Happy new year and hope you’re ready to make a strong start to the new year!
Sorry about the late posting but i picked up a really nasty virus myself on new year’s day it seems, and its only now i am recovering properly. First time i have had something like this for many years, and i have to say a big good riddance to it!
Anyway, this makes me realise the importance of getting back to proper food, putting enough nutrients into my body again and protecting myself against any future ailments that could be heading our way.
This is the role of food or should be anyway, protecting us against illness and disease, and this is why the nature of our food should be of paramount importance.
Once we get this right, then we should be thinking about energy and how we can get it. Put good food in every day and we should get plenty of energy.
Once we have energy, then this puts us in a good place to actually exercise!
When we get through a workout, then its down to food again to replace lost energy, and build our bodies back up after breaking down all that muscle tissue!
You can see why food has many roles to play in the whole cycle of energy and training, and without it things would be pretty impossible to achieve.
This is the important lesson to learn early on this year. No starving yourself, no diets that will put all the weight back on and more, no shake and bars only diets. How about nourishing yourself properly for a change and reaping the rewards this year in a big way!! Most people i train never go through this faddy time of year anymore, because they were put on a lifelong path a lot of years ago.
It’s all about being on a sustainable path and really putting yourself on a path for a lifetime!!!
I’m fired up again so lets get ready to work hard in 2013!!!
