LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE


LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE
according to PETEtheTRAINER


Life should be a whole lot of fun, don't you think? ...in fact, I think BLISS should be a big part of our every-day experience. I think we'd get more 'LIVING' done!
I know personally, I don't do well long term with SHOCK, GUILT, SHAME and BLAME so through trail & error and quite a bit of pondering I've found a way of ...if not avoiding these 4 Failing Faults ...I can at least minimize their presence emanating from my personal actions.

I for one would have found it extremely helpful if I had been presented with a Life manual on the day I was born ...since I wasn't, I made up my own Guiding Principles (there are 19).
If YOU are in need of some principle based guidance for expressing your individuality and enjoying more of your life in a positive healthy way,
feel free to use them too!

here they are:


1 Educate yourself until the day you die. * The time & energy you invest in your education will propel your life. You are the product of what you know. The more proactive, practical knowledge you acquire, the more control you have over your life and where your life is taking you.

2 Spend as much time as possible with the people you love. * Human beings are emotional creatures. Family and close friends makeup the core of your emotional support system. The more you nurture them, the more they will nurture you, so you can enjoy a rich & satisfying life-condition.

3 Be a part of something bigger than you. * This could be anything. Some people take an active role in their local City Council, some find stimulation in social clubs, supporting causes they believe in, and others find passion in their careers. In each case the psychological outcome is the same, they engage in something they strongly believe in. This engagement brings direction- satisfaction and meaning into your life.

4 Take full ownership of your actions. * Either you own up to your actions or your actions will ultimately own you.

5 Excel at what you do. * Work toward excellence (not perfection) ...develop a reputation for consistent excellence.

6 Always be honest with yourself and others. * Living a life of honesty creates peace of mind.

7 Be self-sufficient. * Self-sufficiency is the greatest freedom. Freedom is the greatest gift.

8 Live below your means. * Live a comfortable life, but not a wasteful one.

9 Reflect on your goals and direction. * The process of self reflection helps maintain & expand your creative consciousness.

10 Build a comfortable, loving household. * Home is where the heart is. Your home should be structured and lined with love.

11 Listen more (2 ears), talk less (1 mouth). * The more you listen and the less you talk, the more you will learn and the less you will miss.

12 Mix it up. Try different things. * Seek as many new & interesting life experiences as possible, and be sure to share them with the people you love.

13 Over-deliver on all your promises. * Some people habitually make promises they are just barely able to fulfill. They promise perfection and deliver mediocrity. This is the fast track to decreasing your personal value . Slightly under-sell your capabilities so that you*re always able to over-deliver.

14 Savor the natural joys of simple pleasures. * The best things in life are free. They come in the form of simple pleasures and they appear right in front of you, at various locations and arbitrary times. They are governed by Mother Nature and situational circumstance and captured by mindful awareness.

15 Exploit the resources you DO have access to. * The average person is usually astonished when they see a physically handicap person show intense emotional happiness. How could someone in such a restricted physical state be so happy? The answer rests in how they use the resources they do have.

16 Respect everyone. * There are no boundaries or classes that define a group of people that deserve to be respected. Treat everyone with the same level of respect you would give to your grandfather and the same level of patience you would have with your baby brother.

17 Be here now. * Right now, is the only moment guaranteed to you. Right now is life. Each moment is a gift, that's why it's called the present, don*t miss it.

18 Take very good care of your body. * Your body is the greatest tool you[ll ever own. It literally impacts every step you take, and every move you make. Nourish it, exercise it, and rest it. Always seek professional guidance to best improve & maintain your body in Positive Anabolic Mode TM.

19 Leave time for spontaneous excursions. * Wondrous opportunity in your life knocks at unexpected times. Make sure you have enough flexibility in your schedule to respond accordingly and take full advantage of these unplanned opportunities.

The Cola Count-DOWN



WARNING
The Following Dramatization
Is For Education Purposes Only
DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME

The Cola Count-DOWN
according to Pete the Trainer

Have you ever wondered why Coke comes with a smile?
It's because it gets you high


They took the cocaine out almost a hundred years ago
You know why?
It was redundant..!


READY? ...Flip ...Tip ...AND ...GO........!!

* In The First 10 minutes: 10 teaspoons of processed sugar hits your system. (100% of your recommended daily intake ...and some sodas, it's up to 30 teaspoons of sugar.) You don't immediately vomit from the overwhelming sweetness, because phosphoric acid cuts the flavor allowing you to keep it down.

