10 Reasons Women Need to Lift Weights
By Whitney Provost
Many women believe that the only way to lose weight is to do cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise. So they jog or take aerobics classes five times a week. Eventually, though, they notice that while their bodies are a little smaller, there are still a lot of flabby and jiggly bits. Sound familiar? Aerobic exercise is important for good health, but it's only half of the equation. Keep reading for the other half.

Test Your Labor IQ!
By Daniel V. Donatelli
September 7 is Labor Day, a day when we in America celebrate what makes this country great: not working on the first Monday in September. In a way, Labor Day marks the end of summer, the beginning of the school year, and the solemn day when I must pack away my sexy white pants with the embarrassing mustard-and-blood stain. We all know that working hard is hard work, but how hard? Find out by matching the occupation with the number of calories burned per hour.

Firefighter		204 calories
Farmer		122 calories
Actor		816 calories
Desk Job		544 calories

Eat Your Way to Great Abs
By Ben Kallen

A few weeks ago, we gave you tips on building great-looking abs in "5 Ways to Speed Up Your Six-Pack." Now we're going to focus on the other half of the equation: your diet. When it comes to creating incredible abs, even the most effective workout programs can only bring you so far. That's because you can't get a flat, hard midsection without losing body fat. Here's how to eat your way to great abs.

Does Exercise Matter?
By Steve Edwards

I'm sure many of you have seen the recent cover of TIME magazine stating that exercise doesn't matter for weight loss. We at Beachbody® are a little incredulous at this premise. After all, we have reports from thousands of individuals who've used exercise to dramatically change their bodies. Could all of those transformations have happened from dietary change alone? Let's take a look at how we lose weight.

Power 90®
Great for all fitness levels! Try Tony Horton's 90-day in-home boot camp for maximum fat-burning results in as little as 30 minutes a day. Plus FREE gifts!

ChaLEAN Extreme®
Want to burn up to 60% of your body fat? With Chalene's new 3-phase circuit training system, you'll burn fat even while you sleep—because Muscle Burns Fat®! Plus get 3 FREE gifts to keep worth $100.00!

B-LINES® Standard Kit
Burn fat and tone lean muscle faster with Beachbody's resistance bands instead of dumbbells. Order the complete set today and get 1 band FREE!

Consult your physician before beginning any exercise program.
B-LINES Resistance Bands contain natural rubber latex, which may cause allergic reactions.

Test Your Food Fight IQ!
By DeLane McDuffie
As an 8-year-old kid, I tried to incite a food fight in school. My only setback was that I tried to start one on a Friday, the day when we were served "fun" food, like pizza and hot dogs. No one wanted to throw that food around. True, we all know about food fights in school, but how many of us know about actual large-scale food fights—real skirmishes, wars, and battles involving food, fists, and, sometimes, firearms. Match the conflict with its unique food or characteristic.

California Water Wars		Iceland vs. Great Britain
Banana Massacre		Bovine
The Grattan Massacre		Chinatown
The Cod Wars		Breadfruit
Mutiny on the Bounty		Chiquita

FW: $64,000 Question

FINALLY...THE $64,000 QUESTION WAS ASKED...

YESTERDAY ON "ABC-TV" (BETTER KNOWN AS THE ALL BARRACK CHANNEL) DURING THE "NETWORK SPECIAL ON HEALTH CARE" OBAMA WAS ASKED:

"MR. PRESIDENT WILL YOU AND YOUR FAMILY GIVE UP YOUR CURRENT HEALTH CARE PROGRAM AND JOIN THE NEW 'UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE PROGRAM' THAT THE REST OF US WILL BE ON ????"..... (BET YOU ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWER)...

THERE WAS A STONEY SILENCE AS OBAMA IGNORED THE QUESTION AND CHOSE NOT TO ANSWER IT !!!...

IN ADDITION, A NUMBER OF SENATORS WERE ASKED THE SAME QUESTION AND THERE RESPONSE WAS..."WE WILL THINK ABOUT IT."

AND THEY DID. IT WAS ANNOUNCED TODAY ON THE NEWS THAT THE "KENNEDY HEALTH CARE BILL" WAS WRITTEN INTO THE NEW HEALTH CARE REFORM INITIATIVE ENSURING THAT CONGRESS WILL BE 100% EXEMPT !

