Supplementation For Different Populations And Goals With Ben Brown

SHOW NOTES Benjamin Brown was referred to be a speaker on the show and with most possible interviewees I do a phone call to chat first. Ben's passion for helping people manage their lives through nutrition bled through the conversation so I had to have him on. He will be going over some cases we created to simulate the profiles and goals of some listeners. He also goes into other nutritional advice you may not have heard on the evening news. Case 1: Working Mom 40 YOA, who likes to do yoga and run weekly (distance under 10 miles at a time) Goal: Stay healthy and flexible - Correlated testing? - Blood work? Etc Case 2: 35 Year old male with weekly moderate lifting session. More anaerobic. Goal is strength as they age. Not hypertrophy. Case 3: 50 year Year old male looking to get the body of a 25 year old again. Experiences some lack of energy. Overall in good health but has lofty goals. BLS Nutrition Website Ben Brown's Bio: I'm a health specialist who helps busy women (and men) lose their stubborn body fat for good. I have over 13 years experience in working with clients just like you to help them put in place realistic and easy to implement nutrition, fitness and lifestyle changes so that they can finally feel at home in their body again and get their energy and vitality back. How Do I Know How to Create Lasting Change? If you want to hear about my credentials, here they are: I have 2 masters degrees, one in Clinical Nutrition and the other one in Exercise physiology….but that's not what makes me so successful at getting the results I do for my clients. Don't get me wrong…those two degrees really help me to understand the science behind the results my clients get…but as you know, it's a lot more than that. Losing weight and keeping it off involves a lot more than science. If you have been at this awhile you know it's not all that easy, especially if you are juggling the responsibilities of raising kids and keeping up with a busy lifestyle (which we all are!). I grew up in a household of women (2 younger sisters). I have watched them my whole life struggle with their weight and body image, so I bring a good dose of patience and intuition when it comes to women and their unique struggles with weight. And I have to be honest with you, I have had my own health struggles too. I had severe stomach issues when I was in high school and the doctors put on all kinds of medications that didn't help at all. Add to that the debilitating fatigue I experienced when I was working on my 2nd Masters Degree, had a brand new baby in the house, all while trying to run my own personal training business. There were many times when I'd lost my self-confidence and every aspect of my life was suffering and I just kept making excuses for why I couldn't eat better or exercise more (or at all). But one day I decided to stop making excuses and start making a change. I learned exactly what I needed to do regain my health, my vitality, my confidence, and my abs and all while still managing my day-to-day responsibilities AND committing to my wife and 3 kids.

Elderly often lose the taste for animal protein, resulting in a lose muscles mass and gain body fat as we age.

How to Regulate Your Tension With Kori Strobl Yoga Instructor

SHOW NOTES If you're like most people, you encounter frequent, daily stressors. You're not alone. Did you ever think about taking a physical chill pill rather than numbing your mind/ body? People numb themselves to de-stress, to get away from their thoughts. Some examples of common de-stressing habits: Watching TV Beer/ wine Drugs Kori Strobl ( Her Website ) explains how she uses her style of yoga to assist with de-stressing. The intention of this podcast was to be a resource to the general public about why they should try yoga, if at all, but the podcast turned into so much more. If you're a clinician and people ask you if they should try yoga, suggest they hear this podcast. Yoga comes in many different forms and the public should be informed of what type is right for them.

This process is a deeply personal journey toward self-knowledge, self-love, and inner peace. Kori's teaching is inspired by her connection with her Higher Power, whom she refers to as God . As such, her classes, workshops and private sessions are creative, unique and offered humbly with a sense of reverence and humor. Kori Strobl has been a compassionate, loving, and thoughtful teacher for the many students and clients she has worked with over the years. Using her own experiences of overcoming years of depression and healing from what was diagnosed as a "life-long" chronic pain disorder, Kori has inspired others to tap into their own courage and embark on a journey toward self-awareness and healing. Through yoga postures, breath work, guided meditation and direct and insightful dialogue and exercises, Kori encourages her clients to be honest and loving as they discover what has been holding them back in owning and expressing their unique brilliance and heart-centered passion.

HIIT And Short Workouts Can Jumpstart Your Metabolism With Jenn Zerling

SHOW NOTES Trying to lose weight but that New Year's Resolution just isn't happening? Jennifer Zerling is on the mic today to share some less known facts about losing weight. Weight loss occurs more rapidly if we can jumpstart our metabolism and high intensity training is the tool for the job. HIITs is the acronym. HIITs can be categorized as a near maximum bout of effort in a small time frame (ie 30 seconds). The break can be short or long, so basically it is undefined, unlike TABATA which has a set work/rest period. Jennifer, aka "JZ," was able to be part of a study in middle schoolers and found a significant change in body composition when subjected to intermittent high intensity training. We talk all about it! As you'll be able to tell we have a lot of fun on this call. JZ's Bio: Jenn Zerling, MS, CPT, known as JZ , has been an athlete her whole life and a fitness and age management expert for over 15 years. She holds a Masters degree in Kinesiology, a Corrective Exercise Specialist credential, a Running certification, yoga 200+ hour certification and many other national certifications. Her Mission: To Help America And The World Break The Chains Of Obesity And Age Well. How is she going to do this? One person at a time, one goal at a time. She holds multiple positions in her field which allow her to meet open minded individuals who are thirsty to evolve. From top world executives, Hollywood producers, athletes, doctors, lawyers, students to you name it. JZ thrives off of helping any individual who is open and ready to make it happen and learn how to optimize their lives. Her "be-who-you-are" philosophy is what sets her apart from people in her industry. Website: https://www.jzfitness.com/ Her Book: Breaking the Chains of Obesity: 107 Tools http://amzn.to/2zezMjD Quotes: "You may not have 30 mins but TABATA is only 4 mins…" "We are built to move in all planes of motion and we gotta move the body way it was built" "Some people don't want to get started with weight loss because of the high number (of mins in a workout)" "Everyone comes to the table with a different level of fitness" "Even 65% heart rate efforts will be productive for deconditioned people… it's a start" Sebastian's Youtube Channel Attention Docs and Fitness Professionals: Access your client educational products, banners and posters here.

Personal Story Of Knee Pain Recovery

SHOW NOTES I've had my fair share of injuries, trauma and non-traumatic based. I've had what most would call IT Band Pain, Lateral Meniscus tear, Compression Fracture of the lateral tibial plateau. I've been frustrated just like you, my knee injuries limited my baseball, lifting and running. Some treatments I used are: Physical Therapy Synvisc Injection Cortisone Injection Rest Ice H-Wave Active Release Rocktape And much much more. I had some ups and downs but what I found the hardest part of the injury to control was the swelling. The swelling was enough to make me feel like I had a ziplock bag in my knee. I thought about it as I walked, squatted and fell asleep. How did I get over these knee woes? Listen to the podcast and you'll see... Quotes: " Knee injuries, unless from trauma, are not found in isolation." "It felt like an ice pick stabbing my knee.." "I think stiffness around around the knee was helpful to stabilize the knee."
