Health and Fitness Beaufort: Full Body Stretching
Hey EF Fam,
After years of studying anatomy, kinesiology, flexibility and mobility,
I created this full body stretching routine that targets all the areas of
the entire body that need the most love. If you are already an EFer,
you know this routine well 🙂
Health and Fitness Beaufort: FULLY BODY STRETCHING ROUTINE
You may have heard me mention this before… static stretching is the
most productive and beneficial after you have worked out and can be
deleterious before working out because it relaxes the muscle and that
is the last thing you want to do before a work out.
“Static stretching means a stretch is held in a challenging but comfortable position for a period of time, usually somewhere between 10 to 30 seconds. Static stretching is the most common form of stretching found in general fitness and is considered safe and effective for improving overall flexibility.”
This simple routine targets:
- The hip flexors
- Quads
- Hamstrings
- Adductors (inner thigh)
- Abductors (outer thigh)
- Gluteal muscles
- Hips and lower back
- The entire posterior chain (all the muscles along the back from the heel to the head)
- Latissimus dorsi
- Pecs
- Neck
They are all done in sequence to maximize results to each individual muscles.
For example, we stretch the hip flexors first to relax and deactivate them so that
you can get a better stretch with the hamstrings etc.
Here is the video for the full body stretching routine
Now you can follow the entire stretching routine anywhere anytime.
Enjoy!
Committed to your success,
Ian

Fascia and Stretching: The Fuzz Speech
****WARNING*****: If you are easily grossed out do not watch this video… but if you want to take a step in the right direction to understanding your potential problem with your back pain, you may want to check it out.
“The fuzz” can be lethal for your back. In fact, “the fuzz” tightness gets compounded around your back and hips when you sit for hours at a desk job or in a car. Even if you consider yourself fairly active.
After a few years of this stiffness it can create compression to your lower lumbar spine. This is one of the reasons why http://www.
The longer “the fuzz” stays you end up with an “inhibition of the potential for movement”: Translation, your back becomes tight and the more fear you have about pain and movement, the more tight the back becomes and the bigger the problem becomes.
“A more systematic exploration to restore the movement” is why we created the http://www.
The good news is, you do not need a manual manipulation because of the back program, you may want to use it as a compliment to it a program like Back Pain Relief4Life but you would not want to become dependent on someone else for your health. Be your own doctor when it come to your back and you will feel like you have control of your life. There is nothing worse than feeling helpless with back pain, I speak from experience. It wasn’t until I had the http://www.
The key here is, don’t let the fuzz build up in the back. If you have let it build up you may want to give, Back Pain Relief4Life a try.

Beaufort Personal Trainer: Watch Your Words
Beaufort Personal Trainer: Watch Your Words
“Hey! What’s up? It’s Ian Hart. And so I wanted to cover a topic real quick, something that I think is very important and as a coach listening to the client’s words and how they speak is extremely important because typically I can see within a few words where their mindset is at and then how it affects their life and the reason for why they are where they are in their life and in their evolution and path. And so, thoughts and words literally create your reality and so here’s an example.
Subconsciously you get programs by lights, sounds, and images and so sounds are words that carried with a vibration and every word sends a vibration through your body then it creates an action right? so for example most people are a program to say “I need to lose weight” so when you say I need to lose weight, what happens when you lose something… well naturally, unconsciously you want to find it right? you don’t lose things on purpose so unconsciously you’re saying I need to lose weight but deep down inside whatever is lost needs to be found so something like “I’m getting slimmer, leaner or telling yourself everyday I’m getting more healthy and fit” is a different program than “I’m trying to lose weight or I’m losing weight.” Is that makes sense? so if you tell yourself daily “I’m getting in better shape, I’m getting healthier” that’s a program and you slow words that changes how the brain look at things and thinks. So try that instead of saying “I need to lose weight or I need to lose anything” or speaking in that terms. Try to say day by day I’m getting X, Y, and Z. “I’m getting better at eating habits, I’m getting better at being healthy, I’m getting whatever it might be.” So that’s just a little tidbit.
Watch your words because they create your reality typically your thoughts, your emotions create your words and your words also carry with it a equivalent vibrations to those thoughts. So, watching your thoughts and your words will change the reality that you see and so there you go that’s just one tip that will help hopefully. I hope it helps you in being more conscious about your thoughts, your words and your actions.”

