My goal is to support all I can in a fitness and a life that is full of strength and energy. For some that is getting out for a light jog or even a brisk walk. For others it is a good workout that uses light cardio and resistance to keep them toned. Then there are the extreme. I want to be able to be a help to any and all. This is a message to the Extreme folks. Although I have seem many at all stages in their fitness and jump into the Insanity or P90X workout; do there best and that is good enough.
Insanity: “The ASYLUM” is truly for those that want to or need to train like an elite athlete. It is for those that have completed and extreme program like Insanity and want to enjoy the strength and athleticism that they have achieved. It it due to be released soon. It is a great 30-day workout routine (7 workouts on 6 DVDs) that should be a great challenge. It also will have schedules that incorporate a Hybrid Insanity/Asylum workouts and an Hybrid Asylum/P90X schedule of workouts. If you want an athletic challenge or know of an athlete that wants to improve in what they do, have them contact me and join Tammy and I test ourselves.

Hello everyone, how is the new year going?

I am often not one to wish that dreams come true, but that this year we will get a good grasp on the things right in front of us. As we face the challenges of the coming year, I want to be here to encourage you towards have strength to face them.

Tammy and I started a round of P90X on January 2, 2011. It is less of a “New Years commitment" and more of a continued commitment that we have made to ourselves over the past four years. It is a commitment and it is a challenge, but it is something that we enjoy getting to do together and it has been a great journey.

So how did your 2010 go as far as your fitness goals? In which direction is your overall health going? Did you Reverse some Trends for the better?

My goals is to help you in 2011, no matter how successful last year was.

One way for those local to Truckee-North Tahoe is to come by the Truckee Rec. Center for the “Reverse the Trend Fit Club” that will start soon (I am finishing up final details). The other way that I want to encourage all of you is with a challenge during a 30 day period to workout at least 20 of those days.

The Benefits of Whole Raw eggs

Carl Daikeler posted on a friends Blog about the values of whole eggs. I know Carl is just another person like most of us, but to have him (the CEO of the amazing Beachbody Company which I am a part of) comment on your blog, that is a highlight. We all welcome ANY comment. Anyway he brings up great points on the value of the whole Egg. HERE is the post.

Looking Good Isn't Good Enough

The following is a Blog post by Tony Horton (P90, P90X, P90X+ & One-on-One). They are my exact thoughts also. Maybe spending time Workout with Tony is actually brain-washing me to think like him. I hope to think that I always had this perspective. Okay I will admit it publicly, I do not want a "Dad Body". But I do want to be a great Dad, and that is what Exercise helps me to be.

Looking Good Isn't Good Enough

I've been sitting on this title for weeks and I've been having the toughest time trying to figure how I want to approach this topic. I like to focus on tangible ideas that help me live the lifestyle I preach about. I was in Atlanta last week at a Team BeachBody event talking about the effects of fitness and clean eating on the body and brain. My mantra is based in the belief that if you exercise today you get fitter today. If you exercise and eat whole foods today, your health improves today. If you exercise today the quality of your lives improves today because the area inside the temporal lobe of the brain releases proteins and chemicals that make you happy, confident and productive. And last but not least is the effect of exercise on your bodies ability to fight disease and injuries. All these amazing things will (not might) occur the same day you choose to exercise. Wow! So good!

What makes me crazy is that most people on this planet are so hung up on their looks. I'm one of them. Who am I kidding right? I'll show off my biceps and 6-pack at the opening of a letter. It feels good to look good. I understand this as well anyone. The problem lies in the thought that changing your looks is going to make your life better or more manageable somehow. Or that thinking a better body in the future is a sustainable motivator right now. Wanting to look good is great. Thinking that looking good is the end all be all holy grail is disastrous. If looking good is your first priority then it's probably also true that you live your life for others. It means that you care more about what others think of you, than what you think of yourself. This typically results in behavior that is contrary to consistent healthy living. Weight lose thru diets, diet pills, starving yourself before events like weddings and reunions, living and dying for the numbers on your scale all reflect the vicious cycle created by the look-at-me world we live in.

I think our egos can coexist with a more important and powerful energy that can give us purpose on this planet. This energy is the desire to be better. To be stronger, healthier, smarter, more patient and more productive. It's the desire to figure out what you're fighting for. What are YOU fighting for? Is it shapelier calves or to enter and finish your first 10K? Is priority 1 to lose the belly or to do 40 perfect push-ups? Is it looking good in a red dress at a wedding in front of a bunch of people who care too much about what they look like in front of you? BORING! I'm more impressed with the fit girl who can do splits on the dance floor. Success comes from a very gentle shift in priorities. From look-like to can-do. For some this shift is as simple as an on-off switch. For others it will be like cracking a safe. If you find that life has been filled with too many ups and downs then it might be time to make the shift. Constant focus on looking good will only disappoint you. Discover that fighting to be better, brings thrills and chills you never thought imaginable.

Right On Tony!

