Here Are 4 Quick Fit Tips For The Holiday Season:
Hi There, I hope you had a phenomenal Thanksgiving with your loved ones. Guilt is a powerful emotion, one that I am sure you are probably feeling right about now from all those holiday treats this past week. Here’s the deal everyone, what’s done is done... there’s no point in beating yourself up about it. Rather, let’s focus on what we can control... the present and the future! Here Are 4 Quick Fit Tips For The Holiday Season: The holidays can be very busy . Nevertheless, do not let yourself get caught in the trap of not working out to make more time for holiday events. It would be a big mistake to risk losing the lean muscle mass and strength that you have worked so hard to build and maintain. Why you ask? Losses in lean muscle mass will lower your resting metabolic rate, which accounts for the vast majority (about 60-75%) of your total daily calorie burning. This means that everyday you will be burning less and less calories which will put you at a much greater risk of putting on ugly, unwanted body fat during the holidays. Plus, losing strength will mean that the next time you start to work out your performance will be sub par and you’ll get smacked in the face with that ugly word that no one ever wants to encounter when it comes to their training: regression! Furthermore, there are many clever ways to maintain or increase the number of calories you burn per day, both from exercise and from your normal daily activities, to stay fat-free this holiday season. Use the strategies below to maintain and/or increase your current amount of lean muscle mass and maximize your daily calorie burn to best protect yourself against the deadly holiday bloat! 1.) Perform at least one intense strength training session per week Studies show that only a single strength training workout per week during times when you cannot train as frequently as you normally do is an effective way to maintain your current levels of strength and lean muscle mass. So, to best maintain your strength and lean muscle mass, shoot for at least one good strength training workout per week to stay buff during the holidays and to prevent unwanted regressions in fitness. To best prevent weight gain, aim for three total body strength workouts per week. To maximize fat burning, perform three total body strength workouts per week and also perform three cardio interval workouts per week on non strength-training days. 2.) Hit Your Totals Your body is a moron. In other words, it cannot differentiate between 100 push-ups performed in a row versus 100 total push-ups performed in a day. When you honestly cannot find a five to 20-minute time slot to complete an effective total body workout, look for hidden chunks of time during the day to get in a certain number of daily repetitions for a certain number of exercises that work your entire body. Got a free moment from now until you need to take the turkey out of the oven? Then, bang out 10 push-ups, 10 rows, and 20 squats. Using this method throughout the day will lead to big numbers by the end of the day that will burn the same amount of calories in addition to creating similar muscle building effects as if you did all of the exercises at once during a single workout. It is important to note that this “Hit Your Totals” routine is merely a back-up option to the ideal 20-minute interval training workouts which are scientifically proven to burn nine times more fat than ordinary exercise (see my article How to Build 5-Minute Total Body Fat Burning Workouts for the Holidays for more info). Short rest periods between exercises create the optimal hormonal environment for rapid fat loss and lean muscle gain, where as the long rest periods (full recovery) between movements do not. However, it comes down to effective (“Hit Your Totals”) versus optimal (50-10 Total Body Circuit Interval Training Workouts), so be sure to at least be effective this holiday season! Make sure to pick multi-joint, compound movements that hit as much of your body’s major muscle groups in the shortest amount of time possible (e.g. squats, deadlifts, lunges, push-ups, rows, etc.). Use the plan below as guide to build your own “Hit Your Totals” workout. Adjust the repetition ranges accordingly based on your current strength levels. The only thing you need is your body weight and adjustable dumbbells and/or resistance bands. Perform this plan up to three times per week, resting a day between workouts. Make sure to alternate between Plan A and Plan B for more variety. You can either hit your total by doing one exercise first (e.g. perform push-ups rest-pausing as needed until you get 100 total), or by simply employ circuit style training (e.g. 20 squats, 10 push-ups, 10 rows, repeat 10x throughout the day to hit your totals). The Hit Your Total Workout For The Holidays Plan A Body weight Squats or Hip Extensions: 100-200 total Push-ups: 50-100 total DB/Band Rows: 50-100 total Plan B Body weight Lunges or Single-Leg Hip Extensions: 50-100/total per leg Off Chair/Couch Dips: 50-100 total DB/Band Curls: 50-100 total (feel free to swap pull-ups or pull-downs here if you have access to the equipment) 3.) Rage Against The Machines Machines have made us an incredibly out of shape and overweight society. This holiday season make it a point to not use them! Now I don’t mean to say that you cannot drive to the mall during the holidays. However, when you get to the mall, try to park further away so you