It's time to uncover your inner athlete and fall in love all over again!

A New Era in Fitness

Fitness has evolved tremendously since the early days of round cement dumbbells and jump ropes. Now all the luxuries of home are provided for you in your workout experience, to help make it more convenient, enjoyable and have it feel less like, well, working out, as possible. Cardio machines now come equipped with numerous amenities, from personal televisions to fans. People now can seclude themselves from the rest of the world with head phones that connect to televisions’ as they workout. Strength equipment has also advanced with more user friendly resistance machines that provide every possible way in which to target a muscle.

A Tough Love approach to Health and Fitness

Yesterday at the grocery store, I came across a child, who was about 8-years-old. She was lying on the floor flailing her arms and legs yelling "I want a chocolate bar." I could have predicted the outcome. The child continued to scream until mom put a chocolate bar in the cart. The crying ceased instantly.

A.M. Fat Burn - Tom Venuto

Acetyl-L-Carnitine

Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC) is the powerful but lesser known cousin of L-carnitine (LC), a natural cellular amino acid synthesized by the body. LC is required for the conversion of fat, one of three types of cellular fuel, to chemical energy. LC functions as a vehicle to transport subunits of fat, fatty acids, into the specialized cellular structures, the mitochondria, for conversion to a chemical form of energy. A deficiency in LC, common in vegetarians (vegans), aging, and those who use certain prescribed drugs, results in a tired physical and mental state.

After Exercise Headache - More Serious Than You Think?

It's surprisingly common - you're exercising, everything's fine, and then POW - a headache strikes! Or, sometimes, a headache hits while you're exercising. Is it just a minor annoyance? Or could it be a signal that something serious is going on? Should you go to the doctor, or just shrug it off?

Anabolic Hormones - A Two-Edged Sword

When I was a young boy, emerging muscles were the coolest thing. If a vein popped out a little, that was even more awesome. There were no fitness centers or body building gyms to amount to anything back then (Stone Age). If you aspired to brawn, Charles Atlas paraphernalia advertised in comic books was guaranteed to help you turn the cards on the guy who kicked sand in your face on the beach last summer.

Aquatic Fitness The Move To Water Exercise

Are Low Carb Diets The Best Way To Lose Body Fat

Images: 48x62_steak.jpgThese days, the carbohydrate issue seems to be the burning question on the minds of nearly everyone who is interested in getting leaner. Not a single week goes by that I don’t receive an e-mail with a question about the low carb/high protein diet.

ART and Injury Recovery

Active Release Techniques (ART) is the “gold standard” in the treatment of soft tissue injuries. ART providers include MD’s, DC’s, and DO’s; most have advanced training in soft tissue & sports injury. The soft tissues include muscle, tendon, ligament, fascia, and nerve tissues.


Avoid Common Fitness Pitfalls

While exercising isn’t complicated, it’s very easy to make mistakes. Often times the mistakes are made because of lack of proper technique training or simply due to rushing to get the workout completed. Regardless of the reason for the mistakes, they can lead to injuries or at the very least be counter-productive to your fitness goals.

Bad Workouts

There are bad workouts and then there are bad workouts. I am not talking here about the ones we know are going to be bad. You know the ones I mean... you arrive at the gym knowing you are going to perform badly.
