Rocky vibes and 'eye of the tiger' is today's inspiration!

A very effective cardiovascular workout being demonstrated here by Katie. As you can see it is not about how hard you hit poor B.O.B, but it's maintaining a quick rhythm which results in a good endurance and respiratory workout.

B.O.B is FitWells Academy's in house therapist for you to let loose and relieve any built up tension from your day! Be it work, awkward people or any other common day to day stresses. Very mentally stimulating!

An 'expert' has said 50-70% of people "can't help being fat" !!!

Complete b*******. Modern life - dictated to by 'so called' experts/society has resulted in everyday/'normal' diets being considered 'healthy', when it actually causes disease & premature DEATH.

Every single meal NEEDS to be nutrient-dense. If it's not green, you've missed an opportunity. The sooner you act the better, before it's too late.

No idea how/where to begin? Let FitWells Academy take all the guessing out of it. I know how to help you. Let me help you.

ANIMAL PROTEIN

Raises cholesterol, promotes cancer, promotes bone loss and kidney disease, accelerates aging and full of saturated fat, cholesterol and arachidonic acid.

PLANT PROTEIN

Lowers cholesterol, cancer protector, promotes bone strength, has no affect on kidney's and aging and is full of fibre, phytochemicals and antioxidants.

A MEAL THAT'S NOT GREEN IS A MISSED MEAL!

Carry on following the masses if you want or wake up, it's up to you!

Every meal without greens is a missed meal. Don't give disease a chance. THIS is the magic pill you're all looking for. Use common sense and you can't go wrong.

When eating out ALWAYS think NUTRIENTS. Consistency is most definitely key. Always remember, if it hasn't come out of the ground or off a tree, you shouldn't be eating it. A very good rule to live by.

Exercise boredom and menopausal weight gain

Training:
I get it, exercise is boring. The same run,same walk,same spin,same Pilates...same whatever...”Ohhhhh it’s so BORING!” And what are you doing it for? Usually weight loss. So how’s that going for you? Mostly I hear, not very well.

I can show you some body weight moves that will suffice to keep you fitter than average joe. Trouble is, after a few weeks monotony sets in. You start to crave diversity and are at a loss to know how to remedy it. That’s where qualified people (such as myself) step in. I can take the boredom and guess work away and get you the results you want fast.

Nutrition:
Getting older and doing less causes loss of muscle mass, this in turn slows metabolism. Add to that an average of 1lb a year of weight gain between the ages of 45-60 through premenopausal alone. That equates to over a stone in total! Then things really start to spiral out of control.
Fluctuating hormones, due to menopause, also play a role in weight management. Particularly crashing oestrogen levels which can create a hunger for simple carbs and a feeling to do less. Metabolic rate takes a dive and insulin resistance starts to rise. Yes, getting to or even staying at a healthy weight can be hard work.

An experienced and trained nutritionist should know ways to tackle these issues.

If you’re in doubt give me a shout! Or, if you know anybody who would benefit from what I offer please pass on my name.

Thank you for reading, catch you next time!

BLOG #22 - INTENSITY

TRAINING

I get asked all the time: "What do i do for this? And how long do i do it for?" Well, you are not going to get anyway on any training plan without first talking about intensity. Now, i could go on for many pages about the science behind effective training. But not many would read it due to boredom of which I understand. So, i thought I'd demonstrate a simple observational example of training for hypertrophy (muscle growth). I've shown low intensity which is insufficient for purpose, medium intensity (most commonly used and still insufficient), and balls out 'i want to die' but will see results intensity, which can take many months/years to build up to and be able to realise. Enjoy our agony in the accompanying video...

NUTRITION - RDA (Recommend Daily Allowance)

Although authorities recommended protein is going up and down all the time, at present it is somewhere around 0.8mg/kg of bodyweight. That's not minimum, that's thought to be around 0.5mg/kg of bodyweight, with a huge safety barrier built in. Almost doubling it.
Truth is we only need about 10% protein from total calories consumed and actually the average person only needs about 2.5%. Did you know, most plant food (forgetting fruit), gives at least 10% protein from calories. Green veg is even higher at about 50%. Veg-heavy diets which we are supposed to be eating, based on 1500-1800 calories per day supplies about 50-70g of protein daily. With government RDA's working out at 45-55g. So, you tell me with heart disease, diabetes, cancers and many more debilitating diseases rocketing out of control which food recommendations do you think we should be adhering to?

For more advice, give me shout. You know where to find me.
