You may have noticed that I didn’t post the work outs I was doing while we were on vacation last week. (I wasn’t being lazy… I had committed to writing an article about weight loss and fat loss each day for various publications and chose not to do BOTH, that’s all!)
In a nutshell, I did [...]
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:

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!)
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 [...]
Before we left for our family vacation, a surprising number of people asked me some version of the same question: “You’re not STILL going to do all those healthy things while you’re on vacation… are you?!”
Each time I was asked, I had to laugh! What a funny thing to ask!
The more I’ve thought about that [...]
Recently, we presented one of the most important seminars we’ve ever had in our practice. It was titled, “10 Steps to Transform Your Health in 2010″.
We know that not everyone could make it to the presentation that night, so we’re bringing the presentation to YOU…
Now, you can download your own copy of the seminar!

As 2010 clicks along, I’m continuing with my plan to MOVE in a purposeful way every single day. What I mean by that is not just doing normal daily activities, like work, errands, household chores, etc. I mean intentionally moving in a way that meets my body’s requirements – providing an overall variety of movement [...]
Here we go… here’s the continuation of the last few days’ worth of work outs, for those of you taking notes!
Wednesday:
Morning spinal hygiene.
Went for a great 5 mile run! What made it great? The sun, the snow… and the wild-hair-in-my-buttocks that inspired me about a third of the way into the run to start doing [...]
When you adopt the Wellness Lifestyle and apply The Wellness Formula to your lifestyle choices, then your goal becomes BETTER HEALTH.
(If you’re not sure what The Wellness Formula is, request the free report on the www.DrMomOnline.com main page. Did I mention, it’s FREE?!)
Your goal is NOT: weight loss, dropping sizes, lowering blood pressure or cholesterol, [...]
Yes, I’m way off track with posting my work outs for you! No, I’m not off track with the work outs… thank goodness!
Since several of you have continued to ask for specifics of what I actually do (or maybe you’re just testing me!!), here’s part one of what the last week and a half has [...]
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 [...]
Here’s a work out I did a couple days ago – it was preceded by the early morning routine of “Spinal Hygiene” exercises (posture & proprioception), stretching, yoga and some calisthenics. After the work out I took the dog out for a short walk (about 15 minutes).
The work out:
20 squats on flat side of Bosu [...]
I’ve had a couple of good ‘official’ resistance training work outs this week, in addition to some energizing bursts of full body resistance moves during my morning routines of spinal hygiene and calisthenics.
In the mornings, along with stretching, cross-crawl patterns, proprioception-stimulating movements and postural corrective exercises, I’ve added some “big moves” like alternating squat kicks, [...]
Since my last cardio update here, I’ve gone for one longer run and a couple of walks with Guinness, King of all Dog Breaths.
Wednesday’s run was fantastic! Not because my pace would have qualified me for the Boston Marathon by any means! Nope, just because it was a gorgeous day and I was really, really [...]
Yesterday started out with the usual “spinal hygiene” exercises (posture and proprioception) as well as some brief calisthenics to wake my body and brain up! It’s about 10-20 minutes in the morning, depending on how much I do.
Later in the day I did a resistance training and “power moves” work out:
100 alternating squats with front [...]
Two days ago was a running day.
I’ve been getting a tad bored with the first mile stretch of my regular running route. It’s also the iciest and busiest little stretch of road – not a good combination right now. So, I decided to drive my car up to a more rural spot to begin my [...]
In the past week, I’ve had two work outs that were officially “resistance training” or “weight training” in nature.
On a daily basis, I’m starting each day with “P & P” exercises – posture and proprioceptive exercises – as well as a varying combination of calisthenics, abdominals work and yoga. Again, just a reminder that movement [...]
I know you’ve heard me say it before: Motion is a requirement for health. Our cells genetically require regular movement in order to express their optimal function.
Our ability to create health and prevent chronic illness depend upon us meeting our genetic requirements for motion, as well as nutrition and mindset/emotions.
This is the recipe for lifelong [...]
I don’t exactly make New Year’s Resolutions, per say. But, I DO look for opportunities throughout the year to challenge myself to get ‘better’. I feel a personal responsibility to myself to do this!! : )
Whether it’s New Year, back-to-school, planning for a vacation or a special event, or a new season around the corner, [...]