* After 20 minutes: Your blood sugar spikes, causing an insulin burst. Your liver responds to this by turning any sugar it can get its hands on into fat. ...and there's plenty of sugar available at this particular moment.

* 40 minutes: Caffeine absorption is complete. Your pupils dilate, your blood pressure rises, as a response your liver dumps more sugar into your bloodstream. The adenosine receptors in your brain are now blocked preventing drowsiness.

* 45 minutes: Your body ups your dopamine production stimulating the pleasure centers of your brain. by the way, this is physically the same way heroin works.

* 60 minutes: The phosphoric acid binds calcium, magnesium and zinc in your lower intestine, providing a further boost in metabolism. This is compounded by high doses of sugar and artificial sweeteners found in typical American 'snack' foods, increasing the urinary excretion of calcium.

* 65 Minutes: The caffeine's diuretic properties come into play. (It makes you have to pee.) It is now assured that you'll evacuate the bonded calcium, magnesium and zinc that was headed to your bones as well as sodium, electrolyte and water.

* 70 minutes: As the rave inside of you dies down, you'll start to have a sugar crash. You may become irritable and/or sluggish. You've also now, literally, urinated away all the water that was in the Coke, but not before infusing it with valuable nutrients that your body could have used for hydration and building of your body's many systems including building strong bones and teeth. All the following will all be followed by a caffeine crash that occurs within the next few hours, as little as two if you're a smoker, but hey ...have ANOTHER Coke

it'll make you feel better ???

What's Your Goal? ...The 7 SECRETS to SUCCESS


Part 1 of What's Your Goal?

Ask the average person "Do you have goals?" and you get... "Oh yea ...Lots"
or "...Err...well, I'm still working ON my goals!"
...These are typical quip replies I hear.

Seems the average person THINK they know about goals, but based on results...
THEY DON'T
...after all where does one go to learn to Understand the basic principles involved..!

So what I'm really asking about is "Have you created any Goal Result Updates?"

Whether we are aware of it or not, we've actually been 'making' goals since the day we were born. Some have it down to a fine art and have become masters at Goal Setting and achieving success ...and some, are just, stuck at the list making stage, and aren't able to enjoy the fruits of their dreams and aspirations.
Today's post is designed to empower those that might be stuck and need some help clarifying and focusing on their Goal Creating Skills.

When I hear the kinds of reactive answers like the couple above, it usually means, they need help with 'polishing up' their 'Goal Activation' skills, least that's how MY 'Personal Trainer' brain dissects the situation. After all, who doesn't want to be successful in life? ...Yea... there are some negative individuals who choose otherwise... well ...the way I look at it is, in life nothing stands still ...you're either spiralling up or you're spiralling down. Choose!

WHAT IS A GOAL? A Goal is a tool. When a Goal is activated correctly ...it's a powerful way to make some thing happen. When done incorrectly, it's just another power-draining way to clutter up your life, so you end up further away from what you want
...just another example of what I call Stinkin' Thinking.


GOALS COME IN 3 TYPES

A) SOLID (meaning, Fully Activated - REALIZED /Written down and displayed and read daily)

B) FLOATING (Semi Activated - meaning, written somewhere, but NOT displayed or read daily)

C) VAGUE (Partially Activated - meaning, somewhere in the back of my mind)


FOR A GOAL TO BECOME 'SOLID' it needs to be PROCLAIMED (written as a positive statement of action) so it CAN become ACTIVATED ...this means your 'Wish', ...'Hope', ...'Desire' etc has changed to a intended action. The fact that you have written it down means you have now proclaimed your intention simultaneously creating a 'cause' out to the Universe. (Cause & Effect) By writing it down, you have automatically taken the first step toward accomplishment. It's now on it's way to becoming a REALIZED Goal.


THE 7 SECRETS to SUCCESS

1) You must have a 'Wish', 'Hope', 'Desire' etc (...that's easy, right?)

2) Your 'Wish', 'Hope', 'Desire' etc must be BELIEVABLE TO YOU.

3) Your 'Wish', ...'Hope', ...'Desire' etc must be WRITTEN DOWN so you can read it daily to your sub-conscious mind.

4) You must HAVE LEVERAGE ...in other words you must have a compelling reason to come out of your comfort zone. This is also known as passion or burning desire!!!

5) You must have a TRACK-ABLE TIME-LINE ...in other words you must have a structured way of measuring your progress each 'do-able' step along the way.

