10 Excuses Not to Be Healthy
In today’s post I want to talk a little bit about excuses that our minds tells us just so that we avoid changes in life. I’m sure many of you have noticed that when you want to try to do something hard, your mind tries to talk your out of it. Thoughts of changes can automatically turn on the defense mode. One of the biggest reasons people do not like change is fear. People are afraid that an unknown future is going to be worse than the current reality. In many cases, the reality is not the best place to be and a change can make life easier and less stressful.
How to Avoid Gaining Weight During a Vacation or a Holiday
I recently went on a vacation to Florida. Since I was in the middle of doing a cleanse and working out very hard (P90X), the first thought that went through my mind was “How am I going to keep this up and not gain a lot of weight while on a vacation?” In the past, I would end up gaining up to 5lbs by relaxing my work out routine and eating out with the family or munching on unhealthy snacks like cookies. This time my goal was to not gain any additional weight but in a worst scenario I was ok with gaining just one or two pounds. read more
Should Women Lift Weights – Find Out How Weight Training Can Help You Lose Pounds.
In the past I have spoken to many women who do not lift weights during their work outs. A lot of them are not scared of lifting the weight itself, but of what it may do to their bodies. Unless you are getting ready for a woman’s bodybuilding competition, you probably do not want to look like one of those ladies. What most women want are lean muscles throughout the body. Fitness Magazine states, “Despite the universally acknowledged health benefits of resistance training (and there are scores, from reducing blood pressure to warding off arthritis and strengthening bones, muscle, and connective tissue), of the 12.7 million women read more
What is Yoga All About and Why You May Want to Start Doing It.
By now, I am sure that most people have heard of yoga. Some people think of yoga as a lot of bendy moves which they cannot imagine themselves in.

Isagenix Cleanse – My Personal Results
Ok, so a lot of people are asking me to review the Isagenix cleanse. I wanted to wait until I have completed at least one week to start writing a review. I was not sure if a week was enough at first, but amazingly enough, one week is all I needed to get amazing results. I still have three more weeks before I finish the full 30 day program, and I will be adding to this post to share my progress in the future.
I have tried a number of different cleanses before to include lemonade diet and colon cleanse. Most of my cleanses only lasted a few days because I was starving and craving to eat food. In many cases I would eat more food than I needed because I was very hungry and my eyes were bigger than my stomach. Isagenix cleanse is not at all like other cleanses that I have tried. read more

Why is Cleansing an Important Part of Weight Loss
Many people who are trying to lose weight, gain muscle, and get healthy overall, have tried different diets and different fitness programs. In many cases different diets and programs do not work.

The reason this can happen is due to impurities in the body which have not been cleaned out. read more
