In this insightful episode, Josh asks me some excellent questions where we cover topics, such as:

1 – How to move away from the “typical” daily eating patterns of most people who are out of shape and increasing their risk medical conditions, because of lack of ‘awareness’…

2 – How to simplify your approach to fitness training so it fits into a busy lifestyle and gives incredible benefits that most people don’t know about

3 – How to beat the afternoon crash and flip it into an energy boosting time of day, to increase health and productivity.

4 – What to do if you’re just starting out or starting all over again after a long layoff from taking care of yourself.

4 Easiest Co-Ed Moves for Tightly Toned Abs, Core & Midsection

I’m seeing so many complicated examples of workouts and exercises for the abs, core and midsection – that it’s a bit scary to think of how many people are getting hurt trying these hard-pushing, risky ab exercise routines that are being posted all over the internet…

So today, I’ve decided to enlighten those who are wise enough to know that beating up the body to force it to change usually ends up backfiring and creating even bigger setbacks:

Click play and try this mini abs and core exercise circuit as you watch it:

Here is the direct link to the video on my Youtube Channel==> 4 Easiest Co-Ed Moves for Tightly Toned Abs, Core & Midsection

In this short LIIT exercise video for the abs, core and midsection – I demonstrate a sequence of 4 exercises:

1 – Reverse Core-Curl
2 – Modified Single Leg-Scissor
3 – Modified Reverse Plank
4 – Modified Slow-Knee Raise

While this is a great abs and core workout for beginners, it is also an excellent one for intermediates and advanced trainees to add to their programs as well.

Some of the key elements you’ll notice are:

A – slow, controlled movements
B – steady breathing
C – no rest between sets

The combination of those 3 elements give us the Low-Impact Interval Training effects that we love so much 🙂

Give that little routine a try and let me know how you do, in the comment box below. And…

Think of at least one person who will benefit from today’s post and video training session and share it with them.

3 Powerful Back-Pain RELIEF Stretches to Improve Posture & Boost Energy: PART 1

Today I’m sharing 3 Powerful Back-Pain RELIEF Stretches to Improve Posture & Boost Energy: PART 1

If you don’t have an exercise ball yet, this is the one I recommend. (see size chart below video) I have one at home, several clients have it and we have 2 of them at the SCULPTAFIT Studio.

I actually have 4 of these exercise balls in different colors as I’ve somehow collected a bunch over the years. You can also take it along on travel by deflating it and bringing the mini hand pump it comes with.

Here’s the exercise ball sizing chart:

Best Workouts for Middle Age and Beyond Into Your 50’s, 60’s, 70’s

While the younger crowds and the “unsuspecting mature” crowds are continuously fed the notion that their workout have to me “high intensity”, “short and fast”, “harder and tougher” – the truth is none of that dangerous and risky stuff is NOT necessary.

Lots of the hardcore “fanatics” do not like when I write about this – but hey, this is not for them, it’s for us people who are just taking our own path that is most realistic and beneficial to us. Simple really…

Here is the direct link to the video on my YouTube Channel => #1 Best Workouts at Middle Age & Beyond Into Your 50’s, 60’s, 70’s

As of the day I’m writing this, July-15-19, my last complete health/medical exam was almost a year ago – which means my next one will be on schedule with Dr Osborn, for next month (August).

If you’ve been with me for a while, you’ll remember my last 5 years worth of vital stats and blood work ups have all been getting even better.

I’ll share the updated details (2019 results), in a future video and post here, on how these improvements are continuing, with the lifestyle habits I’ve been implementing (anyone can do these).

And as you know – my ‘chief aim’, and the one that I hope becomes ‘supernatural’ to you, is to always be employing lifestyle habits that directly, and positively, impact my annual health exam results.

By doing that – I directly, and positively, impact my LIFE – and I share this all to inspire YOU to do the same.

If I can do this – then so can YOU.

I think you’ll agree, we don’t hear this kind of wellness-focused ‘chief aim’ in the common conversations of mass market fitness..

Rather, we hear shallow messages about “fast weight loss”, “rock your best body in 4 weeks”, “be sexy again”, “turn heads everywhere”, “look like a fitness model”, “slim down in 7 days”…

It all makes me cringe, because it’s those short term, superficial promises that keep people in the perpetual cycle of “on and off again”… Never truly fully committing to a mindset and lifestyle of total wellness on the inside AND the outside.

