Snowboarding! Snowplanet Recap!

This past weekend was one of my favorites so far in New Zealand. We went to see The Hunger Games (enjoyed the movie but the book is obviously better) and we went SNOWBOARDING!


If you haven’t figured it out yet I love snowboarding. I’m not the best at it. I’m not fast. I’m not good at tricks. But I just love the act of snowboarding down a mountain – or a fake mountain as it were.


Snowboarding snowplanet


We went to Snowplanet on Saturday for several hours of snowboarding fun. We are planning a trip to an actual mountain in a few months once winter rolls in so I wanted Kepa to get a chance to learn a bit of the basics before hitting an actual mountain. Plus it was a good chance for me to refresh since it’s been a few years since I went snowboarding.


Snowplanet is a nice indoor snow facility that has a slope with a couple different options and a beginners area. We started off on the bunny hill to let Kepa get the hang of gliding and stopping. After an hour an a half of that we graduated to the bigger area and he worked from halfway up while I went to the top. He gained confidence and skillsquickly (I was so proud!) and he eventually joined me at the top.


Snowboarding


I loved almost everything about Snowplanet from the easy slope to the music they played but I hated the lifts. They are the kind you have to hold on to while it pulls you up. I tried using my arms but that didn’t workout so I ended up using both my legs and arms which tired me out! I probably could have gone 6 more hours at Snowplanet if the lift they use wasn’t so tiring to me. I much prefer chair lifts at actual mountains.


Regardless I had a blast! Kepa even videotaped one of my runs down:


We didn’t realize the camera was getting foggy. ;)


Like I said, I’m not super fast or good it’s just something I enjoy. I’m not aiming to be the best either. I’ve gone a few times over the years and just really enjoy the sport.


It’s a fun (and sadly expensive) hobby that I don’t get to indulge in nearly enough. Maybe now that I live a lot closer to both an indoor facility and an actual mountain I’ll get to go more often.


Fingers crossed!

Fruit diet: Fit on Fruit

Eat fruits and fit? Sounds like a joke, right? Nope. There's just too many advantages from fruit to ignore or exclude them from your diet.

People on a mission to lose weight, will try almost anything. They can get pretty desperate.

If you the pages of fitness or bodybuilding magazine scan, you'll see a bunch of sample diets of prominent fitness people. They are usually pretty cut and dry chicken, broccoli and occasional brown rice diets. Bla. Bla. Bla.

You hardly ever see bodybuilders wolfin' down fruit smoothies. Ever see a muscle building ad with a ripped Lady eat a handful of grapes? Nope. For a long time I did not understand. I mean, fruit is healthy, right? Why not the hardcore fitness mags push them? In fact, they make almost fruits to be an evil. They discuss all the barely.

Then it hit me: they can't make money with fruit. They got to be pushing many supplements and protein. It's not like they can take advantage of apples and oranges. Prepackaged edible widgets are all the rage.

In reality, the fruit is a natural human nutrition. We were made for it. Our bodies need. It delivers many of the nutritional components that we need to live. Not only survive – but healthy life. What is the use of having a fit body looking like you're a seedbeds unhealthy cancer? Makes a lot of sense, in my opinion.

You can get lean and hard and eat fruit? The answer is unequivocally, Yes.

Why fruit is therefore a big part of your diet? Some top reasons are:


According to Medicine Net, fruits can help reduce the risk of many diseases. Risk of cancer is much lower in individuals who eat large fruits. Blood pressure can also be reduced by eating fruits, along with a healthy diet plan. Because fruit nutrition powerhouses, they can even help reduce the risks and the impact of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and stroke.


No fruit contain many calories. Since they offer healthy energy, without too many calories, they make an excellent food in a weight loss or weight management program. Not only are fruits low in calories, but they contain a generous amount of fibers, which promotes satiety. Another advantage for those on weight loss programs is that fruits consist of large quantities of water, bulk and volume to add to meals.


Fruits contain large quantities of various vitamins and minerals that make them a top priority in a healthy diet. The CDC reports that fruit is an excellent source of potassium, vitamin a, and vitamin c. potassium, which helps maintain a healthy blood pressure, can be found in tomatoes and plums. Vitamin A, which promotes healthy skin and eyes, is found in melon and pumpkin. A melon one portion, for example, has 120% of the daily value for vitamin a.

Vitamin c has many benefits, including a stronger immune system, and healthier gums and teeth. Kiwi, melon, oranges, mangoes, strawberries and are all good sources of vitamin c.

