It’s not a surprise TODAY's Al Roker is up well before dawn for his job, but he actually wakes up extra early to start his day right. Like many successful people, he begins his morning with a workout. It ensures he gets his exercise in without any excuses and the habit sets him up to be ahead of the game for the rest of the day.
“I think you’re most productive when you have the least number of distractions,” he says. “And at 4:30 in the morning, there are no distractions.”

| Even when we know people’s names, why do we go for days without using them? By using someone’s name, you help them feel seen and acknowledged — and that’s an act of kindness. According to kindness.org’s research in collaboration with the University of Oxford, doing a kind act increases happiness, well-being, trust and compassion. And it can have the same powerful effect on those who receive the act. Try it, and put a smile on both your faces. |

As the largest muscle in your body, your glutes can really pay the price of sitting too long. It’s time to get moving!
Working the glutes typically involves squats and lunges, but not everyone can do them because they can be hard on the knees. So try three lower-impact -- but intense -- training exercises that are variations of the glute bridge. This workout is guaranteed to tone and shape your legs and glutes, while leaving you sore in all the right places.
Follow the link to see how it’s done. |
