Answer to Question 1

Twice a week engage in light resistance training to keep your upper body muscles toned and active. These muscles tend to get less of a workout during most types of aerobic exercise so engaging the upper body muscles helps to prevent their age-related muscle loss.

Answer to Question 2

The first thing to do is buy a step counter or pedometer. Take your baseline during week one and then gradually work up to a 10,000 step per day goal after several weeks.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
