GarageSale Basic 1.4-Basic version of the eBay ad-tracking tool

eBay has been one of the Internet's big success stories and is still going strong today. GarageSale is an application to track and monitor ads on eBay and GarageSale Basic is a simpler version of it.

There can be few better tools for posting and tracking items on eBay than GarageSale either. Like its bigger brother, GarageSale Basic is beautifully presented, easy to use, and brings all of your bids and items under one convenient umbrella. It's certainly preferable to the time consuming process of posting things via eBay itself.

However, GarageSale Basic it is significantly limited in functionality compared to the main version. The only features common to both are Free Image Hosting, Auction Designs, iPhoto and Aperture integration, eBay attribute support, Coverflow and Spotlight. Everything else including Batch Editing, Variation Support and Financial Report generator are only available in the full version.

Since it's been designed specifically for Mac though, GarageSale Basic still features integration with iPhoto, meaning you can post pictures of items instantly. It would be nice to have seen Picasa support as well but hopefully that will be added in future releases. GarageSale Basic offers WYSIWYG text editing, free image hosting and comes with 140 free auction templates, as well as support for PayPal, Twitter and eBay Stores. The result is that you'll end up presenting more professional eBay ads and thus have a greater chance of selling your stuff.

The WYSIWYG interface is similar to iWeb, and creating an ad does feel like creating a web page. You can even edit and retouch images within GarageSale Basic, although the editing tool is quite limited. Like the main version, it would have been nice if it were possible to track items in iCal though since you have no way of monitoring auctions unless you've got GarageSale open.

Overall though, GarageSale Basic is an excellent application for eBay fans although if you like it, it's definitely worth upgrading to the full version.

LibreOffice 3.4.2 Final-A great open source alternative to Microsoft Office

LibreOffice is an all-in-one professional office productivity and management package for your PC.

In the same vein as other open source productivity suites like OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice boasts a comprehensive set of office management tools arguably on par with Microsoft Office itself. LibreOffice offers six different office management tools to meet your project management needs: Text Document, Spreadsheet, Presentation, Drawing, Database, and Formula.

Text Document is relatively synonymous with Microsoft Word, where Spreadsheet is like Excel. Presentation mirrors Microsoft's PowerPoint, and Database is similar to Access. Then you also have two additional programs in Drawing and Formula, which are an added bonus to the entire package. LibreOffice is compatible with Microsoft Office's document formats and also supports PDFs natively. It also has its own document format called Open Document.

Unfortunately, if you're unfamiliar with Microsoft Office products, this program might take a little additional time to get used to, particularly if you want to master some of its more advanced features. Regular Microsoft Office users will find LibreOffice's interface quite similar, however, and should pick up on how to use its various programs without too much difficulty.

A great alternative to Microsoft Office, LibreOffice is a must-try for managing your various office projects.

Google Chrome Stable 13.0.782.107-Google's super fast web browser

Google Chrome is a Mac web browser that lets you surf the web in comfort at high speeds.

The first thing we noticed about Google Chrome is that it's unbelievably lightweight. While Firefox was consuming anything from an average of 20-30% of a Mac's CPU, Chrome barely registered on the scale, occasionally touching 1%. For anyone plagued with Firefox memory leaks and crashes, this alone is surely going to be a compelling reason to give Chrome a go.

As you'd expect, Google Chrome also features tabbed browsing, which visually, is more attractive than Firefox which tends to cram them together somewhat. Extensions and bookmarking (including syncing across machines) are included, as is Adobe Flash.

Chrome for Mac only works on Intel Macs and you might find that some add-ons that you used with previous browsers aren't available for it yet. This is rapidly changing however and most popular add-ons are now available on Chrome.

Perhaps most importantly, Google Chrome is extremely quick. Surfing the Softonic site, page-loads took less then a second and all images were loaded very quickly. YouTube in particular loaded with lightening speed.

Overall, the handling of sites using JavaScript in particular is mightily impressive and this has been made even better with the implementation of a V8 Crankshaft. Its also nice to know that with Google Chrome, even if there is a problem with one of your tabs, that it won't crash the whole browser - just the tab itself. However, sandboxing of Flash still isn't available in the Mac version, even though it is on Windows.

The final version ensures that you'll be able to synchronize not only bookmarks across multiple computers, but also browser preferences - including themes, homepage and startup settings, web content settings, preferred languages, and even page zoom settings. Meanwhile, you can also enable each extension to work in incognito mode through the extensions manager.

