In the kitchen, I've never been much of a "chemist".
Throughout high school, college, and my young professional days, my healthy eating program didn't include healthy recipes unless they had been prepared by someone else.
That isn't to say that I didn't make healthy choices when it came to food. I've always seemed to find a good balance of the appropriate carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
It is because of these healthy eating choices that I am able to enjoy a fast metabolism and am able to see the results of my aerobic exercise and weight training.
As a Personal Trainer, it can be disheartening to see many people, who do spend countless hours exercising, still have trouble when it comes to their nutritional habits.
Proper nutrition is a key element in path to overall fitness success. Without it, you may find yourself "yo-yoing" in diets that only work for a few weeks at a time.
With Halloween, Thanksgiving, and the Holidays approaching more quickly than we would like to admit, it will be important to learn more about healthy eating and the healthy recipes that will help keep the weight off for good.
To get a better idea of your starting point, try this 8-day email nutrition course, covering everything from how to prepare your mind, how to prepare your kitchen, and how the 90% rule will help you.
We'll be back soon with Part 2 of our Weight Loss Program Success installment.
In health,

Olympic workouts and you
I've always been a huge fan of the Olympics, both Summer and Winter, for as long as I can remember.
So much so, that this past weekend while visiting my parents I was glued to the TV until 3am watching Olympic previews, biographies, background stories, and interviews with athletes from every sport.
A few of them in particular caught my eye. Here's why.
As a Personal Trainer and fitness enthusiast, I draw from several disciplines to help create the most effective fitness programs and workout routines for my clients.
Some of our activities involve pilates. Some resemble various poses that you might see in a yoga class. Others are very specific to sport.
Sometimes we sprint. Sometimes we run long distances. Almost everything we do targets core and balance.
A video on Natalie Coughlin, member of the US Women's Swim Team, showed her not only training in the water, but taking yoga classes and also hitting the weights hard. The weight training clip was actually of her performing the deadlift, one of my favorite exercises.
Allyson Felix, 200m Track & Field specialist, was shown deadlifting twice her bodyweight.
What's important here is to note that the training techniques they use to prevent injury, improve performance, and get the bodies that they have can be used by you -- safely and effectively.
You may not be on the roster for the 2012 Olympics, but you can make great strides toward your health and fitness goals by learning about and using safe training techniques like your favorite Olympians.
Learn more about our Personal Training services and what we can do for your body.
See you soon and enjoy the Olympics!