Degenerative Disc Disease
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE… If you have been told you have degenerative disc disease, you may want to watch this video and check http://
“Quick tip for those suffering or been told that they have Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD). This is a label and a term and it means nothing; there is no such thing as DDD. If you look it up online and it’ll tell you this is not a disease. Everybody has degenerating discs, it’s part of getting older and I heard Dr. Stuart McGill say when you go to a Doctor’s office (Dr. Stuart McGill is one of the leading spine specialist in the world) and he’d say, when you go to the Doctor’s office and they see wrinkles on your face they don’t tell you, “You have degenerative face disease,” right? Because no one would accept that or buy that. But as soon as somebody accepts that they have DDD they believe that they have a disease when the true cause of all degeneration is typically stress, diet, are you getting the minerals? Are you intaking inflammatory foods? etc., etc., like, are you gluten intolerant, but you eat gluten which has an affinity for collagen so it attacks the collagen that wears down the joints faster, etc.
So, main thing is there is no such thing as Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD). Everybody above the age of 50 when they look at a cadaver their disc are degenerated. Now, some are degenerated a little faster, because everybody’s different and some degenerates slower. Now, if you’re someone that the disc degenerates faster, then I would highly recommend:
- Looking at your diet
- Looking at your stress level
- Looking at your exercise/ activity level
How often are you moving? How often are you sitting? If you’re sitting, that is one of the most dangerous things for your back, like if you are sitting all day and you’re in a certain position where you are not activating your abs, you’re putting stress on your lower back, then this can cause your disc to degenerate because it is not getting the oxygen, the blood flow and the nutrients that it needs. And the nutrients is transferred through synovial fluid which is released through compression on the back. So compression is needed to keep your back healthy which means that you need to be lifting or doing things that cause compression on the spine and this is how we get nutrients and blood flow but if you’re sitting all day what happens is you create a lack of blood flow and energy to the certain area. Imagine you sit 8 hours a day, that’s 1/3 of your day, you are sleeping the other 8 hours typically right? So in between that time the time that you’re sitting and sleeping there is not much going on, so activity level is very important. So when you’re in between those two 8 hours of sitting and sleeping, you should be doing some activity right? that’s why we’ve created Back Pain Relief4Life, because it helps people get blood flow, nutrients and oxygen to their back so that they can come back, de-stress the lack of activity, the lack of blood flow, and nutrients to the back. So there’s no such thing as Degenerative Disc Disease; really it comes down to you being your own best doctor with nutrients, stress level, activity level and that’s gonna be the main three things that affect your back. So you make sure you focus on those areas and you should see 90% of all back issues and DDD go away if you’re able to incorporate healthy lifestyle and nutrition, reducing stress and  activity level.”

Quit Shoulding Yourself

Happy New Year (Formula For Success)
Hey EF Fam,
There is a simple formula for success.
Do you want to know what it is?
I thought it was only right to share this on Jan. 1st,
when people tend to make new goals or try to start over fresh.
The formula for success in anything is
COMMITMENT + CONSISTENCY = SUCCESS
People who are committed to a result or outcome will:
- not stop when obstacle come up.
- not make excuses.
- Forego sleep and creature comforts
- put there money where their mouth is (Money is only an exchange of energy, the more energy you put into something the more your commitment level is. When I join coaching programs myself, I want to pay a lot of money because I take it more serious and get better and faster results out of it, plus the quality of the coaching is higher)
- be more focused on the result or outcome
This is why we always ask anyone interested in our training program:
“On a scale of 1-10, how committed are your to achieving your goals?”
We ask this because as coaches we are not magicians.
We need commitment first and foremost to help anyone in any endeavor.
We know if we have a high level of commitment and the
person trains consistently we can get them AWESOME results fast!
John H. (Lost 30 lbs in a month)
So if you are making goals in 2016, ask yourself how committed you
are to the outcome and do you have a plan to make sure that you are
consistent with your actions?
Committed to your success,
Ian
P.S. We got super busy before the New Year and only have a few membership spaces open, so if your serious about make a transformation in 2016 reply to this email.
P.P.S. Here are a few people who were committed below, pretty awesome, right?
