It’s the beginning of a New Year, and that means it’s time to turn over a new leaf and make that New Year’s Resolution. Maybe you want to try recycling more, or driving less, or learning a new skill, or maybe improving your health. If you are looking to start a new workout program here are a few helpful things to keep in mind. If your body is not used to extreme workouts, take it slowly and ease into it. Over time you can increase the intensity of each workout. The proper preparations are also required for a safe and effective workout; make sure each session begins with a warm up. While performing each exercise, correct technique should be used, as well, to maximize the results. End every workout with a cool down, to allow your body to return to its resting state. Make sure to drink water for the duration, too. Remember, you do not have to do the same workout routine every time you exercise; changing it up keeps working out interesting. Get creative, and get started. Good luck with your new year’s resolutions! posted Jan 4th, 10:44 am Stay Fit over the HolidaysOne way to prevent gaining weight during the holiday season is to workout! To make your workouts most efficient, and prevent putting on a few more pounds, exercise around meal time. Working out before you eat gets your metabolism going before you even consume your feast. Exercising after a meal will keep your metabolism running, as well. It is easy to over eat around this time. Try cutting back on some high calorie foods and adding more physical activity to you days, and hopefully you will feel the benefits. posted Dec 15th 2011, 02:23 pm Squats are the Best Exercise - PeriodSquats are probably the most effective core, conditioning, and mass building exercise that exists. In addition to using your stabilizing muscles throughout the exercise you will also use your quads, glutes, hamstrings, and back muscles (among other muscles) as well. If you do the exercise properly with full effort every other bodybuilding exercise will appear much easier to perform as a result. We also have a great product which helps take the barbell stress off of your upper back and redistribute the weight on your back so you can focus on the squat movement and technique rather that discomfort, numbness or shearing muscle trauma.

The power for this lift starts from your legs. Bring the weight down slowly until it lightly touches your chest. Then explode up to the starting position. Flex and arch your back slightly but always keep your glutes on the bench. Use different length grips and bring the bar down to different parts of your chest to work the entire pec area. For variation use dumbbells as well. posted Oct 10th 2011, 11:29 pm Importance of a Healthy DietIt is if the utmost importance to follow healthy, well balanced diet.
