Blog postOne of the macronutrients that seems to confuse people is carbohydrates.
The information out there can be difficult to decipher and apply to yourself so it can be hard to understand that most times the information is not right or wrong, its relative.
Almost everything I share has the basis that everything is relative to your needs. You apply what works for you and others apply other things that work for them but none of you are wrong and not everything works for -

Blog postTheres a silent little piece of workout equipment that has snuck into homes for many years. To this day many are still in homes and its actually a tool that is still sold but never really talked much about anymore.
Remember the Rebounder? The mini tramploline used for low impact cardio work enhancing strength, agility, balance and coordination in a fun way.On occasion I need to give a client a program for their rebounder and today I am going to share one with you, for those who -
Blog postI use alkaline based diets a lot. There are so many uses for this that help with general fitness results but also in pre or post competition, any kind, recreational or pro.I like to use this to reset the system, a type of cleanse that helps the body release toxins and prepare you for a base that yields better response to nutrition and exercise.
Some of the things that trigger me to think of applying this type of diet for a week or more:someone on medications short or long termsomeone -
Blog postTo spark up some size gains try this workout for a week or 2. Changing up your routine in itself will ignite results but applying the Fundamental Four exercises in a 10 set of 10 rep formula, you will get some amazing gains.
You want to do 2 days on and 2 days off then repeat. Lift what you can so that each set is challenging but completed. This may mean lowering it slightly as you get into the higher sets or you will take bigger rests between sets as you get to th -

Blog postThere are still those who think that eating clean means no flavour, eating foods you dislike and having to deal with complicated recipes and cooking tools. WRONG
Not only is that incorrect but you can eat with flavour, clean and lean, improve your health habits, improve your nutrient intake, enjoy food and making your meals by simply applying your favourite flavour profiles.
You know what flavours you tend to go for and by keeping some staple herbs, spices and se -
Blog postFor those who love the BAR! This workout is all old skool and all Oly Bar.
Each barbell exercise is outlined and described with photos.Some of you may want to use a body bar which comes in lighter sizes than the traditional 45lb Olympic bar and have padding surrounding the bar.
You can also find lighter oly bars (10/25/35lb) in some gyms or can use the EZ curl bar (18.5lb avg) for these exercises.Some of you may even still have your old York or Weider set which has a 10l -

Blog postWhen I first started to explore the world of vegetarianism and dieting in my tweens, I discovered a recipe from the Vegetarian
Scarsdale diet Squash with Apple.
I was hooked. I make it to this day and its such a simple and delicious meal.
Power packed, the orange colored acorn squash is filled with phytonutrients while falling into a non grain carb. All squash, pumpkin and yams are often used in bodybuilding diets for a clean carb.
The prep and cooking of it -
Blog postChest TrainingFor men it is the need for density, thickness and size of the chest muscle, for women it is tightening,toning and firming of the chest area. One quick note is that these exercises may not be suited to everyone,those with shoulder, rotator cuff or similar injuries may worsen them so please consult your physician ifyou fall in this category. Considering you are already reasonably fit and are familiar with training, I am a firm believer that in orderto attain maximum gains in ch

Blog postSpider Pushups using Bosu
This new Challenge is all the buzz and caught my eye when a friend was posting his pushup challenge. Then I was double nominated! Anyone can do it even with just air pushups, its open to all, just look at some of the videos submitted with those who have no arms and legs, those who are paralyzed or bed ridden. There is no excuse nor cost other than a bit of creativity, maybe some sweat and muscle if you are able. Here is the website with inf -
Blog post15 Min Cardio HitsIt can be shocking how many days can go by without a workout when you get busy and involved in things. You think "Ill take today off, I have no choice so I will resume tomorrow". Then things drag so your next day goes by and your day or 2 off turns into a week before you even realize it.
I like to keep a selection of cardio hits and workout blocks for clients so that when life hits they can still get a workout in.

Blog postSpice of LifeDo you ever stop to think about the herbs and spices you use to cook? The more we lean toward natural holistic solutions toward health and maintaining wellness, the deeper we get into the benefits of the flavorings we use. I personally think its super cool how the smell, the shape, texture, beauty of these plants and seeds enhance that they are secret treasures.
Being in the world of physique competitions means flavoring that aids in results and helps with the vers -
Blog postBasic Stretch Sheet PDFHere is a simple handout you can use to get some stretches in daily. Fit them in when you can through the day or do them in a session after a workout. If any of the specific areas shown in the stretches are a problem issue then focus on at least doing that stretch a few times in your day.
It is much easier to stretch when you are warm so after moving around or walking rather than getting up from sitting and getting into the stretches. If you -

Blog postIf you have been following my contest blog here, you saw all my layout plans for comp, which were very sound and relative...........and never executed. I had to focus on just eating period so following any diet plan was not happening. I jogged twice through May and June, walked though my routine and marked it a few times but never did it in studio full out, first time was on stage. I never lifted a weight during those 2 months, I was losing weight again too fast, hit 110 and ha
