What is functional resistance training Today the buzz word in the gym is functional training. It has many meanings to many practitioners in the health and fitness industry. Read more about it! Soy – Panacea or Poison This article on soy will examine the following: · History of the humble soy bean · It’s role in the Asian diet · It’s role in the western diet- where is it lurking · Critical questions regarding its safety · The guinea pigs Read more! Training barefoot - is freeing your feet the healthier way If you have been living in a cave or just stepped out of the jungle barefoot then you can skip this article. However for most of us with feet that have been shaped and moulded from the shoe then welcome to an emerging trend in training called the 'Barefoot Revolution'. Companies like Nike have jumped on board releasing their Nike Free range and employing the likes of Paula Radcliff and Wayne Rooney to promote them. But is it just another gimmick? So is going barefoot a healthier option? Seven things people should not be doing in the gym The gym is a health hazard for a lot of people. Daily, I see people giving their all on cardio equipment in an effort to lose a few kilos, or heaving weights back and forth in an effort to ‘get big’. These are the same people who, a year later have nothing to show for their three-one-hour-per-week-sessions except for perhaps a sore back, an injured knee and a good deal of disillusionment. Here’s a list of seven things people should not be doing in the gym and some exercise alternatives. Dream Achievement process - a unique way to achieve your goals Your ability to set goals is the master skill of success. Goals unlock your positive mind and release ideas and energy for goal attainment. Without goals, you simply drift and flow on the currents of life. With goals, you fly like an arrow, straight and true to your target. (Brian Tracey) Artificial Sweeteners - learn the truth about this dangerous man-made additive If you knowingly consume Artificial sweeteners, then I highly recommend you read this, however unfortunately many unknowingly consume it, as it’s a very well hidden product, in over 5000 thousand foods, including chewing gum, soft drinks, jelly and children’s medicines. Fat Facts - saturated fats versus unsaturated fats: have we got it all wrong Fats and oils are simply essential to optimal health. They are important building blocks for the cells of your body, a source of energy and they provide a variety of hormones. In summary when viewing all the research, the current recommendations for fat consumption reads like a comedy of errors or, perhaps considering that we have not made a dent in the statistics for preventable diseases, a horror movie. Read more! A guide to training phases - how to change your workout to see real physical changes Do you make the mistake of training the same way week in week out? Variation is not only the spice of life but when it comes to health and fitness it is paramount. In the following article I will outline the best strategies! Stretching and Strengthening - find out how to balance your body I recently read in the GQ Magazine an article on stretching written by a London celebrity trainer. He basically wrote that stretching is a waste of time and in some cases dangerous. I consider the statement “stretching is unnecessary and sometimes unhealthy” to be another classic generalised BS one. More importantly, there is essential specific stretching. Free Radicals - the secret to anti aging and disease prevention In 1956, Denham Harmon MD., PHD., proposed his free radical theory of aging. According to this theory, the aging process involves molecular and cellular injury caused by free radicals. This theory remains strong today with free radicals and antioxidants still the current buzz word in the field of anti aging and to a lesser note disease prevention. Strong beginnings - success through synergy I am continually in contact with people who self-sabotage themselves. They just don't believe deep down it's possible to change. The 'hope' that brings them to the point of "maybe I could achieve this goal?" is very fragile. Brian Tracy, one of the most highly regarded motivators, says in his book 'Maximum Achievement' that he has found the common link between high achievers. All have taken the time to sit down and create a clear blueprint for themselves and their future.

