  • p.s. The "running shoe" idea is OK but not ideal. Shoes that are "Fitted to your foot" are designed to hold your foot on straight instead of crooked. Ideally, I try to get my people in a position where their muscles can hold them in place rather than shoe support.
  • 95% of clients who come to me with knee pain have a muscular imbalance. Most people who run overuse their quads (Fronts of their legs) and under-use their butt and hamstrings (backs of legs). If you never sprint, you can have a weak deep pelvis. The doc is going to tell you to do one of a few of the following 1. Stop…
  • I just found this thread and wanted to reactivate it because it's some good info :) enjoy!
  • Does this count as another one on top of your shaking arms? BAHAHAHHAA :)
  • do a little digging ;)
  • Though many people can get in shape with cereal in the morning, most find they can do it faster with less of an insulin spike early. Might behoove you to switch to a higher protein/fat breakfast and save the carby stuff for later :) Nate trainbetter.org
  • Hey Tay :) I make my living off of helping people push through this stuff. It sounds like you need to look a little deeper. Now before I tell you this, I'm just going to let you know that some people are going to follow my comment by saying how dumb I am and blah blah blah. It always happens, but you have to understand…
  • More pushups! Nate Trainbetter.org wellfitlife.me
  • Don't bash! Love on, man! Nate Trainbetter.org
  • That's actually a hot debate right now. I know it's popped up several times in the past but they're arguing whether or not the body needs any dietary carbohydrate at all because of it's ability to create sugar from fat. Interesting idea :) Paleo is, by far, the best nutritional plan I have ever used on my clients. It gets…
  • From my post: "I tend to think that our over consumption of corn PLAYS A HUGE ROLE in the boom in obesity, diabetes, heart disease and morbidity."
  • Some quick Tips 1. Give yourself 3 to four weeks on any nutrition change so that your body has time to adapt. at the end of that time, if you feel awful or aren't getting the results you want, switch...but not sooner. Many people feel really lethargic or flu like when they switch macronutrients...but AWESOME after a month.…
  • Nice post, dude! I tend to find best results with clients starting on Fish oil, magnesium, a multi and usually digestive enzymes....who cares about thermogenics, etc if your internal environment is what got u there in the first place :-) Bump Wellfitlife.me

  • HI! Buy a foam roller and use it on your calfs after every run. never ever ever skip your stretching routine. remember to stretch your feet as well. TAke it slow, take it steady, you'll get there. Look up the C25K program and start doing it. it's designed to give adequate rest periods and help you learn your form. good…
  • It's amaaaazing. Prepare to be wowed :) wellfitlife.me
  • You're welcome :)
  • I LOOOOOVE this stuff!!! It's great to add to bagged protein powder. Mix it with Paleo brownie recipe, in cereal, etc. Most people don't know peanuts are not a NUT so the Omega 6 extraction is really awesome for inflammation reduction. I did a quick video review of the Omega 6 vs. Omega 3 on wellfitlife.me CHEERS!!
  • this is the best suggestion on here. you're not just taking a couple seconds to do crunches, a stability ball forces you to use your core all day long. you can also try keeping a weight by your desk and doing a modified "saxton side bend" wellfitlife.me
  • agreed
  • Eating way too many calories from either source can make you fat...but we're not talking about getting fat and the process is NOT the same. We're talking about forcing your body to let go of and burn fat rather than stored glycogen (sugar) or protein (muscle) Burning more calories than you eat won't necessarily make you…
  • Hi :) I'm a clinical Exercise Specialist and conditions like arthritis are my specialty. I hope I can help somehow! YAY that your knee pain has gone!! Doctors are in the business of getting people out of pain. They are GREAT at what they do but don't necessarily have the mindset of "Maintain a lifestyle". He once told a 40…
  • Hi :) These are all my educated opinions so take them with a grain of salt :) First, since I assume you were just diagnosed with it by a medical doctor, understand how they come to the conclusion of "IBS". Irritable Bowel Syndrom. "Syndrome" means A group of symptoms that consistently occur together or a condition…
  • HEYO! You need a protein bar with a 2:1 protein: carb ratio or better. Most "protein" bars are 4:1, which means they have four grams of carb to every one gram of protein (an example is a cliff bar). 4:1 style are high on the glycemic index and cause Insulin spikes, which ultimately can force your body to gain fat faster…
  • What does your veggie, water and multivitAmin intake look like?
  • Hey guys :-) In my opinion, one of the best pieces of advice I have ever heard is " earn your carbs" So unlimited raw veggies, one serving of fruit from berries only until you are at goal. Good luck! Wellfitlife.me

  • Hey Dan :-) Most 40-something's and up complain about this and there is at least a partial answer. 1. Quads and hams are major stores for distorted testosterone and estrogen imbalances. supplemental DIM, ZINC, cutting out beer (hops is estrogenic) and alcohol and checking gut health has helped some of my clients…
  • Do 10 kettlebell swings, rest 10 seconds x 10 sets then Do 5 Burpees, rest 10 seconds x 10 sets. You'll be gassed and it hits every muscle in your body wellfitlife.me
  • Eat tons of protein. It has the same cals (4 per gram) as carbs and will keep you fuller way longer. It'll also fuel your muscles. Wellfitlife.me
  • Calories in vs. calories out isn't quite that simple. Your body needs nutrient dense food. You only really want to eat them all back if your goals is to be a high performance athlete. A 1000 to 2000 calorie burn per day means you would be doing 1.5 to 3 hours of continuous high intensity activity per day...how many days a…
