Let’s Get Physical…Our ‘Future’ depends on it!

// August 12th, 2010 // No Comments » // Fitness, Mind/Body/inspiration, Running, Shakeology, Sirius Nutrition, Team Beachbody, Verve/Vemma Next, wellness

I hand out my business cards to folks, they look at it and say…”I ain’t running… I don’t run!…I don’t workout! ” This week I even had someone tell me he doesn’t eat fruits or vegetables. I don’t expect everyone to be in love with fitness and health and have the same passion as I do. Considering the negative trends of obesity and preventable health related diseases and deaths, I would expect people to be a little more mindful of how they treat their bodies. Overeating, lack of exercise, dependency on prescription drugs, smoking, excessive drinking (alcohol) are just a few of the issues that plague this society and are hurting the growth and development of our future generations.

I have kids and I don’t want to outlive them. An old Chinese Proverb states…‘To outlive one’s children is a curse of the gods.’ Sadly this may become an unfortunate trend. This trend be can be reversed through exercise. Now we, as the adults have to get ourselves moving and be positive role models (in Health) for our youth. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, you need Physical Activity to:
* Maintain weight.
* Reduce high blood pressure.
* Reduce risk for type 2 diabetes, heart attack, stroke, and several forms of cancer.
* Reduce arthritis pain and associated disability.
* Reduce risk for osteoporosis and falls.
* Reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.

This is why I do what I do. I really care about the well being of others and I will do anything in my power to make sure I assist as many people start their journey towards wellness and be a catalyst towards change in their lives. Boot Camps, Run Clubs, Fitness classes, Fitness advice, Nutritional advice and most importantly…MOTIVATION is what I will offer to those willing to accept it!

“Physical Fitness is the Key” ~ Michelle Obama

// February 9th, 2010 // No Comments » // Fitness, Sirius Nutrition, wellness

“I love burgers and fries, you know? And I love ice cream and cake,” Obama told ABC News in a Good Morning America interview with Robin Roberts. “So do most kids.”

HOW DO WE BALANCE THIS OUT??? Through Physical Fitness! I love it! We have individuals in POWER, serving as role models for Health and Wellness and this is something we can definitely pass on to our children. Being a PE teacher, I do understand that the youth will eat “junk” from time to time, even too much. As a role model in the Fitness field it is my job to make sure my PE students are able to minimize the unhealthy food (not totally eliminate it), understand the benefits of eating healthy also understand and participate in Exercise 30+ minutes a day.  They also have to be educated on the potentially deadly effects of unhealthy eating and a sedentary lifestyle. (”Preventable Diseases”~ diabetes, Lung Disease, heart disease, stroke, cancer aka THE FATAL FIVE) The difficult part is getting the parents involved. It would be much easier if parents were teaching this “Balance” of Fitness and Nutrition at home. But…I do believe this “Balance” being modeled by the highest power in our country will help towards the education of our youth, as well as, their parents.

Sirius Fitness & San Dieguito Half Marathon and 5K Run/Walk

// December 14th, 2009 // No Comments » // Fitness, Running

We will be running the San Dieguito Half Marathon and 5K Run/Walk on Sunday February 14, 2009 and YOU can join us too! We have been running 5k’s, 10k’s and having a good time whether supporting causes like the Jingle Bell 5K Run/Walk for Arthritis or The Susan Komen Breast Cancer Run/Walk or just running up Cowles Mountain! But now we are getting ready for our first Half Marathon and we have to take it up a notch! We will be training every week working our way up to those 13.1 miles and loving every minute of it. (not really) ;-) We are doing this to eventually get ready for San Diego’s “Granddaddy of them all”…The San Diego Rock & Roll Marathon. (That one scares me) I promised myself when I turned 40 this year that I would run a Marathon before I turned 41 and I will not let myself down! Wish us luck and pray for us (if you’re the praying type) because we know it won’t be easy.

If you are from San Diego and want to join a run club of folks that meetup, run, go to Fitness Boot Camps, run stairs, run mountains, etc… Join us! (Click Here) All fitness levels are represented in our group!logo_2010
