Have you ever committed to working out for a time, but never got the results you wanted? If you have, you're in the 90% of all people that purchase the gym membership around the time of Thanksgiving and Christmas and quit around the third week of January. There are many reasons why people quit going to the gym; Your favorite machine is always busy, it's too far to drive, women feel self conscious of men staring at them, your friend that committed to this program with you can't go today. My excuse was "There's no time to go!". If you're a touring musician, it's a hassle to even attempt going to a gym. For most though it's finding that groove to keep you going isn't there because the results don't come fast enough.
There are 3 things to do to help you get into the best shape of your life. Two of them you've heard your whole life, diet(nutrition is a better word) and exercise. The third is getting your body away from an acidic level and back on the basic side of the PH scale. It's also called detoxification.
So lets build a groove! Think of this as a power trio. Each musician, the drummer, bassist and guitar player can all stand alone at anytime, but their effectiveness is best when they are one in the pocket of the groove together.
1. Detoxification is the drummer! He's the foundation to the whole groove. Often the drummer will click off a song to get everyone on the same tempo. This is so important and often overlooked by those that want the change to their body to come quickly. Don't bother heading to GNC to pick up one of those "detox in 24 hours" products. They often have a negative effect on your body or don't work. The proven product that is most tauted for helping detoxify your body is blue-green algae. A 30 day supply of these supplements is around $4 a day or about $120 a month.
2. Nutrition is the drummer and the bassist together in the groove. The drummer and the bassist playing together are now one and synergy is happening. The nutrition you provide needs to be the best quality possible and the right amount. If the fuel is bad then don't expect great results in your workouts. Your body uses the fuel you've provided and needs to be replenished quickly after a workout. The window to do this is about an hour after your workout. If you take in enough of the right fuel then you won't "bonk" or sputter out during your workout.
3. Exercise is the guitarist intermingling within the groove the melody, the movement, the vehicle that progresses the groove from tension to resolution.
Here's my recommendation: For detoxification and nutrition use Shakeology. http://www.shakeology.com/fit2praise
Remember how much the blue-green algae pills cost? Shakeology is your complete nutrition plus the blue-green algae is in it for the same price. A much better deal.
For the long hours of travelling on a bus in a close confined space, I recommend 10 Minute Trainer. http://www.beachbodycoach.com/fit2praise Find it all at my site addresses above.
To your health,