6) You must have AN ESTABLISHED GRADUATION DATE & TIME ...in other words you must have an imagined time when you are going to stand in front of the mirror a say " WOW! Look at that ...Yes I struggled, yes I put in hours of sweat, BUT I never gave up ...I FEEL so proud of what I have accomplished!

7) In order to use your full potential for success you must have a SUPPORT SYSTEM IN PLACE & SWITCHED ON ...in other words you must have a way of dealing with the setbacks, side-tracks and do-do that's gonna come up, and mess with your plans. This can be a belief system, support from a mentor, family and friends, a magazine subscription etc. My council to you is, enrol the services of a proven, street smart, experienced Personal Trainer who can guide and educate you, so you learn via empowerment, not by pain. So expect the 'goal gremlins' and prepare to tackle them from the side.

...O.K. BIG STEP NOW

Get your day planner out...

THE PLATEAU



The Plateau:
What to do when you hit the weight loss wall


Today I'll share with you (and in no particular order) the first, on our list of
7 productive ways to get things moving in your quest to drop those pounds

ONE OF THE MOST COMMON FRUSTRATIONS in weight (Fat) loss is when all progress halts despite the fact you are diligently following your plan. Such plateaus are
predictable and explainable.


Before we begin, it's really helpful to have a rudimentary
understanding of something called BMR ...Basal Metabolic Rate ...every alive person has a BMR.


O.K. so this is how it works ...Your BMR is the measurement of the energy required to keep your heart pumping, lunges expanding, kidneys filtering, and keep all other vital bodily functions going when the body is at rest which accounts for 60 - 70 percent of the calories you burn and depends, for the most part, on your Body Mass.



KEY INFO:
When the weight loss occurs, Body Mass goes
down ...so does your BMR


Consider this example:

Say you weigh 162 pounds, and you eat 1,900 calories per day ...to lose a pound a week, you've got to cut between 500 to 600 calories per day

...so you, (like many, many who are
out there) restrict themselves to say, 1,400 calories AND the weight COMES OFF,

BUT..!

After week 6, the scale refuses to budge. This is because with the weight loss, your BMR has also declined (say, from 0.95 to o.75 calories per minute) ...AND where your body used to burn 1,368 calories per day, now it's using only 1,080. At this weight, there's less of you to move around, so you burn fewer calories and use fewer calories as heat. All in all, your daily calorie expenditure is now pretty close to what you're taking in. You've hit a PLATEAU..! In other words you are (weight loss wise) at - equilibrium



I hope this makes sense to you, 'cos it's handy to have a grasp of this kind of stuff, so you can have more control of your destiny and achieve better results.



Here's our first of the 7 productive ways to 'GET OVER IT'..!

Number 1) Put Up Some Resistance.
Increasing physical activity is particularly useful for moving beyond a plateau, especially if your weight loss has been coming from diet alone. Starting a structured strength training program under the guidance of an experienced Personal Trainer is an excellent idea, not only will this give you muscle tone and tighten up your skin, it will create something called 'Afterburn', this is a condition where your body burns fat while you are resting and sleeping.

One of the other fantastic benefits of a structured strength program is the boost in confidence, coordination and self-esteem that naturally occurs.


KEY INFO:
The more muscle you have, the higher your BMR.


Increasing your muscle mass AS you lose bodyfat can compensate for the decline in your BMR induced by weight loss.



Mmn... so now you know!
...and
now YOU are a little more empowered & organized.

Stay in touch for 'DROP THOSE POUNDS' number 2
coming up next time on PETEtheTrainer


Here is today's TOOLBOX TIP



TOOLBOX TIP
#2. PREPARE RIGHT ...we already know you don't have time, just write down (in your day planner or program your Blackberry) your 'gym time ' just like any other important appointment (yes, it's an appointment with yourself for some 'ME' time). Show yourself DEEP RESPECT and DON'T No-Show or Last Minute Cancel or Show Up Late. Personal Empowerment is all about keeping your word to yourself, your family and those around you.

Final word today GOOD LUCK..! to Bronwen on her first skydive.
She's getting in top shape for her tour of duty in Afghanistan.

...see you Wednesday for your next 'balls to the wall' workout.

