According to the CDC (pretty reliable source) Childhood Obesity only affects 17% of the American Kids (WRONG) because in the same report they say 1 out of 3 kids are overweight or obese.
Child Hood Obesity is getting worst. You hear about it, people talk about it, and some even laugh about it - but it's really serious. We all know a kid or a few kids that's a little chubby, rosy cheeks, and we think that's a little cute and he/she will grow out of it. Well that's not the truth anymore.

The Tabata Workout
The definition of a great workout depends on who you ask, but there are a few things that create the kind of session that leaves both the client and the trainer feeling energized and motivated. Often times, a memorable session is determined not by how much you sweat, how fantastic your trainer is or how many hours you spend exercising, but other, seemingly insignificant factors. It is these 'little' things that make the difference between taking your workouts to the next level versus skipping the gym when you are 'just not feeling it.' The following tips will help you achieve a great workout, and are as easy to incorporate into your time at the gym as learning your ABCs:
A is for Awareness.
If you are a client, are you aware of what you are doing when you exercise, or are you focused on other things? Are you doing every repetition with intention, or are you going through the motions for the sake of being able to say that you 'worked out?' If you are a fitness professional, are you not only aware of WHAT your client is doing during his or her session, but more importantly, WHY? Awareness is often time the difference between a good workout, and a great workout. It is inevitable that everyone, both trainers and clients are going to have an off day. However, it is absolutely amazing what happens when we pay attention to what we are doing, as opposed to allowing outside things consume our thoughts and compromise the effectiveness of our exercise. The next time you are in the gym, give each moment your undivided attention, just as you would a challenging project or other important task.
B is for Breathing.
Often times, we ignore our breathing until it fails us in some way, not realizing that when we focus, our breath gives us so much strength that it is like having extra muscles! In fact, the diaphragm is the primary muscle involved in respiration, and is a very important core muscle. However, it does not get the credit it deserves because it is not visible in a bathing suit! Mastering any skill requires practice, and breathing is no different. To practice breathing, place your hands on your rib cage with your fingers wrapped around your ribs, and thumbs around your mid-back. When you inhale, your hands will move away from each other, expanding the ribcage. As you exhale, you will see your fingertips move back towards each other, as if you were knitting your ribcage closed. This breathing pattern has numerous benefits such as stabilizing the core and shoulders, and providing optimal oxygen exchange both at rest and during the most intense exercise.
C is for Core Stability.
One of the easiest ways to maximize your workout is to stabilize your core. A stable core helps to prevent injury, improve posture and create efficient movement patterns. Unfortunately, core stability is often synonymous with 'working abs,' thus many people are performing numerous crunches in an attempt to stabilize their spine. There are numerous ways to improve core stability, and most of them require little space and equipment. One of the best ways to achieve core stability is to practice ribcage breathing, either by itself while you sit in the car or wait in line, or while performing other popular exercises, such as the plank & side plank. Most importantly, be sure that you have stabilized your core before you do any type of exercise or stretch.

It’s true if you burn 300 calories in the evening, it’s the same as if you worked them off in the morning. So what’s the big deal about making your exercise routine a morning activity? Well, experts say there are real physical and psychological benefits to exercising in the a.m. Here’s why you should do it:
You’re twice as likely to exercise early. As the day moves along, we usually find there’s something else to do that’s more important than working out. If you want to exercise on a regular basis, the odds are in your favor if you squeeze your workout in the early morning hours. In fact, more than 90% of those who exercise consistently have a morning fitness routine.
Lose Weight Without Dieting
It boosts your metabolism. Some exercise experts say that when you exercise in the morning you jump-start your metabolism and it can stay on the upswing for the rest of the day. With a metabolism on the move, you burn more calories throughout the day, even when you’re off the treadmill.
It gets your mojo on. A morning workout energizes you for the rest of your day. And you’ll get a psychological boost knowing you’ve already accomplished something that’s good for you.
Your brain power gets pumped up. Studies have shown that exercise significantly increases mental sharpness. Exercising in the a.m. means you start your day without mental fogginess.
8 "Bad" Foods That Are Good For You
It reduces your appetite. Morning exercisers report that exercising in the a.m. helps them to keep their appetite on a even keel for the rest of the day -- they tend to snack, even binge, less. Not only do they eat less (since activity causes the release of endorphins, which in turn diminishes appetite), they also choose healthier portions of healthier foods.
You’ll sleep better. Even though you may have to wake up earlier to fit in thirty minutes of routine exercise you’ll sleep better that night, since exercise has been shown to help improve slumber. Plus, you’re regulating your body clock by awakening the same time each morning.
- You’ll want to do it. Folks who stick to an a.m. exercise routine find they eventually look forward to waking up in the morning, so they can get to their workout!
The full Tabata program is four minutes long, it will probably feel like the longest four minutes of your life. If you are going to try it I would recommend going light with the weights until you find your range, theres a good chance you will underestimate this workout and be begging people around you to help you off the floor.
Tabata intervals follow this structure:Push hard for 20 seconds
Rest for 10 seconds.
