Great Fitness Concerns and Questions Answered
The great questions just keep coming in:
Here is one from Anthony…..
“…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?”
Time, the dreaded short day, week, month and year!
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.

Health & Fitness Video Coaching Philosophy of Fitness #12: STRUCTURIZATION & SUSTAINABILITY
If you want to succeed at building a healthy body, mind & spirit you would be foolish to only have a short-term focus.
In my planning and forward-thinking brain there are short-term, medium-term and long-term goals to be realized and you must develop a blueprint to stay focused.
Only then are your health and fitness habits going to be “Sustainable”.

Health & Fitness Video Coaching Philosophy of Fitness #9: THE TWO MOTIVATING OPPORTUNITIES
Hey gang,
There are two motivating factors in my opinion which allow us to shape our body image and how we view ourselves and for some people more importantly how others view us!
I feel we must try to improve upon how we become healthy through our two motivating factors which I will dub “Extrinsic vs Intrinsic” Motivators.

Health & Fitness Video Coaching Philosophy of Fitness #8: HOW YOUR BODY WORKS
Hi Fitness Buffs,
Do you know your body? I mean really know how your body works? I don’t want or need you to take a four-year University Degree in Kinesiology or Anatomy and Health Sciences like I did but I do think it would be very wise to learn how your body works and moves if you would like to stay clear of injuries for a long time.
