Beaufort Health and Fitness: How To Get Rid Of That Muffin Top

Published by admin on November 10, 2013 | Leave a response

Stop Eating Processed Foods

Everyone loves a good shortcut, right? Depends on where that shortcut takes you. From now on I want you to think of processed foods as a shortcut to belly fat.

I wouldn’t be surprised if future studies prove that the over-processing, chemical additives and high fructose corn syrup that are pumped into processed foods specifically adds fat around your belly. If you want to shrink your belly then stay away from sugars, sodas, chemically altered fats, processed, packaged, fried and preserved foods.

Eat Fresh, Whole Foods

Once you’ve cut the processed foods out of your diet, fill in the void with lots of fresh foods like:

Green vegetables

Whole, organic, seasonal fruits

Lean, hormone-free, high quality meats

Colorful organic veggies

Nuts and seeds

I know this list of foods may seem boring at first, but if you stick with it long enough, you’ll grow to love the tantalizing flavors of real food. When your diet is filled with the foods listed above, your body will quickly shed pounds and lean out.

Do Challenging Exercise

The absolute best way to lose your muffin top forever is with a consistent, progressive exercise or Beaufort health and fitness program.

Consistent: You should be exercising 3-5 times each week.

Progressive: For truly awesome results, keep your body guessing with new exercises and increasing intensity.

Beaufort health and fitness programs are specifically crafted to get you into the best shape of your life, and I’m fanatically passionate about seeing you meet your goal.

Beaufort Health and Fitness: Ways to End Food Cravings

Published by admin on November 5, 2013 | Leave a response

Food cravings don’t need to have the upper hand on you anymore. Here’s how you can fight back using your most Beaufort health and fitness powerful asset: your brain. Remember that your mind is an amazing thing. Once your mind is made up about something it’s nearly impossible to change it.

Step One: Create a STRONG Negative Association with Unhealthy Food

You may not have realized it, but up until this point you’ve placed unhealthy, fattening foods on a pedestal in your mind. As long as the wrong foods are on that pedestal you’ll continue to give into your cravings and will continue to gain fat.

Take the wrong food off that pedestal by listing off everything negative about them…

These foods make you unhealthy.
These foods cause weight gain.
These foods drain your energy.
These foods kill your confidence.
These foods lessen your quality of life.
These foods damage your love life.

Every time that you feel tempted to eat an unhealthy food, focus on your list of negatives. Kick the junk off the pedestal and put something healthy in its place.

Step Two: Create a STRONG Positive Association with wholesome foods

Now that your mental food pedestal has been cleared, put truly wholesome food items on it. Juicy fresh fruit, crispy vegetables and savory lean meats are the place to start.

List off the things that you love about healthy food…

These foods make you healthy.
These foods promote fat loss.
These foods boost your energy.
These foods build your confidence.
These foods improve your quality of life.
These foods enhance your love life.

We encourage you to immerse yourself into the world of healthy, wholesome foods. Browse the aisles of your local natural foods store. Stroll through a farmer’s market. Pack healthy snacks to bring to work. Clear your kitchen of junk.

Use the Beaufort health and fitness technique above consistently and you will soon find that healthy, wholesome foods are your favorite. And craving the wrong foods will be a thing of your past.

Movement Is Essential To Building A Better Brain

Published by admin on October 22, 2013 | Leave a response

Hey EF Fam,

Have you ever thought about why movement was so easy when you were a kid? You could run jump and play all day with no aches and pains and move into extreme ranges of motions.

As we age, we forget how to squat correctly, pick things up properly, and move without exposing ourselves to injury. And aging and lack of movement is not the only reason/excuse; it goes deeper than that.

One culprit is muscular degeneration. This can be solved simply with strength training, which is easily accomplished (some might say not so easily 🙂 with the EarthFIT Training System, but many times the issue can lie deeper than what you might think.

When you were born, you explored and learned through movements. Your movements started on the ground and you built your motor and movement patterns using that foundation, literally from the ground up.

It was vital to your neurological development as well as your neuromuscular system and helped build things like:

Motor control
Vestibular System (Balance)
Visual System

… Just to name a few…

The proper development of these systems is necessary to process information correctly. Science has proven that movement is essential to building a better brain, not only during the developmental years, but even now growing new brain cells (neurogenesis) can be just as important. Especially significant are movements that incorporate all the senses, which include (but are not limited to):

Visual
Auditory
Proprioception
Respiratory
Vestibular (Balance)
Spatial

Well, we decided to create a program that brings it back to the basics. Back to the foundation of how you started to move – from as far back as when you were a baby, all the way through childhood, up until what you would need as an adult. It includes every sense that you need to activate the brain so that YOU:

Gain new brain cells
Get oxygen and glucose (brain fuel) to the brain faster

Can integrate the brain’s hemispheres by crossing the midline of your body
Reinforce basic motor learning, like crawling, rolling, jumping, etc.
Reduce stress levels
Accelerate motivation, learning, self-esteem, coordination, and
Decelerate neuro-degeneration and the aging process

The program is centered around body weight training, but incorporates:

Agility
Balance and stability
Coordination
Mobility

Spatial awareness
The Visual system
Play movements (things we did as a child that were fun and entertaining but also very good for our bodies)

And of course, other side effects may include:

weight loss,
increased strength,
lean muscle,
mobility,
stability
and coordination.

You can’t beat that! If you are interested in experiencing this type of program, let me know. I will send more details in the near future.

We can only accept 8 people but if there are enough responses we may open up more time slots. http://clients.mindbodyonline.com/ws.asp?studio=EarthFIT&stype=40&prodid=189

EF it,

Ian

P.S. We have a special going on for 1-on-1 training for the month of Nov. at specific time slots, only $37 per 1-on-1 training session ($10 less than joining our year 1-on-1 program). Anyone and everyone can take advantage whether you already train in group training, or you have never trained at EarthFIT before. If you are interested, get back to me ASAP, as we have very limited time slots and they will go quickly.

P.P.S We are in the process of creating another program called the “Bikini Body” headed by Fitness Model and Coach Chris Heskett. More details to come but this will focus on trimming the excess fat on the arms, thighs, booty and belly through training and include a specific nutrition program.
