Here’s an article I recently wrote that describes the “right” kind of exercise to boost your metabolism and kick your fat loss up a few notches!
(ALL exercise is good, and we physiologically require a variety of motion. But, certain types of exercise are superior for fat loss.)
Here’s the link to the article:

Leading health & wellness experts have known for a LONG time that saturated fats are not inherently “bad”. You’d never know it though by listening to the constant spin fed to us by “diet dictocrats”! They tell us to limit, reduce or avoid red meats, butter, fat and so on. That has turned out to [...]

Here’s another example of what interval training might look like… bursts of speed (or panic, depending on your perspective!) followed by short rest periods.
This is THE best type of exercise to incorporate in order to shed maximum fat and drop excess pounds.
I always say that when we let kids play like kids and provide them [...]

Oops!
In my sheer glee from being on a real, live vacation with my family, I had what my kids would affectionately refer to as a
“brain toot”!
The other day I announced that my newest ebook and audio book, “The 7 Essential Keys to Shedding Toxic Fat & Unwanted Pounds”
has just been released.
You can check it out [...]

I always talk about the importance of moving your spine and all its surrounding tissues in order to fuel up your brain for health and happiness.
Sheesh! Just imagine how healthy and happy these young ladies must be! Lol!!
(Not to mention the nice abs, core strength and overall sleek physiques they have! Hula on, baby!)

Here’s an article I recently wrote that briefly explains how toxic choices we may unknowingly be making can directly sabotage our efforts to shed excess pounds of fat.
Once you understand the key component of fat loss that I describe in the article, you will finally have a much better chance of achieving optimal body composition!

Some of you are aware that I’ve been working on this project for the last couple of months. I’m excited to announce that my latest ebook and audio book, “The 7 Essential Keys to Shedding Toxic Fat & Unwanted Pounds” is ready to roll!
This is THE last weight loss solution you’ll ever need!
You can check [...]

Apparently, I have subconsciously adopted a “diet” strategy that keeps my family and me pretty darn healthy and without too many worries about weight gain.
I didn’t realize until a few days into vacation that, back home, I don’t each much junk because I DON’T BUY much junk. If it’s not right there in front of [...]

We’ve been blessed to be in Maui for a few days now. I am grateful for all the forces that united in order to make this happen for us!
I’ve been taking mental notes of all things health-related since our arrival, which is pretty par for the course with me! I take it all in: healthy [...]

Ok, Ok… so, I haven’t fully gotten back in the swing of things with posting here regularly. BUT, I have finished the fat loss book and I’ve recorded it!! It was a trade-off… hopefully, you understand!
(The book is called “The 7 Essential Keys to Shedding Toxic Fat and Unwanted Pounds”. It will be available VERY [...]

I’d like to apologize for not being as regular with my postings as usual in the past week or so.
I’ve been spending most of my “Dr. Mom focused time” on a book I’m hoping to complete within the next week ~ “7 Essential Keys to Shedding Toxic Fat and Unwanted Pounds… The Wellness Way!”
(By the [...]

Yesterday I had a great work out. No interruptions. Quick, focused and to the point.
The work out:
100 (quick) alternating squats/side kicks … my favorite “power” burst move these days!
30 alternating lunges onto Bosu ball with 2 x 35 lb. dumbbells
Abs – 40 pelvic lifts, lying on back and lifting lower body off floor with medicine [...]

On my last running day, I bundled up accordingly and headed out with the intention of a fairly predictable 4.5 – 5 mile run. It was very cold, but sunny… so I thought I’d be fine. When I came to the first unprotected clearing of trees, I was shocked by an incredible blast of arctic [...]

A few days ago I was “scheduled” to do a run. Apparently, at some point in the past few months, I’ve become a fair weather runner! I didn’t exactly realize I felt this way… in fact, I usually LIKE to get out and run in the muck! Not this particular day. It was raining hard [...]

This latest book (and its accompanying products) by one of my favorite Health Brainiacs, Mike Geary, has just launched!
You’ve heard me talk about Mike here before… I love what he has to say about nutrition, weight loss, fat burning foods, the truth about diets, fitness, exercise… love it! He’s a Certified Nutrition Specialist and a [...]

Yesterday was another “cardio day”. We were still at the hotel so I ended up in the hotel gym again before heading over to the seminar.
I did a 20-minute interval session on the treadmill: moderate-paced run for a couple of minutes, followed by running at levels 8 – 9 on the treadmill for a minute [...]

This is going back a few days…
Thursday’s work out almost didn’t happen. I spent the first half of the day packing up everything but the kitchen sink for our weekend away at a seminar… with kids and pets in tow! By the time I finished the packing, the laundry and the basic cleaning up, I [...]

Yesterday, I did an AWESOME work out… totally intense, quick and focused. And I’m feeling it in the “right” places quite a bit today! Always good feedback!
A good friend had reminded me of a particular type of work out that is centered around 20 seconds of super high intensity exercise, followed by 10 seconds of [...]

Our healthiest ancestors incorporated “aerobic” activity as a regular part of their daily lives. No running shoes. No gym memberships. No treadmills. No pedometers or GPS wrist units. Just healthy, active lifestyles!
Wellness experts agree that we should move like this every day – some form of continual movement, like walking, cycling, running, swimming, etc. We [...]

This is an article by respected nutrition specialist and fitness authority, Mike Geary. I love Mike’s stuff – he’s right on the money! Although the title of his article deals with 6-pack abs, the nutritional principles that he teaches are far more thorough and substantial than just aesthetic “fluff”!
Just a couple of things I’d like [...]
