Emotional health is an important part of your overall health. People who are emotionally healthy are in control of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. They’re able to cope with life's challenges. They can keep problems in perspective and bounce back from setbacks.

What is a healthy weight? If you asked a fitness trainer he or she might say, "The weight at which you look and feel your best, or the weight at which you perform your best. "If you ask your doctor the reply might be, "the weight range for a given height that corresponds to the lowest risk of disease or early mortality. "These are all good answers. Speaking from the health standpoint, a healthy weight is that weight which gives you the best health and the best chance for a long, enjoyable life. 4, record 3, English, - normal%20weight

poids-santé : Ce terme est d'usage correct même si, en théorie, il ne devrait pas prendre le trait d'union. À l'intérieur du terme, «santé» vient qualifier «poids». Le mot «santé» est donc un nom jouant le rôle d'un adjectif. En français, lorsque l'on combine un nom et un adjectif, il ne faut pas mettre de trait d'union. La présence du trait d'union découle sans doute du fait que les mots «poids» et «santé» sont considérés au premier niveau comme deux noms, ce qui ne correspond pas à leur fonction grammaticale dans ce terme. 6, record 3, French, - poids%20normal

Natural running is running the way the human body was meant to run in its purest form... across a solid surface. That means running with good mechanics and an efficient gait that focuses on landing lightly on the midfoot/forefoot... and quickly lifting your foot off the ground instead of pushing off with excessive muscular force.... Tenants of natural running can be seen while running barefoot and running in lightweight or minimalist running shoes that allow your feet to develop proprioception or "feel" the ground with every step. 2, record 8, English, - natural%20running

Swinging a hammer while you are climbing up a rock can be exhausting. The hammer will start to feel much heavier than it did on the ground. Consequently, you should buy a hammer that is light enough to easily swing, even after you have pounded in a hundred pitons. Yet the hammer cannot be too light : it needs weight to give it enough force. Light-weight climbers find a good hammer head weight is 17-20 ounces. The handle should add no more than 8 ounces. Bigger climbers may want a more substantial hammer : 24-26 ounce hammer head will be heavy enough. 3, record 9, English, - hammer

Sufferers with this most puritanical of phobias typically feel guilty about experiencing pleasure even though they usually realize rationally there is nothing at all wrong with taking pleasure. Their guilt usually arises from the fact that they are participating in a pleasurable activity while others around them or in the world at large are experiencing nothing but illness, grief, economic hardship and other painful problems. Their guilt may also arise from the belief that life is best lived ascetically(similar to the idea that, for a medicine to do good, it must taste bad). 2, record 11, English, - hedonophobia

"The Wall. "It evades easy definition, but to borrow from Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart's famous definition of obscenity, you know it when you see it-or rather, hit it. It usually happens around mile 20, give or take a couple of miles. Your pace slows, sometimes considerably. Some runners say that it feels as though their legs had been filled with lead quail shot... Others can’t feel their feet at all. Thought processes become a little fuzzy... Muscle coordination goes out the window, and self-doubt casts a deep shadow over the soul.... Even if you’re racing at a reasonable pace and you’ve done a good job of carboloading in the days before the marathon, you still have only about 2, 000 calories worth of glycogen stored in the muscles and liver; that's about enough to get you to-surprise!-mile 20. If you manage to deplete your glycogen reserves, say hello to The Wall. 3, record 15, English, - wall

The bad news is that more than half of all nonelite marathon runners report having hit The Wall at least once. The good news is that more than 40 percent of all nonelite marathon runners have never hit The Wall. In other words, while it certainly doesn’t hurt to be prepared for the possibility of hitting The Wall, doing so is far from inevitable. 3, record 15, English, - wall

La soudaineté de la fatigue en course sur route et au marathon en particulier a conduit à l'expression désormais classique : «frapper le mur». [...] En fait, il n'y a pas un mur mais des murs.
