Life and Health: What is man’s greatest value?

Enjoy life similar to the feeling of eating healthy food.

A whole apple contributes more net benefit to the body than it costs. Digestion is a workload for our bodies, but healthy food gives more than it takes. For example, apples contribute positively with vitamins, phytonutrients, and fiber…not to mention a useful 60 calories to power our brains.

Put power towards yourself

Participate and engage in activities that leverage the most value possible.

It works, as long as you know you want it. If words have no persuasive requirement, then simply living the health & fitness lifestyle will convince more. A big key to health is our relationship with others — each person is socially connected to us.

Don’t miss out later, how can you really feel your connection today?

Why Weight Training is Number #2 physical activity for All Healthy People

Procreation may be number #1. But aside from sex, Weight Training is hands down the Most Important Physical Activity for longstanding health.

To attain high performance as a person, it can reward you to produce happiness from feeling good physically.

You may need Weight Training

We attend school to seek intelligence. Novels, teachers, and friends engage our intellectual senses. With intelligence, we can succeed in this global economy. Our minds are powerful tools — the top layer of our complex humanity. But…

Peak performance requires physical fitness to support your needs and desires as a person. Which you would be happy when yours are important to me too.

Example CASE: Upper & Lower back pain in young woman

Figure 1: Thoracic (upper) spine displays excessive curvature. This produces upper and lower back pain for the client.

Reasons a person might desire Physical Fitness:

  • Chronic back pain. It leeches joy from the important things in life, like career and relationships.
  • Good posture is socially attractive, you should know about body language.
  • Your body could continue degrading for decades until mobility is completely gone.
  • If you want children, the weight of carrying a baby for 9 months could wreak havoc on your spine.

Let’s face it. Aches and pains are often chronic. Pain seems to stay around off and on, most noticeable when your body is stressed. But, this doesn’t have to be the case.

Weight Training is meant to sculpt our bodies for a purpose.

Because when body symmetry is poor or muscles weakened, there are real consequences in the quality of life. Fortunately, a smart Weight Training program can SAVE US from chronic back pain and make us feel great! And there’s more…

With a good trainer, we give meaning to your workouts. Each exercise is meant to fulfill that physical goal to bulletproof your entire body. It requires physical fitness to enjoy peak performance in an empowering and pain-free existence.

This particular exercise strengthens hips and glutes, which promotes optimal spinal function.

EXERCISE ROUTINE With PURPOSE:

  1. Utilize exercises to promote optimal hip alignment, which is the root cause of the issue.
  2. Become proficient at Single Legged movements and mobility drills to straighten out hip complex.
  3. Upper back, rear shoulders, and lower trapezious exercises to target symmetry in the body.
  4. Thoracic spine mobility combined with shoulder stability to keep upper body in healthy alignment.
  5. Targeted stretching for key muscle groups, which puts the body in balance.

Goodbye back-pain.

I know you will enjoy the number #1 physical activity much more when disrobing reveals a tight and symmetrical body. This is an accomplishment that can be earned through smart training and dedication.

You are now informed. If you hire the right Personal Trainer, you should feel the change in your lifestyle. And so will other people.

Losing Weight Eating Healthy: Right now is enough

You don’t have to look forward…always.

The feeling of this chair, writing a blog on a computer, what comes next… the moment after this?

That doesn’t matter right now, because I express wellness like a mural and share openly.

Fitness is in the Moment, and the Moment is Health.

But there’s a problem. “Food.”

The situation is appalling to the point of avoiding regular restaurant eating.

How they make you gain fat:

  • Manipulate taste while offering immediate reward at a tricky price.
  • Sugar, salt, and saturated fat and in exceedingly dangerous quantities

So there’s lots of danger in eating restaurant food 7 days a week.

Instead,

I present a better way.

Prepare your own food.

