Benefits of whole grain

Good Morning Everyone,

I wanted to briefly show some health reasons why whole grain is a better alternative in your diet. Below is a snippet from an article I read a few days ago.


"Studies show that eating whole grains instead of refined grains lowers the risk of many chronic diseases. While benefits are most pronounced for those consuming at least 3 servings daily, some studies show reduced risks from as little as one serving daily. The message: every whole grain in your diet helps!
THE MAIN BENEFITS OF WHOLE GRAINS


The benefits of whole grains most documented by repeated studies include:

• stroke risk reduced 30-36% 
• type 2 diabetes risk reduced 21-30% 
• heart disease risk reduced 25-28% 
• better weight maintenance 

Other benefits indicated by recent studies include:

• reduced risk of asthma 
• healthier carotid arteries 
• reduction of inflammatory disease risk 
• lower risk of colorectal cancer 
• healthier blood pressure levels 
• less gum disease and tooth loss" 

To continue reading why whole grain is important in your diet as a substitute to all other types of refined grains... Check out the link below!

I have some updates on the company

Good morning everyone,

So some people at the gym have been asking me on some updates to how the launch of my company is coming along. I must say it is going a little slower then I had thought but thats just because of the amount of free time I have been dedicating to my school. Now that that is over and I am finished I promise progress as far as the business is concerned. I am in the process of purchasing a name, and registering it as an LLC so that we can conduct business online hopefully within the next 6 months! I was wondering if everyone would help me out by either replying onto the blog itself, or by emailing me things you would like to see implemented in the website.

As of right now we have a decent setup for the page itself and we have some good ideas, but we would love to know what the followers, users and prospective clients would like to see!


Thanks again

My Personal Supplements

Hey everyone,

Ive had people ask me what Supplements I take? Where do I get them from?

So to answer the question I for 80% of the time use Myofusion protein powder but when I trying to lean out I with Un fortunately the protein is on back order due to high demands for it. This is not to worry chocolate is still available and it will return to regular shipping soon. Also Protein bars can be found on there too.

For a fat burner I think multivitamins should do the trick, most people dont get the full line of nutrition they need in their bodies each day so a multivitamin helps immensely. Below is my multivitamin its called Double X. Rated in the top multivitamins on the market. I personally love it and it helps your body's immune system, helps with allergies, also helps prevent over training from malnutrition.

For those on a more stringent budget this is a womens pack 4 multivitamins specifically for women. One packet per day. 30 days worth

For those of you looking to completely reconfigure your diet and routine this will help. the double X helps fight unnecessary cravings. It helps get your body in proper working order early in the morning before you even leave the house to take on the day. You will feel more energy as I felt when I first started on them. Give it a shot if your looking around for new supplements. Also for those of you who are interested in discounts I may be able to get you them though the website if you email me.

Have a good day everyone

Use the stairs not the elevator

Hey everyone,


So I want to post a simple article today on why you should use the stairs and not the elevator. This picture is taken from the website slideshare but i will post the exact source at the bottom. I wanted to stress to everyone as the summer months approach the importance of carbs, eating the proper amounts of all your nutrients and not starving yourself. Their are simple ways to burn extra calories each day. Do enough of them each day and it will add up.


Think of calorie burning as a long term process. If you burn 50 extra calories a day for example dont think about it for this weeks weight loss. Think about it for the year. 365 days in a year thats 18,250 extra calories this year that you will burn. Thats about 5 1/2 pounds that you will loose this year. Most people dont understand how large 5 pounds of pure fat is. IT IS QUITE LARGE! Their is a difference between weight loss and fat loss. Fat loss is just as significant as weight loss but probably twice as satisfying to the eyes. Each pound of muscle you gain adds to your metabolism and the more fat you loose the same concept persists. So the more you gain in muscle and the more you loose in fat quantities the happier you will be. One it will mask the fat on your body even more, and two it will make the rest of the weight loss that much easier because your metabolism is higher.

Back to the point here are some reasons to use the stairs rather then the elevator. Also the stairs can add up amount calories you burn a lot faster then you think. Heres the article!

Thanks

Vitamins and working out

Ok so this question was brought to my attention by a client of mine in the gym.

Why do I need to take a multi vitamin when im working out? Cant I just eat healthy food?

"In the grand scheme of things, your body is basically one giant mass of chemical reactions. Each of these individual reactions is fueled by small proteins called enzymes, which work by lowering the amount of energy that is needed for a specific reaction to occur. Enzymes require the use of a "co-enzyme" which alters its shape and allows it to perform its job properly. Co-enzymes are also referred to as vitamins.


So when it all comes down to it, vitamins are needed to fuel the thousands of chemical reactions going on within your body at all times. Not only does this play an important role in overall metabolism and body health, but it also plays a vital part in the muscle-building process" (source article http://www.squidoo.com/Multivitamins-A-Necessary-Supplement-Or-Waste)

A  multivitamin is essental when you workout if you dont feed your body the added multivitamin or minerals help your body to add muscle and shed fat. So each vitamin you cant eat though food is wasted without the aide of a supplement.
