Best Bicep Workouts for Mass Building By Jason, CSCS There's no denying it, a set of big arms looks impressive. And there isn't a guy around who doesn't want bulging biceps.

Most people, including karate and so-called self-defense experts really don't know where to start when it comes to mastering the ability to protect yourself against a real-world violent attacker. This article takes a look at the two-fold approach that I suggest for clients who are serious about surviving a street assault. To look at the conventional world of martial arts and self-defense instruction, the conventional approach seems to be to just get a few of skills, receive some cool-looking belt or maybe a certification of some sort, and presto, you're set.

The last few weeks I have been really getting into and writing about the nutritional sides of things. There is so much to be said about nutrition and all of the new research and discoveries that have been made in the field; it is an exciting and scary time. But I am going back to exercise this week. Firstly I want to say I'm not here to judge anyone. I have made all these mistakes myself at some point; lets say these are just observations.

Walking is one of the easiest, most prescribed cardiovascular exercises you can do. A healthy, active adult should strive for 10,000 steps per day (about 5 miles). A sedentary adult should aim for 1,000 to 3,000 steps per day and gradually increase steps until the 10,000 goal is achieved. Wearing a pedometer is the best way to track your steps.

My parents told me, once upon a time all food was naturally organic, then “they” (the 'evil' food companies) started using pesticides and preservatives and they said “you can eat fruit all year round” and “this stuff is better because it lasts longer”, and charged us more for it. Now they take the pesticides and preservatives away and call it organic, and you guessed, charge us more for it! Okay firstly what does organic actually mean?

The gym, a place of titanic struggles, epic distances, blood, sweat and sometimes tears! It is a place you go to improve yourself. As a personal trainer I put 100% effort into my workouts and expect the same from my clients when I challenge them with a workout. Did you know that a massive 60% of adults in the UK are obese? That worries me, seriously, how could things have got this bad. The fast food craze seems to have taken over. People more often than not will go for speed and convenience over planning and preparation.

The most important factor in improving and maintaining performance of any kind is recovery. This includes both physical and mental improvement and maintenance.

Most of us know someone who has awakened the day after his/her first exercise session and discovered they were so sore they could barely walk! Working-out should not be a painful event. It should be an enjoyable experience that you want to do again and again. Here are some tips to help you have a better workout and reduce your risk of injury.

I took on a new personal training client earlier in the summer, and she point blank told me that she “hated exercise, and everything to do with it!” She said she had slogged away in the gym for years, up to 90 minutes, three times a week and hated every minute of it, and seeing very little by the way of results. (She was about to sign up to one of my 6 month coaching programmes, so was very relieved when I told her that exercise is the smallest component of the programme and we would be doing just 60 minutes per week. Find out how she got on below)

Multivitamin, by definition, means a grouping of vitamins and minerals compacted into a single pill. Statistically, about 70 percent of Americans take a daily multivitamin, but how do you know the multivitamin you are taking is actually working for you, or healthy for you? Unfortunately, not all multivitamins are created equal. In fact, they are constructed in five different ways: Natural, meaning the nutrients are obtained from vegetable, mineral, or animal sources with limited to no processing. Natural source, meaning they are like the above but the good is processed.

The title of ‘Number One Exercise’ is a pretty big one but hopefully after reading this article you will only be able to agree with me.

There are many different squat variations you can do (I will discuss a few of them later) but on the whole the benefits you can get from squatting are massive. What’s so good about the squat?

I've noticed throughout the past couple of years (and it's no secret that) as members of the "westernized" world, we put far more emphasis on fighting things than we do trying to work with them...As opposed to Eastern philosophies that teach flow and working with a situation rather than trying to fight it. When I say we fight, I mean we fight to stay healthy, we fight our mental illnesses, and saddest of all, we fight each other; because that's what we have been taught.

Every New Year the gym is packed full of eager exercisers ready to achieve results. A month or two passes, resolutions go awry, and people give up. Don’t fall victim to this cycle!

