The
Fitness Robot Invasion

raising my 22-month old & 2 teenagers & working full time.
I am gaining weight and feel tired and weak. I want to get
into shape and really need help in doing so. I can't seem
to get started! Help." Read

Sugar,
Sugar, Sugar
"I used to drink a lot of sodas but I switched to juices and
water. Will drinking a lot of juice effect my ability to lose
weight? I see that they're higher in calories and carbs than
diet sodas." Read

It
Takes More Than Exercise, Good Foods and Smiles
Successful people see the outcome. They visualize themselves
achieving their goals. Successful people picture themselves
at the finish line, 20 pounds lighter, with great skin, flexible,
and in great health. Read

Heart
Rate Formula Exposed
Intuitively, regardless of the formula or not, I've never
been big on heart rate. I feel it has trickled down from performance
athlete training and has no place in recreational training.

Starting
a Workout: Getting Your Body to Move
(Part 5) Have you ever been overwhelmed by exercise
or your exercise program? Maybe you thought you didn't have
enough time to exercise 30 minutes a day. Or maybe you knew
that you needed to workout for an hour and all you had was
fifteen minutes. Read

Body
Sensing for Maximum Results
(Part 4) Just recently, I was speaking to a client
about running and she said she was running 2 miles a day.
Unfortunately, she told me she hated it and the minute she
starts she wants it to be over. Which is certainly not any
fun, right?! If I hadn't intervened she would have joined
all the other ranks of disappointed and dejected, should-have-been
runners. Read

Get
More Mitochondria... Get More Energy
(Part 3) Doesn't walking a couple of miles wear you
out, not raise your concentration and get you moving? For
most people this is the case. They walk, run or exercise only
to find themselves whipped, sore and bruised. It doesn't have
to be this way. You don't have to go through your life with
little energy--just enough to make it through the day and
then crash on the couch. Read

Your
Einstein Inside: Releasing Your Energy and Creativity Through
Foods
(Part 2) Instead of THINKING that you have low energy,
you begin to BELIEVE that you ARE a tired person, that you
ARE a lazy person, that you ARE the type of person that doesn't
have any energy. Getting down on yourself
and believing you ARE the things that your food is causing
you to be is a challenging battle to fight and is probably
why many people experience failure with their diets and exercise
programs. They truly believe that they
are what their food is making them. Read

Fighting
Fatigue and the American Diner Breakfast
(Part 1) When your system gets a glob of eggs, meats,
cheeses, sauteed vegetables, toast, butter, 2 coffees, cream,
sugar and fried potatoes--what is known to us as the "American
Diner Breakfast" it goes into a panic and rushes all your
blood to your stomach to take care of the crisis. You suffer
by falling asleep or feeling like a truck hit you--hard. Read

BMI,
the NFL and You
At the end of last week, Thomas Herrion, a lineman for the
San Francisco 49ers died after a preseason NFL football game.
He was 23 years old and 330 pounds. His Body Mass Index (normally
below 30 or so for athletes) was 41. He was morbidly obese.
The doctors say that arrhythmia (irregular heart beat) was
the probable cause of his death. Read

Do
You Know What's Keeping You From Your Fitness Goals?
The most prevalent cause of fitness failure may not be what
you think it is. It has nothing to do with heredity, gender,
attitude, laziness, motivation or the always-prevalent gimmick,
quick-fix diet market. Read

Create
Your Own Emergency Workout Kit
Jon carries around a bag in his car that he likes to call
an "Energy Addict Kit." Inside are many different things that
will help him through the day if he needs more energy. What
I thought was fantastic is that two of the items are gym clothes
and an extra pair of sneakers! Read

Doctors
Say: Fruits and Veggies Might Be Good for You
I'm concerned that money is being spent incorrectly. I'm concerned
that it took a study at Tufts (where researchers are paid
handsomely) to decide that eating a banana might have more
nutrient value than a banana pill where all the nutrients
are stripped of water, enzymes and LIFE. This is pretty straightforward
stuff as far as I'm concerned. Read
