So, if you are one of those women and self confidence is something you are struggling with, I invite you to watch this video and learn about the foundation for self confidence and a simple exercise that will help you raise your … [Read more...]

You might be surprised to hear that even fitness trainers want to lose weight sometime. Well, this is not the first time in my life and by now I have developed a safe weight loss system that I know works every time. If the pounds have secretly crept up on you and you have become concerned about your health, I know exactly how you feel, because it has happened to me. The last time I lost a lot of weight was after suffering from hypothyroidism for three years. Those were three miserable years of weight gain, fatigue and depression. After the doctor wanted to put me on anti-depressants, I said … [Read more...]

Good Health Does Take Work!

I continue watching The Dr. Oz Show every day and wanted to share the following observation I have made with you. It appears to me that the obese people on the show are surprised and clueless about how they got to be this obese (and unhealthy). I get the feeling that they didn't know there was actually effort involved in staying fit and healthy. So, if you are one of those people that never thought about what it takes, no matter what your current weight or level of fitness is, I want you to wake up now! Except for a tiny percentage of people that are genetically gifted, you have to take … [Read more...]

I've never been much of a cook, not because I don't like to cook, but because I either don't have the know-how or time. Last Christmas I gave myself the best gift ever, a fuzzy logic rice and slow cooker! Now, the really good news is that it hasn't been collecting dust, but with the help of a great cookbook that I purchased at the same time, I am using the rice cooker regularly. What's amazing is that from the very first dish on, every meal has turned out perfect. So far, I've been using the rice cooker to make steel-cut oats, several types of risotto, jook - a type of rice soup, and quinoa. … [Read more...]

Looking Good: From The Inside Out

December 23, 2009 By Biggi View Comments

The way you feel on the inside is mirrored by your facial expression and posture. The way you feel about yourself shows in the way you act and speak. Motivation What does this have to do with fitness, you wonder. Well, in order to change the outside of your body, you have to change the inside first. You need to become aware of the reason you want to change and also find out what has kept you from changing in the past. Awareness is the first step. You are important, you are worth it, and you deserve to be your best. It's so easy to feel that way about someone else, like your children for … [Read more...]

Are You Drinking Enough Water?

October 17, 2009 By Biggi View Comments

I don't think I ever drank plain water growing up. I mostly drank milk and juices. This seems so strange to me now. You might have grown up the same way and it is now really hard for you to form the habit of drinking water. Well, first off you might wonder why you should care. Why would you want to drink water? It's no secret that a large part of our body is made up of water. So obviously, if the body consists of water, it needs water, just like it needs all the other nutrients it consists of or needs for energy production. Most people that don't drink enough water are in a constant state … [Read more...]

Working Up A Sweat

September 14, 2009 By Biggi View Comments

If you aren't sweating profusely when doing cardio, you will not see the results you expect. To see real results and reap the rewards from your aerobic workouts you'll have to sweat by the bucketful. You can get leaner and fitter by doing intense cardio workouts, which in turn will burn fat off and at the same time improve your cardiovascular fitness. This type of workout will also increase your metabolism, and not just when working out, but for a long time after as well. To maximize your metabolism (and everyone is able to increase their current metabolism) combine your cardio efforts with … [Read more...]

Top 3 Tips For Getting A Flatter Stomach

August 28, 2009 By Biggi View Comments

1) Combine Strength and Cardio Training Crunches are designed to tone, shape, and strengthen your abdominal muscles, however, they don't necessarily help getting rid of the layer of fat on top. So, to get your toned abs to actually show, you need to combine your strength training with high intensity cardio intervals. I recommend you do no less than 30 minutes of aerobic exercise 3 - 4 times a week. This can include jogging, cycling, or taking a kick-boxing class at your local gym. While you will burn fat during strength and cardio training, the combination of the two will also maximize your … [Read more...]