Getting into the best shape of our lives is not easy. Diet and exercise is the bane of existence for many Americans. For some, getting in great shape is a far-reaching goal, at least when one is trying for fitness without any guidance or training. To have just the discipline alone is difficult, but what about all the background knowledge and problem solving? Where does one start when trying to lose “love handles” or if you’ve tried everything and nothing works? While the Internet provides a plethora of resources, application of said gained knowledge can be challenging.

Mixing up your exercise routine is the best way to avoid weight loss plateaus and achieve great results. One of these fitness trends is sure to fire up your metabolism, keep you motivated, and help you accomplish your goals. Exergaming (Active Gaming)r

Relaxation…without drugs or alcohol. When I was growing up in my teenage and student year’s people would relax by taking drugs of some sort, prescribed, legal and illegal. I want to differentiate between natural relaxation and chemical relaxatio Most evenings people have a routine which they go through to relax, sometimes it’s a simple thing like a nice hot bath, sometimes it takes something a little stronger.

So today I want to talk about those nasty looking black fillings, or mercury amalgam fillings. I can guarantee that many of you reading this today have 1 or probably more mercury fillings in your mouth, if you do then you really want to be reading this. Before going onto fillings and the controversy surrounding them, I just want to talk about the substance Mercury.

The phrase “no pain, no gain” may still be prevalent among some bodybuilders, but for those of us who are just looking for a workout to stay in shape, this directive is out of date, and you don’t have to exercise until it hurts to get the benefit. “’Feel the burn’ is so 1980s!” said yogini Erin Michaela Sweeney, who recommends “feel the ease” in a self-paced vinyasa yoga flow instead. “I highly recommend Sun Salutation A for warmer months and Moon Salutati

”23.6 million children and adults in the USA have diabetes” (2007 National Diabetes Fact Sheet http://www.diabetes.org/diabetes-basics/diabetes-statistics). And, according to the American Diabetes Association, the number of Americans with diabetes is expected to increase to more than 30 million by 2030 (http://www.acefitness.org/fitfacts/fitfacts_display.aspx?itemid=29).

Most people actually choose to die than to change their behaviour - fact. I know that is a strong statement but after reading this short article hopefully you will be able to see where I am coming from. So what about you? Are you UNABLE to stop eating or drinking booze? If so, don’t sweat, you are just like the majority of people in the western world today, they also ultimately choose death rather than to change their behaviour. Personally I can’t think of anything worse than being “just like everybody else” and just letting it happen. Many people in the Western World are:r

Frank is walking up and down the aisle at his home tow Superstore impatiently waiting for his wife to hurry up and pick a purse. The game is coming on in a half hour and he still needs time to set up the den for the fellas to come over, and he STILL has to make the nachos. She said this was only going to take a half an hour, an hour and a half ago. On top of everything else, he’s been feeling a little off lately. There are times he feels a little dizzy and has had a little chest tightness, but stress will do that to you. And neither one of his parents had heart issues when they died.

On those days when you feel like you “just can’t take it anymore,” exercise can be your solution to stress relief.

We live in a high paced, high stressed world. Most of us suffer from some sort of stress, myself included. Busy busy busy all of the time. Not even enough time to stop and take a deep breath and relax for a moment. Everyone working full time, longing for each day to be over so you can go home a rest, maybe with a glass of wine or a beer. Financial worries, work problems and family and social issues seem to get the better of a lot of people in the world today and understandably they struggle to cope. High levels of stress can lead to a whole host of serious health problems.

The most common complaint I hear as a personal trainer is “I don’t have time to workout.” Exercise should be like brushing your teeth. It’s something you should do everyday. Here are some tips to help you fit physical activity into your day:

1. In the beginning, your fitness plan should not be overly aggressive. One of the biggest problems most people encounter when starting a fitness program is rapidly depleted motivation after only a few weeks due to an overly ambitious fitness plan. Two days per week of 20-minute low-intensity cardiovascular exercise (walking, jogging, biking, swimming); and two days per week of 30-minute light resistance training (using weights or resistance machines) is adequate in the beginning. As you become acclimated to the lifestyle “shift” you can add more days and get improved results.

