		<description><![CDATA[Back to the FDC meals. If you were to eat those three meals in one day, this is what your day would look like:
<strong>Total calories: 6,297</strong>. If you are a 335 pound male, that's probably okay. It's also okay if you are a 140 lb woman and are splitting this with 2 friends. 
<strong>Total sodium: 11,252 mg</strong>! In fact let's call it 11 g. That's almost enough sodium for 5 people! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you've ever wondered whether you should do some sort of warmup before a day of skiing, I can provide a simple answer for you:  Yes.  What you should do is a bit more of a challenge.  To help with this, I have created a video that shows a set of 9 activation exercises and dynamic stretches that will help to prepare your body for the ski day ahead. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I believe there is a significant link between asymmetries and previous injury as risk factors.  When people return to play from an injury it is usually after being told by their doctor or physical therapist that they are "as strong as they were before they got injured".  But unless the injury was a contact injury, that initial injury occurred because there was a weakness or asymmetry somewhere, so getting back to pre-injury level is not enough.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For many, shoveling is the big frustration.  It's hard work if you have a big driveway.  I'm not sure if this is a surprise to anyone, but emergency rooms fill up after big snow falls.  Okay, I’m sure that doesn't surprise anyone.  Many of the visits are from falling injuries - slippery sidewalks, ski or snowboard tumbles, and of course toboggan injuries.  But did you know there is also an increase in cardiac incidents? It turns out that shoveling is both frustrating and dangerous.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Like a massage, foam rolling is based on the concept of addressing trigger points in your muscles that can interfere with the muscles ability to relax and lengthen.   It is a great option for anyone who consistently has tight muscles.  If you are a runner or any athlete involved in running sports, I am going to venture a guess that you will want to roll your IT bands (the outside of your thigh) and gluteals. If you are a runner or any athlete involved in running sports, I am going to venture a guess that you will find these trigger points your IT bands (the outside of your thigh) and gluteals.  Skiers and hockey players will likely feel it most in their adductors, gluteals and quads.  Office workers?]]></description>

I suspect most of you are not those people either. One of the best lessons I have learned is how to judge junk, or the Four Laws of Junk Food Efficiency.
