Shortcuts!
We all hear about them. New diets, new fads, they come in all forms. 
Trust me I have been amazed at some of the new products out there. 
This is not something you do for 2 months and then stop.
This is something that you do for a lifetime. 
This is training for life. 
I have been doing a lot of studying lately and I was shocked by this stat.
"just 48 hours after exercise, the body hits a lower steady-state rate of protein synthesis and stops building and repairing muscle" 
48 HOURS! Atrophy begins. WHAAAT?
As we age we naturally loose muscle Mass and bone density and ladies..........
This begins in our 30's. 
Are we too loose hope? No way! But we certainly should not be looking for fast 
fixes or way to improve our health WITHOUT working our bodies and feeding our bodies properly. 
Most of us eat too little protein, or don't eat enough period. We drink too much, 
eat the leftovers on our kids plates, say we don't have time to eat healthy. 
We eat out too much and think our choices are healthy... 
now combo that with stress and we are setting ourselves up for disaster. 
Here is the thing... it can be fixed. With a little bit of patience, some TLC (towards yourself that is),
 and prep you can do this and when you do it will become a healthy habit! 
1. Tell yourself YOU ARE WORTH IT and make no excuses. 
Exercise relieves stress PERIOD! It releases feel good endorphins, improves your mood, 
sleep and allows you to forget about daily problems. 
Think of it as an escape! You don't need to exercise for an hour.
 Make it 20 minutes of good heart pumping work and be done with it! 
Try my online bootcamp. I promise you a good workout! 
2. EAT. Make is simple! Don't have time? I have tons of ideas for you! Just ask!
3. YOU OWE IT YOURSELF, your family, your kids, your significant other and to the big Man.
He gave us a body to take care of. Think of it this way. 
Would you feed your child or pet a bowl of candy for breakfast, or fried food every day, 
or allow them to drink soda at every meal? 
Or better yet would you just NOT feed your pet or child? 
Would you NOT walk your dog? Allow your children to sit on the couch and watch TV ALL DAY?
Then why treat yourself that way?
You cannot take care of others if you don't take care of yourself. 
Realize that you are worth the work and time it takes to feed, pamper, and workout!
And don't forget about your soul! We cannot do it alone. 
Discipline requires faith... in yourself and the big Man. Don't try to do it alone either!
LASTLY GET EVERYONE ON BOARD! YOU NEED A SUPPORT SYSTEM!
Make it a family affair! Clear the cabinets together. 
Tell your friends/spouse.... "Not until I get my workout in" "NO, I cannot eat out tonite, how about you come over and we make a clean meal together?" 
Don't be sabotaged or feel guilty about making the right choices. Be an example and watch them follow! 
Remember I am always here if you need help! Or suggestions or back up!!!!
Work hard, play hard, pray harder!!!!!!
