IS IT YOURS?? I find the winter months to be a time that many people just don’t get into their fitness routine, for whatever reason. Well, we’re now approaching the final days of February and I suggest exactly what I suggested last winter…………”Wanna Summer Body? Start training NOW!” If you set up a Blueprint that you can actually accomplish, your summer body awaits.
If you don’t set up a Blueprint………..you will have a tough time finding your summer body and then it’s WINTER AGAIN!!
Don’t let this happen to you, START NOW! Read more...(114 words, 0 images, estimated 27 secs reading time)
Well, it is coming and going just like last year. We are in week two for this new decade, new year, new whatever you want to label it. Are you on your fitness path yet? Have you started a blueprint plan to see exactly what you need to accomplish to hit your targets this year?
I worked out today did you? Remember, each and every workout you get in over the holidays is a great move toward the new year that will be just around the corner.
If you want to have a fitter body for Summer 2010 START NOW!! Don’t wait until after the holidays, you will regret the 5 or 7 or 10 pounds that some people put on if you go that route, so STOP…DO NOT GIVE IN!!
I urge you to keep a focused mind over the next 7 days and get yourself into the gym AND watch how, what, when and with whom you are EATING. Read more...(132 words, 0 images, estimated 32 secs reading time)
“…was talking to boss about working out, his bench press routine right now consists of 2 or 3 sets of 25 reps of 225, plus 2 or 3 sets of dumbell press with 85’s or so. As I try to get back into lifting, I am thinking that I should lean towards slightly higher reps than I have in the past…since I have always tended to try to move up the weight fast, leading to the occasional long-lasting injury. However, I also recall that Manny (Osteopath), suggested that high reps may put excess stress on tendons. He was also very much against doing any behind the head exercises (pulldowns or military press) and any exercises while bent over, even with light weights, unless your body was completely supported. Do you have thoughts on limiting the # of reps per set? Any thoughts on completely avoiding behind the neck/bent over exercises?” Read more...(203 words, 0 images, estimated 49 secs reading time)
Hardest thing is making time for myself, given that I’m a working mom and running from rink to rink with my boys. Its
trying to balance all that and finding the time and energy to incorporate some time for myself in the day to workout.
