Remember, in conjunction with a fitness programme you absolutely MUST pay attention to your diet. Without proper nutrition exercise is only about 20-30 percent effective. I just love the following site for their nutritional fitness information...

Healthy is Wealthy: Nutritional Fitness is important to consider in combination with your regular exercise. You can safely add nutritional dietary supplementation to limit the loss of muscle mass and function, maintain bone health by reducing calcium loss and help reduce the acid production that may accompany protein intake, at Healthy Is Wealthy!

The link is to a page in the site that I found very interesting.
