January 27th, 2013If You Want To Lose Weight…make these three weight-loss tips habit!
July 27th, 2012I’ve been a weight loss coach for over 10 years and have seen many succeed and many fail only because they weren’t yet mentally ready to change. Of those who succeeded, every single one logged their daily meals. It kept them on track. I cannot stress enough how important food journaling is. I cannot stress enough how important it is to get in all your meals and I cannot stress enough how important it is to know how your food is prepared. It’s that simple.

Work The Entire Body…Not Just The Mirror Muscles!
October 4th, 2011It seems to be a common practice for many gym goers to only work the muscles they see when they look in the mirror, (i.e., biceps, chest, and quads) and neglecting the muscles on the backside. Working the body in this manner can create imbalances in strength and poor posture which can lead to injury.
One way to make certain you train the body equally is to train opposing muscle groups together, (e.g., chest and back, biceps and triceps, or quadriceps and hamstrings). One of my favorite training protocols is “opposing muscle supersets”. Training two opposing muscles back to back without rest for three to four sets.
Whatever your method of training, don’t forget about the muscles you can’t see in the mirror!
