Next time you stroll into a McDonalds thinking about a greasy fatty delicious hamburger, contemplate getting a Salad. I know McDonalds is not known for having food that is good for you, but it may be worth checking out this once. Yourself Fitness has partnered with McDonalds to bring its virtual fitness instructor Maya to you TV via 15 minute workout videos. There are four in all featuring Core, Strength, Yoga, and Cardio. I picked up Strength yesterday, along with a hearty Asian Salad and a Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese. I can feel the weight coming off already.