The 10 LAWS For LIVING




The 1o LAWS For LIVING
What they forgot to tell the rest of us
according to Pete the Trainer

Some months before you were born, you were enrolled in a full time informal school called LIFE

1. You will, proceed through stages, via lessons ...some will graduate each stage with honors, some will try to cheat, don't... you will only crash and burn, you'll also look pretty stupid, and probably ...smell pretty bad too..!

2. You will receive only one body ...you may not like it, you may at times even hate it, but remember, it's your ONLY physical mode of transportation for your entire life-time ...it works best if you learn to love it, exercise it, feed it, and maintain it with the utmost respect. kindness and gratitude.

3. REMEMBER: There are no mistakes ...only lessons ...these will consist of mostly hands-on experiments of trial, error, and TEMPORARY confusion, this is known as 'Growth'. The 'failed' life experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately 'work' ...and by the way, between experiments, use this mantra: 'fake it 'till ya make it'. so in a nut-shell ...act like a WINNER ...don't be a whiner.

4. All lessons are repeated until they are PROPERLY learned. Lessons will be presented to you on a sliding scale, in various forms, via a 'learning curve'. When you have learned a particular lesson you'll be given YOUR next lesson ...and a fresh new learning curve will be activated for you.

5. If you are experiencing, SHOCK , GUILT, SHAME and/or Blame, you are probably on the wrong learning curve.

6. You have been given a dynamic expandable imagination, relax, you're allowed to use it, but don't waste time concentrating on being right. Remember, it's about being successful at sharing the gifts provided by the earth, the universe and beyond.

7. The other people you notice, are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person, without that thought reflecting a love or hate, in or about you.

8. The success you experience in life is 99% up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need right now, you just have to find where they are being kept ...how you use them, will influence the QUALITY of your life, and how many ongoing opportunities for FUN, you create.

9. At times, your life may seem to be like, a crap sandwich, just know, if you have enough 'bread' you probably won't notice the crap.

10. All other 'life' answers, lie within you ...to unlock the answers simply, RELAX, look, listen, and trust ...always remember: The Law of Cause & Effect, is the GOLDEN RULE ...everything else is negotionable.

GET YOUR HEAD ON STRAIGHT ...have all the correct facts and know how to use them



NUTRITION: The Facts
This means Foods that nourish your body, give you energy, and allow you to grow


Knowing HOW to organize your nutrition is the most important of The 3 foundational pillars of health and fitness (correct Training & correct Recuperation are the other two).


Without these 3 foundational pillars 'in place', you will never create the condition known as Positive Anabolic Mode TM - this is a created 'life condition' where you are thriving physically, mentally and spiritually ^ I'll be elaborating on this vital subject later P.


You become what you eat

























Consuming LOW GLYCEMIC foods & drinks of the correct portion size
at the correct time for your goal will give you the most positive results, and propel you
to your health and fitness goals faster.
There are 3 'subconscious' reasons why YOU eat or drink.

1) for Comfort
2) for Entertainment
3) for Purpose

To start to organize your 'fitness nutrition' (otherwise known as CLEAN EATING) you''ll need to purge your pantry.
This is how you do it: Take a look at the ingredient labels on all the foods and drinks (including breads & baked items & meats etc.). If you see any of the 3 poisons listed below, replace them with organic versions, The following is a list of ingredients that will side track your dream of creating a toned,fit, healthy bodyif you don't eliminate them from your nutritian. There are more ...but these are the worst of the worst.

The 3 Poisons
1 High Frucose Corn Syrup (this cheap & potent goo is in most supermarket type foods)
2 Partially Hydrogenated (usually in baked goods and breads)
3 If you see the word ENRICHED without the word ORGANIC on the packaging it just means chemicals used.

Ask youself "where am I with my 'eating' habits right now"..?
...do I eat re-active (in need of) or do I eat pro-active (in charge of)?
Start to become PRO-active, in your food selections, as apposed to mindlessly throwing stuff down your throat because you're 'starving' or you're craving it.

Make sure each morsel of food, each sip of liquid contributes to your 'stated' wish to 'get fit & healthy'

HERE'S AN EXAMPLE OF RE-ACTIVE EATING
IF THIS IS HOW YOU FEED YOUR BODY ...we need to talk



HEART ATTACK or STROKE ANYBODY?


YOU need to know the REASON something is passing your lips.
Just realize, I'm NOT saying you should NOT eat for comfort & entertainment,
what I am saying is...
look at where JUST eating for comfort and entertainment gets you

...can you say CATABOLIC COUCH POTATOE

FAIL TO PLAN means your really planning to FAIL



WAKE UP!

