Looking young for less? What's the secret? As I am turning 44 very soon, my mind turns to what I have learned about health and beauty. Keep in mind that I have 2 children, one when I was in my early 20s and another one 2 years after the first picture was taken when I was 36. One of the ways that I have managed to maintain my appearance over the last 10 years is to exercise consistently. I have been able to do this by having a personal trainer (even through I am a personal trainer!!)   If I

As a fitness trainer in Ajax, I often think about the question... would you rather live well or live long? I recently conducted an online survey. Given a choice of living to the age of 25, but living a great life or living to 95 but having serious health problems, which would you choose. 98% of those who answered said that they would prefer to live to age 25. That is, most people would rather live a shorter great life. The most interesting aspect of this survey is that most of us do not have to make that choice. Advice

You can save on personal training by training three times a week. This seems to go against the conventional wisdom.

First of all, does it make sense to train three times a week? Some people have asked

Training Recovery Consider adding training recovery to your workout routine. Getting out the gym, on the trail or at the track is essential to moving towards improving your health and longevity. What many people don’t realize is that spending hours lifting, running or jumping every day might actually be detrimental. Sounds counter-intuitive, doesn’t it? Rest and recovery are an essential part of making progress in your workout routine. Many experts argue that the recovery is as important than the exercise itself. There are 3 types of recovery period the first type is immediate recovery , the second part type is

It is impossible to separate the influences of training vs nutrition on fitness. When considering overall fitness it is important to separate fitness into cardio and weight or resistance training.  These three operate with each other and influence each other. You will have to consider all of diet and caridio and weight training if you want to lose weight or gain muscle.  It is a three point solution: I would say that it is impossible to say which one is more important, but one or more may be more important depending on your fitness experience. Training vs Nutrition for the