Being a personal trainer exercise is one of the most important parts of my life. I experience the massive benefits of an active lifestyle which is the reason why I turned it into a career so others can experience the same benefits as me.

This week’s short and hopefully valuable post will give you ten TOP exercise tips for those of you who want to start going again or just need a bit of new advice:

Through life as a personal trainer and health coach people often look up to me and see me as a role model when it comes to exercise and healthy eating. People often ask me questions like what do I have for breakfast, what do I do in the gym every day, why don't I ever fall off the 'health wagon' and a lot more! I'm happy to tell people the answers. For the record for breakfast I have a green vegetable smoothie 3-4 days a week. Training days I have fruit, nuts and bio/greek yoghurt, or sometimes I skip breakfast, or I have bacon and eggs or similar.

The biggest trend in the fitness world isn't the CrossFit ring training program but the fact that more older and elderly Americans are starting to work out with personal trainers.

The science of aging reveals a secret we have known all along

This article is all about inflammation. Some of our bodies are already on fire on the inside, and some of our habits are the same as throwing petrol on that fire. That’s what I will explain today – How to put that fire out, or at least get it back under control. Just to recap, inflammation is the body’s biological response of attempting to protect itself.

Anything done with a rounded backr It doesn’t matter if you’re squatting, deadlifting, straight-leg deadlifting, rowing, or even doing triceps kickbacks, you must STOP doing these exercises with a rounded lower back. That’s a one-way ticket to a herniated disc. And you do not want to go there.

The westernized world is pretty unhealthy. I come from Wales and more than a quarter of all over 40’s are obese. We are also an ageing nation, with around 45 per cent of us being over 45 years old. These figures, combined with the continued downward trend in activity levels, makes Wales a ticking time bomb when it comes to health and this is the same with many other countries today. We are getting older and sicker as a nation. As we get older, our bodies begin to change fast. Our muscles and bones become weaker, we get grey hair and wrinkles, and we get stiffer.

rn I have had women get awesome arms from doing this workout 3x a week. You can do this at home or even on the road when your in your hotel room.

Today I would like to talk to you about food, not the good kinds. Our supermarkets are filled with food that has a nutritional value of, well nothing! Foods which are packed with chemicals, toxins and hydrogenated fat just to make them ‘tasty’ and more importantly convenient!

I have some very exciting news for all people in their 40’s, 50’s and 60’s. As many of you are aware, getting into shape does not simply come down to exercise and a healthy diet, there are other factors to consider. Our hormones play a huge part in our internal physiology, and if out of balance hormonally, it can make it more or less impossible to lose fat. Unfortunately when we age our body struggles in producing its natural hormones. These hormones include oestrogen, testosterone, progesterone, DHEA, human growth hormones, thyroid and melatonin.

One of my friends called in an expert trainer for one of their dogs last weekend. He told me there’s nothing particularly wrong with the dog, he’s just got a few things he’s scared of and ends up over-reacting. He was telling me what the trainer did with the dog. He was fascinated by how the trainer used the whole de-sensitisation and positive association process to “fix” the dog. Regular, mild exposure to the things that are scary, along with regular positive reinforcement solved the issues! I thought this was really interesting, that’s why I'm sharing it with you.

Remember in your younger days when your mother and teacher constantly reminded you to stand up tall, and as you sat at the dining room table you kept hearing the words over and over, "Sit up straight!" Well, it seems that they were right! Poor posture will catch up with you, and if you happen to slouch for long periods, the more likely you will have an aching back and some other health issues later in life. Good posture is quite essential in our lives. It is just as necessary

This is about a conversation that I had with several of my clients - parents who bring their children to me for self defense training - about several catastrophic workplace violence attacks that occurred practically back-to-back. I'm sharing this story because it demonstrates what I call, "backwards thinking," and how your beliefs about a thing can be the very thing that is preventing you from solving it. This event centers around the unfortunate event that took place at a military post, where a doctor - an officer of the U.S. Army - killed and wounded several soldiers in a fit of rage.

