Hot Fitness Tip of the Week

Exercise science and medical professionals recommend progression-continued improvement-for health, functional ability and optimal quality of life. Progression, means the gradual increase of overload placed on the body during training. Continued improvement requires systematic increase, which can be accomplished in several ways. Increase the load, add repetitions, alter the speed of the repetitions according to program goals, shorten or expand the rest period between sets, increase the volume of overall work, or a combination of these. Variation of volume and intensity are emphasized for long-term progression. Both linear and non-linear periodization, or variability, may be used for effective variation of exercise. Linear refers to a high initial training volume (number of repetitions and sets) and low intensity (less weight), gradually progressing to lower volume and higher intensity (more weight). Non-linear periodization enables variation by rotating different loading schemes for the core exercises of different parts of the body over a seven-to-ten-day cycle. more...

Words of Inspiration

LIVING WITH COURAGE : Compare Your life span to lighting a candle. If your life is being controlled by your fears, you are most certainly cheating yourself. Courage is the mental muscle that conquers fear. Like all muscles, the more you use them the stronger they become. Courage is not something you are born with, it must be developed. A little courage leads to more. Individuals who fail to develop courage, remain confined in mental prisons and face each day as mental lightweights. Learn to live the way you like by no longer living as you dislike. Forge into the remainder of your day with an abundance of courage. That's living!

Article of the Week

Yoga for Runners: Cancer patients often find themselves in distracted states of mind bombarded as they are by frightening, sometimes contradictory, information, subjected to invasive, painful procedures, and not-always-compassionate medical care. When our minds are so grievously disturbed, we may find it impossible to make crucial decisions or relate satisfactorily to our family and friends. Practicing Pranayam, meditation and relaxation help in reliving tension. When the tension is released, energy can flow more easily in the body and allow patients to experience a sense of well-being and strength a balance of body, mind, and spirit. The most compelling reason why cancer patients are turning to yoga is that: It shows us how a person stricken with a serious illness, instead of ""running away"" from their threatened body, Patients can connect more strongly to their body and Begin to experience self-empowerment and well-being. Improved sleep pattern. more...

Top 10 Bonehead Workout Mistakes

Common workout mistakes” has always been a very popular topic in fitness publications. But no matter how many times this subject is re-hashed, you almost always hear about the same half a dozen or so mistakes, including poor form, overtraining, going too heavy, not stretching, not warming up, yadda, yadda yadda. Ironically, you seldom hear about the biggest mistakes of all. I call these humongous bloopers “bonehead mistakes.” more...

Why Most Diets Fail

Ever thought of, known someone, or gone on a diet? You probably
have. The word diet seems like a common word for someone who is
unsatisfied with their current physical condition. The problem
is that most diets usually end up failing in the long run. Going
on a “diet” usually refers to eating alot less food, in the hope
that it will make us lose those unwanted pounds of fat. Although
there are different types of diets, 90% of them stress a strong
reduction in calories one way or another. more...

Is It Really Necessary to Count Calories?

Q: Dear Tom, I recently read Bill Phillip's book, "Body For Life," and he says that you don't need to count calories and that instead, you should count
"portions." I read your article on calculating calories and you seem to advocate strictly keeping track of calories. Do you really think it's necessary to count calories every day? Isn't that unrealistic? more...

Music: The Magic Exercise Supplement

Music is one of those health topics where personal experience meets science and clinical trials. Several studies have been done on the effect of music on exercise. In fact, I could go on and on listing them. Most studies do show a positive effect to music during a workout, but then there are some studies that show no effect to music during a workout. In my opinion it is hard to run any sort of trial involving music because everyone’s taste in music varies, as well as many other factors that also vary. more...

How To Use Fat Burning Foods To Get Rid Of Those Extra Calories Now Easter Is Over

Alright, have you finished all the chocolate yet ? Is it time to eat some fat burning foods ?

I haven't - so much chocolate - it's not funny.

So what do we do now.

Over the Easter break, most people would have consumed far more chocolate, than they normally would have. Once it's eaten they just return to their normal diets, however, some (and I admit, I am one of them) get a taste for it, and find it difficult to just stop at the Easter chocolate............ more...

The Facts About Protein and Fat Burning Foods

Protein in food is made up of chains of different combinations of twenty amino acids. Eight of these amino acids your body can't live without and can't manufacture (termed indispensable amino acids). Your body needs to be provided with these amino acids from food, and the best way to do this is to eat foods high in protein.

I find it interesting that most of these amino acids actually come from plant sources, which we obtain either by directly eating the plant, or by eating the meat of an animal that has eaten the plant.1........... more...

Are fiber supplements Fat Burning Food ?

If you're taking a fiber supplement or eating a high fiber diet, you may inadvertently be consuming fat burning food.

Everyone knows that fiber is something you need in your diet to be healthy, and that primarily it relieves constipation by increasing the bulk in stool to allow easier bowel movements.

Lipase What Is It and How Could It Help To Burn Fat Naturally

Lipase is a natural enzyme that is primarily produced in the pancreas but can occur in the mouth, and its primary function is to breakdown fat in the intestines. It cannot be found in food and one small study found that it had beneficial effects of reducing bloating, gas and fullness. It is also theorised that if you are deficient in lipase, you may be lacking in nutrients that are fat-soluable (A,D and E).

So what does this mean ?.......... more...

What Is Fat Burning Food and 5 Ways To Implement It Into Your Diet

Many people (especially on the net) claim that you can eat fat burning food exclusively and lose weight. While I do support the idea that it's not how much you eat when trying to lose weight, its what you eat - I do not support the idea that if you eat a lot of strawberries almost to the exclusion of other foods, that you will lose weight. In fact I have heard stories where people have actually done this, eaten a lot of strawberries and pineapple because their friend said that they would help them lose weight, only to find that they'd gained weight.......... more...
