Dailey Bailey: Tim McGraw’s Workouts Are Even More Grueling Than I Thought

No matter how many pictures and videos I’ve seen of Tim Mcgrw’s workouts, I’m still blown away when he goes into detail, which he did yesterday on “The Doctors”. Quote, “[Me and my] crew have a group mentality.

“We start in the morning around 11:00 in the gym and then in the amphitheaters we’ll run the lawn, the stairs, and then do a CrossFit section for an hour and a half.”

He also brings his own traveling gym. It has the usual barbells, dumbbells, exercise machines, and treadmills . . . but there are also weighted mallets, heavy ropes, and weighted shoulder harnesses that he carries on his back as he jogs. (???)

As for why he does this is, he says, quote, “I want to be healthy. I want to be around. I want to see my kids fulfill their dreams.” There’s a video of him and his crew in action on TheDoctorsTV.com.

Dailey Bailey: New Body Trend… The Thighbrow

The newest body trend you haven’t yet heard of: the thighbrow. The thighbrow is the crease created when you bring your leg up, where the thigh meets the hip.

Apparently the crease looks like an eyebrow – hence the thighbrow. Women are taking photos of themselves in swimsuits kneeling or lifting their legs up to create this crease and sharing their thighbrow online.

Dailey Bailey: Here Are the Ten Most Stressful Jobs

We’ve seen these lists before, but”Business Insider” crunched some old data and came up with a new ranking of the most stressful jobs.

And no, radio personality didn’t make the list. But it should . . . THAT’S how hard we work to make your day tolerable. Here’s the top ten.

1. Emergency dispatchers. That means police, fire, and ambulance. Their stress tolerance is 98.5 . . . that’s a number from zero to 100 that measures how frequently you have to accept criticism, and deal with high stress on the job.

Even worse . . . the average annual salary is only $39,410.

2. Nurse anesthetists. Sort of like an anesthesiologist, only you’re not a doctor. The stress tolerance is 98.2, but the average annual salary jumps to $158,900.

3. Telephone operators. We think that means customer service reps and call center people. Probably because of all the ABUSE we give them, when we just want answers from a real human being. Stress tolerance 98.2 . . . average salary $39,350.

4. Dancers. Yeah, we all saw “Black Swan”. The stress tolerance is 97. They didn’t list a salary, but it’s not like anyone does it for the money.

5. Obstetricians and gynecologists. Stress tolerance 96.5 . . . average annual salary $214,750.

6. Surgeons. We thought this would be higher too. But maybe they really ARE egotistical supermen, like they are on TV. Stress tolerance 96.2 . . . average annual salary $240,440.

7. Airline pilots, copilots, and flight engineers. Stress tolerance 95.2 . . . average salary $131,760.

8. Healthcare social workers. The stress tolerance is 95 . . . the average annual salary is $53,590.

9. Phlebotomists. They’re the people trained to draw blood from you for clinical or medical testing, transfusions, donations, or research. Stress tolerance 95 . . . average salary $31,890.

10. News anchor. Stress tolerance 94.7 . . . average salary $84,380

So basically . . . Don’t go into healthcare unless you can deal with your stress, and other people’s stress.

Dailey Bailey: Wanna Lose Ten Pounds by the Holidays? Drink a Glass of Water Before Every Meal

Wanna lose ten pounds by the holidays? Well, you’ve probably heard this before, but there’s some new science to back it up. Try drinking a glass of water before you eat.

Researchers at the University of Birmingham in England recently had people drink a pint of water 30 minutes before they had breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And in three months, they lost an average of nine-and-a-half POUNDS.

If you’re not a beer-drinker, a pint is 16 ounces. Which is a big glass of water, but that’s kind of the point. It makes you feel full, so you eat less.

Now, this doesn’t mean you can stop exercising and eat whatever you want. The people in the study also sat down with a nutritionist and got tips on how to be healthier in general.

But the water thing definitely made a big difference. The people in the study who didn’t do it lost an average of just 1.7 pounds. And that includes people who only did it before one meal a day instead of all three.

Dailey Bailey: Seven Things That Are Better to Say Than “I Love You”

The phrase “I love you” gets thrown around in relationships so often, it can start to lose its impact after a while. So here are seven other things you can say, that are even better than “I love you.”

