Is this the famous lull after bank holiday or is it a starting point to another turning point in your life?

Are you regretting the end of summer or are you looking forward to the start of another exciting season?

Are you “barbecued out” or have you a craving for good lower fat and lower sugar foods?

Have you written of the summer or have you used it  as a springboard for success in the autumn and up to christmas?

These are all choices that you have and have had all summer! You can see how important that choices are, and even more important is making the right ones of course!!!

You can follow the right path or sort of do both. By that i mean you could be considered neither a healthy eater or a bad eater all the time, you could be considered neither fit or unfit, its this state of limbo that is never really satisfying and definitely never brings you any kind of lasting result!!!!

If you do go on the right path, then its very important from a mindset perspective. If you eat healthy and train hard, your mindset will be that of a fit individual, and therefore be very likely to make continuously good choices. This path is not always to keep to but you will be much more aware of the benefits constantly, because you will be “wearing your results”!!!

By this statement, i mean that whatever you put into your body, you will be showing off in terms of physical appearance. Follow the right guidance and you will look very good indeed. Only you can tell how you feel inside, so you will be the only one how good it feels to live a healthy lifestyle, and internally the benefits you receiver each and every day!!!

The end of the week is here and have you followed my tips on eating well from monday morning right through until now? If you have, chances are that you have performed well all week, you have dropped some body fat, you feel tighter, you are more cheerful and you have a lot to shout about. You can relax a bit tonight, have a meal you may not normally have and gradually relax as you get into the weekend.

Enjoy your sunday lunch and gradually ease back so you’re fired up to go again on monday.

Let me clarify  the first paragraph, this doesnt mean going mad all weekend eating as much junk as possible!!! “Easing up” doesn’t mean that, it means you can be a bit looser on your diet and it doesn’t mean drinking like a fool all weekend either!!! Nothing wrong with a drink, but there is plenty wrong with drinking flat out from friday evening right through until sunday night!!! So better to get that all sorted out because people interpret things differently from others.

Does that sound sustainable to you? I don’t think that lifestyle is so bad at all!!!

So monday until most of friday is very good eating patterns, saturday is fun too and have a bit of what you fancy, and sunday more of a relaxing day. This isnt killing yourself on some kind of spartan regime, this is achievable in my eyes and should enable you to drop body fat on a regular basis, perform well in your valuable workouts and really be one of the out-performers in life!!!

Your foundations are the difference between getting into shape without even thinking or worrying about it, or going through the horror and disappointment of yo-yo dieting, which MOST people unfortunately go through.

You will end up paying a fortune on getting into and out of shape in your lifetime. You don’t need to do that anymore surely?!!!! The information is here and its time to make it happen!!!

Astronomical bets are thrown on the stock market every day, and people are prepared to trade the fine margins between living a life of luxury and that of poverty.

If you were given the exact stock prices in advance, that would make you a millionnaire, surely you couldn’t go wrong could you? This is known as insider trading on the stock market and is illegal, but when it comes to health, i have given you all the pieces of a very simple jigsaw, yet a lot of people cannot complete that jigsaw!

Its not as easy as it seems of course, but if you know the path to ultimate health and fitness, and you know that many, many people have done it before, then whats the big deal?!!!!

The path to getting to this higher place of living by having a very healthy body and plenty of energy is always open and there is no time limit.

The biggest problem with most people is that they give themselves too unrealistic time periods to get into shape.

Have you noticed for example how many people give themselves just one month to get in shape, and if they don’t do it, they will never try again!!!!

Others give themsevles 2 weeks or even 2 months, but fail not only to an over-expectation but the failure of a genuine real world plan!

Even if you do get in shape in that one month or two months, then what happens then? Do you go out on a binge to celebrate, then go back to  your old way of eating? People usually forget that its old way of eating that caused the big problem in the first place!!! Guesswhat happens next? The weight goes back on, then you have a brainstorm and decide to lose the weight, only this time bigger and better and nothing’s going to stop you this time right?!!!!!

Does the term vicious circle sound about right?

Whatever your choices or plan, you have to make sure its sustainable to get the life long result you really want!!!

Hope the summer has been kind to you in terms of getting excellent results. This is always an ideal time to get results due to the great training conditions.

You have enough light in the mornings and nights, you have good temperatures and it doesn’t take too much time to get warm in your workout, meaning aches and strains are less likely.

If you have got the results you have been looking for, then fantastic!

If you haven’t, it may be time to reassess what you are doing, and whether actions are speaking louder than words or not?

People will always have up and down results, that’s what human nature and emotions are about, but some tend to have better results than others.

The ones who have the best results are the ones with the most efficient programmes, the most consistent eating plans, and they usually have a deep desire to stay in shape, and an appreciation for the taste of healthy foods, which I think is a key factor for success.

If you take sweetener’s with everything, then you’re not really giving your taste buds a chance to get used to fresh natural foods.

Its like saying you drink lots but only drink diet coke and coffee, that’s may keep you very awake and boost your performance temporarily, but its not going to bring long term success in your programme, water should always be your foundation and it’s the most important need for your body.

You can survive 8 weeks without food as has been proven by the hunger strikers, but you would be lucky to go further than 5-6 days without water!!!!

So if you’re not getting what you want out of your programme, maybe you haven’t accepted that you have to 100% live a healthy lifestyle, there are no shortcuts and no easy ways to get something very worthwhile in your life.

This is true in all fields so  lets get fired up and again and go after what you really want!

There are always myths and false statements out there, especially in the world of health and fitness, where marketing of products seems much more important than the quality of the product.

We should all know by now that one fitness product is not going to get us magically into shape.

Those magically designed powder based meals are not the long term answer, protein shakes have their place for sure, but not those shakes that you take all day every day, then you lose the weight, and then pile it all back on and more!!

You may have noticed by now that im much more of a natural foods type of guy.

Theres great news now on natural foods like never before.

Take natural yoghurt for example, which i now love and i used to hate it!!! The trend for you to select yoghurts now is to judge the product on how much fat the yoghurt as, this has been proven to be a big mistake. The manufacters get around this by stripping the fat out the product, and to make it taste much nicer, they replace it with more or less pure sugar!!! Therefore it suddenly becomes very well qualified as A LOW-FAT FOOD!!!! What a sham in terms of getting lean, sugar makes you fat full stop and too much makes you diabetic, another fact over time!!

This is hilarious surely or is it really disturbing more like?!!! Give me natural yoghurt anytime and here’s another fact for you after latest research.

If you eat natural yoghurt on a regular basis, then studies show that you lose be more successful on staying lean than eating regularly low fat yoghurts! Thats quite a story isn’t it? Haven’t we been duped into thinking low-fat yoghurts are some kind of god like product in the slimming terms, at least what the advertisements tell us?!! It must be right surely?!!!!

This is a big example of how advertisers and manufacters are trying to fool you, lie to you and strip of your hard earned cash,plus never deliver on their pledge to get you slimmer!! Don’t fall for it, keep it natural and at least you know what you have!!!!
