Fitness goes cable in new Laurel talk show
Fitness expert Carl Powell is producing and hosting a new talk show, "Magnificent Living Today," which debuted April 15 on Laurel Cable.
Powell said the goal of his one-hour show, which airs at 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday, is to help viewers design and live healthier lifestyles.
Powell owns the Magnificent Body studio on Route 1, and over a 30-year career has been featured in national and international publications and trained celebrities such as the Pussycat Dolls.
"On the show, I plan to take viewers through my 21 steps to living a healthy and happy life -- magnificent living," Powell said. "Each week, they'll get a different step."
Powell also plans to pack the show with factual information on the dos and don'ts associated with exercise and diet.
"I want to help people sort through the myths and get to the truth about exercise and diet because there is a lot of bad information out there and a lot of (exercise and diet) programs are set up for failure," Powell said. "That's why I decided to do the show. I feel people want to exercise and diet but don't have the information they need."
For example, Powell pointed out that many people believe that because they may have an injury or a weak back, they cannot exercise, which is not true.
"Some people don't know that Pilates is good for the lower back, and improves the abdominal and lower back muscles where they end up having less pain," he said.