I eat vegetables with every meal. That's five times a day for me. I am still skinny. I know many people who eat tons of vegetables and have low body fat percentages. There is a great discussion of people who make a living out of fit lifestyles that nothing to eat but fruit. It is an interesting read. Richard Blackman incredibly suited for Pete's sake and is a fruitarian. Not that I'm promoting that; I try only to show that eating fruit your muscle building or weight loss efforts will not thwart it.

Oh, and the image of the man at the top of the page? He is a vegan bodybuilder Kristopher Flannery. Nice, huh?

(Note: If you are in pre competition mode, Yes, you have to be slightly tighter with your diet. Sugars, even natural ones, progress can slow down if you try to achieve extremely low body fat percentages. But even if you decide to eliminate fruit during this period, it is still only temporary – for a few weeks ... tops. When normal, healthier eating is resumed, adding fruit right back in.)

Fruit does not make you fat. If you carefully plan your diet, fruits can easily included, without prejudice to it. In fact, fruit in your diet with your health, your vitality, improve and boost your lifespan. Plus it tastes AWESOME. It's not worth?

Awesome Workout Songs. Cool Tunes of Different Genres.

Nothing's better than a new set of workout songs to get motivated for the next workout. Whenever I find juuuuust the right song that's got the exact beat my body needs at the moment, it puts me into an incredible state of flow. A great high... Much more so than any chocolate chip cookie or glass of wine can offer me.


Keep in mind that many of the workout songs I find, you may not have heard of, or maybe are totally out of your comfort zone. If your fave is Metallica and I suggest Will Smith, don't freak out. Just give it a try, even if getting a laugh is your main motivator. It works, really.

With negativity as a catalyst for change: motivation for weight loss

Our stores often smack in the face, negativity, especially when we are on our lowest point.  Using negativity in reverse fashion you can turn into a powerful catalyst for change, and help fuel your motivation for weight loss.

Negativity is independent of people.  Of corporate downsizing to faulty toes, crap happens.  Let's say you feel kind of schlumpy.  Then, bam!  A friend comments that you've placed on a few pounds.  A friend called me in tears recently about an episode like this. It happens to the best of us.

The question is then, does not want to cross your path is negativity about, but what you will do when it does.  Will allow you to seep into your subconscious, those seeds of negativity to take root?  Conversely, you will just drop off the boat and to shrink?

Most people seem to choose the options above.  If someone comments on your weight, for example, you can choose the option to set up a home and allow thought in your mind.   You can get discouraged, and your subconscious will begin to believe and act on that input.  Your mind, with the support of those pesky thought, you can trick the body into believing you don't deserve or cannot reach you after.  Acting on that internal dialog, you can eat more, exercise less and ultimately prove the unconscious negative statement true.

Sound farfetched?  Barely.  You can trace back to a root thought each manifestation.

Catalyst for Change, CC Liscense by AlasisLet's say you are more optimistic, though, and you choose two, causing the snarky comment to roll of your back.  You can deny the statement and let it go, zero wasting time on it.  This tactic is pretty effective at destroying unwanted thoughts.

Option two can resemble the wiser choice, and it is indeed better than an option.  However, I would like to present you with a third option; that requires a bit of courage, but has the potential to be much more results.  This evasive in more motivation for weight loss with the help of negativity as fodder and a catalyst for change.

Let's stay with the example of someone comment on your weight.  It often happens to my clients and it affects everyone almost the same way;  anger or self-loathing.  Instead of spiral in negativity or ignore the comment, why not take a good, hard look at the facts, make you feel, and how they use that knowledge as fuel to bring you over to see the change.

Yes, like a comment, "Hey, you pack a few extra pounds?," or "so, when are you due?" (when you're not even pregnant) sticking your ego.  It can push you cower, refuting, or even reciprocate.  Probably, you'll only want to go to wolf down a pint of ice cream or another comfort food to reduce the stabbing.

Instead, once you become aware of what happens, why not try a technique called VAPOR?  Using this simple method, you can successfully (albeit not easily) negativity to use as a catalyst for change.

Read more about how I vapour ( AValidate, ccept, Plan, bstinate, O Results) use and how this simple mental technique can bring about quick motivation for weight loss.  I'm sure that not many trainers will tell you, "Don't waste the negativity", but I am!  Consider it a gift.  Read the article here: how to use VAPOR as motivation for weight loss (coming 1 June)