SO, THIS GREAT NEW HEALTH CARE PLAN THAT IS GOOD FOR YOU AND I... IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR OBAMA, HIS FAMILY OR CONGRESS...?? WE (THE AMERICAN PUBLIC) NEED TO STOP THIS PROPOSED DEBACLE ASAP !!!!.... THIS IS TOTALLY WRONG !!!!!

PERSONALLY, I CAN ONLY ACCEPT A UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE OVERHAUL THAT EXTENDS TO EVERYONE... NOT JUST US LOWLY CITIZENS... WHILE THE WASHINGTON "ELITE" KEEP RIGHT ON WITH THEIR GOLD-PLATED HEALTH CARE COVERAGE'S.

IF YOU AGREE PLEASE PASS THIS ON .....IF NOT PLAN TO SUFFER WITH THE OBAMA HEALTH CARE PLAN ....FOR FREE.... WHILE OUR SELF-SERVING POLITICIANS MAKE SURE THAT THEY TAKE CARE OF THEIR BUTTS AT OUR EXPENSE.

By Steve Edwards

10 Tricks for Losing Those Last 10 Pounds
By Whitney Provost
At the start of a new fitness program, you clean up your diet and hit the workouts, and the weight seems to fall off. But when you get down to the last 5, 10, or 15 pounds you want to lose, the scale may suddenly refuse to budge.

What Motivates Me
By Debbie Siebers, creator of Slim in 6
Every morning, the first thing I do is repeat everything I'm grateful for. It sets the tone for the day to be positive. I feel strongly about writing and reciting at least five positive affirmations during the day to reprogram my mind and manifest what I want in my life. It is easy to slip into negative thinking. When a negative thought pops up, I try my best to counter it with a positive and uplifting thought. Read on for more of my motivational tips!

Test Your Muscle IQ!
By Monica Gomez
Muscle Confusion™, Muscle Burns Fat®, "the more lean muscle you have, the more fat you burn," lean muscle, ripped muscle, etc.—muscle is a word you come across often here at Beachbody®. We know that the lean and ripped varieties are highly coveted. But what do you know about this body tissue consisting of long cells that contract when stimulated and produce motion?

True or False?

1. The second largest muscle in the human body is the gluteus maximus.
2. Your heart muscle is likely to shrink if it's weak and can't squeeze as hard.
3. Disuse atrophy cannot be reversed.
4. Strabismus is an eye muscle condition in which one or both eyes may turn in, out, up, or down.
5. Chewing is performed by the coordinated function of 15 muscles.

Diet and Exercise
Tina V. (username: CoachTinaV) was already halfway there. She was exercising, but she wasn't seeing results. From the StairMaster® to Tae Bo® to aerobics classes to simple walks around the block, nothing could bring her back to her pre-pregnancy weight. Then she found Turbo Jam®, and with it, the Turbo Slim® meal plan, which highlighted a neglected component of her health goals—healthy nutrition. Now that she has a dynamic workout and a useful eating plan, Tina has lost 32 pounds and 4 inches from her waist. Meet this $1,000 winner!
Juice vs. Juicing vs. Fruit
By Steve Edwards
Last time we discussed why Jamba Juice® isn't always the healthy beverage chain it's cracked up to be. We took a brief look at why something that is "100 percent fruit" might not be healthy. Today we'll look at store-bought juice, homemade juice, and whole fruit. What is the difference between blending and juicing your fruits and veggies? And what can eating whole fruit do for weight control? Find out in this next installment of Nutrition 911: Juice, Juicing, and Fruit – The Differences.

Learn about Body Mass Index (BMI)

thebooksofmatthew@gmail.com (Coach Mattman) — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 16:54:00 +0000

WITH COACH MATTMAN CLICK HERE

What is the Body Mass Index?
The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a calculation of body composition based on the relationship of weight and height for adults over the age of 20. The relation between body fat and BMI differs with age and gender. For example, women are more likely to have a higher percentage of body fat than men for the same BMI. On average, older people may have more body fat than younger adults with the same BMI.

