Blog Series: Meal Planning Mistakes Part III - "Don't Limit Your Carbs!" |
| 3/12/2008 9:47:56 PM |
Carbs get a bad rap, plain and simple. People think carbs are bad and they try to avoid them. While certain carbs should be avoided, the majority of your calories need to come from carbs in your meal planning. Carbs should comprise about 40% of your calories - give or take.
Your fitness training routine is fueled by carbs. Without them, your fitness training plan will... Read More |

| 3/3/2008 10:15:34 PM |
| "The Biggest Loser" is a phenomenon, and has probably spawned many people to start fitness training and concentrate harder on meal planning.

| A lot goes into what makes your body burn more fat, but putting genetics and diet aside and placing everyone on a level playing field - people place too much emphasis on cardio to change their body composition.

Your Body Is Your Lifelong "Vehicle" |
| 2/21/2008 8:16:24 PM |
Why do people put so little value in taking care of their body? They have their body for life, but fitness training, proper meal planning, and general maintenance seem to get put to the side on a daily basis!
How about a new car? We all take care of a new car, right?
- Make sure we don't work the engine too hard
- Get regular oil changes
- Keep it clean with... Read More

Online Fitness Training Offers "No Excuses!" |
| 2/19/2008 8:52:04 PM |
| I recall about 5 years ago when online fitness training was just coming on to the scene, but there wasn't much of a market for getting exercise plans off of the internet. Now personal training is offered along with weekly meal planning for a micro-fraction of what you would pay in-person!! To be quite honest, nothing replaces someone there with... Read More |

Don't Judge a Fitness Training Gizmo By Its Cover! |
| 2/18/2008 6:47:54 PM |
In the personal training world, many of my peers look down on all of the infomercial fitness training gadgets, but I tend to look at things from a slightly different angle. While I agree, many of the fitness training gadget companies make claims that nobody or nothing could live up to, I think they have value.
Much like a post I had a few weeks ago... Read More |

How You Can Achieve Permanent Weight Loss! |
| 2/12/2008 8:57:52 PM |
The word phrase "permanent weight loss" implies "for a lifetime", right? So why do millions of Americans spend billions of dollars per year on fad diets, fat reducing pills, and gizmo exercise machines?
Instant gratification. Plain and simple, people want change, and they want it now...but can you blame them? We get everything... Read More |

Fitness Training & Meal Planning Lead To More Sex! |
| 2/11/2008 9:43:04 PM |
| Research has proven time and time again that if you lose weight and stay fit you are more apt to have frequent sex in your relationship. It makes sense, right? If you lose weight, you have more confidence in yourself...if your partner loses weight, you may find them more attractive. I think most people would agree with that...but I think fitness...

Meal planning is the first step to weight loss and better health. |
| 2/11/2008 12:16:56 AM |
| Many people miss the point when it comes to weight loss and the pursuit of the 'perfect body.' If you are determined to have the perfect body then you will likely never be satisfied. It will monopolize your entire life. For me the perfect body would be when I had a healthy strong body. Meal planning is the best way to start on your quest for a... Read More |

Fat People More Likely to Die in Auto Accidents... |

Being in the personal training business for 25 years, I understand the psychological nature of overweight people...this article I read just bothered me a bit.

Personal Training - The Choice is Not Rocket Science! |
| 2/6/2008 10:11:50 PM |
I read an article recently titled "Tips To Help Pick a Personal Trainer". The author spoke about education, motivation, and accountability as the key components to look for in a trainer. Having been in the personal training business for 25 years, I think a lot of people over-analyze the process when choosing personal training.

Our Troops Are More Important Than Our Own Kids! |

It's true! We are putting more value in those protecting our country, than we do in those who are the future of our country! Why, you ask? Here is a paragraph from a recent article about the fitness training standards being raised at Fort Lewis:

| 1/21/2008 7:24:06 PM |

I read this in a recent article in USA Today...check out the drastic measures people maytake in order to be their ideal weight...
