    Try making your ads blend in better and see how it works.

    - Make the blue links to green. (the same one used in the template)
    - For the left navigation make the background light grey (like what it's placed behind) instead of white

    Do you submit your articles/blog entries to digg.com? Lots of people in the forums do;)

    Not a bad blog. Though I suggest you do something about this problem..it displays fine in Internet Explorer but looks shoddy in Mozilla Firefox. I myself face such a problem with my blogspot blogs but it got alright later on. I would suggest you upgrade to the new version of blogger where such instances are rarer still.

    To get traffic you''l need some hardcore Search Engine Optimization done...but even without that you can get traffic from digg and stumble upon if your posts are found interesting (remember diggs and StumbleUpons should be for a particular interesting post and not the whole blog).

    I dont think changing your ad colors to match your background would make a significant difference, but you can try that too.

    Good luck :)

    You can also try technorati. It also generates traffic for me. Just don't forget to ping them when you update your blog. :D

    I thought it got auto pinged if you changed a setting in blogger...so it gets an hour or so after your blog is posted with fresh content

    PR doesn't mean that you are going to get traffic and fitness is a very competitive niche. Fix your blog so that it displays correctly in Firefox and lose any banners or links that don't generate revenue. If people are going to leave your site by clicking on sometheing then it better be a PPC ad and not anything else. Just keep updating every day and if your content is good traffic will come. It takes time. Cheers!

    Try and leave comments at other blogs in your "niche" that really drives nearly all of my traffic...

    Just my humble opinion :) : the site looks cheap. The first impression isn't pro.

    The adds seem to be a little bit too dominant, at least I got the impression that the sole purpose of the site was just to be a placeholder for adds.

    Maybe you should work on the styles a bit and fine tune the adds?

    adsense places are good but

    * use green beackground on your ads (like your theme)
    * use ligth green colours for your ads links