With thousands of extensions, super fast browsing and all the intelligence and slickness you expect from a Google product, Chrome delivers an excellent browsing experience..

Plants vs. Zombies Game of the Year Edition 1.0.1-Use plants to defend your home from zombies

Just when you thought it wasn't possible to come up with any more variants on the zombie theme, up pops Plants vs. Zombies.

In Plants vs. Zombies you have to protect yourself from a "mob of fun-loving zombies" intent on invading your home. Your only defense is a collection of 49 lovingly-tendered, zombie-zapping plants. These are no ordinary plants though - they can use an array of weaponry from peashooters to cherry bombs to destroy the 26 types of zombies before they reach your front door.

The different zombies each have their own skills and abilities so each will require a different tactic to defeat them. Obstacles such as a setting sun (which make your flowers close up), flower-eating frogs and other hazards add to the drama. There are five game modes to choose from, namely Adventure, Mini-Games, Puzzle, Survival and Zen Garden. The range of zombies is truly impressive - from 'Bucketheads' to 'Bobsleigh' zombies that require a different plant to kill them off.

While each scenario is essentially all the same - stopping the zombies crossing the garden - there is enough variation between levels to make Plants vs. Zombies a really good laugh. Each level you win means you win a new arsenal of plants to play with and you can collect sunflower seeds as currency with which to buy more for particularly difficult levels.

Plants vs. Zombies is a Tower Defense-style game with plenty of character, humor and action, making it much more fun that it might sound at first.

RockMelt 0.9.62.313-The ultimate social browser

RockMelt is a social browser that integrates Facebook and Twitter, making them a part of your browser interface, not separate tabs.

Built on the open source Chromium project, RockMelt is unusual for a browser in that you have to log in to use it properly. It looks like Google Chrome with two slim sidebars. On the left is a Facebook bar with all your online friends, and on the right a notifications bar, that houses pop-ups for your Facebook wall, Twitter feed plus any RSS feeds you want. You cannot add email at the moment.

Clicking the Facebook or Twitter button opens a neat window for the appropriate feed. You can disconnect these window, and float them anywhere on your desktop. The same is true of chats on the left sidebar. Next to the address bar RockMelt has a Share button, allowing you to quickly post interesting links to Facebook or Twitter.

If you're a heavy Twitter and Facebook user, RockMelt will really suit you. It's fast, very well thought-out and the social integration is better than anything else available. It may be in Beta, but RockMelt looks and feels like a finished product already.

RockMelt is a genuinely excellent social browser, building on the already great Chrome to make a uniquely attractive and useful application. Essential.

ImageMagick 6.7.1-2-Convert and resize images using Terminal

ImageMagick is a set of UNIX tools that can be used to read, write, and manipulate images in almost any format including TIFF, JPEG, PNG, PDF, PhotoCD, and GIF.

The advantage of ImageMagick is that it can be used to create images dynamically, making it suitable for Web apps. In addition, you can resize, rotate, sharpen, color reduce and add special effects to an image with ImageMagick. However, ImageMagick is strictly for those familiar with the Terminal or command line as there is no GUI. You can only make changes to images using commands such as "$magick> convert rose.jpg rose.png".

For those familiar with programming languages, you can use C, C++, Perl, Java, PHP, Python, or Ruby to make changes. A high-quality 2D renderer is also included which provides SVG capabilities. If you are familiar with programming commands, then the range of actions possible with ImageMagick is truly impressive, including conversions, resizing, transparencies, animated GIFs and shape drawing. However, the lack of GUI will exclude most people from using it.

If you know your way around programming languages and need a powerful command line based tool, Image Magick is worth exploring.

Timeline 3D 3.2-Create your own stunning timeline of events

Timelines are an eye-catching way of illustrating the passage of time or a period of history. Timeline 3D is an excellent application that makes it easy to create your own timelines for any subject, whether it's family photos, a moment in history, or even to remind you of a series of meetings and work related events.

Timeline 3D makes the process very easy by enabling you to create interactive timelines that you can view on your Mac and even mobile devices such as iPhone, iPad, and Android phones. To navigate timelines, use the arrow keys or your Apple Remote.

You can add a wide range of multimedia including photos, videos and audio soundtracks and you can even integrate them with Apple Keynote presentations to really impress in meetings.

