Diana: Inspiring Diabetes-Management & Weight Loss Client

Diana: Inspiring Diabetes-Management & Weight Loss Client

Diana, Diana, Diana.

WOW, what a transformation!

She is a tender little one, at the youthful age of 24!

She came to me after being diagnosed with Type II Diabetes, and realized that if she didn’t make a change, her life would be cut short. She hoped that exercise could help prevent her from taking diabetes medication. (so far, so good!)

She works out with me 3 days a week, and walks every day at lunch. She watches what she eats, and has to ...

Developing Plan for Post Competition

I have been doing a lot of thinking about post competition and reading different things about it. It’s a really big deal. Competitors change their whole life focus for contest prep and take on this new form of dieting and training and LIVING, for this short moment onstage, then once it’s over and it’s traumatic and anti-climactic because it’s like…now what? It’s all over and life is back to “normal”…and what does “normal” mean anymore? How am I supposed to ...

Are You a Magic Seeker? ->By ChickenTuna

I. love. this. Great motivation! For me…and to spread to my clients! When they are quibbling about not seeing results after one workout and one clean meal…or people asking me about how effective L-Carnitine is or anything else…yet their diet is not 100%…I want to say “what’s the point??”…no supplement can counteract an inconsistent diet…Anyway, “ChickenTuna” has been a contributing member of BodySpace (associated with BodyBuilding.com) for many years now and her abs are more than memorable. Yes, I know ...

Exotic Chicken Breast to Heal

My shoulder has been hurting…a bit inflammed. I saw the chiropractor at work, and she says it may be bicep tendonitis…grr..(I know something has been wrong, but didn’t know what…)…so I may rest it some more :( I hate rest! Anyway, I decided it was time to make some “anti-inflammatory” chicken. I seasoned the chicken breast with herbs that decrease inflammation, such as:

Cayenne
Tumeric
Ginger
Cumin

And threw the chicken breasts on the George Foreman grill ...

Coconut Cake Batter Protein Mash

I had a great workout at the gym this morning. Perhaps it was a little artificially inspired by (cough cough) caffeine but it FELT GREAT! This marks the second week in my strength cycle, so I worked upper body, and (per my program) was able to increase my mileage to 35 minutes of jogging. Yeah! It feels great. My stamina has not returned to pre-injury stamina but I know that comes with time and persistence, so I am feeling so ...
