Obstacles to Getting Started On Your Health and Fitness

Uncategorized Mar 07, 2022

There are three areas I come across that become major obstacles to someone’s long term health and wellness.  The first is Getting Started.  The second is Achieving Sustained Progress.  The third is Achieving the Lifestyle and Routine (without Injury) that makes you successful for years to come. 

Today I’m going to break down the first one…Obstacles to Getting Started.  You’ll hear someone say, you just need to get up and move…and if there was a mute button on the person who tells you, you’d push it in a heart beat.

Positive Body Image

Uncategorized Feb 25, 2022

Creating a Healthy Image of ourselves begins with overcoming what we’ve been taught to think of ourselves. 

 Your Weight does not define you.  This photo is of all the same weight (154 lbs) with different body types and shapes.  

They are all beautiful.  The weight does not define them or you.  Yet, most are not happy with their weight and use that as the only gage of progress. Why is that?  Well, a few reasons…

BMI has failed us.  BMI that is used by the medical field as a gage for healthiness has come with a baggage that leads to poor habits.  A high BMI tells us one thing…my weight is too high and I need to lose weight.  It tells us that I need to go on a restrictive, low calorie diet.

How to Pick the Right Chocolate without the Guilt

Uncategorized Feb 20, 2022

Eating chocolate has been associated with pleasure and guilt.  But there is a way to enjoy chocolate without the guilt. In fact, as Colin Champ, a physician dedicated to cancer prevention, writes that when eating chocolate, it promotes our body “to increase antioxidant production and reduce our risk of cancer, while leaving them more sensitive to insulin (and us with a lower blood sugar). They can also improve our blood vessel and heart function, and, much like when we eat bitter and cruciferous vegetables, stimulate our detoxification mechanisms to rid the body of dangerous chemicals.” 

That’s great, but there are loads of different chocolate...Are they all the same?  Well no.  Many companies have often replaced the healthier ingredients with sugar to sweeten the flavor and lower the cost.   But there are these key factors that you should include as a healthy way to choose the right chocolate and both enjoy and get the health benefit...
