Focus on Fitness

Focus is an amazing tool in our quest for our own Fitness.

Can you block out everything when you workout and push as hard as you can? Or, do you answer the phone or let your mind wander about whatever might be going on in your life at the time?

The ability to focus on the task at hand is MONUMENTAL in your ability to achieve your Fitness goals.

Shut off your cellphone, home phone, ect., just for the time you have alloted to workout. Think about nothing else but moving your Fitness forward!

How about your Nutritional Focus? Do you plan your meals or just eat on the fly? I don’t have to tell you which is more effective. The time to have laser focus on your nutrition is late in the day. That is when the “Carb Monster” can sneak into your house and jump on your back! Believe me I know! There is nothing worse than an entire day of super clean eating and then blowing it in 5 minutes right before bed time!

Stay on task and push your fitness forward! When you concentrate on the task at hand and blend your workouts and nutrition into a focused Tsunami of forward progress you will be AMAZED at how quickly you reach your goals.

Everyone has a choice…what are you going to do today?

Perfect Body Diet

I recently picked up a book entitle Women’s Health Perfect Body Diet: The Ultimate Weight Loss and Workout Plan to Drop Stubborn Pounds and Get Fit for Life (Hardcover).

Blue Berry

I must have at least 4 dozen books on Fitness, Health and Exercise/Workout related books. So I have seen or read a lot of fitness/health related books. Some books have more substances than others. Some are too dry for my taste and read like a medical/college text books, while others are full of fluff. In any case, I am always reading, researching and learning on how to provide the best fitness and wellness service to my clients.

Women's Health Perfect Body DietThis book is by far one of the best book I have encounter in a long time, especially for my female clients. The book is divided in 3 sections. Each section is very well written and researched.

I am especially impressed with the section on Workout/Exercise Section entitles -Perfect Movement. I highly recommend this book to anyone of my clients to pick up and use as a guide and resource book for their pursuit of wellness. I was able to pick mine up at Big Lots in Geneva, NY last week for $5. One of the best $5 I have ever spent.

I hope to blog more about this book in the next couple of weeks.
