Alexis Snchez faces a fitness test on his injured thigh before Arsenal face Sunderland on Tuesday night in a match the London club must win to take their pursuit of Champions League qualification to the final day of the season.

Snchez limped out of the 4-1 win against Stoke City on Saturday after sustaining what Arsne Wenger described as a kick to the thigh, with the Chile international joining the defender Laurent Koscielny as a doubt for the game on Tuesday.

Alexis will have a test today. Yesterday, it didnt look too good, but with him you never know, Wenger said. He is so keen that maybe It was just a kick so it could be possible that he recovers in time.

Koscielny, who played 90 minutes against Stoke, has suffered a recurrence of the calf problem that forced him to sit out the win against Southampton last week but Wenger is confident the Frenchman should be fit to face Sunderland.

Liverpools victory against West Ham United on Sunday means Arsenals fate remains out of their hands. Jrgen Klopps team play Middlesbrough at home on the final day, with Everton due at the Emirates Stadium but Wenger insisted he is focused only on preparing his side for the meeting with Sunderland.

We have 69 points and can get to 75, which would be four points more than last year. We are mathematically outsiders but you never know, he said.

All we can do is win our own games. We have created the momentum again by winning six of the last seven games after having a period away from home where we were not stable. Thats positive.

Wenger also confirmed that Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will not feature against Sunderland or Everton but revealed that the England midfielder has an 80% of recovering from his hamstring injury in time for the FACup final against Chelsea on 27May.

After two decades as a personal trainer in other people's gyms, Fitch opened his own brick-and-mortar fitness studio last month at 115 W. First St.

"Everywhere you go, in almost every gym, you see improper form, and you know they're going to hurt themselves or not get anywhere, they're going to waste their time," said the 42-year-old Marine Corps veteran. "So being able to help them out is amazing."

Fitch knows finding time to do some crunches can cause a time crunch, so one of his signature offerings at Time IV Fitness is the 15-minute lunch class modeled after a bootcamp workout.

"If you say, 'I'm going to work out after work,' you dread it all day," Fitch said. "But if you can do things for people like the lunch crunch," then maybe they'll see there's time after all.

Backstory

Fitch was raised in Duluth, and though he has a body-builder's physique today, he says he struggled with obesity through childhood until discovering freestyle BMX in his teens.

"I practiced and lost some weight and thought there's really something to this exercise stuff, right?" he said.

Going into the Marines right out of high school, he really started to focus on fitness including a stint training others in Korea when he was stationed there and the Corps gave him a big boost toward his eventual career.

"As you're transitioning out, they're really supportive," Fitch said. "They want to know what you want to do next, and get you into a career."

So he went to school for exercise science and started along the path that would see him working for every corporate fitness chain in Minnesota. All the better to see what makes them tick, what makes them successful in their own way.

Fitch came back to Duluth from the Twin Cities in 2011 after his father was diagnosed with cancer; he would lose his brother and father within the next year.

"It was just me and my mom and I thought hey, I'll stay here," he said.

While working as a trainer at the Duluth YMCA, Fitch started planting seeds for his own studio, which took over the spot Z Studio (now Ignite Studio) vacated this winter. He said it's usually pretty foolish to start a gym right before the weather finally improves and people want to stay outside, but with his offerings he felt the timing would be fine. It's all in the timing, really.

"I can have classes at 4 in the morning if I want," he said. "For the lunch crunch class you come here for 15 minutes and get out."

Fitness hub

The name, Time IV Fitness, does allude to Fitch's mission to meet people on their schedule. But using the Roman numeral also pays homage to his father, who was a horologist a watchmaker.

"That kind of pays tribute to him," Fitch said.

There was still a sense of newness to the place earlier this spring, with its fresh coat of white paint and exposed wood flooring lighting up the studio that is sparsely populated with fitness machines.

Aside from classes, Fitch uses the space to work one-on-one with clients for a typical rate of $1 a minute, though the training doesn't stop when they walk out the door.