can do more walking to get inside. Avoid using elevators and escalators and opt for the stairs; all those steps truly do add up. Instead of having your naughty kids carry the bags, burn more calories by carrying the bags yourself (sorry, that was the former naughty kid in me raging, ha ha). Stay on your feet as much as possible and resist the temptation to let a robot or machine do the work for you. 4.) Engage in more outdoor holiday activities I have been in some pretty incredible snowball fights in my day. Though I was always having a blast while pelting my friends behind cleverly built igloos, I was never aware of how exhausting a good snowball fight can truly be until I came indoors afterwards. My snowsuit was soaked with sweat and I had spent the last 30 minutes or so in total fight or flight mode. Talk about an awesome way to burn calories without even thinking about it! Get outdoors this holidays season and throw around the pigskin or have your very own “Ice Bowl.” Once again, all these calories here and there truly do add up and could make a difference between you fitting in your pants or ripping your pants by the time the clock strikes midnight this New Year! These simple strategies are ones that I have used both personally and with my beloved clients to stay the course during this busy and stressful time of year. Look everyone, please trust me and follow this advice because I don’t want you to waste a New Year’s resolution on losing fat in January that you could have prevented from putting on in the first place this December ;) When Results Are What You Want Have a truly great day , everything is possible!

HOLIDAY FITNESS TIP
===============================
HOLIDAY FITNESS TIP
===============================
Even if you fall completely off the wagon, don't beat yourself up. All you
have to do is get right back on your program without missing another beat.
Too many people mess up once and then think their entire diet is ruined.
They feel as if everything they've done prior to that day was wasted and
there's no sense going on.
Or even worse, they rationalize to themselves, "Well, I already cheated,
so it doesn't matter now, I might as well keep pigging out."
That's nonsense. If you threw in the towel every time you didn't score
100% on your diet, most people would never get through more than a
few days on any structured program.
Just because you mess up once doesn't mean you should quit! You're
only human. Don't let one small slip keep you derailed.
When you've strayed from the plan, enjoy it, don't let guilt and
discouragement get you down. Firmly plant your wheels back on the
tracks and start rolling again. Deal?
Here's my suggested plan for any upcoming holiday social gatherings:
a.) be a little more active and have a little bit smaller portions the day
prior and all the way up to your special meal.
b.) make simple, healthier changes to the foods you love, so that you can
enjoy the meal, but in modified, healthier versions.
c.) eat until comfortably full and satisfied, not stuffed.
d.) get right back on track the very next morning.
If you plan these 4 steps a head of time and have the right mindset going
into it, you can really enjoy your special meal without sabotaging your
progress.
===============================
MOTIVATION
===============================
Do it anyway
You can always find a good excuse not to take action. But what would you
rather have -- good excuses or the real, satisfying fruits of achievement?
There is always some person or some circumstance you can blame when you
fail to live up to your possibilities. But what good will that do you?
The next time you find yourself looking for a good excuse, stop and ask
yourself why. Keeping up appearances is easy. All it gets you, though, is a
good superficial appearance. Wouldn't you rather go for real substance?
There are many very good, very understandable reasons why you cannot be the
best you can be. Pay them no heed. Make the commitment to succeed in spite
of the excuses, rather than to fail because of them. It's your choice.
There are plenty of things to stop you. Go ahead and do it anyway. Instead
of amassing a large collection of excuses, build yourself a life that's rich
in meaning and accomplishment.

Don't fall for the Acai Berry Myth
Don't fall for the Acai Berry Myth
You can't really miss it on the Internet these days. Seems like everywhere you look there's another company promoting the nutritious Acai Berry as a weight loss miracle.
And that's why I thought it was critical to write you today. I want to make sure you know my opinion on the subject.
First, you know better than to believe you're going to pop some pills - ANY pills - and have the pounds and inches melt off like magic. If you've been listening to me for any length of time you know true fat loss comes from a variety of factors, including exercise and proper nutrition.
Second, any fitness expert worth their fees will tell you that any diet that promotes you eat any one food all day long and then eat a sensible dinner, well, don't bother. Yes, you will lose some weight short-term, but as soon as you go back to your old eating habits - and you know you will - you know exactly what happens.
Third, the Acai Berry contains VERY powerful antioxidants and it is getting a lot of good press for that very reason. Yes, antioxidants as in the extraordinary nutrients that help fight the free radicals associated with aging, cancer risk and other degenerative diseases.
