SpanishDict(aholic) Butt?
Hi there,
What are we doing about the physical results of our addiction?
Constant muscle tension in the right forearm, atrophy in the left
Neck tension resulting from tilted posture of head to see computer screen through the business end of bifocals
Appearance of love handles and cushion around the navel
Need for seat cushion in chair resulting from loss of muscle tone in glutes
What have I left out? Previous threads have documented harmful effects on relationships with significant others, but I want to know what physical effects you might be concerned about not that you have experienced any of these yourself but what can you share as a warning to others so we all might take preventive measures.
Also, what measures can you suggest as preventions? I enjoy Yogilates. Your suggestions can contribute to improved public health for the entire SpanishDict community!
Answers in Spanish, English or both will be welcomed.
Please, only tasteful graphics.
Thank you for your support!

This member, wishing to remain anonymous, sent her picture. Tasteless. I warned her. She has no suggestions but it's apparent she needs to get out more.
This man has had too much of something. Not SpanishDict, I hope! We must show our concern for this important public health issue.
Our attempts at fitness sometimes meet with frustration.
As do our attempts at posting photos.