The results you can produce with Timeline 3D are very impressive. Like Keynote, it can turn the most mundane of presentations or timelines into something truly cinematic. However, it is rather inflexible on the type of calendar it uses - Timeline 3D only supports the Gregorian calendar and doesn't provide easy templates for timelines of say a couple of years, or days. Finally, exporting your timelines to QuickTime for use in Keynote is simple enough but takes a long time to compress.

Timeline 3D can create some stunning 3D timelines but needs some polishing to make it truly excellent application.

MacTubes 3.0.8-Player and downloader especially designed for YouTube

MacTubes is a handy YouTube video player and downloader that allows you to create playlists and download video files.

The program allows you to subscribe to video channels on YouTube and view them from your desktop with no need to actually visit the YouTube site itself. MacTubes can then search and download files directly onto your desktop. It can also allow you to create playlists based on what you've downloaded or what you've searched on. So just line up what you want to watch and let it all go on while you sit back and enjoy.

Searches in MacTubes are more or less the same as using the YouTube site, allowing you to view videos by keyword, theme and even the user who uploaded it. The disadvantage is that you can't see any of the comments without going to the YouTube site, which is one of the best aspects of YouTube anyway. The other big drawback is of course that it only works with YouTube - other major sites such as DailyMotion and Metacafe are completely ignored.

MacTubes is a really easy-to-use and handy YouTube searcher and downloader that will make sure your favorite YouTube clips remain in your hands.

Google Chrome Beta 13.0.782.109-Test the latest beta version of Google Chrome

The stable version of Google Chrome keeps on evolving and developing new features, which you can have a sneak peek at with Google Chrome Beta.

While keeping the same minimalist design and features (new tab page, download manager, incognito window and more) of the stable version, Google Chrome Beta provides you with the possibility to try out the latest tools before they're implemented in the stable version.

Of course, you should bear in mind that using a beta version means you may find the odd bug and have stability issues, but for the most adventurous users this is a small price to pay for being the first to try out new Google Chrome's features – and provide Google with early feedback about them.

If you feel like walking on the wild side, give Google Chrome Beta a try and you'll be able to test new features before anybody else.

Virtual DJ Free Home Edition 7.0.4-Destroy the dance floor with this MP3 mixing tool

Virtual DJ is a complete music mixing application for your desktop, allowing you to dump your vinyl turntables for a laptop. Looking like a classic DJ set-up, with a mixer and two decks, Virtual DJ will be instantly accessible to DJs and newcomers alike.

To get started, simply open your music library, and drag and drop files into the virtual decks. There's a BPM counter to help you judge transitions between tracks, and the visual wave display also helps to cue up your music. Setting sound levels, and altering the bass and treble are all really easy. If you don't want to worry about your transitions, press the auto mix button and let Virtual DJ do all the work for you. Be warned though, that the results are pretty mixed!

You can sample and loop tracks live, add effects, and there's a very natural-feeling scratch mode. For the adventurous, there's a lot you can add to your mixes with Virtual DJ. .

Support for recording your mixes is also available, which is a great way to learn, allowing you to analyze your mistakes and successes with the application. It also means you can record mixes for your friends too! Mixes can be recorded in MP3, burnt to CD or even streamed to internet radio. Virtual DJ can be set up to use two sound cards, if you have them.

Virtual DJ is accessible to beginners and packed with extra features. The downside of the software is that it sticks too much to what a physical DJ setup is - other programs offer four decks and more user-friendly interfaces - small knobs may be great for your fingers, but they're less use on a screen!

On the whole, Virtual DJ is a solid, traditional-looking application. You can showcase your very own mix without having to carry around expensive and bulky equipment.

Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) 3.4.2-Easily make copies of your hard drive

To safely backup your hard drive, you can create a clone of it, which you will synchronize and backup on another drive.

Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) is a completely free solution to create clones of your disks, so you never ever have to worry again about losing your data. The application features a simple interface, from where you select the drive or folders to backup and the target drive to save to. I've found that you'll have to make sure a local disk is connected to your Mac so the program can start up though.

With CCC you can schedule automatic backups, which saves you the hassle of taking care of the backups yourself. Just decide on what day of the week and time you want CCC to work and let the program do its job.

More knowledgeable users will also like being able to run pre and post-flight shell scripts, checking the list of items removed after a clone, and creating a disk image.

Once thing we've noticed though, is that some Mac OS X 10.5 users have complained of instability issues with CCC.

Despite these problems with Leopard, Carbon Copy Cloner is a very good program to clone and backup your drive, not to mention that it's free. Very much recommended.