Spring Cleaning - for our insides

While it snowed last week, based on the weather this weekend Spring may be showing itself. This is always a great time of transitioning, but with it comes the work out re-claiming the outdoors and the yearly decision of how much of it do we want to try and tame. This has already been preparing the past month in having a Garage sale, which may proof to reduce a little clutter. Although she promises to spend and Garage sale proceeds on “re-doing” some of the rooms in the house. The ladies out there know more about the details of such matters. For us guys it is often seen as more garage sale fodder, but in reality we do appreciated what you ladies can do to the what would be just our caves of existence.

So along with this year’s spring cleaning inside and out, Tammy and I are planning to do some cleaning on our insides. There is a 3-Day Cleanse that we have been researching and plan to do it on May 5-7. It came about in a fitness test group for the soon released Gospel Soul Workouts with Donna Richardson. To Jump-start successful fitness result during the testing of Gospel Soul, they had a group participate in the 3-Day Cleanse every 30-days. For now Tammy and I are just doing it in May. We are doing it during the Recovery Week in our Insanity Workout program. While we are not necessarily doing it to lose weight, the test group had those results. We are looking to just clean out our insides to help our bodies function more efficient and just better our overall health. This is not like the standard Master Cleanse that is a calorie restrictive plan, but a reduced calorie but nutrient dense plan. We look forward to see what it does for us. If you want to participate following are some of the details. Would love to have as many come along and post comments back to the Blog to report how it went.

(Steve Edwards has a good post about Cleansing, Part III )

Should Government Bail out our Laziness?

It is difficult for me to state how much of a role Government should play in this. I just know that if people could see the link of there Health to the Health care problem we would be better off. It is sad that even in our schools Physical education and many sports are somewhat a thing of the past. In insurance companies , the bureaucracy is often so great that they can not see the benefits of nutrition, much less manage it. I always think of the shocking moments on the Biggest loser when players find out what their biological age is. Many are living in bodies that are 20-years older than they actually are. I am a believer that if we where "hit" more in the pocket book about health, people would change. But it seems that we do not want to change but have government bail us out.

Here is a link of private company not government saving money on Health care.

Another great Story - This guy is 60. No magic Pill!

These Testimony's keep me going. And this guy just turned 60-years-old. That is Reversing the Trend. Watch Bob Michael's Story and be encouraged.

How to reduce Healthcare Costs

Reported here from March, 63% Support Affordable Health Care for ‘Every Single American’

This is an old stat, but I heard Scott Rasmussen say on Huckabee July 18th that were Amaricans are in agree meant with the Health care situation is that they want lower costs.

Don't we all. It is not news to most of you that I had a "Health" Revival a few years back, and maybe it is due to this that I truly see the issue less about the Insurance companies and health care providers and much more about the health of our nation and the lack of a level of personal responsibility.

If My Auto insurance rates were high, guess what, it would most likely be due to my record behind the wheel. And yes to blame all health issues on our lifestyles is a bit insensitive, and I know that accidents happen and the Fall of man is a true curse sometimes. Yet most of our health problems are due to the Choices that we make. For most they do not see it hit them directly, because they just go to the Doctor and have the Insurance billed.But all this excessive use of the system is costing us all very much. We are an unhealthy nation.

I will even say before I started taking care of myself I would spend a lot of time, some of my money and some of a providers money going many times a year to the Chiropractor. I had the pain and had the coverage, so I used it. I am thankful to say that I am no longer taxing the system with my back pain, because I have none. I am taking care of myself.

So it gets my going a little to hear all this talk about how can we lower the costs. Lets take better care of ourselves.

Now that I have alienated most, I do want to say that I am excited to help anyone that wants to Reverse the Trend that America is on and in turn reduce the costs of caring for out nations health. I know that passion about this comes out, I just hope that the Caring that I have is also seen.

Take care (and pass that care on.)

Beachbody Tools for Fitness

So what is Beachbody all about? I think of it as the Hub of the Fitness Community that is my Support. People helping people. The latest Beachbody Network News (BNN) talks about the some of the Support Tools that are found with Beachbody-TV. If you are not a Club member there is still the Support through WOWY Online Gym, Message Boards as well as a great Newsletter (my Next Message will highlight the Nutrition 911 Series from the Newsletters which is excellent).

So dig into the Site and check things out. If you have questions want additional accountability or for anything else e-mail or call me.

For the P90X'ers or just those interested in the program, there are some great You-Tube clips on the Making of P90X. They can be some fun viewing over the weekend, especially if you have gone through the Program and see Tony as a great friend.

Piracy - The Ugly truth

I really like seeing people get Fit and do what I like to call "Reverse The Trend" no matter what way they come about it. By walking, jogging, go to the Gym, or choosing to be part of the Home fitness program like I have and part of a Community of people that have the same goals. Yet sometimes people are taking the exciting steps towards fitness with Pirated material and truly that does matter to me and to the company that has been so instrumental in helping me and many others I know get my youthful energy back. So I hope all of you can find a Routine to help you and a "Why" to keep you going. And do it on the "Up & Up".