"The training is important but the nutrition is so paramount the accountability," he said. "I send daily text motivation messages for people, and they can come in and talk about challenges they're facing this week."

Fitch noted the location works well, as he finds himself among a growing number of healthy businesses downtown.

"It's starting to be kind of a little fitness hub," he said, pointing to the nearby Superior Kettlebell Gym and Jem Yoga on First Avenue West; Cold Fusion, Ignite Studio and Edge Pilates on Superior Street; and Personal Best Pilates, the YMCA and Protein Pub on West First Street. "The foot traffic around here is amazing."

Kristi Stokes, president of the Greater Downtown Council, agreed.

"It's great to see that downtown continues to grow as a destination for health and fitness. We have one of the greatest recreational opportunities with the Lakewalk right outside our doorsteps, and that provides some amazing synergy with our health and fitness industry."

One of the legendary journalists who helped uncover the Watergate scandal explained today that President Donald Trumps mental fitness and stability are important parts of the story when it comes to a possible coverup regarding Trump/Russia collusion. At the same time, he acknowledged that these subjects are extremely difficult for reporters to cover.

Appearing on CNNs Reliable Sources this morning, political analyst and Washington Post veteran Carl Bernstein pointed out that we are now hearing conservative commentators questioning the stability of Trump, noting that this is unheard of. He went on to say why this is so important right now.

Republicans on Capitol Hill, the Republicans during Watergate were heroic, he told host Brian Stelter. They are the ones who said, What did the president know and when did he know it? They investigated and investigated and voted for his impeachment because they were willing to see the truth served.

Stating that we have yet to see GOPers on the Hill go this far yet, Bernstein pointed out that privately, they doubt the presidents stability and fitness for office.

Donald Trump is a president with whom there is a grave question about his fitness and ability to conduct the office of the presidency, the iconic reporter said. Thats going hand in hand with the possible coverup into collusion with a foreign power.

Stelter highlighted that the Post this morning put a quote from an anonymous source close to the White House on its front page in which the person said the president is in the grip of some kind of paranoid delusion.

It is an anonymous quote on the front page of the Washington Post, Stelter asked Bernstein. Is that appropriate, Carl?

Bernstein responded by saying it was not only appropriate but that its part of the story and its very hard to cover. He concluded his point by discussing Trumps tweeting habits.

Its a different dynamic than we have ever had to deal with before, he noted. But the tweets that the President of the United States has been making are a roadmap of his mind. And that roadmap takes some very crooked corners.

Over the past couple of months, Bernstein has claimed that there is a serious belief by the FBI that theres an active coverup going on to hide Trump/Russia connections and that Trump is impeding the investigation. Hes also said that Trumps lying makes him the most dangerous enemy of the people.

BILLINGS -

While alarm clocks are sounding off across Billings, a fitness instructor is getting a kick start to the day.

"There's something special about early mornings when there's nobody out. It's like you get to wake up without being rushed into waking up, said Danni Butler, fitness instructor at the YMCA.

With a start time of 5:20 a.m. on Tuesdays, Butler goes from resting to motivational instructor in an hour.

"I have people relying on me to get here. You can't just lay there and be like, oh, I'm going to skip out today," she said.

What many early risers consider their lifeblood, Butler skips the coffee every morning and replaces it with a healthy dose of exercise.

"I almost feel like I'm more productive after working out because you get your heart rate going and your blood going. It's almost better than coffee because then you're awake, she said.

Butler observes the same in her students.

"First thing in the morning when they're coming in, everyone is kind of dragging. When you start getting them going and they start getting their blood going and everything else, then they start waking up. That's when they start getting chatty and stuff. But first thing when you're setting up and they're coming in waiting for class, everyone is kind of tired, not real chipper."

If chipper isn't one of the words you would use to describe yourself in the morning, Butler, a mother of three, believes it's doable.

Not being a real morning person naturally, I was kind of nervous the first couple of weeks. I wasn't sleeping real well because I was so paranoid that I wasn't going to get up. But it can actually be done and you can train yourself to do it, she said.

