THE MEEK SHALL RULE THE EARTH

So many people think the meek means weak
people or "sheep".

Meek means to be in the learning state.

This is why the meek shall be the ones that
will dominate. Because they are in the subnitted
role of learning. And the only way to advance
yourself is to learn more than you knew yesterday.

I totally believe in mentors. I have many. So
should you. I have my Senior Pastor Ben Gibert as
mentor in my spritual growth. I have my mastermind
group I am paying for to learn from them how to run
the best women bootcamps possible. I am a mentor to
a man who is very successful in online marketing
and getting your business ranked by Google. I am a
mentor to a membership based site builder to learn
how to build a successful site for others to learn
from. I am mentored by a very successful financial
planner to grow the next stage of my successful life.

And here, I have many people being mentored by myself
and Brenda on how to achieve the ultimate healthy life
style. We do that at our women bootcamps, our personal
training, our seminars, and our consultations.

Ah, but I also have some of the most cutting edge Drs.
in the world that menor me on anti-aging and health.

So do not think you are too good to be meek. The meek
are those willing to learn and improve. And the only way
to help others is help your self first.

So as you see even though I am sought out in the health &
fitness and nutrition arena, I am searching for those that
can help me grow there and in other areas of my life.

This was a lesson for those meek enough to take counsel
and learn from someone who does the same.

SOMETHING I HAVE TO SHARE

Hey you all know me. I don't write this to blog
try and sell you products. I write this because
I have a passion for health and fitnessfor everyone.

Like you I will promote something I really like.
You may promote a movie you liked to your friends,
or a new restaurant you really enjoyed. I promote
in the health and fitness arena as this is my life.

If you have been with me you know I despise the
regular M.D.s out there. You know the ones who
spend 6 minutes with you after you wait on them
for 45 minutes past your appointment time.

I do refer people to one Dr. Mark Hertzberg in Novi.
He is cutting edge, and a real Dr. who wants health
for you, and actually practices what he preaches.

Well i bought a book for me and Brenda, as we deal with
alot of women. This book is full of Drs. like Dr.
Hertzberg. I do recomend this book to EVERYONE. Husbands
it for your wives, fathers for your daughters, women for
yourself or friends. It is that good.

If I am sold on this-you will be sold on it.

THEY JUST DON'T GET IT

The Governor of New York is going to tax soda pop
with sugar in it.

Hey maybe we should tax video games also,
I mean I think they contribute to the bad
health of our youth as much as pop. We could also
tax television over 5 hours a week. And you know
we could tax the internet like long distance phone,
charge by the minute. Tax skate boards (walking or
running is better), tax those crazy roller skate tennis
shoes.

I mean let's tax everything that adds to the bad health
and obesity of our country.

Come on, you cannot regulate bad choices, you need to
educate and instill the importance of good health.

Heck let's give parents a tax break for enrolling their
kids in an activity that contributes to their health.

Hire a trainer for you kid-get a tax break. Yea I
like that.

They really don't get it. People make bad choices,
and to try and control that from the government is
just plain crazy.

Trying to play Big Brother. How about getting rid of
art class and adding another gym class.

Obesity costs us all, in medical costs and insurance,
and in lives.

So maybe we should just tax people over 20% bodyfat!!!

WHAT WOULD YOU DO

Okay, just imagine if someone blessed
you with a grocery shopping spree up to
$1,000.00 worth of groceries!

Now what would you do with the money?
Would you run to the cake section and
get that New York style cheesecake?

Would you head to the cereal section and get
that frosted sugar flakes with graham cracker
sweet stuff?

How about heading over to the bakery section and
getting those warm apple turnovers....or maybe
that whole case of potato chips and don't forget
the dip!

Oh my gosh can't you just feel the excitement of the
choices.

Well, my wife and myself just had this happen to us.
We were blessed by a family in our church who wanted
to take us to the grocery store and have us fill our
freezer, fridge, and pantry. Can you say "Praise God".

