New Happenings this Week
To boost your sporting performance, you need glucose. The body makes glucose from starches and sugars in carbohydrates, including bread, potatoes and rice and stores it in the muscles and liver as glycogen. Check out this week's article on, Eating for high energy. Namita Nayyar, AFIHot Fitness Tip of the Week
Sucking, tucking, lifting and snipping... plastic surgery is not a substitute for exercise or a healthy diet. Taking the easy way out may be tempting but without changing unhealthy habits you'll quickly be back where you started. The best way to reach your health and fitness goals and maintain your success is by making healthy lifestyle changes that you can live with forever.Words of Inspiration
What You Feed, Grows: As you go about your daily chores and the anger comes and goes, Try not to feed that anger. For, what you feed grows. I've often heard it said that what man reaps he sows. So, be careful of rotten seeds. For, what you feed grows. Choose all your thoughts wisely. For, no matter what, God knows. Thoughts plant a seed in your heart and what you feed grows.Suceess Quote
One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.- Anthony Robbins

Isometric Exercise - The Quick And Pain-Free Way to Lose Weight
By Ellen Miller
How many times have you heard the cliche, "no pain, no gain"? If you're like most middle to golden-aged women, this hardly seems like inspiration. Even if you have the desire and need to lose more than 10 to even 35 pounds, or take those inches off, when can you find the time? Maybe you're an overworked executive, a dedicated homemaker trying to keep your family and house organized, or a van-packed soccer mom. Very possibly, you occupy all these roles. Unless you are Superwoman, serving too many masters leaves no time for your needs. "Who told you life is fair?" is another cliche that comes to mind.
Isometric exercise is perfect for you. There is no time wasted driving to the gym, sweating at the gym when you get there, and then driving home exhausted to face your next responsibility. Not only will you optimize your limited time, you won't have to deal with pain or soreness as indicators of success. Considering all the things you do for others, you can set aside 10 to 15 minutes a day for yourself to dedicate to losing weight, inches and stress, and gaining much needed energy to address the inevitable and seemingly endless demands you face. This is not selfish, it is smart. If you follow the plan set out by your trainer or on a readily available isometric exercise DVD, you will actually save time, and achieve goals set by you, not forced on you.
Quick and pain-free, the programs set forth allow you to quickly improve your fitness, your attitude and your self-image. A simple combination of Isometric exercise and slow rhythmic breathing will show you dramatic results in just a few days. Within the privacy of your home, and without fancy and costly equipment, rigid dieting or wasted time, you will start to see and feel the benefits within the first week. The main venue for this easily learned low-resistance work-out will not be a snobbish gym, but a quiet room with a chair and a carpet. Most of the once-a-day isometric exercises can be performed sitting in a chair. They can also be done on the floor, or standing, depending on your limitations and capabilities. The slow controlled diaphragmatic breathing can be practiced 5 or more
times a day, whether at work, at home, in traffic, or shopping.
With the isometric exercise methods you will swiftly learn from your trainer or exercise DVD, you will use muscle resistance and contraction to burn unwanted calories. The aerobic breathing method compliments the exercise by circulating much needed oxygen though your system. As you are in complete control of the level of resistance with which you are comfortable, you never need worry about pain, soreness, or over-extending yourself.
Considering the busy, even hectic, life you lead, you've already learned to set priorities. Be your own master and set yourself high on the priority list. Integrate this quick and painless system into your routine, and you will be slimmer, happier, and more productive for yourself and those who depend on you. Regain your youthful vitality, and it will be easier to don Superwoman's cape.

In the context of physical health, weight loss is the process of losing body weight, usually by losing fat. To achieve healthy weight loss, most experts recommend a combination of healthy eating patterns and regular physical exercise.
