| BASICALLY: Your body has the ability to adapt to any stress it is put under. Sometimes for a short period of time, and sometimes for longer. The longer this is, the more wear/tear on your body. That is how we survive. Some great techniques have been developed to form the C.A.T. system and I put them to use in the Mission 1 Fitness program! |

| THE BEST WAY TO TOTAL FITNESS! |
So what does Mission 1 Fitness offer?
| There are 3 basic components to a fitness program: Nutrition, Conditioning, and Strength Training. These are the building blocks that will help you achieve your goals, with a long, healthy, happy life, and all three add to increasing your metabolism affecting the change to fitness. Nutrition: This is nothing more than the fuel you put in your mouth to run your body! Think about your car. If you put crappy, cheap gas in it, no matter what kind of vehicle you have, it will run...well, crappy and you'll get out of it, exactly what you put in it! Poor gas mileage is like poor nutrition, giving you poor performance. Giving your body the energy and building blocks it needs to sustain health is the idea you must keep in mind, not all those commercials telling you "fast and easy is just as good!" There are many reasons for the obesity problems of today. These include: Automation (where minimal effort is needed for everyday tasks), Computers/computer games (where most of the time is dedicated to sitting on your bottom using your fingers), Poor food quality (the push for more yield or quantity, has reduced the quality of our foods), High fat (which tastes good) fast food for "your busy life style" (this pushes to fill the hunger need but not the nutrition needs), Uncontrolled life style: WHO is in control of your life....your boss, your business, your family, your desire to always make more, and more money for that "better life style" you never get to enjoy! Or............... are YOU in control? There are many other reasons, but most lead right back to these. Isn't it about time for YOU to get back in control of your life? Otherwise, when you look at it .....is it really a life? It's time to do something about it! The cure? Planning meals, sharing the kitchen as a family area (like our parents or grandparents did), Grow your own foods, Make good-informed choices, If you must have "fast food" make it and freeze it for another day! Don't buy as much processed foods!! The processing takes out the good stuff, and even though the food industry tries to put it back in, they're failing, causing us to have substandard nutrition. Don't use saturated oils or fats because these ARE bad for you. But Olive oils are not! Don't use processed sugars or fake sugars. The "diet" sugar substitutes are actually making you eat more by increasing your appetite and are not processed by you body. I hate that commercial about the Corn syrup added to candy and pop cycles. The basis to that not being good for you because your body cannot process the high fructose corn syrup, making it bad or toxic for you. But, if you look at any candy...it's in everything! Why??? Because $$$$$$$$! It's cheaper, not better for you, just cheaper! And the agencies that are suppose to be protecting us, are asleep, letting it go on! I can't wait to see what they come up with next! OK, basically, you get the message...and the message is NOT that you have to spend more time, just that you need to do things smarter......that's all. There are specific techniques that, when applied, help increase weight loss, and can actually, help gain muscle for those with difficulty gaining. More later. Conditioning: Studies have shown that duration of exercise can be beneficial...to a point, depending on what type of exercise is done. Long term, intensive exercise is not beneficial to your body! As a mater of fact, it's detrimental. Your body, muscles, skeletal system, and breakdown/repair mechanisms are NOT designed to sustain long term intensive exercise. Think about it! Have you ever seen a 90 y/o marathon runner who started in his teens? The answer is no! Why? Because the body's systems are over loaded with this and while adapting for awhile, begin to breakdown. This includes the heart and lungs. Normals are as follows, but decrease with exercise! Ages: Breaths/min: Heart beats/min: Newborn - 30 - 80 100 - 160 1-10 y/o 20 - 40 70 - 120 10-Adult 8 - 25 60 - 100 So, if you are a 40 y/o adult, you would have taken 238,000,000 breaths and had 415,200,000 heart beats in your life time. Now, you add 2 hours aerobics or running/4 days a week/10 years. Running/120 BPM, 30 breaths/min = adding 1.5 million more breaths and pulse of 120/min = about 6 millions more heart beats. There is a better way not age you heart/lungs that much, because lets face it...they are pretty important! I am not advocating sitting on your couch! I'm saying we can cut this excess down to conditioning (not aerobics which is not a correct term anyway) for 20-30 minutes 3-4 times a week, using some simple techniques to prevent adaptation. This will give you more time to do what you want during the day AND save your lungs & heart some wear/tear without your body adapting to it! Save the tennis or other sports for fun, not exercise. This also helps you control your metabolism, weight and give you a feeling of well being. Muscle Strengthening: This area concerns the tissue that helps to support and move our skeletal system, and some internal structures. The purpose of strengthening in fitness is for attaining the support & motion, but the side effect, is that it also makes you more attractive to other people.....at least some. The strengthening gives your joints range-of-motion which helps with joint health. Strengthening has been taken to extremes and also passed on to others with tons of misinformation, mostly in gyms by other members, but also by some fly-by-night "professionals" or 6 week wonders. Those are the people that take a short (on-line or others) course and pass a certificate exam that really doesn't mean a whole lot...but sounds good! I have the experience of doing, along with going to med school, working in sports medicine & Orthopeadics. What Mission 1 Fitness does, is teach you to workout, agonist/antagonist groups so as to keep stability. For instance: working the Triceps and Biceps as a group, shoulders/upper back & Chest as a group, lower back & Abdomen as a group, and legs with Quads & Hamstrings as a group. This allows for symmetry and full range-of-motion. I use specific techniques here too, that prevent adaptation. I have tried just about every type of program in my 32+ years of doing this, and I can tell you that taking what works, and forgetting what doesn't has gotten this program to one like no other, with one big difference.......I can adapt techniques to a plan that will help you get to your goals, (not someone else's)! A lot of programs are designed to make money for the facility, not for the fitness of the client. I am committed to giving you the best result for your efforts, as I would give for myself. Muscle supports the body, where excess fat interferes and tears down life style and your health. I could go on all day, but I' think you get the idea! |