And while on the subject, I wanted to fill you in on something that has recently come to light. Did you know that coffee berries (the berry that covers the coffee bean) is one of the most powerful antioxidants on the planet? It's something researchers have discovered in recent years.
What's really cool is my friends at Prograde Nutrition have just created an amazing Whole Foods based Anti-Aging formula called Prograde Longevity that includes both Acai Berry and Coffee Berry. Oh, and it also utilizes Green Tea, Pomegranate, Wolf Berry and Biovin Grape (Red Wine extract.)
Just to give you an idea of how powerful this formula is, well, you'd have to eat an entire POUND of raspberries to get the same ORAC value. And in case you're not familiar with the term, ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity.
The best part is their having a Thanksgiving Week sale to celebrate the launch of Prograde Longevity. From now until Friday you can get 11% off Longevity or any of their other exclusive products they offer.
You can check out Prograde Longevity for yourself here: http://albertabootcamp.getprograde.com/
Just be sure to enter this coupon code in when you checkout: (yes, it's all lower case)
thanks
Oh, and just so you know, you can't find Prograde products in stores anywhere. They're so exclusive they only let fitness experts work with their company to help them get the word out.
Yours in health,
Have a truly great day , everything is possible!

What’s Calgary Doing To Fight Childhood Obesity?
News Release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE November 20, 2008 Media Contact: Tara Deda
(403) 980-5847 tara@new-wavepr.com
What’s Calgary Doing To Fight Childhood Obesity
Statistics Show Obesity Numbers are “Growing”
CALGARY, AB (November 12, 2008) – The Public Health Agency of Canada recommend teens increase physical activity by 30 to 90 minutes per day. Too much time is spent in front of the television instead of participating in physical activity. A major concern regarding childhood obesity is that obese children tend to become obese adults, facing an increased risk of diabetes, heart disease and many other chronic diseases (Canadian Medical Association Journal)
Research studies show that over half of Canadian children and youth, age 5 –17, are not active enough for optimal growth and development (Canadian Fitness and Lifestyle Research Institute, 2000 Physical Activity Monitor). From 1981 to 1996, the prevalence of overweight children and youth doubled, and obesity tripled for both boys and girls (Canadian Medical Association Journal, 2000). It is estimated that in 2001 the economic cost associated with obesity was 4.3 billion (1.6 billion in direct costs and $2.7 billion in indirect costs), which represented 2.2% of the total health-care costs in Canada for that year (Canadian Journal of Applied Physiology, 2004).
Blaine Meller has learnt how to reverse health issues from personal experience. “I was diagnosed with Type-2 Diabetes and high blood pressure” says Meller, “physical activity and the fight for my own health has inspired me to reach out to teens and stop disease at the start by creating The Teen Power Hour”.
Blaine Meller and his wife Marsha Burnett are using their struggle with obesity to help teens in Calgary’s N.E. “It is important to educate our youth about the importance of physical activity” Says Marsha Burnett, “the more our children are exposed to healthy living the less chance they have of developing life threatening disease”.

We Have 1,440 Minutes Each Day So Why Not Schedule 45 Of Them For Fitness?
Fitness Boot Camps Canada encourages Fitness in Marda Loop
CALGARY, AB (Nov 7, 2008) – You can do a lot in 1440 minutes so why not spend 45 of them doing something good for your health? Most adults need at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity at least five days per week. The key is to find the right exercise for you. If it is fun, you are more likely to stay motivated. (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)
“I want to provide my clients with a better quality of life” says Todd Leyte, Fitness Boot Camps Canada’s Marda Loop trainer, “It’s important to make fitness fun and impactful especially with the time constraints that individuals with busy lifestyles face.”
Only 52% of Albertan’s are physically active while 42% of working Canadians report they have a lack of time due to work. (Statistics Canada Survey, 2005) Each Fitness Boot Camps Canada program involves 45 minutes of high impact exercise with 15 minutes of stretching and cool down to ensure that injuries don’t occur.
“Bringing a fitness program to the busy individual is key.” says Leyte, “that is why I choose Marda Loop as the destination to run my boot camp; it’s bustling with businesses and family life.”
About Todd Leyte:
Todd graduated from the University of New Brunswick with a degree in Kinesiology. Exercising since the age of 14, Todd is now a certified personal trainer by Can Fit Pro and is passionate about teaching and instructing individuals, and seeing his clients achieve their fitness goals.
