Fitness for Capricorn
Your Ruling Planet: Saturn,
the planet of longevity and permanence.
The Part Of The Body Your Sign
Rules: Bones, teeth and especially the knees.
Your Metabolism: Steady
to high.
Your Health Profile:
A Capricorn is very ambitious and likes to
get ahead. However, the Goat tends to work long hours and
forget about how late it's getting. Too often, you're stuck
with having a fatty, salty late-night pizza by time you get
home. No matter how tight your deadlines, try to eat a little
bit better. Plan ahead. Enlist help from your roommate or
family members to help you do bigger, and therefore fewer,
shopping expeditions. Either freeze two dozen nutritious frozen
dinners or find a better, less greasy place to order up food.
Keep in mind that Capricorns, the Spartans
of the zodiac, are very self-critical and hard on themselves,
especially when they think they've been "lazy." They want
to look their best, and feel that maintaining a positive self-image
will help in their business life. And so it will. But don't
take this as a license to torture yourself.
In terms of exercise, your sign is an earth
sign, preferring leisurely sports such as hiking or jogging,
where you can set your own rhythm. Golf, even miniature golf,
would be fun for you, or rock climbing, for Goats like to
feel the earth beneath their feet.
Stiffness in joints could be a problem even
when Capricorns are young, so keep exercising to stay limber.
Knees could be your weak body part, so don't overstrain them.
Weight training might be good, but check with your doctor
if you have knee trouble.
Your Biggest Asset:
Your competitive drive and self-discipline.
What Drives You Crazy:
Being stuck in long, unproductive meetings when you could
be working out.
Health Risks:
Being too competitive and getting yourself
depressed if you don't meet your expectations, and worrying
about what others think of your performance. Please yourself,
Capricorn. Repeat after me: "It's only a game."
