NAPERVILLE, ILL. (Jan. 7, 2009) — Femme FITall, a travel group offering people affordable opportunities to get together, get away and get fit, today announces a brand new fitness cruise – the “Lebert Fitness Cruise” – which is set to sail
April 2-6, 2009. Femme FITall is partnering with Toronto-based fitness professional Marc Lebert for its first-ever co-recreational men’s and women’s fitness cruise on Carnival Cruise Line’s “Destiny”, which departs Miami, Fla., on April 2nd and will sail to Key West, Fla., and Cozumel, Mexico, returning to Miami on April 6th. The “Lebert Fitness Cruise” will also debut founder Marc Lebert’s new “Buddy System” to guests.
“Our women’s fitness cruises have been a rewarding and successful experience for two years, which is why we are so pleased to launch our first co-recreational cruise,” said Kate Lichter, president of Femme FITall. “Mark’s exceptional fitness savvy and innovative ‘Buddy System’ is something both guys and gals will benefit and learn from, all the while staying active while on vacation.”
As a certified personal trainer for more than 10 years, Marc Lebert will be on board teaching classes throughout the cruise. Lebert is the same person who developed the “Lebert Equalizer“, which has become an invaluable tool for trainers everywhere and is changing group exercise programming in the United States and Canada. This portable and versatile tool is also a big hit with boot camps, team training and school programs (Note to editors: Web site link follows at the end of this press release).
In March 2009, Lebert will launch a new product called the “Buddy System.” Cruise participants will be some of the first to try it out and be able to purchase/order their own at a substantial discount and could potentially win one. The “Buddy System” is portable, versatile and unique. This new training tool offers unlimited exercise and program designs. Participants work together to pull, twist and push, which is fitting (pun intended) for trainers to work closely with their clients and for pairing up team, boot camp or in-home training.

I think it’s starting to become common knowledge that it’s important to exercise while pregnant. I’m not talking about the heavy duty, intense, marathon-like workouts…I’m talking about slow and steady with a bit of physical challenge.
Here are some Exercise Guidelines if you are pregnant:
Pre-eclampsia During Pregnancy
ScienceDaily (Jun. 3, 2008) — Stretching exercises may be more effective at reducing the risk of preeclampsia than walking is for pregnant women who have already experienced the condition and who do not follow a workout routine, according to researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Nursing.
Preeclampsia, or pregnancy-induced hypertension, is a condition that affects up to 8 percent of pregnancies every year and is among the leading causes of maternal and fetal illness and death worldwide.
The finding is contrary to existing studies and literature that suggest that rigorous exercise is the most effective way to reduce the risk of preeclampsia, said SeonAe Yeo, Ph.D., an associate professor with a specialty in women’s health at the UNC School of Nursing and the study’s lead researcher.

Stay in shape while making a baby!
I am sore today!! Yesterday, I jump roped in the park while with my nieces and nephew. I walked all day at the Festival de La Familia and I had an evening run with my boyfriend.
While I usually run on the treadmill in the morning, I was UNINSPIRED to do so this Monday morning because I was SORE. I realized that all that IMPACT on my joints, really created a lot of tension in my body. Now, I’m suffering from soreness and a little bit of joint tenderness.
I was going through some internet stuff this morning and found this awesome site called “THE HUMAN BODY EXPLORED” it goes through sight, strength and senses. It’s very, very similar to going to “The Universe Within” **For those who don’t know, that’s an exhibit of human bodies without skin.
Here’s some interesting factoids:
If you weigh 150 pounds, you are applying A LOT of weight on your joints when you exercise. You’ve probably heard of that FACT:
- when you run, you are pounding NOT just 150 pounds, but triple your body weight, right?
Well, check this out:
if you are 150 pounds, you are adding
- 450 pounds on joints when you are on the stairclimber
- 900 pounds on joints when you are running
- 1350 pounds on joints when jumping.
ENTER YOUR WEIGHT and see how much pressure you are adding to your joints here.

Isn’t that creepy?
Take care of your joints!!
