    working out

    I have tried it and loved it. They offer great support and motivation, they being the coaches and your fellow gym buddies. Insanity and P90X are also great programs that you can tailor to your ability and you can do those in the comfort of your home.  I am currently doing P90X.<br>

    I disagree

    Yes, chemicals are pretty much a definite no. By boiling you could potentially release tolulene or benzine (both are carcinogenic) depending on the type of plastic used (PET or PETE).
