Supplementation Tip 3
Supplement to ensure you are getting enough protein. There are different kinds of protein but the two you should be concerned with are whey protein and casein protein. Whey protein digest in about 30 minutes so its perfect pre and post workout. Casein protein digest in 2 to 6 hours and is perfect before bed. In my opinion the best brands of protein are nutrilite, optimum and bsn. I explained protein in detail in an older article so here's a link to that.
Supplementation Tip 2
Take a multi-vitamin and mineral. I can't stress the important of this enough. However what ever you do don't take centrum or any of that other crap because you they are packed so hard that they don't breakdown. If you want to see how good a multi is put it in a glass of water and see how l0ng it takes to dissolve. If it takes a reduculiously long time then its crap. If you've been keeping up with my blogs from the start you will know I take Nutrilite Double X and here are the reasons why.
According to an article in a leading medical journal, there is a link between vitamins and the reduced risk of chronic diseases. The article says that all adults should take a multi, daily. This is true even if you already eat a diet rich in fresh, whole, natural foods, because foods can't supply all the vitamins and minerals you need, at the recommended levels. If you’re going to supplement, why not start with Double X, the world's best multi?
What’s a phytonutrient and why are there so many in Double X?
Phytonutrients are naturally occurring chemicals in plants that help fight off insects, resist disease, promote healthy growth, and enhance survival. Nutrilite has always included these plant nutrients in its supplement formulas because of their health benefits to humans. The phytonutrients found in the 20 plant concentrates in Double X offer you both broad and targeted antioxidant protection.
Why are antioxidants important?
Antioxidants are your natural defenses against free radicals. Free radicals oxidize compounds in your cells – even in your DNA – starting a chain reaction of instability and damage. The antioxidants in Double X neutralize free radicals in five categories and offer protection – right down to your cells!
Why should I choose Double X over any other multivitamin/multimineral?
Because it’s the best one, made by the company that marketed the very first multivitamin/multimineral in North America. Nutrilite is the world’s leading brand of vitamin, mineral, and dietary supplements, in tablet/capsule form, based on 2006 sales. You get the reassurance of Nutrilite’s cutting-edge research; plant concentrates from natural sources, grown to the highest standards; and the nutritional insurance offered by a great multi
Supplementation Tip 1
Take Omega-3 fatty acids daily. Omega-3 fatty acid may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. In my opinion your heart is the most important muscle in your body so protect it. You can google Omega-3 for more information. I take Nutrilite Ocean Essenstials to ensure I am getting enough Omega-3s.
Personal Trainer
Man my job is so cool, I tell people what to do for a living. However its so much more than that, I change and touch peoples lives. Almost all of my clients have become my friends and earned a special place in my heart. I became a part of their lives and they became a part of mine.
When I first decided to become a personal trainer I was only interested in delivering results and making a lot of money. I calculated how many clients I needed to make 100k a year and started working on making that happen. Early on I learned you had to adjust to peoples personalities or else you will get nowhere with a lot of people. I also realized I played different rolls for different people. To some I am a friend they needed, to others I am a phycologist and to very few I am just a trainer. I'm sure I play other rolls but those are the three that I thought of off the top of my head.
Now I am an excellent personal trainer and I realized my worth and how good I really am from Bally Total Fitness in New Rochelle closing. When I made the choice to go to the Bally Total Fitness in Yonkers I didn't think some of my clients would follow. However to my surprise every last one of them decided to go there with the sole purpose of training with me. My clients try to show there appreciation in so many different ways and I want to show them all that they are appreciated as well. I will do everything in my power to help them achieve their goals in both fitness and life.
They have showed me that being a personal trainer is extremely rewarding. Now my goal as a personal trainer isn't just to make a lot of money, it's so much more than that, it's to touch and change peoples lives in a positive way.
To anyone thinking of becoming a personal trainer I say this, be a fitness professional. That is do not take advantage of your clients, treat and train them well and you will be rewarded. Be professional no matter the situation and make sure you get into this industry for the right reasons.
To all my clients I love you.
Physical Fitness
There are 10 components of physical fitness: strength, speed, power, anaerobic endurance, aerobic endurance, agility, balance, coordination, flexibility and body composition. So how fit do you want to be? If your interested in only one of these components it is relatively easy to reach the level of fitness you are after. Take bodybuilding for instance which focuses on only body composition. If you want to be a successful bodybuilder your only goal should be maximize your body composition. Sure you will get better in all other areas of physical fitness as result but you shouldn't worry about them.
Now if you want to excel in all components of physical fitness and achieve total fitness then you got your work cut out for you. You need to do anaerobic training to improve your strength, speed, power and anaerobic endurance. Anaerobic training programs include resistance training, sprinting and plyometrics but is not limited to only these. There are other anaerobic training methods like over-speed training and overload training. Aside from those components of physical fitness everything else is trained individually except body composition which is a result of a combination of anaerobic training and aerobic training plus a few other key components.
I will go over each component of physical fitness in greater detail at a later time. So be on the lookout for that.
New Website
So lately I've been busy working on a bunch of projects soon to be made public. The first thing released is http://www.newyorkfitnessprofessionals.com which is a website for me and my personal training partners to help us get ourselves out there and help generate business. The website is still under construction and should be fully built out within the next couple of days. the blog however is up and running at http://www.newyorkfitnessprofessionals.com/blog and content should start going up for that very shortly.
I official start at Yonkers Bally Total Fitness on Monday and I am very unhappy about it but I will definately make it work. Keep reading my blog post and be on the lookout for New York Fitness Professionals and if you haven't already please bookmark the home page of my website.
Personal Training
Every personal trainer has a different outlook on personal training. As personal training is not an exact science. Granted we all stick to the fundamentals because they have been proven true and work.
My approach to personal training is to not only sell sessions but to sell programs. A program entails nutrition, supplementation, cardiovascular training and resistance training. Now for the nutrition aspect I give basic nutrition advice and I encourage clients to keep a food journal. I have the perfect tool that covers both nutrition and supplementation: the Trim Body System. The Trim Body System is available through my HEALTHZONE and is reasonably priced. At a mare $230 you have the nutrition and supplementation down packed for a month.
Over 60% of the U.S. population is overweight. The Trim Body System leaves nothing to chance. You’ll have four weeks of daily meal plans from the exclusive Carb Control Strategy. Each day features three delicious meals and two satisfying snacks. A shopping list makes each week easy. You’ll have a journal and DVD to help you track your progress, learn about the program, and motivate you along the way! Along with a low-calorie diet and increased physical exercise, you’ll have the latest Nutrilite ® weight-loss support products, including delicious meal and snack bars and a special selection of premium weight-loss supplements to enhance your efforts.
Lets Make Money
Ok here's the deal, times is hard and it keeps getting harder. I have my own business which is doing OK but its about to be doing real good. I have a few new recruits and I'm looking for more business partners. I'm looking for people that are hungry and willing to hustle.
So this is what it is. If you've been on the HOME site lately you'll have noticed that I added the HEALTHZONE and BEAUTYZONE. Which takes you to my online stores. The HEALTHZONE is all about health and I endorse Nutrilite products. If you watched the last Olympics or NBA finals you saw Nutrilite commercials so you should have an idea of what the products are all about: optimal heath. The BEAUTYZONE is all about beauty so you'll find skin care, make up, acne care and much more from Artistry.
Instead of me going on and on about how this work. Contact me if you are interested in learning about the opportunity.
