Okay, it has been way too long and for that I apologize. I promise to get more up to date. I’m thinking about just working from this website and not facebook anymore. Having everyone come here everyday for their Challenges and comments might be the best idea so when I have my morning coffee and do my posts, I only have to go to one site, mytrainerbob.com…..I welcome comments.
Pull-Ups are one of the hardest and best exercises you can do. Being able to pull up your own body weight shows where your physical capabilities are so beginners try just holding your body weight first and then more advanced people, see how many you can do….good luck.
I LOVE food Challenges….try a cheese alternative today for you AND your kids. They won’t know the difference and neither will you. My favorite, Vegan Rella, dairy & soy free…it’s all about trying new things and choosing healthier options..investigate and find out what kinds you find and like..xoxo
Try using Almond Milk today as an alternative to cow’s milk. Almond milk is loaded with magnesium, potassium, and antioxidants like vitamin E. It is also lower in calories than cow’s milk and tastes really good…
Weekend Challenge!!! For 3 days in a row I want you to give me 50 push ups, 5 mile walk or jog, 100 sit ups, and 5 minutes QUIET meditation. Work the body this weekend AND the mind. Also, get a friend to do this with you this weekend as part of your Challenge.
Today’s Challenge is about discovering the importance of potassium in your diet. You need to get 2000mg a day. It acts as an electrolyte in the body and helps to regulate blood pressure and helps in the metabolism of sugar to glycogen. Get it from cantaloupe, apricots, bananas, lima beans to name a few.
Today I want you to go online and read about ALL the benefits of adding Blackstrap Molasses into your diet, like calcium, iron and a healthful sweetener. Try some today!!
Get in one serving of Omega-3 fatty acid (2-4 grams). You can get it from salmon, sardines, flaxseed, walnuts, some eggs, and other fortified foods like some cereals. Benefits are that it may help lower high blood pressure, lower cholesterol, and helps prevent heart disease.
Okay let’s all get back to work!!! Today’s Challenge, I want you to give me 3-5 miles on the treadmill, running or walking AND 7 miles on a stationary bike. We are BURNING CALORIES TODAY!!!!
I can’t believe how hard the Sleep Challenge was for everyone yesterday…so guess what, it is part of your Weekend Challenge. Also, you have the whole weekend to complete a 10K, which is 6.2 miles. Have fun.