Does BMI measure body fat?
No. It's a general number that you will need to interpret. If you know you're out of shape, knowing your BMI is helpful for you to determine how much weight you should lose. For fit people, it doesn't indicate a muscle-to-fat ratio and could be misleading. For example, most NFL players and bodybuilders would be considered obese according to their BMI ratings, even though they may be very fit with low body fat.

Is BMI a diagnostic tool?
Not really, since it's the most basic of scales. But it can certainly give you an indication that you should lose some weight.

How can I determine my BMI?
It's a very simple. Just use the calculator below—enter your height and weight and voila!

Once I calculate my BMI, what should I do with this information?
Nothing. It's simply a gauge of where you are. Keep working out and re-test your BMI periodically to see how it's improving.

#2 Pay Attention (Part 1)

thebooksofmatthew@gmail.com (Coach Mattman) — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 18:29:00 +0000

What you eat has a direct effect on everything from the way your cody works to your mood to the amount of fat your body burns or stores. For long-term weight management (and health), we suggest that you pay attention to every thing you eat and use the eyeball method* of controlling portion size. Balancing the type of foods you’re eating and always making sure you’re getting enough protein** are also important.

We recommend using Michi’s Ladder to guide your food choices throughout the day. The closer you are to the top, the better results you will get. It’s a direct relationship that cannot be overemphasized. No matter how much you work out, if you don’t make smarter food choices, you will not see that layer of padding around your waist or thighs go away. ON the other hand, if you give yourself three solid weeks of eating at the top of Michi’s Ladder, the results will startle you.

Every meal should be conservative in portion size and have a fairly even ratio of calories from carbs, proteins, and fats. Shoot for 40% of your calories to come from carbs, 30% from protein, and 30% from fat.

Beachbody Rules for Choosing Foods

Use fresh vegetables to replace processed foods and you will lose weight.
Skinless white meat is generally a better choice than red meat.
Egg whites have less fat than whole eggs.
When looking at a plate of food you suspect is high in fat (like pizza) or carbohydrates (like pasta), eat half the helping you would normally eat. Do not overeat.
Choose low-density, high-fiber foods whenever possible.

*The “eyeball method” means knowing how much you should eat by looking at it and having a basic tool for knowing how much is enough.

**According to the book The Zone by Dr. Barry Sears, you need 75 to 120 grams of protein a day, depending on your lean muscle mass and lifestyle.

Step 1 to transform your body

thebooksofmatthew@gmail.com (Coach Mattman) — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 12:54:00 +0000

Control- your portions

In general, eat half of what the chef serves you in a restaurant. An adequate portion for a meal is 3 ounces of protein ( like chicken, tuna, or lean ground beef ), which is about the size of your palm. Don't eat until you are full; eat until you're not hungry. Same goes for salad dressing. On a large salad, limit it to just enough to taste. One or two tablespoons should do the trick.

Control Your Calorie Intake and Portion Size

This is what we call the "Classic Calorie Equation." Your daily exercise routine will increase the amount of calories you burn each day. If you also make sure that you eat fewer calories than you burn, poof!-- you burn excess stored fat. It's a simple, scientifically proven fact that never fails, And here's how to do it:

Calories in:

First, regulate how many calories you consume. We recommend that if "trimming fat" is your goal, 1200 to 1500 per day is as low as you want to go. Any lower and your body will think it's starving and reset your metabolism. targeting a number that is 500 calories per day less than you burn will result in losing a pound per week. We recommend staring with 1200 to 2000 calories per day, depending on your goal, which will steer you away from large portions. Add calories only when you feel you need additional energy. after all, food is fuel.

Calories out:

Second, approximate how many calories your body uses each day using the following grid, which is calculated based on you body weight, your lifestyle, and the assumption that you will burn 300 calorie in every rigorous 30- minute workout.

Now that you have an estimate of how many calories your body needs, you just need to make sure that you consume less that, and your body will be forced to access its stored fat to make up the difference. That's how you lose fat: Force your body to use stored energy by controlling the “energy” (aka calories) you put in.
Once you accumulate a 3500-calorie deficit, you've burned off 1 pound of fat!
By controlling the calorie deficit, you can control your weight loss:

This has been proven repeatedly in clinical trials, in Hollywood, and by the general public. The Daily Deficit works. If you want to hit a very specific weight loss goal, this is how you can do it, to the pound, to the day. And we're not talking water weight-- we're talking about burning off significant stored fat. The trick is to be disciplined about calorie intake.

