LIFT is a web magazine for the adventurer in all of us (not necessarily the gym goer) -- successful men and women who work hard and play harder. Fitness isn’t about living at the gym, it’s about living at your peak, no matter what stands in your way. It’s about obeying the alarm clock, peeling yourself out of bed, and finding that extra hour most people think they’ll never have.

LIFT items are selected either by myself or by one of my guest editors. If you have a cool tip, please share it with me! And, no, you can't pay to be featured on LIFT. That's what advertising is for, and it's clearly labeled as such. I do not want to destroy the legitimacy, integrity, and fun of this blog.

For the most part, I take the photos ... but from time to time I use Getty Images, iStockphoto (where I am currently a stock photographer) and Bauer-Griffin.

BlogBurst.comLastly, this site is syndicated through Blogburst, so it's likely that you'll see LIFT on Fox News, Reuters, or USA Today.com.

I hope that you continue to enjoy LIFT. I look forward to publishing it.

Be a Gentleman: Things a man should never do in the company of a woman

The-Kiss-2.jpgBy the editors of Marie Claire
Reveal how much your car cost. * Clean your gun. * Polish high school trophies (which you still have displayed). * Refer to your mother as your best friend. * Rap. * Check out our assistant/roommate/the babysitter. * Question our footwear. * Blow-dry your hair. * Tip less than 20 percent. * Celebrity impressions. * Impressions of us. * Forget to carry cash. * Flip it, flop it, swing it around, tug on it, adjust it, scratch it, or do anything that will remind us that it's just a goofy appendage and not a mystical source of pleasure and satisfaction. * Wii. * Boot and rally. * Scream - at the dog, at the guy who just stole your parking spot, at Eli Manning. Because no matter how much Eli deserves it (picked off again!), when we hear you raise your voice, we have an idea of what we're in for. * Talk about former exploits. Ever * Use the words bitch, slut, tramp, or whore, unless referring to another man. * Stick anything in our butts, unless previous discussions have occurred. * Tell us you're going to kiss us. (Just get on with it!).

* Use the words bitch, slut, tramp, or whore, unless referring to another man.

Someone said it is ok to use some of these once in a while, only if you use the word "skinny" in front of it, since once you call a woman skinny, she doesn't hear what else you are saying because she is focused on the fact that you just called her skinny.

I haven't tried it yet because I am afraid of getting slapped. What do you think, a time and place for it, or just never do it?