1. “You’re so hot.” Not as elegant maybe, but you know YOU’D want to hear it. And if you want to go all out, there’s always “You’re so effing hot.” In other words, you’re so overwhelmed by how good-looking they are, only a swear word will suffice.

2. “I’m more in love with you today than I was yesterday.”

3. “You just made me laugh so hard.”

4. “I love your body.”

5. “I hate everybody today except you.”

6. “I love watching you run / give a speech / play an instrument.” You get the picture. Being specific is harder but more meaningful than throwing out ‘I love you all the time.’

7. “You look even better now than when I met you.”

Dailey Bailey: The Seahawks Are the Odds-On Favorites to Win the Super Bowl, and The Titans Are Not

Is it too early to predict who’ll win the Super Bowl this season? Not according to well-known statistician Nate Silver. He’s already got it worked out.

According to his calculations, the Seattle Seahawks are the favorites to win, with a 15% chance. And we could see the same game two years in a row, because the New England Patriots are second at 14%.

The Green Bay Packers are third at 7% . . . then the Broncos, the Cowboys, and the Colts are all at 6%.

On the other end of the list, seven teams have less than a 1% chance. At the very bottom of the pile are the Tennessee Titans. They’re followed by the Jaguars, the Redskins, the Buccaneers, the Raiders, the Bears and the Browns.

Dailey Bailey: The Ten Most Common Words of Wisdom We Get from Our Grandparents

This Sunday is National Grandparents’ Day, and according to a new survey, 64% of us say our grandparents have had a profound impact on our lives . . . and 56% pass on things we learn from them to our own kids. Here are the ten most common ‘words of wisdom’ we get from our grandparents . . .

1. “A leopard never changes its spots.” Meaning you can’t really change someone.

2. “A minute on the lips, a lifetime on the hips.” Which is about over-snacking.

3. “A watched pot never boils.”

4. “Treat others as you would like to be treated.”

5. “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.”

6. “An hour before midnight is worth two after.” In other words, don’t stay up too late.

7. “Be nice to people on the way up, because you’ll meet them on the way down.” Meaning be nice to people when things are going well, or they won’t be there for you when things aren’t going well.

8. “Cleanliness is next to godliness.”

9. “Don’t leave until tomorrow what you can do today.”

10. “Don’t let the sun go down on your anger.” Meaning don’t go to bed angry.

Dailey Bailey: 70% of Us Would Rather Watch Football at Home Than Go to the Game . . . Plus the Celebrity We’d Most Like to Watch With

NFL football starts tonight when the Steelers take on the Patriots. And according to a new survey, most of us would prefer to watch it from our couch than actually go to the game.

70% of football fans said they’d rather have friends over to watch a game than actually go to a game with them. Here are five more random stats from the survey . . .

1. 25% of fans said they have friends over to tailgate before a game at least four times a year.

2. 30% said if they could upgrade one thing for football season, it would be their grill . . . because apparently everyone already has a huge TV at this point.

3. The celebrity we’d most like to invite over for football is Will Ferrell, who got 57% of the vote. It’s not clear who the other choices were though.

4. If we could talk football with anyone during a game, it would be our Dad, who got 34% of the vote. Followed by Mike Ditka with 24%.

5. One-third of fans say they go on social media during halftime, compared to 23% who claim they still go outside to throw a football around.

Dailey Bailey: Women Want a Guy With a Dad Bod and a Dog . . . Men Want a Woman With Brown Hair and a Strategically Placed Tattoo

Match.com recently asked members to describe what they find most attractive about the opposite sex. Then they came up with what they call the ‘ideal’ man and woman.

Since it’s a weird composite, it doesn’t really make sense, but whatever. Here we go . . .

Guys want a woman with blue eyes . . . long, dark, brown hair . . . who’s a career driven doctor . . . with a strategically placed tattoo . . . and spends her free time swimming.

Women want a guy with short dark brown hair . . . blue eyes . . . a Dad bod . . . an executive job . . . and a dog.

But again, it’s a composite. Somehow we’re thinking a single guy with long dreamy hair and six-pack abs will do just fine?
