Heard of this? I had a friend send me an email to get me to sign up, so I did. I won't link to it, but here's the description, with the web address:
quote:


Just thought I'd let you know about the site athttp://www.12daysoffitness.com where over 200 of the world's leading fitness experts are GIVING AWAY diet plans, workouts, videos, audios and reports about practically every aspect of getting and staying in great shape.

Apparently it's done every year, but I've never heard of it. You just give them your email address and on Dec. 10 they send you an email everyday with supposedly great fitness stuff.

But that got me to thinking, even if what they send is lame, 12 straight days of making a commitment to eat well and exercise would kind of be a cool Christmas gift to yourself. So I think I'm going to try to do that. Have you done this 12 days thing before? Or something on your own?

Never heard of it. But this stuff comes out this time of year because most people try to start exercising and getting in shape Jan 1st. If you ever go to the gym the first week of January you'll find its the only week that its almost 100% full.

Indeed. I generally avoid the gym through February.

I pay more to go to a gym that has a hundred treadmills, so even if they were full theres always someone getting off because most people spend less than a half an hour on one. I've never had to wait though.


Well I put my email address in and got taken to an elimination diet page. Probably going to be a lot of spam but I'll just delete them. Probably isn't something that we don't already know.

Hi stella,
A good reason to have a "junk" email account. I use my "junk" email account for all email lists, forums, etc.

I did that 12days last year-and it was mostly "pitches" for fitness stuff....the "free" stuff usually came with a purchase.

A few of the fitness email lists I like and have found informative are:
Jillianmicheals.com
LeeHayward.com and
Tom Venuto's email list from burnthefatblog.com

That's good to know.

I'm still going to do my own "12 Days of Fitness" by eating well and exercising for the 12 straight days before Christmas. Then I might do the "12 Days of Valentine" and the "12 Days of St. Patrick," etc.

(Edited to add that the first email is not supposed to come until Dec. 10. We'll see if they are true to their word!)
