We hear it all the time… “I’m working out less and my muscle is turning into fat!” One of the biggest myths in weight training… muscle and fat are completely different types of tissue and can’t magically be changed. Muscle shrinks (atrophy) when not stimulated so your muscles may seem softer. Compounding the problem, most people don’t lower their calorie intake to match their now lower energy needs. The result is less muscle mass and extra calories being stored as fat… a shift in your body composition.

It really doesn’t take much to maintain good muscle composition…..make the decision TODAY! Get Started!

Give yourself three weeks to change a habit. Whether dropping a bad habit (eliminating caffeine from your diet) or picking up a good one (exercising three days a week), it takes us about three weeks to get used to incorporating new behavior. So be patient and stick with it, and before long you will crave your good actions.

Start today!

“My experience with the ‘technologies’ began the beginning of July. A friend of mine who I have been talking with online kept telling me about these ‘technologies’ and about the work being done with disabled kids and how it seemed to help them…I was definitely curious at that point. I was born with Cerebral Palsy almost 46 yrs ago. Ever since I can remember I have been looking for ONE thing that might help me…of course all the surgeries and therapy did nothing for me. Needless to say when my friend told me they could make a difference…I was doubtful.

I was lent the ‘technologies’ and how no idea what they were. I really didn’t expect any results and figured I would be eager to be rid of the stuff after a few weeks. Well…I was dead wrong! In one week…my spasticity decreased and I felt more relaxed. Then something happened that could have no other explanation to it other than my using the technologies.

In all my 45 yrs on this earth, I have never been able to use my left hand for anything other than to balance things on or help stabilize things while working with them with my right hand. I would say close to the 2 week mark…I was looking at old coins for someone…and I was using a magnifying glass to look at the dates…suddenly, I realized I had the magnifying glass in my left hand and was using BOTH my hands for this little project.

I held the magnifying glass and took the coins with my right hand and held them to it. I have an attendant who comes in every day for 3 hours to help me “jump start” in the morning…I was so excited (I think I scared her) and started yelling her name…saying…”Come here, come here…” She said…What???? I said…do you see what I am doing? She said, you’re looking at the coins…why? I said…look at my hands…then it hit her!

Oh my God…you’re using your left hand too! YESSSSSSSSS…. She said…how is this possible? I said…the only thing I can say is…it has to be the technology that I have been using. Since that day…I have been using my left hand more and more. Now I am noticing more movement in my lower extremities where it was very limited, I moved my leg/foot into position to help with my transfer from one surface to another.

Before this, she or I had to use hands to move it to where I wanted it. Once again…she was astounded…because she went to move it and it moved by itself…she said… did you see what you just did? And, I honestly didn’t realize I even did it. But…since then…I have been moving my legs voluntarily more and more…and that is quite an accomplishment! Of course I had to get all the product technologies I possibly could. What a blessing!”

Here are a few easy useful tips to help you keep from adding those dreaded winter pounds. First, drink water! Lots of it. Water helps your body in many ways irrelevant of the time of year, but it has huge weight management benefits so take advantage of them this holiday season.

Second, increase your fiber and vegetable intake, however, you can. Eat more grains during the early parts of the day and eat more vegetables in the afternoons and evenings. It makes a difference and is always one of the first things our clients are told.

Lastly, reach for produce that is in-season this winter. It will keep nutrition going into your body, and help prevent germs from attacking your immune system. Plus, it tastes better and will help keep you from reaching for the junk food.

In the southeast, look for citrus and sweet potatoes. In the northeast and midwest, look for butternut squash and apples. In the southwest, look for avocados and apples. In the the west and northwest, look for pears, asian greens, and walnuts.

Simple right!

It’s almost done…the new eFitness for Life website and the all new eDiet for Life websites are almost ready for launch. We are a couple of weeks away, but boy are we excited. They look great. The content is amazing. The new programs are going to make us even healthier.

We really think that our new sites, along with our new partnerships are going to make us THE only online health and fitness solution that can do it all, and still provide the personal attention that makes us the best now!

Keep your eyes peeled….it will be a HUGE change!

To increase your flexibility, you need to make stretching part of training program. Even if it is light stretching for just a few minutes, you should stretch every day. Serious stretching, a stretch with warm muscles for 20-30 minutes that stretches all major muscles and joints, should be done at least every other day. Remember, you should definitely feel the stretch, but it should never be painful and you should NEVER stretch cold muscles. The best time to stretch is after your training or exercise.