The world has a problem, obesity levels are through the roof. In some parts of the UK around 57% of people are either overweight or obese and in the US its 67%. By 2020 its reported to be around 70% and 80% respectively – now they are crazy statistics if you ask me. There is a human time bomb waiting to go off, I believe there are lots of people walking around with life threatening illnesses like cancer AND THEY DON’T EVEN KNOW IT! They are just weeks and months away from the big tap on the shoulder from the grim reaper which will change their lives forever.

Vegetarianism is defined as “the practice of abstaining from the consumption of meat – red meat, poultry, seafood and the flesh of any other animal”.

Many of us are shallow breathers and we don’t even realize it. Shallow breathing is the act of breathing more from the chest area not the diaphragm.

I was chatting with one of my personal training clients about these body transformation programmes and fast weight loss programmes. She told me she had been comparing her results to her friends. Her friend had lost two stone by just drinking shakes and eating bars and she had only lost a stone in 4 weeks, so she wasn’t too happy. Comparing yourself to others is often a bad idea. I used to do this myself too, many years ago. Anytime I went to the gym, I always felt inadequate. I compared myself to the biggest and strongest guys. So I felt I was the skinniest and the weakest.

Health markers such as high cholesterol, being overweight, having diabetes, smoking, being stressed out, being inactive or having high blood pressure(BP) are all signs (indicators) that you’re at risk of developing problems with your heart and brain later on in life.

Those are the most high percentage techniques for a self defense situation.

I have spotted some new IMPORTANT stuff I wanted to share today. I'm trying to remove the confusion which seems to surround the whole area of exercise and nutrition. This has meant that I have spent a lot more time reading – researching books, scientific jou als and the internet. Every now and then I come across a new word or term which I have never seen before. They all relate to your health and weight loss efforts. If you can get your head around this lot then you will have a better idea of what you need to do to lose weight.

We all know that in order to make physically improvements we need to train outside of our comfort zone.

Have you ever heard the story about the chimp and the peanut? It's very interesting and relates to us all in some way. Allow me to share the story… Once upon a time a researcher observed the behaviour of a group of chimps. I’m not sure why, but the researcher provided the chimps with paint, brushes and paper. They demonstrated to the chimps what should be done with these new “tools”. Then, if a chimp made an attempt at a paining (paintbrush on paper) they were rewarded with a peanut.

If you have elevated cholesterol and or take statin medication, you need to read this. Mostly we all think cholesterol is bad for us, this is because it’s what we have been told over the last 50 years or more. Cholesterol is often described as “artery clogging” and is used as an indicator of heart disease, and it is that relationship we will look at today. Most people believe the less cholesterol they have in their diet the better. What would you think if I said nothing could be further from the truth?

It's an old story. You join a gym, go two or three times, then lose your enthusiasm. Not only do you feel like a failure, but you've thrown money down the drain. For all the gym memberships sold each year, there are few success stories. That may be why in-home personal training is on the rise. The fancy gym membership is just a perk. It doesn't matter where you work out, as long as you work out, right? All it really takes is a little space, some simple equipment, and a DVD or

There was an interesting article I read recently online titled: Saturated Fat Heart Disease ‘Myth’. It is great to see the truth about saturated fat finally making the news. If you have read some of my previous articles you might know that I am a big advocate of eating all types of natural fats even though they are demonised by food companies as being the cause of all sorts of problems, especially saturated fats. Just to remind you saturated fats come from foods such as butter, steak, eggs, bacon, sausage, nuts, coconut oil, fish oil, chocolate, cream and cheese.

As a normal part of business, most companies take steps to make sure that their employees are healthy and safe. They know its not just the right thing to do, but by providing benefits like insurance, wellness programs, continuing education opportunities, and the like, they are providing for ...

People tend to want and demand cheap food, and now scientists may have come up with a solution. I’m not sure how many of you heard this in the news a few weeks ago but a beef burger has been grown in a laboratory in the Netherlands by a team of scientists. The burger was then cooked by a British chef in London and tasted by several food critics in front of a live audience. Crazy stuff! It’s quite exciting in some ways, a true reflection of just how far technology has come. The sun newspaper has labelled it ‘A historic step towards wiping out hunger’.