Playback 1.7.9-Stream media from your Mac to PS3 or Xbox 360

Playback is an easy-to-use tool that allows you to share media on your Mac with any Playstation 3, Xbox 360 or other UPnP compatible device.

Playback integrates with major media applications such as iTunes, iPhoto, Aperture, Adobe Lightroom, Photobooth, EyeTV, and more, meaning all you have to do is select what you want to share. Playback also allows you to control the amount of data being transferred to your devices via a handy bandwidth throttle that ensures you can surf and transfer data at the same time comfortably.

Playback also prides itself on being particularly fast due to the nginx server. Nginx delivers high performance transfer rates, stability and simple configuration which is why its favored by sites such as WordPress, Hulu and SourceForge. Finally, another bonus is that Playback supports HD MKV files so no transcoding is required. However, some Matroska formats are not supported meaning that you have to sit through painfully long transcoding processes before playing certain media.

Overall, Playback is an excellent streaming app for Macs to PS3s and Xbox 360s. Combined with an application such as XBMC, it offers a superb home entertainment setup system.

Postbox 2.5.2-Gmail style mail client based on Thunderbird

Postbox is an intelligent, multi-language cross platform mail client that has clearly been inspired by Thunderbird.

Some say it's a little "too" inspired by Thunderbird but the developers have only basically taken the core code behind it and expanded on it to make what some consider to be a superior mail client. There's no doubt that Postbox features many useful tools that make organizing and tracking your e-mails very intuitive and version 2.0 has made it even better.

Features that particularly standout in Postbox are a slick, Apple Mail style interface, very fast searching for everything from messages to attachments, Gmail style conversation views, tabbed browsing of mail, categories and folders, to-do lists and integration with Address Book, iCal, iPhoto, Spotlight, and Quick Look. Postbox also works with third party apps such as OmniFocus and Things.

Setting-up Postbox is very straightforward. A wizard takes you through the entire import process and Postbox automatically determines connection settings for you. The great thing is Postbox is a lot simpler than Thunderbird and getting your webmail - such as Gmail or Yahoo e-mail onto your desktop - is extremely quick and painless. It can even retrieve your Facebook messages for you using a separate simple setup wizard. Once you've imported, Postbox works behind the scenes to catalog everything including every single bit of text, contact, address, link, picture, document and attachment. Within seconds, you should have a fully searchable and effectively backed-up copy of your e-mail on your hard drive.

Browsing images is a pleasure in Postbox and I liked the way you can scroll through every single image in your inbox in one go. Organizing your mail and work load using Postbox is refreshingly easy and reminds me of a more advanced version of Gmail. It does not however extract labels from Gmail which is a downside because it means reorganising your entire collection once again. You may also receive quite a bit of spam in Postbox because although it has it's own spam filter, it doesn't support more powerful solutions such as SpamSieve.

Postbox is one of the most intelligent e-mail clients you're likely to try on Mac. The latest version is better than ever although now that Outlook is available on Mac in Office 2011, it may have to improve even further to attract more users.

1Password 3.7.2-The ultimate password manager

Keychain on Mac does a pretty good job of managing passwords but once you've tried 1Password you'll probably never look back.

If you're tired of making up passwords to access sites or worried that your passwords are not secure enough, it really is invaluable. 1Password creates strong, unique passwords for you, then remembers and restores them all within your web browser. At first glance, you may be concerned by the potential security risks of having one program manage all your passwords, but the number of users that rely and praise this program illustrates that you have little to worry about.

Using 1Password is very simple. On startup you have to configure one master password, which should be as tough as possible. After that, 1Password detects when you are visiting sites that require passwords and stores them automatically. You can set up time locks so that your Mac is protected while you're away from it and even synchronize it with your iPhone, .Mac account and Palm devices, although it doesn't work with other mobile phones. If you encounter any problems, the developer is also widely praised for their swift response time although I had problems accessing some of their online tutorials.

1Password is a powerful and effective application to manage all your passwords from one place. Highly recommended to protect your identity on the web.

Google Chrome Portable 5 is the latest addition to Google Chrome’s stable, after months of beta testing. Besides the features we already knew from previous versions, such as the download manager, support for extensions and incognito browsing mode, the browser has included great new functions based on user feedback.

Speaking of HTML5, Google Chrome Portable also includes new functionality based on the technology, like support for geolocation APIs and file drag-and-drop. This means that you'll be able to find your location on Google Maps or drag-and-drop attached files onto Gmail messages, for example.

