Boot Camp 300 Workout and The Benefits of Organic Nutrition

Today in our Tri Valley Boot Camp we did one of the many variations of the 300 Workout! Boy have my campers rocked the house on this one!! Thought you might enjoy it. Like I tell them every day.... don't be afraid to make your body a little uncomfortable, challenge it and see the changes begin.

Once you do the work out don't forget to read the article below about Splenda and how it really affects your body. Stick to the natural stuff, cut the sugars, increase your water intake, increase your veggies by two fold and have a balanced healthy fresh nutrition plan to support your macronutrients- Protien ~ Carbs ~ Fat.

Have fun with the workout! Let me know how you do. If I can be of assistance in your health and fitness needs just let me know!

Each set is 100 reps. # of sets for time. They had 20 minutes to see how close they came to the 300 rep goal. They kicked some BUTT! My newbies completed 200 reps and my SUPERSTARS surpassed the 300!

Great job ladies! Way to work hard, agressive and strong!

Here it is try yourself and modify it for your own fitness level by adding more weight or more reps per set.

Have fun!

This is an article that was shared with me by my fellow Adventure Boot Camp trainer Kelli Calabrese, is about Risky Foods regarding hormones, pesticides and carcinogens. I cover some of this in my camps about taking hold of your body and living healthy. I think you may be surprised at some of these findings.


Not Just HFCS and Peanut Butter: 10 Other Risky Foods
Is buying organic the answer to avoiding hormones, pesticides and carcinogens?
By Maura Judkis, U.S. News & World Report

As if we don't have enough to be worried about already. In the midst of food safety scares from salmonella in peanut butter and mercury in high fructose corn syrup, Sprig.com has produced a list of 10 other foods that can be dangerous. Their risks range from hormones to pesticides to carcinogenic substances. How to avoid many of these risks? Buy organic.


Farmed salmon. It's high in polychlorinated biphenyls, with 11 times more dioxins than wild salmon.


Conventionally grown bell peppers. They require more pesticides than any other vegetable—with as many as 64 being found on a single sample of pepper in one study.
Non-organic strawberries. Some growers of strawberries irrigate their plants with Nutri-Sweet-laced water. The sugar substitute is a probable carcinogen.


Chilean sea bass. The fish is high in mercury, and if eaten consistently over time, can elevate the body's mercury levels to dangerous amounts.


Non-organic peaches. Pesticides easily penetrate their soft skins and permeate the fruit.


Genetically modified corn. We still don't know the long-term effects of genetically modified corn, but it's been tied to an increase in allergies for humans.


Bluefin tuna. Not only is it high in mercury, but overfishing may drive the species to extinction and affect the sea's ecosystem.


Industrially farmed chicken. Arsenic has been found in conventional chickens, as has antibiotic-resistant bacteria.


Non-organic apples. When grown in humid Mid-Atlantic states, the crop uses more pesticides than California, Oregon and Washington states.


Cattle treated with rBGH. Recombinant bovine growth hormone has been traced to breast cancer and hormonal disorders.




So my suggestion when thinking about nutrition for you and your family if you stick to as much organic healthy fresh food as you can, your body will thank you in the long run. Treat it like the temple that it is.

Live Agressive, Strong & Healthy

Friday The 13th....Representing Possibilities

Here we are on Friday the 13th!!! Now there are a lot of people that I know and that are out there that make this day a day of gloom and doom. Well I am here to say "No Worries", it's just another day REPRESENTING POSSIBILITIES!

This year there are three Friday the 13th and it hasn't happened since 1998 and it won't happen again until 2015. Not that I really care about that, because anyone who knows me knows I don't, let's just think about this for a moment and see how you can turn things into a moment of success for you in your everyday life.

I watch a powerful video pretty much each day and each time I do I get all inspired and ready to go all over again. I have never really told anyone about the video but I am sure many many of you out there have already viewed it. Well for those that haven't I recommend you DO NOT pass up the opportunity.

Throughout my journey of life I have come across some great opportunities and have tried to make the right choices. But as we all know sometimes there are those choices that put us in a place that after the fact we wish we would have not chosen to make. As I always say, "would have, could have and should have, imply feelings of guilt". You already made the choice, you recognize the results did not put you in a favorable position, now make the choice to change your position.

I am a firm believer that no matter what the excuses or explainations we have for our good or bad choices, "We are who we CHOSE to be". This video confirms that there are others out there that agree that are making powerful choices to change not only themselves but the world around them.

Make a choice TODAY to live your life with the intent to rise again every time you fall and keep moving forward in the moment.

Hope you enjoy the video as much as I do ever day. If nothing else I certainly have no complaints viewing Will Smith's beautiful smile. It's just simply to die for! I will never be afraid to die on the treadmill again! SCROLL DOWN TO VIEW THE VIDEO!

MAKE THE CHOICE NOW AND KNOW YOU HAVE AN AFFECT ON WHAT HAPPENS....MOVE YOUR UNIVERSE

AND.....