I hate vegetables. More specifically boiled veg. They just make me gag. For someone like me (a fitness and nutrition guy) you may be surprised that I’m telling you this. But I have to be honest with you, I hate them, especially boiled cabbage. It all started in my childhood… My mother used to crucify the veg and boil it to within an inch of its life. I have memories from a young age of eating my Sunday dinner at the table with my brother and sister and actually crying and begging to be able to leave the table and not eat my veg.

Cancer is devastating. It’s a terrible disease that ends the lives of millions and ruins the lives of our families and friends.

I thought twice about writing an article about this very sensitive, and for me personally, emotional topic.

Yes that’s right, I’m giving more of the fitness industry secrets away – for FREE! This information has massive financial value and some personal trainers will be cringing. Some personal trainers have actually said to me “Rich why are you giving away all your inside secrets?” and I say “these are not my secrets to keep, this information is readily available, if you just know where to look, I’m just sharing my experiences with people and speaking in a language people can understand – plain English!”.

Paunch belly. Pot belly. Pooch belly. Pouch belly. Call it what you want but its does not change the fact that you want rid of it!

Each year I am hired to go to Washington , DC , with the eighth grade class from Clinton , WI where I grew up, to videotape their trip. I greatly enjoy visiting our nation’s capitol, and each year I take some special memories back with me. This fall’s trip was especially memorable. On the last night of our trip, we stopped at the Iwo Jima memorial. This memorial is the largest bronze statue in the world and depicts one of the most famous photographs in history — that of

Just like saturated fat, salt has a very bad reputation. Just like saturated fat, salt is actually needed in the body for it to work optimally. Salt is not totally harmless, but it’s not the devil in disguise either. Confused? Most people are. Basically our body needs salt but at the same time research has proven that too much of it can also be bad for us. Today I will explain why this confusion has arisen and what you need to know and what you can do about it.

The first course of action in mentally preparing yourself for a disaster is not to become panic-stricken at the prospect that a disaster could strike at any time.

Is obesity a disease or an addiction? I have been pondering this one recently disease or an addiction. Obesity is now classed as a disease in the America. This has obviously raised a lot of questions on whether this is right. Do the people have no choice about their diet and what they eat? I would agree that “traditional” approaches including diet and exercise have FAILED for so many obese people as the obesity figures across the western world are worrying to say the least. We need alte atives to the obesity problem and a "magic pill” would be welcomed by many.

Fat loss! Many people have wracked their brains trying to find out the best ways to lose fat, as a Personal Trainer my research into fat loss has brought me many great strategies and nearly as many ridiculous strategies.

Working as a personal trainer in fitness industry for many years I’ve noticed one common trend, about 90% of the people that workout struggle to change their body and reach their goals. I see member after member coming into the gym 5 to 6 days a week without dropping a single pound. Now, there are obviously other reasons for exercising such as health and longevity, but in the area that I live most people care about one thing, aesthetics. So why does your average person struggle to lose weight, gain muscle, and reap the other benefits of their hard work?

I also drive an average of 250 miles a day (4 hours sitting) to see my clients. We all will experience a lower back

I am on the subject of health, specifically people who suffer from Diabetes. It’s useful even if you don’t, because you may know someone who has it or you may get it in the future (statistically).

As a Personal Trainer in Swansea my day starts at 6am every morning, this does not mean that I do not get a good night’s sleep. We all love the great feeling of waking up from a great night’s sleep; it gives you the perfect start to the day. We’ve also all felt sluggish for the whole day after a bad night’s sleep, so we need to make sure we are getting enough sleep in our lives. Getting less than 6 hours a sleep can not only leave us feeling tired and unable to function properly for the day but can also be bad for your health. Here are some other benefits of a good night’s rest:

There are some days when I will not be following my normal eating plan. For example a day in the school holidays where my son is off school and I book the day off work to take him and the family somewhere for a day out. I will definitely have a coffee or two and will probably have at least one “treat meal”. I could have anything like a pizza or a burger, with a few chips and a coke of course. I tell you this so you know I’m normal, I eat bad food too, so do my clients. The big difference is, it’s usually in context. This type of indulgence has been planned in.