6 Steps to transform your body

thebooksofmatthew@gmail.com (Coach Mattman) — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 17:35:00 +0000

Let's begin

The actual goal of most fitness and slimming programs is to increase the ratio of lean muscle to stored fat. That means trimming a lot of fat and building muscle for a toned look. It does not neccessarily mean "losing weight."

Muscle weighs a lot more than fat, so as your ratio of lean mass to fat changes, you shrink at the same weight.

Beware of diets that promise rapid weight loss, as these tend to promote dehydration techniques that can be dangerous.

Sure, you can wring a lot of water out of your system to lose weight, but once you are again properly hydrated you'll gain most of the weight back.

Also, when you drastrically reduce caloriees you alter your body's metabolism so it more readily stores exess calories as fat , which is the opposite of what you're trying to do.

The Six Steps

Control - (your portions) Don't eat until you are full; eat until you're not hungry.
Pay Attention - (to everything you eat.) Fresh veggies, lean meats, and foods lower in fat and higher in fiber are the basis of our nutrition guide.
Consistent - (5x-a-day eating schedule.) Important! Stick to the schedule so you do not get hungry and overeat, and so your body has enough fule to rebuild after exercise.
Hydrate and Cleanse - (your body by drinkin water.) Your body is around 70% water. Drink at least 2 liters (8 glasses) of water per day.
Fortify - (your diet with a multivitamin.) An exceptional multivitamin ensures that you get all the nutrients you need when cutting calories.
Refrain - (from eating at the wrong times.) When you work out and especially when you sleep, you want your body to be in "fat-burning-mode."

We will elaborate on these steps in the following posts. Be sure to stay connected with us.

Here is a Tip: Since the goal is overall body transformation, let's do it in a reasonable amount of time: 90 days, 45 days, 30 days - whatever sutis your status today. To get healthy results, eat and take supplements to support and exercise routine. The trick is to eat the right food at the right time , and your body will burn off fat everyday while you get healthier overall.

See you tomorrow!

Charline Bucher Said it so Well...

thebooksofmatthew@gmail.com (Coach Mattman) — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 13:09:00 +0000

What this is NOT..

Sales Pitch, get rich quick scheme, a pyramid thing. We're not going to make you buy anything, sell anything. matter of fact, if you try and SELL this, it won't work.

This has to come from the heart. I have been approached by other network marketing companies.. And quite frankly, although I liked the concept of it, I couldn't get past the "ick" factor and the fact I had to sell something of very little value that was overpriced .. or worse, sell a "service" that I was not passionate about.

What it IS..

Opportunity to share a passion for health and fitness and a way to earn income just for helping others.

We aren't looking to just add "distributors". We want a team of people who are willing to live a healthy lifestyle and who want to help others do the same. It's that simple.

Most people are looking for a way to get fit ,lose weight or be healthier... It's a BILLION dollar industry, yet we still have an Obesity Epidemic.

We have an alarming trend of rising cases of Diabetes, especially among children. What's wrong? Why is that?

And what's the other thing most people are looking for? A way to make more $$. Some people work overtime, some people get part time jobs.. Others work 2 full time jobs just trying to make ends meet. yet so many people never really realize their dreams. What are your dreams? For you? For your family? Have you really ever thought about that? Really sat down and thought IF you could, what would you want for you and your family. Have you figured out a way to get there?

Are you like me and thought maybe one day I'll win the lottery or a rich relative I don't know will die and leave me everything?

I made very good money as a manager at Lockheed. Yet, we were over $50K in debt (not including house and cars). I call it the "One Paycheck Away From Disaster" state. It's not a very pleasant place to live. And I had actually lived in the absolute BROKE state. (you can read my profile for the full scoop)

Maybe it's not money. maybe it's more time you want.. More time with your family.. More time to pursue the things you love to do.

I know for me, I never knew what I loved to do because I never had time to figure it out. Literally.. People would ask me what I like to do and I didn't know! I worked full time job (actually 50+ hours) and took kids to and from activities..