I will tell you what we got: omega-3 eggs, brown rice,
green beans, diced tomatoes, skinless chicken breasts,
lean ground sirloin, salmon fillets, frozen vegetables,
onions, mustard, steaks, and tuna fish.

Well what would you buy?

This will tell you where you are at in your mind as far
as healthy eating goes. They asked us if we wanted this
or that. We said no-this is what we eat.

What would you do?

I will end with this. The reason we were blessed is due
to the Biblical principle or sowing and reaping.
We set up a food bank in our boot camps for needy families.
As we have sewn into families we were now in line to reap the
same---food. Praise God.

WII NOT SO FIT

Give me a break. Has it come to this
in the obesity capital of the world
that a video game is now the hottest
selling fitness thing going?

WII Fit is being advertised and bought
as the "fun" way to exercise. Well
first off when did exercise not become fun?

No, don't have your kids go outside and
actually play, have them stand on a small
white square and pretend to play.

Don't buy a $5.00 hula hoop and actually
play with it, pretend to do it on the white
square.

Hey how about having to stand on the square
and pretend to lunge so you don't have to
actually do it.

And hey you "men" do you need to do your push
ups off the white square? The floor too hard
on your hands?

Watch this video, made me crack up:



As a fitness professional seeing this being sold
it makes me crazy.

Hey buy a jump rope and a medicine ball and
get outside and get fit for real.

This is the fattest country in the world and
now we are going to lower the bar once again
and stand on a white square in front of the t.v.
and "get fit".

And tomorrow we will teach pigs how to fly.

GOTTA GIVE A SHOUT OUT

Had another session of the Better Life Fitness
Women Boot Camp tonight.

I goota tell you--these women impress the daylights
out of me.

Here it is less than 2 weeks before Christmas, most
people start neglecting their health and especially
their workouts this time of year.

You know, parties, shopping, vacations, family in
town, or just plain time to hibernate.

Well I am watching 2 groups of dedicated women,
one at 5:30 am and one at 6:30 pm just totally
kicking it.

They not only are seriuos about getting healthy,
they are getting a headstart on the New Years. Most
people gain an average of 8 pounds through the holidays.
These ladies are looking to lose 8 or more before the
New Year.

I take my hat off to them, they are awesome.

Ladies, you are impressing me and I am proud of
you and proud to be helping you reach your goals.

OPRAH'S PROBLEM

Oprah has gained her weight back and she
states she is "ashamed or herself".

How many of you can understand what she is
talking about?

Oprah, bless her heart, in my humble opinion
of a fitness expert with over 30 years experience
did what many do wrong.

She went on a "diet".

She said that she starved herself for 4 months on
a liquid protein diet and didn't eat a morsel of
food.

Determination and will power--yes. Smart and wise--
no.

As soon as she announced her weight loss she did
what comes naturally--she celebrated with eating
food and rewarding herself. The next day she could
not fit in the same pants she wore on her show!

You cannot go on a diet that is not a healthy eating
program that will allow you to eat real food from a
variety of food groups. How many times do people have
to jack up their health and actually gain back more
weight than they lost before they get this?

I have helped people lose thousands of pounds the
right way, and keep it off and have a healthy life.

Oprah was focused on the scale, toss that thing away.
Focus on strength, energy, and health. Gain muscle,
which controls your metabolism, eat healthy which gives
you energy, and live a healthy life.

Focus on those things and you will win long term.

If you really want to do this I am offering my Metabolism
Makeover Course in conjunction with the Better Life Fitness
Women Boot Camp in January for NO EXTRA CHARGE!!

This is a course I charge $400.00 for and always sell out.
So, unless you want to ride the same yo-yo Oprah did, get over to
www.betterlifefitnesscenter.com
and enroll in January's Women Boot camp, Michigan's Premier
Boot Camp for women only.

Looking forward to a healthy and prosperous 2009.

IT'S GROUNDHOG DAY IN MICHIGAN

Well, today is the official day of lay back
and get fat season.

In Michigan we have our first real snow today.
When we accumulate more than 1 inch of snow
on the ground it becomes the official day
that people turn into grounhogs and go into
hibernation until spring.