Did you know obesity is now an actual disease in America? The American Medical Association voted to classify it as a disease last year. Ove ight millions of Americans became officially “diseased”. Is this a crazy or clever move? I don’t really know. Basically they are saying being fat is the same as being sick. I’m not going to get into the pros and cons too much but you can safely say it has split people's opinions. People have come out and said it's gonna be a licence for people NOT to diet and to take pills.

First came low fat then came low carb. But which one is better? I saw a programme the other night on the TV comparing an extreme high fat diet to an extreme high carb diet. They used two doctors who were actually twins, in the experiment which lasted a month. The results may surprise a few people. One thing that would certainly surprise most people is that both doctors had no idea what the effects of the diets were going to be. To quote one of them:r

I was recently talking to a lady who I met in the gym she was telling me about how it was a new week and she was going to get herself back on track and lose the weight she wanted to. Firstly it is great that the lady was in the gym on a Monday and a bit fired up to start her week on the front foot with some healthy eating and quality exercise. She was making the NORMAL decision to start things off on a Monday (again). Its the beginning of the week. The best place to start don't you think? Well maybe not. Let me explain why Monday is probably not the best day to start a new diet.r

When people say they want to ‘lose weight’, what they are usually trying to say is that they want to lose their body fat (bf). The difference, however, is crucial. Losing weight is far easier than losing bf. In this article I will explain what I believe is a very important area that anyone who is overweight needs to understand.

As a personal trainer and nutritional expert, personally I would say that going organic is definitely worth it. Yes, it does cost quite a bit more but you are making an investment in the future. What do I mean? Well by buying organic food you are getting more benefits that a nicer tasting meal, by making a stand against processed food and purchasing organic food you are saying no to the chemicals, hormones and toxins which are being pumped into our meat, eggs, fruit and vegetables. You are showing that you actually care about what you are putting into your body on a day to day basis.

A personal training client of mine recently got on the scales and was disappointed by what she saw. She was feeling positive and thought everything was going well until she got on the scales and had not lost a single pound. Of course she then went from feeling positive, to the complete opposite, disappointed, gutted and a bit angry that she hadn’t been “rewarded” for her last week or so’s efforts. We have all been there. It feels like its not fair.

A lot of people will find it hard to believe that exercise will give you energy. How can an activity which depletes so many of your body’s stores give you more energy? Well as a personal trainer for many years I can tell you that it really does. I know if you’re tired the last thing in many people’s thoughts would be to go to the gym or to go for a run, but if you do go for it you will feel just as energized if not more so than you would if you had taken a nap.

One of the best tips I can offer as a personal trainer of over 15 years, is to keep a food or dietary journal. As we all know, diet or nutrition is the most critical part of any fitness plan.

If you have questions on what to include you can contact one of our trainers at Visit Personal trainers in Annandale for

Do you ever get “Fat ugly days”? Days when you just feel fat and ugly and don’t want to leave the house? My wife was having a fat and ugly day yesterday according to her. She said it’s very common amongst women, especially at a certain time of the month. rn(and some men too of course) To be honest “fat ugly day” is not a term I had ever heard until a few years ago. I first heard it from a comedian and my wife thought it was hilarious and said she could relate to feeling like that.

I was in the gym with a client doing some squats the other morning. He was telling me how he was feeling a bit “bloated and wobbly" around the tummy area and had put on half a stone in a matter of days. He lifted up his shirt to prove it, and he looked to me, to be holding water. Now this chap is like a racing snake, he is quite slim, so I knew a diet is not what he needed. But as I said he was holding water – BIG TIME - he was like a pregnant woman. He knew why, he had been a naughty boy he just wanted me to help him get it off as quickly as it had come on.

