Chino Hills Fitness Expert Provides Holiday Health Tips


Chino Hills, CA (PRWEB) December 28, 2011

The average body takes a substantial hit during the holiday season. People are working out less, eating more and suffering escalated levels of stress. They have less time to sit down and eat healthy meals and they are consuming more alcohol, to boot. The holidays can still be fun without the excess, says Chino Hills Fitness Expert Sam Bakhtiar of the Fit Concepts franchise, and we can still get everything done without neglecting our health.

Dr. Sam Bakhtiar offers the following Chino Hills fitness tips for the holidays:

Don?t hide from your scale. Get it out and weigh yourself each week to see if your food intake needs a serious adjustment. Often times, people don?t realize how much they?re overeating until the scale tells them so.

Keep a food journal. You?re more likely to be accountable for what you?re consuming this way.

Squeeze in morning workouts, first thing. You can?t make excuses about being too busy if it?s over and done with. If you only have 30 minutes, make it count by interval training ? a few minutes of rigorous intensity, followed by a recovery period. Studies show this approach burns the most calories and offers the most health benefits.

Schedule time to relax, whether it?s 30 minutes of mindful yoga, a hot soak in the bathtub, or an hour of reading before bed, keeping your cortisol levels down will prevent unnecessary weight gain and maintain your sanity during this stressful time.

Enjoy family-oriented outdoor activities. Head to the mountains to do some skiing, sledding, ice skating or snow-shoeing. Make it a ritual to take family after-dinner walks to stay active and promote fitness in your household. Get out and enjoy a bike ride or jog through a scenic park.

Sign up for a January fitness boot camp and weight loss program to start the year off right.

?Our Chino Hills fitness programs are in such high demand because people are walking out of here 30 to 100 pounds lighter. They feel empowered, stronger, leaner, healthier and more energized,? Sam explains. ?That?s why you keep hearing so much about this ?fitness boot camp? trend and how ?addicting? it is. Who doesn?t want to feel mentally and physically incredible? Boot camps pack a powerful punch in just an hour of time and your fat burning machine is revved up even after you leave the gym.?

?December is a bit like the calm before the storm at any local fitness club,? Sam Bakhtiar explains. ?Then, like clockwork, come January, it?s a zoo of people who want to sign up for a weight loss boot camp and get back on track with their fitness.? Unfortunately, he says, there are only so many spots available, so the smartest people should sign up in December to ensure their position in one of the Chino Hills classes. Right now, the Fit Concepts Chino Hills Fitness center is offering a special holiday promotion of $ 100 off any program for people who text ?FITCONCEPTS? to 77453 by December 30th.

More Best Foods For Weight Loss Press Releases

Just as Al Gore Calls for Sustainable Living with his ?Inconvenient Truth,? The Book ?Soul-Full Eating? Provides Answers One Plate at a Time

Hollywood, FL (PRWEB) March 20, 2007

It?s easy to feel overwhelmed at the thought of responding to Al Gore?s call for action in his eloquent book and movie, “An Inconvenient Truth.” OK, we need to live in a more sustainable way in order to curb global warming. But what the heck does ?sustainability? mean anyway?

?What people like Al Gore are talking about is the ability of human beings to stay alive on planet earth, today and in the future,? notes “Soul-Full Eating” author Maureen Whitehouse. ?Human demands take their toll on the planet and affect what it can give back. Our excessive demands also change the earth, with effects like global warming. But we can begin to make better daily choices, ones that will have less damaging or even positive effects.?

With her new book “Soul-Full Eating,” Maureen Whitehouse explains how our consumption of food can become more conscious — allowing us to help heal the planet through the way we eat. ?Better choices resonate within each of us on what I call ?a Soul level,? and they help us feel more connected. Feeling more connected to others, we make better choices more often. It?s a positive cycle that builds.?

Whitehouse notes that the steps that make a difference can start out small. For instance, you could begin to buy foods as close to their natural form as possible, foods which require less labor and energy to produce and use less packaging. You might choose an apple over a candy bar. You might choose to drink water over a can of soda. You could choose to avoid genetically engineered foods. Etc.

A virtual encyclopedia on how to eat well, “Soul-Full Eating” (http://www.soulfulleating.com) covers everything from how to learn to eat Soul-fully, to how and why to eat organic locally-grown foods whenever possible, to why raw, enzyme-rich foods are essential to include in your diet, to plenty of nutrition basics, plus a primer on the best food plans available today. The author originally researched nutrition because of a desire to stay thin and healthy as a high fashion model, and she has never stopped. Her depth of knowledge and level of consciousness make the read insightful, fun, delicious, and helpful to the planet.

?I?d like to offer people hope,? said Whitehouse. ?To deliver the news that there are simple things you can do to affect global change for the better. Yes, responding to Al Gore?s call to action can start as simply as choosing different foods to put on your plate. And you can learn to make better choices more easily when you know how to eat in a way that resonates with your Soul.?

