Did you know that heart disease is the number one killer of American women? Most commonly thought of as a “man’s disease”, heart health is a clear and present concern for us ladies more so than anything else. This is an issue near and dear to me, because it’s literally … at the heart of what I do. In fact, this is what fitness is all about. Making great choices about what you put in your mouth and keeping your body fit so that all of your organs and muscles including the most important one “the heart” will provide you with a long and healthy life.
January 31st marks the start of Women’s Heart Health Week, and we’re kicking off with a spectacular giveaway from Timex! Since the American Heart Association advises calculating and monitoring your training heart rate, as well as pacing yourself while exercising, I thought the Timex Ironman Race Trainer and Timex Ironman Road Trainer with heart rate monitors would fit the bill perfectly! My clients and I have been using these training watches since December and have been really happy with the comfort, ease of use and highly functional features made for athletes of all levels. These watches practically serve as a personal trainer and coach, handy indeed!
So if you promise to take care of that amazing heart of yours, we’ll promise to consider you in our Timex Ironman Giveaway! All you have to do to enter is use this comment section to pledge your commitment to heart health, and do it by February 14th, 2010 at 8:00pm EST.
Two winners will be randomly chosen and awarded either a Timex Ironman Race Trainer or a Timex Ironman Road Trainer (not both) and publicly announced on Fitzness.com/blog.
- Open to legal residents of the 50 United States, and the District of Columbia, who are 18 and older.
- One winner will be selected in a random drawing.
- Prizes will be shipped within 14 business days of receiving the winner’s mailing address.