Our brains are wonderful things, when they work properly. They say we have two voices/people inside each of us. Your brain and thoughts can make or break your success in anything you choose to do. Not sure if you are aware but your brain has two levels of function. Things are either done at a conscious level or the subconscious level. They are two very different mental places. Subconscious (or unconscious) stuff is usually done without you realising it. Like driving a car. Ever make a journey and arrive at your destination and the journey was a blur?r

Have you heard the one about the man who had a patch stitched into his tongue so he could eat less food? I’m afraid to say there is no punch line and it’s not even a joke, it’s true. Some people are so stupid. They would rather opt for crazy surgery than do so basic things right. The procedure involves a tongue patch being SEWN onto your tongue to make eating and swallowing so painful that people with it will only be able to eat liquid foods. People with the tongue patch are then given an 800 calorie a day liquid nutrition programme to follow.

Anyway this event throws out your healthy eating plan/regime sometimes only for 1 day but it can have a big effect.

If you continually do something again and again then it becomes boring, exercise is no different. Being a personal trainer in Swansea I can assure you that it is vital that you don’t let your training go stale. I love exercise, it is one of the biggest parts of my life but not even I could enjoy 100 sit ups a day 5 days a week, every week! By adding new exercises and types of training to your workout program you are ensuring that it never gets boring, as well as allowing yourself the opportunity to try out new potentially great exercises.

As we begin 2007 and look back at the last decade one must appreciate the progress that has been made in the industry. From an industry then plagued by under qualified certification associations to now becoming an industry of maturing certifying bodies appropriately achieving NOCA/NCCA ...

Last Monday during a session with my personal training clients I was talking to the girls who have just joined one of my new group programmes. The group is there to teach exercise primarily but I would never train anyone without at least informing them of the basics of diet in relation to exercise. So there we were at the end of the session having a chat about food/diet/weight loss etc.

Every year where I live and around the UK many people get the flu jab in an attempt to ward off the flu like symptoms for the dark cold winter months. Let me explain why, unless you are in a “high risk” group you should not bother with the flub jab. They advertise Flu Season like it is a party. Balloons and banners everywhere up the surgery and supermarkets. The "good news" this year is, that 4 year old’s can now get it! I think it's wrong. 1. The vaccination is full of TOXIC chemicals which are dangerous for your body. And B I personally don’t even think it works.

The word overload triggers a degree in caution in most people I would say. As a personal trainer in Swansea I have planned and designed thousands of exercise programmes and worked with thousands of different clients of all ranges and abilities. In order for my clients to improve I need to structure my training programs in a progressive manner. Build people up as it were…. In order for the body to improve it needs to be pushed to its limits, however I can’t stress enough that this needs to be done gradually over a period of time.

I was having a chat with a lady in the gym recently. She was “starting back” (AGAIN). I said “how’s the training going?” She said “its ok at the minute, but ask me again in a couple of weeks”. I said, “Why, what do you mean?” She said “every time I try to get fit and lose some weight, I do really well for a few weeks and then I usually get ill” This is something which is VERY common. So as always I thought I would share some practical advice to make your life a bit easier. Here is the scenario…

So the cold weather has arrived a tad early and it has left many people wanting to “hibe ate” through until spring. Get the shopping in, close the door, put the TV on and don’t leave the house all day, sound familiar? In the UK at this time of year, the amount of daylight we get is less than half of what we get in July, 8 hours per day in December compared to 16.5 hours per day in July. Due to this, many people in the UK suffer from a vitami D deficiency. So do you just accept it as the way it is or do you do something about it?

I wonder what you are all thinking, McDonalds maybe, KFC, Burger King, Pizza, Chocolate I would imagine would be the most common answers to this question. Quite surprising that these things spring to mind and are probably consumed more than most in the world today. Being a personal trainer one of my primary aims is to educate my client’s and readers, on how to eat healthily. Eating healthily is one of the primary factors in determining one’s health. A bad diet = bad health a good diet = good health more often than not.

