Thursday Fitness Tip: Define your body with eating less crap and more Good food

The Best Diet (or “Way of Eating”) For YOU is The One You Can Stick to

There is a lot of debate about the different diets.

There are the paleo folks, the low-carbers, the vegans, the balanced diet folks and everything in between.
But the truth is… all of these approaches can work.
The problem is not which diet (or way of eating) is “best,” the key is finding something that is sustainable for each individual.
Losing weight and improving health is a marathon, not a race.
What matters in the long run is finding something that is healthy, that you like and can live with for the rest of your life.

You really are what you eat!

Exercise is important to include into your lifestyle and will help to achieve the body that you desire. However, if you don't fill your body with nourishing foods, you are likely to find it difficult to reach those results!

YOU WANT HE SECRET TO FLAT ABS?
Sit-ups, crunches and planks will not cause your muffin top to disappear. But a drop in overall body fat will do that for you.
So you want the secret to great abs? The secret is a winning combination of fat burning cardio, resistance training and clean eating.

I WAS NOT feeling today's workout but got up and went to the gym by 7am. took a kung fu and a kickboxing class and did it. Remember, a shortened or bad workout is better than a missed workout. Consistency is key in whatever your goals are!

If you (or your clients) have shoulder or rotator cuff pain (or want to avoid it), add more pulling movements to your workouts. This includes both vertical pulls--chin up and horizontal pulls--rowing type motion. Your push pull ratio should be about equal. In other words, what you can do for your chest you should be able to match with your pull movement.

Today's fitness philosophy

Don't start a diet that has an expiration date....

Focus on a lifestyle that will last forever.
