If you suffer from any type of back, neck or sciatic pain, then you need to go grab a copy of my good friend, Jesse
Cannone’s new book, “The 7-Day Back Pain Cure” ASAP…

Right now he is actually giving it away… you can also buy it on amazon, but if you grab one of the free copies from his website he is going to donate $2 to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital or Habitat for Humanity – you even get to choose the charity!

Now, I’ve known Jesse for 12 Years and he has personally helped me overcome my battle with lower back pain.  He is now known as the “back pain relief guy” because he’s helped so many people to finally get rid of their pain… and over the years, I personally have learned a lot from him…

He is a mentor, friend, and the founder of Achieve Fitness.  I’m very proud of him for getting his first published
paperback book finally done.  He’s been working on it for years.  That’s why I think he’s half nuts for giving the
first 1000 copies away for free.

But really, his new book is incredible… in it he does what no one else in the medical community does, and that
is put together all of the pieces… see, most people when they have back pain usually get treatments that only mask
the pain… and even then, the treatments only address the physical symptoms…

In this book he shows you:

- Why traditional treatments always FAIL to deliver lasting relief

- The 7 mistakes that most people make that keep them in pain

- How to identify the real, underlying causes of your pain

- Which treatments work, which ones don’t and how to know which is right for you

So if you have ever suffered from back pain, or are currently dealing with it, I highly recommend you grab a copy of his book now – and you can’t beat the price (FREE)…

But don’t wait or “think about it” as he has only 1000 copies available to give away and there are literally millions of
people with back pain who are likely to hear about this.

And please be sure to tell him I sent you.

I recently came across this article that I thought would be eye opening to people who are trying their best to pursue a healthier lifestyle. As a health professional, I am always conscious of making sound decisions when it comes to nutrition and am committed to helping my clients do the same. Part of that is raising our clients’ awareness level of the trends in public health and the support systems that exist around it.
Unfortunately, in the case of this article, it seems that one
health professional’s mission to raise awareness of dangerous
foods comes to an abrupt end in the name of preserving business.
It’s sad that this negative publicity exists, but I think you’ll
find the doctor’s position here is quite inspirational. Click on the link below to read more about it.

Enjoy!

Top 4 Benefits of Partner Training

Fitness is such an amazing activity and lifestyle choice. Aside from it being undeniably good for you, it is also fun and often down right exciting. There are just so many kinds of fitness activities and places to do them, that it is hard to believe anyone could tire of personal training.

Most people tend to fly solo when it comes to getting in shape. They lift weights, go running, swimming or do aerobics. Sure, they may be in a gym full of people, but the swimming, treadmill, weights and cadio classes are essential individuals training at the same time. Even when you have a trainer, you are still alone in your efforts of doing the fitness routine.

But there is another way to train, one that may be more fun and challenging. It is partner training, and today I would like to tell you about the four top benefits of this type of training.

1-Motivation

One of the biggest problems with getting into and staying in shape is actually getting up and doing it. It is a fact that millions of gym memberships are bought and never or only rarely used. Personal trainers help with motivation, because you have someone to account to. But if you also had a fitness buddy, a training partner, chances are you would be more motivated.

Motivation is what makes us decide to do something, like getting into shape, changing our eating habits, going to the gym. And while many of us do follow-through, there is nothing like having an actual fitness partner to motivate you to get together and work out. You’ll want to, you’ll look forward to it!

2-Competition

Training together with a partner also provides a little competitive edge to each workout. Because there is someone by your side, doing what you are doing, you get that little extra “push” and encouragement needed to give it everything you’ve got.

And when you’re tired and either don’t feel like going to the gym or are there but feel like giving up, that partner next to you will give you the reason to push and do. You know, no matter what you might say in public, that you will never lose to Jane or Bill. You would sooner show up sick then feel like you let the partnership down. And there’s no way you’d allow Becky to do one more push-up than you!

3-Accountability

Training with a partner also makes you more accountable—to yourself, to the trainer, to your friend. Just by being committed with you, your partner will help you remain on track by being not only accountable to you but also to them. They are also sacrificing time, money and effort… and are counting on you to be there for them.