Wireless alarms, including an infrared system that detects motion, are a new alternative in home security devices. These easy-to-operate wireless alarms mount easily and can be used to protect a single room or an entire home. Depending upon your needs and price range, there are wireless alarm systems available for every lifestyle and budget. Whether you need a dual function door security bar to protect your garage, an infrared system that detects motion to protect your apartm

Study after study has confirmed what we have known to be true forever; the home environment you grow up in, and the habits you are exposed to, become the habits of your adulthood. You may rebel against them for a decade, but they are the single most influential factor in the health status of adults in their 30s and beyond. This is just another reason why being a fit father is the right choice. You are doing more to ensure your children’s security in their adulthood than working overtime and putting money in a trust. Money they can always earn - health is something much harder to inherit.

The work place is a competitive environment, and is even more competitive in recent times. With promotions becoming all the more important, people are willing to do whatever needs to be done to keep their jobs or get a new one. To get the “bit extra”, you need to do that bit extra, right? Starting work earlier. Finishing work later. Working through your lunch hour. Eating in the car or on the run. You have kept this routine up for years. You are putting in 50-60hrs a week, your boss is very happy. You are doing well. This is how a lot of us live our lives.

The health and fitness industry is bucking the trend of current unemployment fears by showing positive signs of growth, latest research has revealed.

So what does this mean for fitness professionals? The personal training industry continues to grow and flourish as more people recognise th

We’ve all been there, pigging out at the weekend, had a stressful day in work come home and ordered a curry, this is life I’m afraid. As a personal trainer I’m not ashamed to say that I’ve been there myself. Many people train and train, they improve their fitness but the reason that their results aren’t as impressive as they should be is down to their nutrition programme. Often the toughest part of a healthy life is choosing the foods you eat, you only need to dedicate about 5 hours a week to training whereas you need to commit to eating well 24/7!

A personal trainer is not like a magic wand that can give you access to a dream health and desired body shape. When you hire a trainer you should know his limitations that can only be breached with proper communication. Before, you employ a trainer you make a lot of enquiries, however, there are things that he is entitled to know about you. Therefore, it is better to bridge the communication gap between you and your trainer by telling him the following three things. Any ailme

Fat loss! Many people have wracked their brains trying to find out the best ways to lose fat, as a Personal Trainer in Swansea my research into fat loss has brought me many great strategies and nearly as many ridiculous strategies.

BMI, Body Mass Index. How many of you have been to the doctor’s for a regular check-up and had your BMI calculated? Or maybe you have gone on one of those scales at the gym or in boots which gives a little print out? They use BMI too. I’m assuming most of you have, it’s fairly common practice. Doctors and health practitioners love the BMI as it’s simple to understand. Calculating someone’s BMI is one of the EASIEST ways of determining whether you are overweight, obese or underweight.

Today sportsmen and women push themselves to the extreme limits of their physical capabilities and place massive amounts of strain on their bodies, at a professional level as well as the normal public like you who attend boot camp and work your ass off in the gym. These strains and stresses result in muscular and connective tissue problems, of varying severity, which can be alleviated through massage. Sports massage is usually briefer in duration and more vigorous than a general full-body massage focusing as it does on the particular muscles relevant to your athletics activity.

Being a personal trainer for over 15 years I have tried lots of so called “wonder foods”. I consider myself quite adventurous in the field of cooking, not good I may add just adventurous! When people try to lose weight they think that their food choices are severely limited to salad and ryvitas, this is one of the reasons why so many diets fail, and it doesn’t have to be the case.

Over the years I have spent 1000’s of hours designing and writing out various diet plans. Every time I go through the process I try to improve it and make it work better for the individual.

Unfortunately the more work I put into these diets and alike the more complicated and difficult they become. I have probably over thought it. People NEED to get the basics right that's all it will take initially for a lot of people.

Do you all remember back in school (could be taking some of you back a while here) in chemistry experimenting with those ph strips made of litmus paper? We used these to determine whether a substance was acidic or alkaline. 1-6 = acidic, 7-13 = alkaline. We are also able to find out whether our body is more acidic than alkaline simply by placing your tongue on a ph strip. Ideally you would like to be 7.24 alkaline. What is the difference between being acidic and alkaline?

Today I wanted to share a little story with you about exercise and how it may not always be the best option. My wife said to me the other day that she can't keep on going to her regular bootcamp sessions as she is going to put weight on due to her poor diet and drinking.
