At 103 years young, you'd never guess Teresa Moore is a gym rat. She hits the gym three to four times a week. She said her secret to a long life is simple: "Try to think of good things."

Happy Holidays and Happy New Years everyone!

• What are some things you are proud of accomplishing in 2022?

• What goals are you pursuing this upcoming year, and why?

A resolution is an incredible way to establish healthy lifestyle habits and success patterns
A resolution is a contract or decision made with purposeful intent with oneself to overcome an internal obstacle

Did you know that 43% of all people expect to fail before February and almost one out of four quit within the first week of setting their New Year’s resolution. Most people quit before the end of January, and only 9% see their resolutions through until succession.

Every dedicated and motivated individual I know does not fall under these statistics, and neither do YOU. Today and all days to come are opportunities to continue being unique, passionate, and anything but a statistic.

This holiday season, give yourself or another the gift of movement. A new resolution to commit to an easy at home workout program that strengthens the core and reduces back and hip pain. 30 days of consistency and dedication towards a new lifestyle

Tis the season in which many athletes, trainers and those looking to make proper muscular growth and development (everyone who exercises)begin to enter the bulking phase of training.

After spending the previous 4-5 months often in calorie deficit and low/mid weight-high repetition workouts for that incredible summer bod, the body and muscles needs a new routines to continue to develop. "Holiday pounds" is a real thing and depending on how you approach this will depict your results entirely.

Personally, I have a very high resting metabolism. This causes me to need to eat large amounts of carbs to fuel my bulking workouts and large amounts of protein to upkeep with muscle breakdown and rebuild. I usually do not eat after 10pm and not until 10am. Now, I still do not eat after 10pm but I MUST eat by 8am or my body will begin to seek energy from my fat storages(ketosis). Average person takes about 16 hours of no eating before their body reaches ketosis.

“We should all want to bulk,” Laura Girard NASM-CPT says. “Building muscle is necessary if your goals are strength or general fitness. It’s one of the best investments we can make in terms of our long-term health.”

Your health and capability to live an optimal life depends on proper nutrition, proper exercise and proper rest. These are the keys to live your best life PHYSICALLY.

Great topic and discussion!

It's so important as fitness professionals to make sure we understand our influence and ability to empower others. The ability to realize genuine desire for exercise over superficial. The ability to encourage, motivate and create strategic programs for professionals and those seeking an inner transformation.

Every relationship is at a different stage. The form of encouragement partner's respond best to is positive, constructive, and inclusive! The last thing anyone wants when it comes to making critical decisions is to be criticized while making those decisions. Elevate your partner! Inspire habitual progressive movement through your own daily actions.

Enjoy this short read and if you find yourself or your partner in a similar situations, find time to discuss this and design the perfect medium for you both! It's important to have a healthy active partner and it is also just as important that they feel welcomed, not pressured.

Getting your spouse or partner to exercise can be a struggle for many reasons. Learn how to involve your partner in your exercise without pushing.

Fascinating article expressing the the statistics of Americans (by gender) that feel pressured to look better physically due to a particular season.

I like to call this season treason.

A treason to oneself in which the idea is only to achieve a level of fit in order to reduce the level of self-perceived unattractiveness.
This in itself is not the only treason.

To me, the body is sacred. A complex, miraculous design inside every single person. We are all born with a singular instinctive duty and that is to survive and thrive! We survive though movement, thought and consumption of foods.

Quality movement
Quality thoughts
Quality consumption

A recipe for a quality life yet these qualities have slowly made there way down a depleted soil, genetically modified processed path. Today, our means of survival is more of a factor for some than others. Those living with more means and conveniences are more likely to take certain of these aspects for granted.

A more mindful way to approach the feeling of needing to look better physically before the summer or any other outing in particular is this: You are the sum of all your experiences and decisions, internally and externally.

To develop an external change , one must begin within. Internally, make a switch in which you decide that the opinions of others will come second to the opinions of yourself. Now write down 3 magnificently positive things about yourself(feel free to exaggerate since this will be the new mindset or opinion). These are now the only opinions that matter. Do this properly and your journey down the road of fitness and wellbeing will be amplified. All that will matter are your opinions and your results!

There's no need for taking things for granted any longer. We all today can make a conscious decision to begin making healthier wiser choices.

Whether it's eliminating soda from your life, hiring a certified personal trainer to guide you over the bridge to lasting health, or simply being aware of the way you think about others, the choice is always yours to begin making a difference.

All the small things matter in the long run.

Nearly half of consumers are actively trying to lose weight, but many aren’t focusing on both diet and exercise.