This story is part of a series airing on Montana this Morning in the month of May.

Imagine never having to leave your house to get your sweat on. Would you go for it? When you consider that half the battle is just getting to the gym, the idea of working out in your garage or living room sounds pretty appealing.

Exercising from home definitely has its pros and cons. But when you consider that 67% of people with gym memberships never use them, its easy to see how the scale begins to tip towards the pro side of working out at home.

Why Home Fitness

Lets face it, the main reason most people dont make it to the gym is time. Having to drive to the gym, get dressed, wait for the equipment you want, and then go to work or back home again takes A LOT of time. So, if you are someone who looks at that sequence of events and says no way, opting for a home workout program might be the best way to make exercise happen.

And of course, we cant forget cost. Joining a gym is expensiveand for some, that monthly membership fee takes away from other bills that need to be paid. In fact, one of the main reasons people quit their health clubs or gyms is because they think it is too expensive to keep training there.

But for me, one of the most encouraging outcomes is to see people feeling confident and comfortable exercising, which of course leads to a stronger commitment to lifetime fitness. Something they may have never experienced if the gym was their only option.

Online Videos

One of the most popular trends right now is online workout videos. They are easy to access and most of them are free. Kelli Segars, co-owner of Fitness Blender, an online site with over 500 FREE workout videos, says she hears from people daily about how working out at home has changed their commitment to fitness. These are people who either were too shy or too scared to try a traditional gym, or they have a demanding work, school or home life that wouldnt allow them the time or finances to keep up with a monthly gym membership fee, she says.

Segars, along with her husband Daniel, started Fitness Blender because they felt like there was a lack of reliable health and fitness information on the web. Even though there was already a ton of information available, much of it was not accurate, very expensive to access, or overly focused on the way a person looks, says Segars. So together, they set out to create a space that provided a more accessible, enjoyable approach that made people feel fit and healthier. The duos free videos, which are filmed in the garage of their North Seattle home, make up the bulk of the content on their website, which now has over 4 million subscribersmaking Fitness Blender the most-watched fitness channel on YouTube.

I think people appreciate the convenience and the affordability of having over 500 workout videos available for free, especially since most require either no equipment or just dumbbells, says Segars. Subscribers like the laid back, sustainable approach and the encouragement to stay away from harsh diets. The workouts are also very intentionally and meticulously built, which users say feels different. We encourage people to think about the health of their bodies and I think once they embrace our approach (smart exercise and a healthy, whole foods diet), its not uncommon to feel better, so the good habits quickly become positively reinforced, explains Segars.

Yes, I Tried One

Full disclosure: I am a gym junkie, and rarely workout at home. So when I started researching this infectious movement, I was quite surprised by the sophistication of the videos and how easy it was to customize my workout. I swapped out my 4:30am squat rack date with a morning of plyometrics, functional training, Pilates, kickboxing, yoga, and toning/strengthening for all the major muscle groupstry saying that ten times fast!

So what happened? Well, can I just say, holy crap. But first, I should be upfront and tell you that I chose a workout with a level 5 ratingthe most difficultbecause apparently, I like to get my ass kicked. Online menu (which is one of the most impressive features on this site), I picked total body for my body focus, HIIT for the training type and jump rope/mat for my equipment. This combination of requests led me to a video titled 1000 calorie Workout Video: 94 Minute Insane Bodyweight Workout ChallengeAttempt at Your Own Risk.

This was probably one of the best cardio and bodyweight strength training workouts I have had in a very, very long time. And while the workout I chose was definitely among the most challenging Fitness Blender offers, there are over 700,000 people who workout to one of their videos every day, which means they have something to offer all fitness levelsfrom the beginner to the most seasoned fitness enthusiasts.

And while I may never hang up my gym towel, I will definitely replace one or two of my traditional training days with a butt kicking video from this totally relatable and absolutely awesome couple.

