As a fitness professional there is nothing worse than seeing an athlete, new fitness adventurer, or someone just looking to be fit kill their progress with horrible form! Body mechanics should be the First priority for fitness! Without proper form anyone and everyone is gearing themselves up for failure and injury. 

First, before getting into a fitness regiment, figure out your own starting point.    

Not everyone starts at the same point, no matter what ANY trainer says

Second, balance your weaknesses. 

Find where you need to work most. There is no point to over exercise overactive muscles or muscle groups.

Utilize "self-mysofacial release" to inhibit and lengthen over active muscles (you'll thank me later for including this step) 

Work on under-active muscles to create balance, perfect form, and prevent injury

 Third and final step (for now) is reap the benefits! 

With building up your temple you will be set for improvements without setbacks

Be patient, change comes with time

Be aware, know your body and it's current needs

Be resilient, set backs may happen just worry about getting back on track and take whatever healthy and productive rout you need to get there.

You Only Have To Start To Be A Competitor!

Nutrient timing is a popular nutritional strategy that involves the consumption of combinations of nutrients--primarily protein and carbohydrate--in and around an exercise session. Some have claimed that this approach can produce dramatic improvements in body composition. It has even been postulated that the timing of nutritional consumption may be more important than the absolute daily intake of nutrients. The post-exercise period is widely considered the most critical part of nutrient timing. Theoretically, consuming the proper ratio of nutrients during this time not only initiates the rebuilding of damaged muscle tissue and restoration of energy reserves, but it does so in a supercompensated fashion that enhances both body composition and exercise performance. Several researchers have made reference to an anabolic “window of opportunity” whereby a limited time exists after training to optimize training-related muscular adaptations. However, the importance - and even the existence - of a post-exercise ‘window’ can vary according to a number of factors. Not only is nutrient timing research open to question in terms of applicability, but recent evidence has directly challenged the classical view of the relevance of post-exercise nutritional intake with respect to anabolism. Therefore, the purpose of this paper will be twofold: 1) to review the existing literature on the effects of nutrient timing with respect to post-exercise muscular adaptations, and; 2) to draw relevant conclusions that allow practical, evidence-based nutritional recommendations to be made for maximizing the anabolic response to exercise.

The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack in will.

My Life for YOUR Fitness

Just to tell you a little about myself, I am a self driven and supportive being that enjoys helping others reach their ultimate goals! If you have a smaller goal in taking that first step to a healthy and fit lifestyle or if you want to go as far as maintaining and exceeding your fitness/lifestyle goals and aspirations it is possible. I believe that everyone needs positive support to know that they are not alone in making their overall heath dreams come true. I greatly enjoy the opportunities that come with providing guidance and support to others. I have made my life's goal to learn and teach myself about the many aspects of the health field. Yes, I say health field because there are countless aspects of overall health that do not just focus on fitness alone. Health in body, spirit, and mind are all important when referencing ones health. Without a rested mind there cannot be peace and happiness within ones self to reach their full potential. Even if that rested mind is provided by a simple smile!
