Charlene Prickett combines brain with brawn on IT
FIGURES, her long-running exercise show for Lifetime
Television. "I have a real academic streak," says
Prickett. "I have a lot of interest in science and in
keeping up with the research that's always changing.
Every year I go to fitness conferences and
sports-medicine clinics throughout the country, and I
always like to share what I've learned by including an
information element in my shows." So what does the
latest research say about the most effective way to
get a good workout? Says Prickett, "In terms of being
optimally effective, cross-training - weight training,
along with some stretching and aerobic activity - has
come to be thought of as important. The advantage is
that you don't stress the body in the same way every
single day, and it prevents injury as well as boredom."
Prickett also believes that women have to work harder
than men at battling the bulge. "When you're young or
if you're a man, the likelihood of your staying near
ideal weight with exercise alone is good. However, if
you're female or over 25, it generally takes both
regular exercise AND good food choices. That doesn't
mean you can never have an ice-cream sundae, but to
stay at or near ideal weight, you need to make
discriminating food choices."
