Good Habit before eating breakfast

Grab you a broom stick and locate a watch or clock.
Place broom stick behind head, rest on shoulder and grab the ends with your hands.
We are going to do side twist for as long as possible and time yourself.
Now every time you twist to one side flex the opposite side of your obliques.
Every morning work on improving your time.
You will be amazed at your waist shrinking just by this simple exercise.
Now why it will work, your body is breaking down and ready to eat, thus it's looking for energy to burn.
So if you have not eaten breakfast where does the body look for fuel.
That's right, your tummy and bunns.

Good luck!

New Experiences

Dare to attempt things you've never done before (challenge yourself everyday).  Every well-honed skill you have was once a new experience.

Control your diet will lead to less work in the Gym

For example my body burns 1850 k/cal per day (doing nothing, this is at rest).  Calculate an extra 400 k/cal for my gym time (calories burned training) and from here I can create a diet to gain a pound a week or lose.  All depends on individual goal.  But for me, I just want to maintain.  I bring this up because with my experience I can't tell you how many times I see trainers overtraining there clients.  Lastnight I had a trainer say, "well they don't get results (clients), so we train them harder".  O.K. stop,  If you are a trainer you have to be a coach too.  You have to help your client stick to that diet b/c that's where the results come from, not killing them in the gym.  Anyway, rubbed me the wrong way.  You have to take care of your clients so they will enjoy it, come back and hopefully learn the tools you have provided them so they may venture out on there own.