Repeat this eight times.
The secret to making this effective is in your sprint interval. You have to go all out, so do as many reps as you can in the 20 seconds, put it down for 10, then pick it up again and go hell for leather for another 20 seconds.
This is not a daily workout, if you can do this every day you are doing it wrong. Some people try it once a week but most end up doing tabata once or twice a month. None the less, it produces remarkable results for those brave enough to use it.
Join Todd on Mondays from 8:30-9:15pm for his Tabata program at Team Fit, Chesterfield. But, don't let the 45 min class fool you to think it is not intense.
5 Easy Ways To Get Better Nutrition...
Even If You "Don't Have Time"
One of the biggest limiting factors preventing people from achieving their goals is "time." This single limiting factor is often just a minor speed bump that can be easily by passed or run over. Nutrition is 80% of all fitness goals and when you get your nutrition to work for you, you will sleep better, play harder, recover faster, resist illnesses, and feel better. This list of 5 ways to get in more nutrition to help overcome the "time" barrier to ensure that you reach your goals and reap the health rewards along the way.
1.) Cook in larger quantities - Whether you are cooking some grass-fed beef or making a vegetable stir fry, you will save yourself time and effort if you cook more than one serving at a time. Some people make all their lunches for the week on Sunday, or even make 2 extra servings at dinner for lunch the following day. Almost anything can be stored in glass containers overnight and eaten as a meal the next day.
2.) Eat at least one third of your food raw - There are many valuable and sensitive micronutrients that can be destroyed or rendered inactive if heated or cooked. Juicing vegetables is a great way to get one third of your diet from raw foods but you must set aside time to do this as it takes time. One important note about juicing, once you juice a fruit or vegetable it should be consumed within ten minutes to gain the most amount of benefit from the nutrients.
3.) Prepare your lunch the night before - The morning can be a hectic and stressing time of the day, so why risk being late or any added stress by trying to figure out lunch and prepare it in the morning? It is much easier to eat healthier if you grab a ready-made lunch on your way out the door. This single step will save you time, money, and pounds on the scale.
4.) Eat the most nutritious foods you can -Eat foods that will give you "more bang for your buck." Choose foods that have the most nutrient density and the least calorie density. Foods like organic vegetables, grass-fed meat, fish oil (liquid is better than capsules), and fresh, clean water. Don't waste time, energy, and money on consuming nutrition-void junk foods or sugary drinks.
5.) Prioritize your health - If you are healthy it is easy to take your body for granted. For those that are sick, they realize just how important their health is. Don't wait till you're sick to realize that health is the most important aspect of life. You must protect your body like a valuable possession, not with insurance and lock and key, but by being proactive and focusing on being as healthy and fit as you can every day. This will help to fortify your body with nutrients, prevent disease, and keep you strong.
These 5 steps will help you overcome your limiting factors to take control of your health and live a more nutritious life. Don't let time get in the way of your health and happiness. Use these 5 steps today and memorize them, your health and body will be glad you did.
Serenity Tune up: How Old are You?
Detox & Renew with your BreathDo you instantly find identify with the number that celebrates how many times we've rotated around the sun? 30-something? 40-something? 50-something? Younger, older? Well guess what? How about a statistic that blows all that away? What if you learned you were at the most just 4 months old? That's right.......somewhere between brand new and 120 days old. Because 99.999% of all the cells and tissues of our body have completely restored themselves over the course of 120 days, we can truthfully say that we're never older than 4 months. However, because it's an on-going process that occurs in every part of every minute of every day of every year, we only notice wounds or injuries healing and aren't aware of all the internal processes at work. It's almost as if we're in a continual cloning process.
This is such fantastic information to move forward with in life........the implications are remarkable! Here we are more than halfway through 2011 and we're not even the same as when the new year began in January.........or are we? Here's the catch.......the .001% of our brain cells that age with our calendar years hold our memories, beliefs and feelings associated with the past. Whether we experienced happiness and success or stress and worries.......these cells continually implant us with perceptions about the world around us. The more balanced our lives, the more our cellular tissue restores balance to our body. Because breath is the most powerful and ever-present tool we have to energize and detoxify our bodies, here's one of the most effective breathing techniques we can incorporate into our daily routines:
Breath: Sit comfortably in a chair or meditation posture. Alternate nostril breathing cleanses the nostrils one side at a time. Place your right thumb on your right nostril. Inhale through the left side only, then close off the left nostril with your ring finger and release the thumb to exhale on the right side. Inhale right nostril, again close it off with your thumb, release the breath out the left side. Inhale left, close it off, release breath out the right nostril. Inhale right, close it off, release breath out left only. Continue for several more breaths, alternating sides after the inhalation. Repeat 10-20 times.
Mantra: Choose a clear intention in a word or short phrase and repeat silently with each breath. Be creative!
It's up to each one of us to take responsibility for our health.......our regeneration process can quickly become degeneration with laziness. We're as young as we feel so what better time than now, August, more than halfway through the year to renew our resolutions and create that healthier body/mind. You're only 4 months old.....live life invigorated!