Google Chrome Portable maintains the same impressive usability and ease of use. With zero learning curve, you immediately feel in your element and there's no need to start testing new shortcuts or reading the documentation. So if you're considering making the switch from old favorites like Firefox Portable or Internet Explorer, Google Chrome Portable is definitely an excellent choice for a new web browser.

PCMedik 6.8.1.2011-Highly simplified PC optimization

As long as PC users keep looking for ways to make their computer faster, program developers are going to keep looking for ways to make it happen. PCMedik is the latest contender in the ring…

If simplicity is what you are looking for, then PCMedik is perfect. The program interface is simple in the extreme, with only one action and no configuration options. You pick your operating system and processor type, and hit GO. That's it! With the trial version of PCMedik, you can heal - the heal and boost option is for the paid version only.

When PCMedik is finished its scan, it doesn't show any results. In fact, you can only find out what it does to your computer by reading the help file, and even then, it's a fairly vague explanation. This lack of information and explanation won't bother everyone - in fact some users might actually appreciate it - but for most, PCMedik is a little vague.

PCMedik: what does it do and does it work? It's kind of hard to tell, but if you're looking for a very simple fix, it's perfect.

SuperRam 6.8.1.2011-Improve the RAM management on your PC

Taking control of your RAM is one way to free up resources as Windows can sometimes be very inefficient at managing it quickly.

However, it's also a very risky think to carry out as a third party application is effectively deciding what is better for your RAM management than Windows itself. The problem often is that initially, the RAM manager may make a noticeable difference to your machine but after a while, it simply can't hide the fact that you need to install more RAM in your system. SuperRam 5 doesn't do a bad job of increasing computer performance by freeing wasted memory and optimizing memory utilization your computer. Once installed, it doesn't require much setup apart from defining the threshold that you want it to start cleaning RAM. After that, it takes care of the job itself, flushing RAM when it reaches a certain tipping point. When it flushes, there can be a brief lag in your system performance but afterwards you will notice an improvement in performance. However, RAM is like a bottomless pit and the more you clean it out, the fuller it seems to get, especially when opening new applications. Eventually, you may find that the lags it creates when it flushes RAM are causing more problems than letting Windows do the job.

This program may solve your immediate RAM problems but over time, it can get tiresome and it's no substitute for upgrading your RAM.

Muso 1.3.21-A more flexible way to browse your music collection

It's difficult to define a program like Muso. It's not a player, nor a playlist manager. It's more like an alternative user interface to manage your music collection.

Once you've imported your music into Muso (either selecting individual folders on the hard drive, or your iTunes library), you'll be able to manage your collection in a much more flexible way. Muso lets you browse complete albums or individual songs, and also sort or filter music by artist, year, rating and other criteria.

Muso includes an advanced tagging system – even with support for mood tags –, as well as the ability to group albums under the same artist, even if the artist's name has slight spelling differences. The program includes album covers and information downloaded from Last.fm, Wikipedia and Amazon to display highly detailed pages about your favorite artists.

Like I said before, Muso is not a player in itself, but it can be linked to other third-party players like iTunes and Winamp. The link enables you to control the player from Muso's interface and also displays the song currently playing, but nothing else. There's a cool feature to generate random playlists, but Muso won't allow you to interact with them in any way – they'll just be added to your player.

Muso works great as an alternative interface to browse your music collection. Too bad it doesn't include playback features!

Google Chrome Beta 13.0.782.109-Try Chrome's latest features in this Beta version

Not long ago, Google joined the so called web browser battle with a neatly designed web browser which caused a total revolution. Nowadays Google Chrome keeps on evolving and developing new features, which you can have a sneak peek at with Google Chrome Beta.

How To Get Pregnant In Infertile Women

How To Get Pregnant

A woman’s fertility continued to decline with age. After age 35 a woman’s fertility declined more rapidly making it difficult to conceive. But there are several alternatives that can be done to get pregnant. What?

Various studies suggest that about 35 percent per month of pregnancy experienced by women between 18 and 25 years. Generally, at the age of 40 years of fertility decline about 5 percent per month. At age 40, women only have a fertility rate of 15 percent compared to women aged 25 years. The decline continues until it reaches a very low level (1 percent chance of pregnancy or less than 1 percent per month) at the age of 44 years.

There are many factors that affect fertility, including egg cells, the effects of uterine and age.