I didn't have time for me. I wasn't taking care of me. I was too tired! I tried going to the gym, but found it was hard to stay consistent because of my job and my kids.

TRAINERS- GYM OWNERS

For those of you who are already fitness minded, what if there was a way to not only help your current clients that you train, but also reach and help potentially thousands of people all over the United States....and soon, around the world?

In other words.. What if there was a company you were rewarded for being healthy and fit?

What if there was a company that generated paying customers and partners and placed them into your business and you could do it all online, on your own time?

You can only work so many hours in a given day - and that is all you can earn. As a Team Beachbody Coach, you get to leverage time and earn income from tens, hundreds, and even thousands of Coaches and their efforts.

What if a you as a personal trainer gets hurt or seriously sick? If it's your full time job, you could be out of business until they get back on their feet.

If you spend the time to properly build your Team Beachbody business, and if you were to suddenly get sick or hurt, you will still get a check if you stay active and qualified, and you could even see your business grow during this same time frame!

Most trainers typically want more clients and to grow their business and would like to differentiate themselves from their competition... (By adding the FREE Team Beachbody Game and The Club to their marketing they WILL differentiate themselves from the competition..

You already have a clientele of fitness oriented people who just might be interested in what Team Beachbody has to offer.

We have SEVERAL fitness professionals who have jumped on board because they LOVE the benefits of the Club and recommend that their clients join it. It makes the job easier for the trainer and the client.

Wouldn't you like to see more of your current clients working out more often We have the FREE Team Beachbody Game - and nobody else does!

SO... what this is NOT is just as important as what this IS. And what this IS is the perfect harmony between helping people and getting rewarded for it.

Hey there friends (subscribers)

Here is some real helpful advice from Tony Horton and P90x.

Remember to Bring It! Everyday and to keep pushing play!

Enjoy
Matt Thompson
http://www.freeworkoutcoach.com/

We have become the United States of Quick Fixes.
Why are we so addicted to shortcuts, tricks, and magic potions? Far too many people in this country live in some kind of wannabe fantasyland. We're trying to keep up with the Joneses without working as hard as they do. This bigger, badder, and faster world doesn't give us an opportunity to stop and look at REAL and AUTHENTIC ways to achieve greatness.

How many people have you talked to about Power 90® who, when they find out they have to exercise and eat right say, "Forget it!" There are millions of people in this country who have absolutely no clue that you have to work hard, take risks, and be willing to fail over and over again to earn what's worth having. Work hard, take risks, and failure . . . "Forget it!"

This is a very sad commentary that reveals what we've become in this country. We have the best of the best in the U.S. of A., but we hold the record for most fat people. Why do we reach for drugs, alcohol, sex, food, lies, blame, anger, hate, guilt, and self-pity far more often than power, courage, discipline, forgiveness, wisdom, and self-reliance? We've become a bunch of cry babies, filled with excuses, blaming everyone else for our problems!

The freedoms and conveniences we now enjoy were fought for by men and women who didn't think twice when it came to hard work, taking risks, and failing over and over again. This generation's selfish, lethargic, woe-is-me mentality is creating a country filled with folks who live in a constant state of quiet desperation. Our ancestors worked very hard to create a world with less stress and strife. So why are we more stressed out than ever?

The pendulum has swung way too far in the wrong direction. It's time to stop all the bitching and moaning and wanting and wishing and hoping and dreaming. We must start to live in the real world and begin to take some responsibility for what goes on in our lives. It's time to start exploring and searching and devoting and sharing and growing and working for what you want in this world.

It's really a matter of right and wrong. We know the difference between the two but still fail to behave in ways that allow us to be great human beings.

Right-
Work out
Eat healthy
Fail and try again
Persevere Forgive yourself
Listen Be kind Find out what you love

Wrong-
Don't work out
Eat junkFail and quitBlow it off
Blame othersComplainBe right (all the time)
Ignore your greatness

This is a short list, but I think you get the point.

The list (Wrong), will lead you down the road of endless short-lived pleasures that result in lifelong pain, fear, and sadness.

The list (Right), (which can be hard at first) will open you up to a world filled with happiness, joy, and fulfillment.

You might want to ask yourself how history will see you after you're gone. If you don't like the answer today, then it might be time to do the right thing.

Peace,
Tony Horton