Rebounding involves using a min-trampoline to jog, twist or step walk on the spot. The benefits of rebounding have been well documented by many professionals in rehabilitation and conditioning. Naturopathy Naturopathy, also known as natural medicine, or natural therapeutics, is the western version of other holistic, nature-based medical systems that harness the body's own natural healing process (like Chinese medicine). Naturopaths believe the healing power of the body is the most powerful tool and should be supported - not overridden. The body can heal cuts, mend broken bones, rid itself of infections and achieve feats when given a chance that makes no competition against any man-made drug. Read more about it! Oh no - not another diet! For us in the Northern Hemisphere summer has arrived and shedding the layers of clothes has begun. But for many it's a case of extra winter baggage still hanging on, which sees a lot of people taking drastic measures like semi-starving themselves to fit into their bathing suits and summer outfits. So today I will examine firstly what happens to your body if you severely reduce calories and secondly how to safely and effectively achieve permanent fat-loss. Walking - Why you should be getting back to basiscs Sometimes we forget the basics. For many people returning to exercise after a long hiatus can be a painful experience. Shocking the body through intense running, weight training and sport can result in a short term comeback. So what's the best way to get started? I believe it's through daily walking. Find some of the physical, mental, financial, environmental, and other benefits to regular walking! 22 ways to a good night's sleep How many of you consider the importance of sleep in relation to fat-loss, injury prevention and recovery, lack of focus, and overall health and vitality? According to a study published in the Lancet Medical Journal chronic sleep deprivation may speed the onset or increase the severity of age-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, and memory loss. Read more about it! A healthy approach to addressing high cholesterol fears "If statins work, in preventing heart disease they do so by reducing inflammation, not because they lower cholesterol." Here is an alternative approach to using statins according to the Price-Pottenger foundation. Hybrid Training Today I want to share with you an exciting alternative called hybrid training to spice up your workouts. These are more advance techniques and as always form is essential. So if you are new to training I recommend a postural and movement assessment to determine if you have any imbalances that need to be first addressed and corrected. Additionally being already familiar with the single exercises (e.g. bench press, bicep curl etc) is a prerequisite. Lern more about it! Soft Drinks - the drinks of champions? One of the most heavily promoted and "coolest" products around are soft drinks. Millions are spent on superstars advertising coke, pepsi and the like. We know they are not healthy but how damaging is that innocent - and many would say satisfying - can of coke to our health? Food Intolerances and Allergies - is it just in your head Food intolerance has become a major health issue today, dividing conventional and alternative medicine. Read more about how to deal with it. Depression Depression - There is no escaping it - Britain is fast becoming a Prozac nation! Read more! Pharmaceutical Industry What happens when we do get sick or fall into a state of disease? For most people that means turning to pharmaceutical drugs for relief and treatment. In the US alone pharmacies filled 3 billion drug prescriptions in 2000. "That's enough drugs for every man, woman and child to have a prescription each new month of the year!" Metabolic Typing - Interview I feel very fortunate to introduce and interview Sally Taylor, diet therapist and metabolic typing advisor as we delve deeper into the concept of an individual approach to food and Metabolic Typing. Metabolic Typing - An Introduction Are you running on the right fuel? That depends on whether you are a Ferrari or a Mack Truck? Imagine you're the owner of a beautiful, big, brand new Mack Truck, and you pull into the most exclusive petrol station that has the highest quality gasoline from the world's leading refinery. Now this gasoline is as good as it gets, and you're driving the best truck on 18 wheels. The man at the station decides to put the best quality gasoline in that big diesel engine. Oops! That Mack Truck had better have plenty of sleeping area because you’re not going anywhere fast. Now it's not the fuel's or the truck’s fault, it was simply the wrong fuel. This analogy between individuality and appropriate fuel source is the principle behind Metabolic Typing. Health and Fitness on a Budget One benefit of spending many years as a student is learning how to live a healthy life on a budget. Here is a list especially for those who say it's too expensive to live a healthy life. Preparation here is an important factor. Antibiotics - Too Much Of A Good Thing? Antibiotics have long been seen as a panacea - but is it possible to have too much of of a good thing? Some commentators certainly think so. The Soil Association is also worried, saying: "MRSA, the hospital super bug, arose through overuse of penicillin-type drugs in human medicine... it continues to mutate. This is a doomsday scenario and could cause massive loss of life." Read more about it! A beginner's guide to meditation Meditation is one of the most powerful tools for transformation. Unfortunately for many conventional people it is a "bit too out there," so it is put in a box only to be used by the likes of martial artists and yogis. I believe meditation however need not be put in a box for the few but is a tool we all inherently know but just have forgotten how to use it in daily life.