Pisane Pea Protein Provides Excellent Protein Source For Endurance And Strength

Denville, NJ (PRWEB) October 18, 2010

According to A&B Ingredients, market analyst reports show continued growth in sports nutrition products, are far outpacing overall food and drinks spending. In fact, Nutrition Business Journal the sports nutrition and weight-loss category is one of the fastest growing food and beverage categories, now standing at over $ 2.7 billion in sales for 2008. NMI?s 2009 Health & Wellness Trends Database reported 22 percent of consumers indicated they use sports nutrition. And, Mintel points out that the sports and energy drink segment gained 164 percent in sales during 2002 to 2007, due in large part to the launch of numerous line extensions in the sports drinks sub-segment.

?The nutritional products category is no longer geared toward athletes alone, but rather reaching out to a broader audience to include individuals who lead a more active lifestyle. The message is clear, consumers have clearly made their choice — living a healthy, active lifestyle is a priority,? said Gil Bakal, A&B Ingredients? Managing Director.

Bakal notes that a proper diet in exercise and physical performance is essential. ?We know that carbohydrates are a major energy source while proteins are critical nutrients for muscle protein synthesis. And overall protein needs are higher for people who exercise regularly,? he says.

To aid in the diet process, A&B Ingredients? pea protein — ?Pisane — is specifically designed for use as a single protein source for sport foods and is an extremely viable alternative protein source containing high levels of or branched chain amino acids ? leucine, isoleucine, valine ? arginine and lysine.

Pisane is a non-genetically modified (GMO) pea protein isolate that has excellent digestibility — 98% — and a well-balanced amino acid profile. Manufactured by Cosucra, Pisane contains 88% to 90% protein. It is both gluten free and exhibits low incidents of allergens.

?It is an excellent protein source for foods or supplements that meet the needs of individuals who partake in endurance and strength exercise,? says Bakal. He further notes ?Overall protein needs are greater for people who exercise regularly. The level of branched chain amino acids in Pisane pea protein is higher than other vegetable proteins and is comparable to those found in milk and egg protein. This is particular important in sport foods because they allow the maintenance of muscle tissue during intense exercise.?

Pisane?s arginine content is the highest of all commercially available proteins and contributes to enhanced immune responses. The lysine content of pea protein helps with the building of muscle protein and which is required for growth and bone development.

Another plus for Pisane, notes the manufacturer, is the ever-growing move toward all-natural, clean-label ingredients. Pea protein has proven to be one of the most tolerated and accepted protein sources without labeling or high allergy issues.

Other benefits of Pisane include:

New FRUIT DIET Provides Natural Weight Loss Cure

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) July 25, 2007

If five daily servings of fresh fruits and vegetables are suggested for good health, what would happen if a person accelerated that number to 15 or more daily servings? Clinical nutritionist and author of the new FRUIT DIET, (http://www.jayrobb.com) Jay Robb says, “It could radically change your life by lowering your body fat levels, turning back the hands of time by softening your skin, lowering cholesterol and blood pressure levels, eliminating joint pain, indigestion, backaches, headaches, and constipation.”

Robb says he created The FRUIT DIET 14-Day Rapid Weight-loss Program, not as just a “diet” to reduce the figure but also as a way of eating to gain better health.

Fruit is the Ideal Food for Human Health

People who eat an abundance of fruit live longer. It’s that simple. A study published in the British Medical Journal, showed that fresh fruit offers the best bet for a long life. The results of the study showed that frequent fruit eaters had a 32 percent lower risk of dying from cerebrovascular disease such as stroke, and a 24 percent lower risk of dying from coronary artery heart disease than those who ate fruit less than once a day. Even without the worry of heart disease the following reasons listed below may be reason enough to eat more fruit:


Fruit is an ideal source of the natural carbohydrate needed to keep the body energized.
Fruit is one of the richest sources of vitamins of any food.
Fruit is loaded with anti-oxidants that help prevent cancer and other diseases.
Fruit is easier to digest than grains. Fruit is basically pre-digested. Digesting ripe fruit hardly requires any digestive enzymes and is thus less taxing to the body.
Fruit is high in alkaline-forming minerals making it ideal for athletes.
Fruit contains an abundance of pure water to keep the body hydrated.
Fruit is easy to eat requiring almost no preparation.
Fruit is pleasing to the eye and naturally to the taste.
Fruit is rich in fiber, which is necessary for optimum digestion and elimination.

Jay Robb’s Fruit Flush 3-Day Detox (touted last year as “one of the hottest diets in America today in Oprah Magazine) was featured on national television (including EXTRA,) and radio shows as well as in countless magazines across the nation. Tens of thousands Americans successfully used his program to flush their bodies of toxins and lose weight. As a result of the massive popularity the Fruit Flush 3-Day Detox, Jay Robb created the new FRUIT DIET, as an advanced program that can be followed for a longer period of time and as a way of eating large amounts of fruit (and vegetables) for better health.

The FRUIT DIET?Is it Just Fruit?

The FRUIT DIET is a program that replaces most starches, sugars, and refined carbohydrate foods with fresh fruit. It provides an easy method for indulging in large quantities of fruit during the day to stay energized and to lose weight. From breakfast until dinner, sweet fruits, semi-sweet/acid fruits, or melons are eaten as desired. Eat as much as you wish, as often as you desire. There are four categories of fruits: sweet fruits, semi-sweet fruits, melons and dinner fruits. For each daytime meal, fruits may be selected from only one category and should not be combined. Dinner is a high-protein low-fat meal that is high in raw fruits and vegetables.