Yours In Service

Pete the Trainer
Personal Empowerment Systems Inc.


Everyday, as a Personal Trainer & Life Coach, I partner with wonderful people who are literally reinventing their bodies, reinventing their lives and living a 'life quality' full of creative energy to spare. I'm excited to get to know you better, and earn your respect, trust and ongoing confidence.

I work and consult with many kinds of people in many different circumstances. Each Client, although looking to create similar results, presents individual circumstances, issues and well... bagage that needs to be creatively addressed
My passion is to guide my Clients to release their full potential and achieve all their health & fitness goals. A typical consultation or work-out session with me is, a energy-generating, learning experience, with a large serving of empowering fun.

My background is in the martial arts and kinesiology, I have been teaching for over 30 years. I specialize in Exercise Performance, Personal Empowerment Planning, and Goal Achievement.
I am certified worldwide by The NFPT (National Federation of Professional Trainers), APEX and 24 Hour Fitness.

I'm originally from London, England. I'm based in Las Vegas, Nevada USA.
When I'm not 'in town' I travel the world teaching and conducting boot-camps, workshops and seminars. I am very good at what I do, and I look forward to proving my value to you as you bring your dreams and goals to reality

if you're just starting ...or re-starting your health & fitness journey
and you're ready to start uncovering your hidden assets, you might want to
keep the following 4 Progress Pointers in mind


1 Don't waste money: It's OK to test the waters, in fact I recomend it
...Start with an investment of say 3 introductory lessons so you can start to feel more comfortable with strength training machines, free weights and cables along with free-style exercises (functional fitness). This will give you a better understanding of how to proceed to the next level - and maybe starting an actual taylored program of structured exercise continuance and correct nutrition, according to your goals. This will give you a SERIOUS foundation of knolledge and fitness that you can REALLY build your dream body from. Now remember ...just wanting to get fit & healthy won't get you out of a downward spiraling rut. You've GOT to have a burning passion to make something good happen!

It's crucial (for fast progress) to have a good grasp of the basic principles involved for your particular situation.
It's smart to get lessons! ...so you can learn correct form, correct breathing, correct hand & foot placement, correct exercise performance.
How did you learn to drive? ...by osmosis? ...I know you didn't!
You can participate in a foundational 5 lesson structured plan that is taylored especially for your goals for a very reasonable investment, and then if you wish you'll be equipped to go it alone if you wish - you'll be able to train safely and sensibly AND create positive results for yourself.
Realize, you can't put complete quality information into your nervious system, by just watching other people, then stumbling and fumbling your way through. When it comes to working out correctly, it falls into two classes of approach ...first class and no class.
In other words you're either stumbling & hoping like an amature, or tuned-in & training like a professional. You can tell the amature trainees in the gym ...they're the ones working up a sweat, with awful dangerous form, always there, but their bodies don't look any different from week to week.

When organizing your Fitness Foundation it's important to have at least an initual PROFESSIONAL FITNESS ASSESSMENT and GOAL EVALUATION conducted.
There's usualy no charge at most gyms for this service ...there's no charge for this service at my gym. A fitness foundation is the first thing you need to establish when you're just starting to learn a program of structured exercises and starting to align your nutrition requirements or 'starting over' after a long layoff from the fitness lifestyle.

It's important to discuss your goals and concerns and get answers to your immediate questions before you step foot on the 'floor'. This will help you feel more comfortable and confident when using all the gym's facilities.
Part of my responsibility as your trainer is to keep accurate records for tracking your progress and for program ajustment purposes
We'll start your record keeping by noting your goals ...and if you're not sure how to 'activate' a goal, this would be a good time to get this aspect under your belt.

During your FITNESS ASSESSMENT and GOAL EVALUATION (FAGE) we'll measuring the following statistics and then show you how to correctly perform an appropriate 'Push' 'pull and a 'squat' type of exercise, so you can get a 'hands on' feel, under safe, professional conditions.

These are your 'BASE STATISTICS' that we'll be log in your Fitness Foundation Profile

'Starting' Date
'Starting' Lean Mass
'Starting' Bone Mass
'Starting' Symmetry
'Starting' Body Weight
'Starting' Body Hydration
'Starting' Resting Heart Rate
'Starting' Body Fat Percentage
'Starting' Training Heart Rate
'Starting' BMI (Basal Metabolic Rate)

We'll check your Posture via The Kinetic Chain Test
This is also known as 'The One Minute Test'
This will indicate which exercises YOU should avoid at this time and which exercises should be part of your Fitness Foundation. We'll also check your Walking style to check how your posture could impact your workout style. Your BASE information will be updated every 4 weeks. (although each time you train, your new information will be added to your profile).

