Health and Diet
Holiday eating can mean special foods and treats -- and high-calorie choices. With a little planning, you can enjoy the fun foods of the holidays without all the extra calories. This holiday season, decide which foods hold special meaning for you, which foods you love the most and which foods you cannot live without. Once you have decided, skip the least favorite and focus on smaller portions of the higher-calorie favorites.
Fitness
Save your bones by building your muscles. Take the squat for example. If you have a healthy back and knees, the squat is among the best exercises for strength, mass, sports performance, and even long-term health. The heavy loads build muscle size and strength, along with bone density, and thicker bones will serve you well when you finally leave middle age and enter your golden years
