Rise in Diabetes

Yesterday a heard a news report that shocked me.

It was a report on the rise of people being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. The report stated that over the past 10 years the number of of people diagnosed with the disease in the UK had risen by around 44%

44% can you believe this??? This is crazy!!!

This was not just adults but teenagers and children as well. Its frightening to think that young people are so at risk and that we are also putting our children at risk by letting them eat so much sugary crap and processed foods.

It does not have to be this way for the rest of us and we can prevent our children from diabetes too. Its time to take hold of our lives and change them for the better with healthy eating regular fitness/exercise and getting more rest.

Music Breathes Exercise Energy!

One of the best ways to help you workout hard and intensely is listening to music.

Not just boring crap but your save kind of pumpin' rockin' beats.

I would recommend tunes that really gets you pumped up and ready to throw yourself around like a total nut!!

I myself have just bought the new prodigy album and cant want to get it on the ipod and hit my next work out its gonna be devastating!!!

So keep it rockin' when you next wanna get a great intense fat burning workout!

Are you a Cardio Slave?

On Friday I was standing in the gym and took a couple of mins just to look around at over 20 gym members slogging it away at the cardio machines for 40-60 mins and more.

Crazy crazy crazy!!!

I explain try to all these members that they would benefit way more from short interval bursts and resistance training for their fat loss goals but it seems to be a waste of time as every single day these same gym members do the same thing with the belief they are getting results from the long boring cardio sessions watching TV or chatting to friends or even reading a book/magazine.

I mean come on can that really get you a great fat burning workout.......ERRRR HELL NO is the answer, it's a shame to see all that dedication and work going to no use at all.

And that these dedicated fitness enthusiasts have become......

SLAVES TO CARDIO!

Don't become a slave to cardio yourself, change what you do every month and make the first chages to get away from the machines and pick up some dumbbells exercise intensely and start seeing the results you desire.

Fat Burning Workout!

For a great fat burning workout try moving away from boring cardio machines and shift your body into a fat burning furnace with bodyweight cardio and resistence training to get you really sweating and your muscles burning.

This will get you working at the right intensity to really get great fat loss results.

15 Press Ups (on knees if needed)
15 Low Rows
10 Jump Squats
15 Chin Ups (assisted if needed)
15 Alternating DB Shoulder Presses
10 Bench Jumps

Do this circuit 4 x

Then finish with 5-7 mins of easy running or sprint intervals:

Run for 20 seconds then rest for 10 seconds and repeat.

Have a great workout...