Between workouts is when having a partner who is a friend really pays off! It’s like Big Brother or Big Sister is watching you all the time. They will make sure you are eating right, sleeping right, getting ready for the gym on time. They, like you, want a partner to watch over them and help them achieve their fitness goals!

4-Costs

One of the biggest barriers to getting into shape and committing to a workout or gym is financial. It costs money to do all the things necessary to get and stay fit and healthy. Well, having a fitness partner will help alleviate some of those costs by contributing to your trainer fees. While it may cost more money per hour for two people to have a trainer, the cost per person is less than paying as an individual.

So what are you waiting for? Go and grab your best friend, life partner or co-worker and become fitness partners! And with our new promotion… there’s no reason not to!

With our new promotion, we’re offering 3 FREE partner training sessions with the purchase of a package of 18 sessions or more. That’s right, in addition to your free trial session to see if your trainer is a good match for you and your partner, we’ll also give you 2 additional training sessions!

Also, if you missed it, don’t forget that our “Cash for Chunkers” promotion expires on August 31st. Don’t miss your chance to get $200 OFF any personal training package of 12 sessions or more.

Nutrition Made Simple

In today’s health conscious world, there’s a lot of information out there on nutrition and healthy eating. With all the fad diets and companies releasing an abundance of“weight loss” products, it’s difficult to know where to turn for sound, credible advice on eating for weight loss. It becomes overwhelming when the information you get seems to change constantly, and you can’t go a day without hearing about a new extreme weight loss diet.

So let’s keep it simple. I’ve worked for several years with people who have struggled to lose weight. Almost all of them have tried fad diets in the past with minimal success. Rather than bore you to death with the science behind why these diets don’t work, let’s talk about what will work and what has proven to be effective for my clients. Here are some tips that ANYBODY can follow to put yourself on a faster, healthier track to achieving your weight loss goals. No nonsense, no lengthy scientific explanations, just functional tips that you can use as your guideline to jump start your weight loss efforts.

You must expend more energy than you take in. I don’t care if you’re eating broccoli and carrots all day, if you’re consuming more calories than you expend, you will absolutely, positively NEVER lose weight.

Eat breakfast every day. This is the only way to jump start your metabolism each day. If you’re not giving your body a consistent enough energy source, it will hold on to everything you put in it. Unfortunately for us, this storage always comes in the form of body fat!

Don’t think low-carb, think right carbs! Carbohydrates themselves are not the enemy. In fact, they are our main source of energy, especially when supporting an exercise program. However, our carbohydrate intake should come from fruits, vegetables and healthy whole grains. The main carbohydrate source from these foods is fiber, which promotes healthy digestion and is critical to maintaining the efficiency of our metabolism.  The two carbohydrate sources that will absolutely destroy your weight loss efforts are sugar and enriched flour. These are the real culprits. Trust me, America didn’t become obese by eating too many apples!

Get your fats from 3 sources only! Fats are also not the enemy, as long as we chose them wisely. The primary dietary sources of essential fats are seafood, flax oil/seeds, and mixed nuts. These essential fats are touted for their heart health properties, aiding in recovery, and reducing the risk of several serious diseases as well. Not only should you not avoid these foods, you should seek them out as part of your weight loss plan. In fact, essential fats should make up about 30% of your overall intake.

3 words for success – Whole, Natural Foods. This is one to live by!  Our bodies are simply not designed to digest processed foods. You work your body hard enough as it is, don’t make it work harder just to digest the junk you may put in it. A good general rule here is that if you don’t recognize the food’s ingredients, it’s not natural. All of the essential nutrients your body needs to sustain health and support weight loss are contained within fruits, vegetables and lean protein sources.

Keep a food journal. I can’t emphasize this one enough. Tracking your nutritional intake is a critical piece to your success. Sometimes we don’t even realize how much we take in every day until we’ve written it down. Once you’ve seen it on paper, it becomes real and you will be way less likely to cheat if you have to write it down and admit it to yourself!

These are some pretty basic concepts, but if you stick to them as your guideline for healthy nutrition, you’ll be in a better position to achieve YOUR weight loss goals!!