Alternative treatments for female infertility due to advanced age, as quoted by Epharmapedia, among others:

1. IVF (In vitro fertilization)

In general, fertility treatment for older women is focused on increasing the number of oocytes through the help of fertility drugs and reproductive technology such as In vitro fertilization (IVF). However, because low implantation rates (although egg production increased and normal fertilization), these treatments are not effective for women over the age of 41. Age is an important determinant of IVF success. Age-related decline in ovarian response.

2. Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD)

Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) can lower levels of spontaneous abortion in IVF cycles. However, this procedure is very expensive and its role in the treatment of age-related infertility has not been ascertained.

3. Donor eggs

Eggs from younger women tend to result in pregnancy and are less likely to miscarry even when it was donated to the old woman.

4. Freezing eggs

Freezing eggs provide an alternative for women to become their own donors. Women can have their egg cells are taken when young and then stored using cryopreservation technology. When a woman is ready to get pregnant, her eggs when young is readily available so as to have a higher chance of conceiving.

5. Donor embryos

If the male partner also has a problem of quality sperm, donor embryos is the right choice.

6. Loan uterus

Another woman who agrees to become pregnant using the male partner’s sperm and the egg cell itself or using the male partner’s sperm and egg cells women partners.

Safe Sport In The Fasting Month

Safe Sport in the fasting month, Fasting is not an excuse for not exercising. Despite fasting, the body still needs exercise to stay fit. However you should note the sport would you do, do not exercise makes the body’s condition became worse.

“People who want to exercise should know for what purpose. If the goal of exercise for good health, to live better, then do the exercise according to the ability of the body. If people are usually only ngantor, and want a better life, then start with light exercise because the body’s not ready, “said Dr.. Michael Triangto, SpKO, Sports Medicine Specialist in RS Mitra Kemayoran detikHealth when contacted.

So is the body condition of people who are fasting. Not all sports are best done when you are fasting. One-one, exercise can actually make the condition of the body to deteriorate.

“I’m not saying should not be strenuous exercise, but should be tailored to the condition of the body. The exercise but should be heavy in the afternoon because after that we break it,” continued Dr. Michael, who also serves as Division Head of Sports Medicine, Research and Development PB PBSI.

To that end, Dr. Michael gives some tips for safe exercise in the month of fasting:

Sports in the morning

• Determine the purpose of the sport. When intended for health and fitness, should be done during the morning after dawn with light intensity, so as not to trigger the occurrence of dehydration and excessive fatigue during the day which has the potential to reduce the effectiveness of the work.


• Because of the intensity of exercise performed was light, this should not be burdensome for people who previously never exercised.


• Do the exercise in the morning along with other family members so that not only ourselves who supposed, t but we also invite others to lead more healthy habits and strengthen our family relationships.

“Exercise in the morning it should light exercise and is family, because it can be done together, so mentally foster a sense of kinship,” explains Dr. Michael.

According to Dr. Michael, examples of exercise that can be done in the morning, among others:

• Brisk walk with family
• Sports games such as playing football in the yard or badminton, involving more than one person.
• Cycling along.

Sports in afternoon

• If our goal is to maintain muscle strength and form that have been formed before or want to exercise more weight should be done ahead of time for the afternoon break. The reason is, when the sport cause excessive fluid loss will certainly be more easily met at sunset. Besides fatigue that occurs due to undergo weight training will not lead to exhaustion of the body and interfere with our performance at work.


• Exercises are eksplosiv with a heavy load is usually used to fill this afternoon sport.


• Heavy intensity exercise typically must be tailored to the abilities and needs of each person so that the afternoon practice today are more individualistic.

Safety while doing sports is emphasized Dr. Michael because many cases of people forced to work out but at the condition of the body is not ready, which can ultimately be fatal.

“I got word that one of the senior coach suffered a stroke shortly after completing the exercise haemoragic. He was big like Ade Rai. He said he complained of not feeling well and his body would look for sweat. Then he exercise bike, but quite heavy and sweat a lot. Suddenly, his hand is not good really sorted continue to ask. Er kept his feet nice and not too suddenly pelo, “explains Dr. Michael.

To that end, Dr. Michael recommends that people always be careful when you start exercising, especially when the body ‘feels’ unwell’.

“People who fast my body often feels ‘unwell’. The point is do not be enforced and know the purpose of exercise. When the body is not healthy, it is safer to consult a doctor first to make sure everything is in good shape,” added Dr. Michael.
