How To Take Advantage Of Summer Weather And Lose Weight

Posted by Saito on May 18, 2009

summer_fun

I find that I have to take certain steps and plan ahead for summer time workouts, mostly because of the hot weather. I’ll explain why:

1. Hot temperatures keep me from doing my workouts in the middle of day when it’s the hottest, I have to do everything mainly in the morning.

2. I seem to have the most energy in the morning anyway so all of this works out, I think everyone on average workouts out in the morning.

– – – – – – – – – – – – –

Here is what I suggest you do in order:

1. Early in the morning you should start out with your aerobic routines. Doing this first will actually help you have more energy during the rest of the day, anytime after morning hours you won’t have the same amount of energy as you started.

2. After aerobics you should go into your weight lifting routines. Try to do it in the morning as well.

3. When after you’ve completed your work out routines (if you don’t already have a routine check out the Workout Routines section) lunch should be nutritional and balanced. Milk, veggies, fruits, grains you know a completely balanced meal.

4. After lunch try and spend some time outside, the sun is very good for your skin and body growth.

5. When you feel wiped just rest, even if it’s outside. Rest is always important.

– – – – – – – – – – – –

If you keep a schedule like that in summer time you should see results within at least a month, keep a good schedule going and enjoy summer vacation!

Stay tuned for the next update!

Weight Lifting: Protein Powder

Posted by Saito on March 27, 2009

I have been taking this protein powder for about four months now and I am seeing some surprising results, it really works!!

Q & A

Really? It works? How does it work?

The protein powder I have been taking for the past four months is called “Night Trainer”. It’s a special chocolate flavored drink your only supposed to take before bed time. Its supposed to help you regain energy after a work out, you don’t tire as easy when you lift weights.

Alright I’ll take your word on that, how do I take it?

It comes with a special scooper already, you take a single heaping amount of Night Trainer into your cup. Add some milk stir it in and drink it. Its a really sticky mixture and can freeze like cement on your spoon, so just be aware =D.

– – – – – – – –

It has great flavor, I have not been disappointed with it the benefits have been great!! You may start to see better results after about two weeks (and a bit more definition with your muscles)

You can get it here: Night Trainer

Well that’s it for now, stay tuned for the next update =D.

6. Shoulder Shrugs

Shoulder Shrugs

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

 

These are basic workout routines when starting out with weights. Depending on your size and girth with weights only choose the amount of weight you can handle. Start out with lighter weights then move up as your muscles get used to the strain. With every workout you do, even ones without weights do at least three sets. Each set you do try doing at least fifteen reps. If you can, use a back brace when you workout so you’re back is supported.

Well that’s all for the first part, stay tuned for the next update 😀

I’m Tired Of Being Overweight!

Posted by Saito on January 13, 2009

Scale teen

THAT’S IT!! I’VE HAD ENOUGH, I am through with being overweight and lethargic! I am dedicating myself and this blog to helping myself and others with overweight issues, and I think I’ve found a lead toward my (and everyone’s) goals to lose all the extra weight.

My dad brought me some supplements from his work. I found one of the products extremely useful, it’s called CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) and this supplement takes away your body fat, believe it or not this product comes from beef! But in recent modern times Farmers have been feeding cows food products that take out the special effects of CLA were taken out of beef…but Wellness Partners found a way to extract the CLA 😀

In order for CLA to work it’s natural process you have to give it at least to months, keep a healthy diet and stay active like: taking a walk outside for a bit, work out by swimming, jogging, aerobics, weight lifting, pilates etc. Believe me it’s worth it! I have been on CLA for months and have noticed a HUGE difference in my body. I feel healthy, I have energy, I can walk without flab bouncing around my gut, I can go out to the swimming pool without feeling embarrassed and I can RUN! I know running is not a big deal but to someone like me who has waited a long to just run for the fun of it is a breath taking experience for me it really is :).

My dad worked out a special deal for my readers ONLY…use this code: LJ777CLA and get a two for one special offer for first time buyers this is an exclusive offer only for my readers, link: CLICK HERE! ( you have to click add to cart or you can put the coupon code in on the next page after when you click add to cart)

I will post more healthy tips and health products that help you lose weight and stay healthy 😀