2 Don't waste time: Not having a set plan and just making stuff up as you go along and hoping you don't get hurt is a waste of time. You'll need a well thought out, organized, and proven plan that is based on a formula that you can follow on your schedule (one do-able step, at a time). Although quality results can't be rushed, significant noticeable results can be created in a relatively short time when you put all the pieces of the puzzle together correctly.

From your very first workout you're going to feel better emotionally (as well as physically)

...In two weeks of professional training you will notice you're starting to look a whole lot better too, and if you can hang tough and stay committed for the first month, you will have succeeded in making health and fitness part of your lifestyle.

* If you're thinking, O.K. already ...LET'S get started...!!!
GO GRAB a friend and have them take your before pictures
Arms up - Front, Left Side, Right side and Back.
Wear somthing that shows plenty of skin.
Repeat every 4 weeks, same outfit, same 4 poses.
O.K. so they're NOT your favourite pics right now BUT
give yourself 5-6 months and those pic are gonna get flashed
about as the questions from coworkers and friend start to
wake up to your drastic change for the good!

3 Don't waste effort: During each lesson, I'll teach you the principles involved so you can correctly perform each exercise movement or use a piece of equipment, so you are always in 'safe mode' and not risking an injury ...and of course, using the least amount of energy to get the most results.

Before we go any further, let me ask you this...

HOW MUCH of your potential do you want to use?

The reason I ask is ...I've notice there ARE some folk (based on their actions) who don't want to use 100% of their potential, because they miss out parts of their program, or add extra details.
I'm still not sure why some people induge in this form of self sabotage, maybe it's a trust issue, a rightious bent, or maybe the old 'fear of success' syndrome ...Mmn ...I still havn't quite figured this one out yet! ...people pay me a chunk of change ...and then round about 6 weeks into their program when they are starting to look REAL GOOD...they get stupid and kick there dream to the curb, usually because of some limiting belief that re-emerges in their life. I'm glad this happens rarely ...so don't let this happen to YOU ...more on this subject later.

It's true, there are NO stupid questions ...mis-informed questions? yes!

A common question: Can you show me which exercise I should do
to get a 6 pack?

...well I understand, where and why, this question is put like this, firstly the answer is ...any exercise that allows you to lower your bodyfat to around 6% should show off your set of bricks (although they may be shallow bricks) ...underneath the blubber we've all got some kind of 6 pack that's been there all along. But taking a helpful & diplomatic approach to this question...
It really depends on the individual's understanding of training and nutrition ...more on these two important subjects later.

If you ARE ready to use your full potential and want to dramatically increase your Flex Appeal AND reveal the real you, grab something (healthy) to eat, something refreshing to drink, stay tuned ...and read on

Each 'easy to follow"step of any of my programs are synagistically designed to safely create the maximum results, period! You won't find any fluff, outdated material or anything that is NOT principally based.
There's a big difference between working out correctly, and working up a sweat, it's a mistake to think if you're sweating, you're progressing, I see it all too often with the 'amature' trainees.

Here's A Good Program To Start With
If you're just starting out, or would like to polish up your technique and update your knollage base, consider The 12 WEEK BODY MECHANICS 101 PROGRAM TM
Each of the 36 workouts are synergistically connected (for maximum return on your efforts, and of course should be completed as laid out with nothing left out, nothing added).

4 Don't waste opportunity: The fastest results are created by what you do between workouts. Your body changes and improves when you sleep and rest up, this is called recuperation. The quality of your sleep has a huge impact on the results you get from your workouts (you are actually only stimulating growth during a workout).
Recuperation is especially important when you are just starting to build your fitness foundation.

One more thing ...it's true! You're gonna feel some discomfort and post workout stiffness after each workout. This is known as DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness). There are effective ways to handle this and we'll be discussing this a little later here on the blog ...SO realize, for the first month of your training, you'll be earning your 'badge of honor', BUT once earned...
it ALL gets A LOT EASIER.

If you are truly, really ready to get serious about organizing your health and fitness,
reserve your Fitness Assessment today ...and start enjoying the quality of life you want.