Sure, some of my peers are opening their eyes to the bigger picture – but for the most part the mass markets are still appealing to people’s superficial, short lived, motivations.

And these shallow motivations, hardly ever stick. No secret, right?

BUT – when we shift our focus from just “looking amazing” to “feeling great, improving health & strength, exercising with care and eating for longevity..” then we start to really understand WHY we are doing all this – and how our mindset holds the key to everlasting habits, best results and an awesome quality of life.

In the video above, I share some thoughts on the the mindset needed in order to make all this “fitness stuff” easier, simpler, more enjoyable and hence, far more effective & sustainable in the long run.

One of the biggest factors in optimizing and preserving the physical body so that it is strong, balanced and able to carry us through life with high functionality is the TYPE of exercise we choose to do.

If we choose, the harder, heavier types of high-impact exercise – then our muscles, bones and joints will have excessive wear and tear on them. And this is IF, I say IF, one is able to even sustain the hardcore, high-intensity styles of workouts…

Opting for a gentler, slower and more controlled and realistic form of fitness training allows the body to be nurtured into wellness in a way that builds “physical integrity” both for the short term and the long.

Of course – this “physical integrity” is directly related to “mental/emotional integrity” – hence the “mind/body benefits” of a proper approach to lifelong fitness.

Enjoy the video above – please share it with at least one family member, friend, and/or co-worker who will appreciate it and benefit from it.

How to Reverse Aging and How to Prevent Aging Prematurely: PART 1

This is “How to Reverse Aging and How to Prevent Aging Prematurely” – PART 1

Anti-Aging is a MASSIVE Multi BILLION dollar market – and it is getting bigger every year.

The unfortunate thing is that, most of what is out there is “fake”. Meaning – it doesn’t work. From topical “youth serums” to extreme, invasive procedures – lots of damage is done in this murky realm…

Sure there are some good & honest pockets of true products, procedures and services – but finding the needles in the massive haystack can make the smartest people dizzy with crazy confusion…

Today I’m going to give some of the proven, time-tested, physiologically measurable elements of age reversal, anti-aging and prevention of pre-mature aging and disease.

Click play to get things going:

Here is the direct link to the video on my YouTube Channel => How to Reverse Aging and How to Prevent Aging Prematurely: PART 1

As you listen to what I share in this short video – there are a few points I want to highlight here:

1 – There is a difference between proper exercise and mass-market, trendy workout programs.

For the majority of us “regular people” with busy and full lives – we need SAFE and EFFICIENT. We don’t need risky and painful.

2 – Diet fads and gimmicky eating methods that are too restrictive and unbalanced will backfire on most people.

Nature has given us all the high nutrient foods and items we need to optimally sustain life. Faddish food plans that are unrealistic cannot be sustained, nor are they health for the vast majority of us.

3 – Your thoughts created by your mindset dictate your actions, choices and habits.

Don’t underestimate the power of your mind.

Your “thinking”, or lack of – has profound implications on how you carry yourself through life and the kind of life you have.

Pay attention to this one because it’s where all the magic starts.

Trust me, I’ve lived through this myself – so I speak from firsthand experience.

How to Lose Weight Without Counting Calories

So many people ask: “How Do I Lose Weight Without Counting Calories?”

Here is the direct link to the video on my YouTube Channel => How to Lose Weight Without Counting Calories

“Counting Calories” is one of the most widely known, and attempted, weight loss & dieting strategies.

But Does “Counting Calories to Lose Weight” Work?

For some it does, for others it doesn’t. So the answer is yes, and no- depending on who you ask.

And the reasons why or why not vary quite a bit – this is something I’ll talk about in a future video…

This truth is – losing weight can be achieved without counting calories. And this is a good thing because MANY people find the practice of counting calories to be tedious, challenging, frustrating, obsessive and dysfunctional.

That being said – there are people out there who’ve had great success losing weight by counting calories…

For now, I share a few thoughts based on personal experience and experience gained through coaching many clients over the past 3 decades.

In this video you’ll hear me talk about:

1 – Calorie/Food Displacement
2 – Calorie/Food Replacement
3 – Portion Mindfulness
4 – Nutrient Dense Foods
5 – And more….
