gatherings often come with pressure to eat, but it's okay to politely say “No, thank you” if you're not hungry or not interested. People will respect your choices.(12:59) 7- Limit Mindless SnackingTry to eat meals without distractions (like your phone or TV) and take the time to chew and savor each bite.Enjoy your favorite treats but try the “three-bite rule” — take three mindful bites to get the flavor and experience, then step away if you're feeling satisfied.Alternatively, split a dessert with a friend or family member to avoid overindulging.Thanks for listening!