The City of Lebanon is partnering with the Lebanon Valley Family YMCA this summer to offer healthy activities for residents of all ages, including free cardio-dance classes at Coleman Memorial Park.

The City of Lebanon healthy community summer programis being organized by Michelle Remlinger, an administrative secretary for the Lebanon Police Department who also works as the Ys healthy living and group exercise coordinator.Funding for the program is being provided through a Pennsylvania Department of Health grantand donations from and local businesses.

We just thought it would be a good thing for the community to have some activities for the summer, Remlinger said. Because of my involvement with the YMCAs healthy living and group exercise programs the mayor entrusted me to do a community wellness programin the city.

Mayor Sherry Capello is also taking an active part in the wellness program by hosting three Walk with the Mayor one-mile walks, Remlinger said.

"I did see across the United States there are only a handful of these Walk with the Mayor programs, she said. I know the mayor is very into fitness. She is at the Y almost every day, so I didnt have to twist her arm.

The mayors walks will be held at the following days and times. It is free and there is no registration required. All participants will receive a free pedometer, as long as supplies last, and health tips fromRemlinger, including how to create a walking program. In the event of rain the walks will be held on the Y's indoor track.

The mayor is not the only one leading walks around the city this summer. Police Chief Todd Breiner will also be conducting '"Walk with a Cop" safety walks for children ages 6 to 12.

Allison Yax, clinical exercise physiologist for cardiac rehab, works with a new patient to set his personalized treadmill settings during his initial evaluation last week, as Judy Grove, RN, observes.

Pictured are the staff members of the Cardiac Rehabilitation program. From left are Connie Paladenech, RRT, RCP, cardiac rehab manager; Jill Hall, administrative specialist; Judy Grove, registered nurse; and Allison Yax, clinical exercise physiologist

Northern Hospital of Surry County has partnered with Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center to offer cardiac rehabilitation service to local patients. The Medical Center started the first cardiac rehabilitation program in the state.

As one of the longest-standing cardiac rehabilitation programs, our team of experts has helped thousands of patients recover from heart attack, heart surgery and heart failure, said David Zhao, M.D., chief of cardiovascular medicine and executive director of Wake Forest Baptists Heart and Vascular Center. We offer outpatient rehabilitation programs designed to help you improve your daily life and maintain your independence, and we are thankful for the partnership with Northern Hospital to offer this level of service to their community.

Earlier this month the first patients were admitted to the Northern Hospital Cardiac Rehabilitation program.

We are excited to utilize the expertise of Wake Forest Baptist in getting our program at Northern up and running, said Brian Beasley, vice president of clinic operations, Northern Hospital. Numerous residents of Mount Airy and surrounding communities are already traveling to Winston-Salem for their cardiac rehab services, and these patients can now be served right here at home.

Cardiac rehabilitation is a program of exercise, education, counseling and learning designed to help people with heart disease make needed changes for a healthier lifestyle. Participating in a cardiac rehab program allows for quicker recovery from heart attack, heart-related surgery or other heart disease. The ultimate goal is to enable patients with cardiac disorders to resume active and productive lives.

Patients enrolled in cardiac rehab typically attend the program two to three times a week.

For local residents, a 60-mile round trip taken several times a week is time consuming, tiring, and expensive, the two hospitals said in a joint statement released last week. All of these factors can result in some patients failing to finish their prescribed treatment plan. Local residents may now come to Northern where they are closer to home and more easily able to see their program to completion.

Before the doors officially opened at the beginning of May, more than 20 referrals had already been received from cardiologists throughout the region including offices in Mount Airy and Winston-Salem; with more referrals arriving daily.

Northern Hospital Foundation applied for a grant to receive the initial funds needed for construction of the new cardiac rehabilitation department. The hospital was generously awarded $250,000 from The Duke Endowment.

Northern Hospital will host an open house and ribbon cutting on Friday, May 19th at 3 p.m. Cardiac Rehabilitation is located on the third floor at Northern Hospital. For more information on the program, call 336-783-8448 or visit http://www.northernhospital.com/heart.