Example Meal Plan for Long Term Health and Leanness

1. Primary mealstuff: Complex carbohydrate with high protein and high fiber

  • examples: Quinoa, Brown Rice, Lentils, and Split Peas

Split Pea Nutrition

2. Plant based nutrition

  • Fruits (3 per day)
  • Vegetables (5 per day)
  • Nuts (2 per day)

3. Protein: necessary and often delicious

  • Wild Fish (the best protein because gives you tons of Omega-3 essential oils)
  • Protein powder (Whey or plant protein, good source of amino acids and immune boosters)
  • Minimal meat protein (puts more stress on the system, but highly athletic individuals may benefit more than average person)

4. Supplement: if you are deficient in a certain nutrient, can make a huge difference in your life

  • Most people need Omega-3 supplement.
  • Vitamin D is popular in the northern areas with less sun.
  • Probiotics aid digestion and immune system
  • Digestive Enzymes save the day in your gut.
  • Fiber mixture helps keep you regular.
  • Soy contains estrogrens that may or may not prevent male prostate enlargement or female breast cancer.
  • Biotin helps grow hair and nails.
  • HEMO-RAGE gets you completely jacked.

This moment brought to you by…

The smell of a gourmet restaurant in your own kitchen as home-made split pea soup simmers the senses. You may share, or you may not, but you’ve cooked at least 8 servings and can enjoy it for several days.

And if your coworkers label your lunch as “hippie food” or “paleo food” thats simply a reference to its nutritional health.

Ellison Fitness is getting ripped with little effort thanks to this.

High Blood Pressure? Try Low-Carb Diet

Research proves Low-Carb diet reduces Blood Pressure levels

A study published in the 2010 Archives of Internal Medicine has good news for you. In a group of obese patients, the low-carb diet group lost 9.5% of their starting body weight, reduced blood pressure, and lowered bad cholesterol levels.

So if you want to take control of your health and lose weight at the same time, try a low carb diet.

Dayum, you make low carbs look GOOOOD

Can you handle less than 20 grams of carbs per day?

It makes you wonder, what are you actually allowed to eat…

  • Unlimited leafy green vegetables
  • Lean meat, salmon, and whey protein
  • Nuts, seeds, olives and oils (especially Omega-3)

Low carb isn’t easy, but trust me, it works! If you want fast results, give the low-carb diet a try.

Fat Loss Mindset

Can you delay short term pleasure in order to gain long term satisfaction?

The hardest part of the day for me is night time. Since I work a long day, I often get home around 10 PM and am ready to snack and relax. Unless I need to prepare food for the next day, I typically am not in the mood to cook a meal. I just want some satisfaction.

Have healthy snacks readily available

I open my refrigerator and see a gallon container of Raw Kefir (freshly home-fermented in within the last few days), a gallon container of fermented Korean Kim Chi, and a big pot of healthy food that I cook a couple times a week. Then there’s my fruits, vegetables, liquid fish oil supplements, raw pickles, sauerkraut, applesauce, almond butter, etc.

Tonight, I drank my Raw Kefir for the protein and nutrients, had a sip of my fish oil (which is good since my raw Kefir contains plenty of fat-breakdown Lipase enzymes), and then some Kim Chi to boost my immune system. Since these foods are all low-calorie, low glycemic index, and heavily nutrient dense, I conveniently burn fat with a healthy metabolism.

Let’s just say, if I had ice cream in my freezer…I’d be screwed.

Take responsibility for your food

If you think your food is out of your hands, then I have to feel a little sorry. Our hunter-gatherer ancestors took responsibility for finding their food day in and day out. They created the division of labor, with the strong as hunters and the socially savvy as gatherers.

We do the same in modern society, except now large corporations such as McDonalds are your hunters, and the meat quality is putrid compared to our ancestors time.

Plan your meals

As soon as you finish your meal, you need to have a plan of what you’re eating for your next meal.

The best way to plan meals is you prepare your own food. A simple recipe I have created involves a whole grain or legume with a variety of vegetables, herbs, spices, and coconut oil. This food is full of fiber, nutrients, energy, and burns a ridiculous amount of fat.

Example recipe:

4 cups Lentils (slow carbs, fiber, protein, vitamins, minerals)

Kale (green), Onions (yellow), Red Peppers (red), Cauliflower (white), Carrots (orange) — see the theme? Diversity in nutrients.

Coconut oil (healthy Medium Chain Triglycerides for energy, metabolism, and oil for flavor)

Herbs, spices (Mrs. Dash is easy, awesome and sodium free)

Get the idea? You can make enough for six+ different meals, which ensures you have a healthy lunch and snack for the next three days.

You have to eat to lose weight

Food is your friend.

You just need to eat the right stuff. And in our urban jungle, that takes constant planning.