Excuses become the norm as to why they are:

Eating Bad----"Depressed and need to feel
like I did when grandma coddled me"

Not Working Out---"My joints hurt too much
in the cold weather", or

"I really don't like to go
out in the winter, so I'll just do something
at home"

Drinking---"Well I don't want to make everyone
else feel bad."

And my favorite for being just pure lazy---
"Well you know I have seasonal deficet disorder"

This might be why Michigan is the #1 city for the worst for
women's health.

Well, it doesn't have to be that way. We have 20 women coming
out at 5:30 in the morning and kicking butt at our boot
camps! And again at 6 at night.

You tell me who will be moaning about how they fee and look
come this spring.

Won't be the women I see over the next 3 months. They'll
be the ones the groundhogs will say "Well she is lucky"

Keeping it real.

IN YOUR FACE

Hey, I was told today I am too
"in your face" style of trainer!

Well, you know what I am.
And I like it that way.
And so should you.

Would you rather I coddle you
and tell you sweet things that
are warm and fuzzy and make you
feel good inside?

Or would you rather I get "in your face"
and push you to where you need to go
to get the results you want?

I thought you hired me to get you results.

There is not enough people like myself
if you ask me. I see way too much of people
stroking people and not telling them what they
really need to do.

If you want to maintain the status quo, hang
out with your grandma and eat some cookies and
milk.

And if that is what you want, don't hire me.

As always, I'm just keeping it real.
Only because I truly care.

Work, effort, and diligence are the signs
on the road to success.

Obviously the person who said I was their face
took a wrong turn.

NEISY NASH & CLEAN HOUSE

My wife loves the show "Clean House". The
show is hosted by Neisy Nash and spot lights
a different family who has major clutter
and mess going on in their house.

Then the crew goes in and works the problems
out and cleans the mess and the family is left
with a clean, organized, tight house.

This reminds me so much of what we do as personal
trainers, coaches, and consultants.

People come to us with a mess, some little, some
major. We help figure what the problem is, then we
help "clean" up the mess.

Some messes are a women wants to lose that last
10 pounds of fat from her last baby. Or a man needs
to lose 60 pounds and drop his cholesterol.

It is then our job to help them straighten out
their mess.

Just like in the show some people just don't want
to let go of some of the things that are causing
the mess. I saw one show where a couple had like
30 old computers, 40 old phone systems, and probably
50 old useless monitore just in one area of the mess.
They did not want to get rid of this crap for anything.

Well I had a new consultation the other day with a
obese women who was not going to give up her pasta
for anything.

Nope, she has eaten pasta all her life, her mother
ate pasta, and her grandma showed them how to make
the pasta.

So I told her she had 2 choices, and only one choice
that she could make would I work with her and help her
get healthy.

Praise God, she knew I was serious and there will be no
pasta until we get her weight under control.

Interesting though, she came to me for my expertise,
I recognized one of the problems, told her what she
had to do--and she then didn't want to listen to me.

Only when I threatened to take away my help, the thing
she needed the most, only then did she realize how big
of an issue she had.

Sometimes people just need to be shaken up and told the
truth before they are ready to make a move.

Well, this was more of a rant today than anything, as I
just sometimes shake my head at some of the messes I come
across.

TICK TOCK, TICK TOCK........

Well time is running out on you and
the goals you set for yourself last
New year's.

Don't let that happen againg this year.
You know what to do, there is no need
to wait until 1-1-2009 to get started
on getting your weight down, getting your
strength up, and overall just getting
healthier.

You have 4 weeks left in 2008. That is alot
of time to make changes and see results.

Most people go into the New Year 8 pounds
heavier, you have time to go into 2009
8 pounds lighter!!

Take the ball and run with it. Don't wait
for that magic moment when the clock strikes
12. What will really change for you? Make the
change now.

Get yourself a trainer, get enrolled in a boot
camp, get in a group class, ask for advice on
proper eating.

Make a goal right now to go into 2009 leaner,
stronger, healthier, and fitter than going out
of 2008.
