FIND A FRIEND

We all have some sort of goal in life. It can be about fitness, work, home or lots of other things. Well, when it comes to your fitness goals, I encourage you to try and find a friend to help you achieve goals.

Someone to help you keep on track, stay on course, keep you motivated and when one of you falls of the horse, your workout buddy can help lift you back into the saddle.
I know for me I find the people working out next to me at the gym, park or tennis court, extremely motivating. I use these people to keep pushing myself.
They are there every week and are reaching goals, so why cant I do it.

Do whatever you have to do. If it is weight loss, anti aging, becoming a better athlete, use the guy or girl next to you to push yourself or find a friend and do it together. Just dont give up.

See you at the gym!

Healthy Fat Food

Its official, veggies can make you fat, milk can make you fat, lean chicken can make you fat. Trust me its true. Ill lift up my shirt later, in private.

Just kidding. But not kidding about us over eating. We just eat to much. It doesnt matter how much good stuff or BAD stuff you eat, if you eat more calories than you burn you will gain weight.

This isnt rocket science, it is just a matter of fact. So next time you want to eat peas until you turn green, remember you need to eat the porportions. Yes, we need to learn to PUT THE FORK DOWN. Put it down when you start feeling full, eat smaller meals and eat smaller meals more often. I know you can do it, so get to it.

Love ya.
See you at the gym.

SUGAR, SUGAR,SUGAR

SALT,SALT,SALT.
Ever notice how you feel the next day after a night of drinking or sushi. It amazing how the salt and sugars can bloat you and make you feel strange the next day. What about the face. The face always looks fat after a crazy diet.

It is time to look at the fact that you are no longer young enough to bounce back quickly after a day of eating bad or night of partying. So, like most things in life, moderation is the key. Why do we over do it? I dont know, but I know we do.
Moderation can be the key to maintain weight loss or lose weight.

So, the next time you order you third or 9th drink at the bar, think about the next day and all the time you have already put in the gym. Just say no! Do you remember that saying dont ya?

Its Official

You do look better with a tan and shaved. It actually can take 10 years off.

So, not to sound shallow, but sometimes we all just need a pick me up. Go out get some sun, either walk or lay out and read. A little sunshine can go a long way.
Then shave all the right areas and you will feel fresh. I realize this sounds nuts, but just give it a chance.

I cant be deep every week, sometimes I have to give you a simple tip that works. So get to it. Vitamin D, here we come.

I FELL DOWN

Ok, everyone,I fell down today at the gym. Yes, me, I fell over.

Now that you have stopped laughing I gotta tell you what realization I had when I fell over that bench and landed on my ass. The realization as I was falling was, please God, dont let me stay down there. Yes, that is what flashed across my mind.

As many of you know, these past 2 years have challenged everything I know and believe in. So, as I landed and slowly got myself up. I laughed and then I got kinda
sad. No one came over to help. It was so strange, No one came over to help. NO ONE!

I understand everyone is in the their own gym world, and one of the hardest lessons in life is that often you simply have to help yourself up. So, I made the pledge to
myself today, I will always get up and if I see someone fall I will help. I know this sounds very cheesy today. But, that was my thought and I wanted to share it with you. I am greatful to have gotten up!

So get up and get to the gym!
