Hiking
There’s always something to do and landscapes waiting to be explored in Texas and there are many ways to explore them as well. One of them is hiking. Texas has an endless natural diversity that you will enjoy exploring while getting fresh air. Hiking in Texas serves several purposes — you can enjoy the state’s natural beauty while exercising. Many people do it for the awesome sceneries while others for the good it will do to their body. If you want to get the best of both worlds, we suggest that you try hiking in the state. You will enjoy the view and lower the risk of heart disease. Hiking is also a great mood booster — if you’re feeling sad, get out and explore the nature to instantly lift your mood.
Canoeing and kayaking
You’ll never run out of waters to explore in Texas with 80.000 miles of beautiful streams and rivers. Finding the perfect place to paddle is not impossible. Canoeing and kayaking are just two of the most fun water activities you can do in the state. Whether you want to try canoeing and kayaking for fun or as competitive sports, you will have great benefits to your body. They can improve your strength, flexibility, and aerobic fitness. Few of the health benefits of canoeing and kayaking are: improved cardiovascular fitness, increased leg and torso strength, and increased muscle strength, specifically the muscles in the back, shoulders, arms, and chest.
Healthy diet
The rate of adult obesity in Texas is approximately 30.9%. Our Texas PALS, BLS and ACLS certification customers understand that obesity is a primary contributor to all sorts of cardiovascular-related complications.
Simply put, the best way to fight obesity is to maintain a healthy diet. Here are some tips.
-
Drink 1% or skim milk instead of 2% or whole milk.
-
Eat a variety of vegetables and fruit.
-
Chop up a bunch of vegetables at the beginning of the week for snacks.
-
Increase the amount of lean protein in your diet such as chicken and fish.
-
Eat slower. The slower you eat the less you eat.
We also recommend shopping for groceries at a farmer’s market. You can usually find fresh vegetables, fruit and lean meat at a local farmer’s market. Here is a site that will help you find a Texas farmer’s market. https://texasfarmersmarket.org/

Medical news
A boy saved outside of a KFC restaurant
It was a day of chicken and CPR. Police Officer Chase Miller was called to assist a family located at the back of a KFC restaurant. When he arrived he found an unresponsive boy being held by his mother. After placing the toddler on the ground and checking his vitals he proceeded to do CPR for around 2 minutes until little Brayden started breathing on his own again. The officer was given a life-saving award to honor his heroic actions.
Man saved by the staff at recreation center
A man who was playing racquetball suffered cardiac arrest and was saved by the staff at the recreation center where the event occurred. After another patron asked the staff to call 911, Melissa Lorenzen, staff member, rushed to the scene with the AED. She shocked him and began CPR. Collin Gibson, life-guard at the center, also assisted. By the time paramedics arrived, the man was responsive.
How a councilwoman became a hero
While dining with her husband, the Texas Councilwoman Jennifer Gates saw an elderly man collapse. The server in the local restaurant asked for someone who knows CPR and Gates, being a registered nurse in the past, jumped in to help. Being CPR- trained, she was able to provide the proper chest compressions to revive the man who was already foaming. The paramedics were quick to respond to the scene and took the man to the local hospital for proper care. Even without CPR experience as a nurse, Gates was able to save a life, of which the man’s family is eternally grateful for.
