One of the main goals of a good personal trainer is to structure a ʻlearning process’ so that you acquire the skills and knowledge necessary for you to make health, fitness and lifestyle decisions for yourself. There are many other benefits in choosing a health and fitness trainer excluding the obvious ones of motivation and guidance. Our professionals have access to a vast amount of experience in helping women throughout the entire Metro Atlanta area lose baby weight. They have been trained to the highest standards in order to improve their lifestyles, giving them the ability to help their clients reach their fitness goals. Our personal trainers offer healthy nutritional guidelines in addition to a strategic resistance & endurance training program. Our overall aim is enhancement, achieved through education and awareness.

To get through the holidays, create three goals: a large (macro) goal, a medium (meso) goal and a small (micro) goal.  Examples of large goals could be: “I want to lose 10 pounds in two months” or “I want to maintain my current weight within two pounds during November and December”.  Once you have a long term goal, the next step is to create your meso goal. This goal should help you achieve your macro goal and the time frame should last for one month. Therefore your task is to set challenging and specific goals for the month of November and December.  Examples are: 1) log 25 workouts each month or 2) run a total of 30 miles.  The smallest goal, or micro goal, is the weekly goal.  How many times you plan to exercise each week or how many times you will prepare a home cooked meal to help you achieve your meso goal. These goals set the tone for how you will achieve your large goal.

To help you achieve your goals, create an environment that will help you be successful. Use a healthy grocery checklist when going to the grocery store.  Educate yourself about proper nutrition and exercise by visiting informative and trustworthy websites.  Remember, not all websites are created equal.  Download and start using smartphone apps that log daily eating habits and workouts.  There are also apps that guide you through calorie burning workouts.  Buy a group personal training session package.  This is essential for those who find it hard to exercise on their own.  Personal training does require a significant financial commitment; however group personal training sessions are significantly less than individual sessions. The holiday time can be a slow time for some trainers and they might be running a special promotion.  Plus, you can rally your friends to join you or make new “fit” friends.

While setting your goals, think about how great you are going to look and feel and how you will be well on your way to starting the new year with a more healthier and fit you. Have a wonderful and active holiday season!

Healthy eating patterns should be encouraged before, during and after school.  The importance of eating a healthy breakfast should be stressed.  A good breakfast to start the day is scrambled eggs, 1 slice of turkey bacon, 1 slice of wheat toast and 8oz. of water or freshly squeezed juice.  Make it a habit to pack lunches.  Many schools are trying to provide healthy lunch options. However, to be on the safe side, pack a healthy sandwich, a piece of fruit, and sugar-free pudding as a guilt free dessert. After school, children are often tempted to eat fast food or other high fat processed foods.  Replace the salty, sugary snacks in the house with better alternatives like light popcorn, fruits, baked sweet potato fries, peanut butter sandwiches or yogurt.  Children should participate in the dinner preparation.  They will be more likely to try new foods and better adopt healthy eating patterns.

After school and on weekends limit TV, video game and computer time.  Find physical activities that your children enjoy.  If they like the activity, the more likely they will keep it up.  They will also likely be to continue if they record each time they are active for 60 minutes.  Remember physical activity can include playing sports, dancing, jumping rope, and swimming.  Before starting any physical activity, make sure the children warm-up.  This should be about 5 minutes of light activity. Parents should also ensure that their children cool down and stretch to prevent injury.  Strength training using weights should be under close supervision of a trained fitness professional.   Not all fitness professionals can safely work with children. Be sure to ask a lot of questions before you get started and monitor the first couple of sessions.

Parents, offer constant verbal support to their children and set an example for them to follow.  Children are more likely to adopt healthy behaviors if they see their parents eating healthy and exercising. Go on family walks, play catch in the yard. It just may help their kids live a long and healthy life.

Breathe continually during each exercise. Those diagnosed with hypertension should consult with their physician before starting. There is a tendency to relax the mid-section. This may put added pressure on the lower back muscles. Make sure abs are engaged by pulling your bellybutton towards your back. By using this quick at home workout, you get a great workout session in with no sweat and minimal time.

Studies have shown that engaging in physical activity is a great way for families to have fun together. It increases the bond between family members as well as a healthy form of competition. For instance, family members can compete to see who can maintain a fast speed on the elliptical machine for the longest period of time or who can make through an entire spin class without quitting first.  On vacation or at home, go to a park, gym, or swimming pool and have fun together engaging in physical activity or find team activities or challenges to promote working together or healthy activities. Enroll the family in run/walks or participate in community family fun days. As a family, cook and plan meals together.  The parents and children should eat the same thing, so make sure it is something everyone will enjoy.

I truly believe that the obesity epidemic should be fought one family at a time.  I am very proud of my family and I am excited to see they are placing a higher priority on exercising in their lives.  Get moving!

Eliminate Sugar when you can.  Why is sugar such an enemy to the body? In its processed form, found in many foods in the grocery stores, stays in the body instead of being used for energy and can be stored as fat.  To reduce sugar cravings, eat protein and healthy fat to help you feel full and reduce consumption of high glycemic carbohydrates that causes spikes and drops in blood sugar levels.

Have a plan of attack when you eat out. In this day and age it is inevitable that there will come a time when you eat a meal in a restaurant or someone else’s house. Before you go to a restaurant, take a look at their menu and pick entrées that grilled or baked with vegetables. Choosing an appetizer is a great way to control portion sizes.

Don’t focus solely on weight loss. Do not use the number you see on the scale as your only measure on how successful your weight loss program is going. Find an item of clothing in your closet that you can’t comfortably fit into. Occasionally, try it on to see how it fits. This is a good indicator that you are losing inches.  You can lose inches and not lose weight.  This is especially true if you lift weights.

Don’t let setbacks stop you.  Don’t get lost holding a guilty party if you get off track. Instead, reassess what made you unsuccessful, and then pick up where you left off. Make sure your diet is not too strict.  If you are on the go most of the day, be sure to pack snacks to keep you full and prevent trips to fast food drive through. Set small, progressive goals.  For example, make it an goal to exercise 3 days a week for 30 minutes for the next 3 weeks.  During the following 3 weeks add either a day or additional time to make it more challenging.  Lastly, remember that a long term goal should be achieving a healthy and active life.  Therefore, understand there will be ups and downs along your journey.  Celebrate each success and don’t spend a lot of time on setbacks or “slip-ups”.
