Whats in Turkey, Looking Young, Improve my life, Irina Marchenkova Victoria, Victoria, Toronto, Ajax, Personal Trainer Pickering, Personal Trainer Whitby, Personal Trainer Oshawa, Personal Trainer, Fitness Trainer Ajax, WIO, Work it out, workitout, wowi

What's in Your Turkey? Every thanksgiving and Christmas we gather around with family and friends and typically talk and eat turkey. So what are we actually eating in turkey? Dark turkey meat typically contains more vitamins and minerals than white turkey meat but also more fat and calories. Pasture-raised turkeys typically have higher omega-3 content than factory-farmed turkeys. Removing the skin of a turkey also removes much of the fat content. Eating high protein food like mean helps you to feel satisfied and less hungry for longer.   Most of the fat in turkey is in the skin, so remove the skin for a leaner meal.

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

Save on Personal Training, Irina Marchenkova, Victoria, Toronto, Ajax, Pickering, Whitby, Oshawa, Personal Trainer

You can save on personal training by training three times a week. This seems to go against the conventional wisdom. I have heard it so many times "I can't afford to train 3 times a week, it is too expensive. When you take a closer look at the different scenarios, you will discover that it is at least the same cost, and most likely even less expensive for you to train three times a week in comparison to once or twice a week. First of all, does it make sense to train three times a week? Some people have asked

Three Meals, Irina Marchenkova, Victoria, Toronto, Ajax, Pickering, Whitby, Oshawa, Personal Trainer

Three Meals a day (NOT!) - Eat Smaller amounts of Food More Frequently.  Eating three meals a day is a recent development for us humans. It may seem very normal now, but the foundation of these eating habits has strange roots. The practice came from the European settlers to North American. They watched the indigenous people and determined that it was more important to have a timing of each meal. They saw that the indigenous people had what appeared to be unorganized eating habits. They generally ate with they were hungry. The indigenous people in North America had what would be
