 The foundation for success with health and fitness is built in large part with support from others. The bricks and mortar for building new relationships are there for the taking, but you have to build them.
-L o show you how simple it is to get results once you change your mindset and adjust your lifestyle, I conducted a little "before and after" experiment of my own. There is nothing complicated about what I did to achieve my results. |
| Out with the Old, in with the New
In order to train your body as a part of your new lifestyle, you have to re-train your brain to think about health and fitness in a new way. The old way of thinking does not have your health as the top priority. With the new way of thinking you have a clear and unwavering understanding that nothing could possibly be more important than your health. The old way of thinking tries to come up with excuses to avoid exercise because exercise is work and who wants more work. |

 According to the President's Council on Physical fitness and Sports, a balanced physical fitness program incorporates the following elements:6
Warm up: Begin gradually. Start with 5 to 10 minutes of basic warm-up exercises, which can include gentle stretching or a short, slow walk.
Cardiorespiratory fitness: Endurance athletes, such as long-distance runners or swimmers, have the stamina for their physically demanding sports because they have good cardiorespiratory fitness. |

| To the entire team at 24 Hour fitness who supported me during our incredible international run.
More specifically to the final creation of this book, I thank my first and last line editors and part of my research team from Red Pencil Editing, Erika Geiss and Nina Welding, with whom I worked for over a year to make this book a reality. Thanks to my designer, Jerry Jodice who worked diligently on the creation of my book, Web site and Internet platform for the Fit Advocate. |
| Treadmills
If you enjoy running and do not have any back, knee, ankle or hip problems, the treadmill is still the most popular piece of cardio equipment on the market. The problem with running is the high-impact effect that will ultimately create wear and tear on your joints and connective tissue. When purchasing a treadmill there are many features you need to compare before you can make an informed decision. Look for at least 2.0 continuous horsepower (CHP), which is the power of the motor on a continuous basis, not just the maximum power at any one point in time. |

 American research found that when exposure to sunlight was added to fitness programs, subjects had a 19 percent increase in performance as measured by physical fitness tests. In addition, those exposed to UV light had 50 percent fewer incidences of colds than those who weren't. Their immune systems were maintained at a high level of efficiency. Also, children who received extra UV light during wintertime had a marked increase in physical fitness. Taking a vacation to a sunny locale, for example, can help balance the immune system during wintertime. |

| When you see an advertisement that offers fast results that do not seem possible, just stop and remember what I have said before — if it sounds too good to be true, it is.

 After all, as McElroy and Townsend point out, "It is only the phenotypic characteristics that give some advantage of degree of Darwinian fitness that are subject to selective action."6
At first glance, the sickle cell anemia trait appears to provide Afro-Americans with the very reverse of Darwinian fitness. After all, those with this genetic disorder tend to die in adolescence. Even if they don't, they are usually underweight, slow to develop, and often sick. |

 The net result is that these simple, lightweight, inexpensive rubber resistance bands can help you maximize your body's detoxification at the cellular level (not to mention burn off fat, which releases toxins, while increasing lean muscle mass and improving your overall fitness).
You can purchase exercise resistance bands at many fitness and sporting goods stores, as well as online (see the Resource Directory for leads). Most bands will come with instructions and a basic program for you to follow. |

 Researchers have found that brisk walking (fifteen to thirty minutes a day, three times a week) can improve cardiovascular fitness, which can result in increased function in certain regions of the brain. Stay within a relative range of comfort, and find activities that you enjoy—not ones that you merely endure.
Whatever the case, multiple studies have proven that physical fitness in older adults is associated with decreased incidence of mortality, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, depression, falls, and disability. |

 An important equation in exercise is "Exercise plus rest equals fitness." In other words, it takes both exercise and adequate rest to build fitness. Either alone will not do it. Often beginner exercisers will sacrifice sleep time to get up and exercise. Chronic fatigue may result, and the whole purpose of exercise—to feel better—is negated. It's important to get both rest and exercise.
9. Exercise technique. Various aerobic activities require special techniques to avoid injury. Flexibility exercises demand stretching below the pain threshold. |

| Cardiorespiratory fitness: Endurance athletes, such as long-distance runners or swimmers, have the stamina for their physically demanding sports because they have good cardiorespiratory fitness. Their heart and lungs are able to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the tissues and remove wastes over sustained periods of activity. After you have warmed up your muscles and are breathing more deeply, begin your activity and gradually pick up the pace. This may mean moving from a slow walk to a brisker pace or increasing the speed on a treadmill. |

 Don't rush into it, either: you should build up your fitness gradually. Do not over-extend yourself while exercising. If you feel strained, tired or uncomfortable, review your programme, cut out the ones that are too difficult at the moment and lessen the number of times you perform an exercise until you can build your fitness to an improved level. And, of course, don't push yourself to a point where you bring on an asthma attack.
A Daily Exercise Programme

Brewer's Yeast
In the old days when the only people who ate yogurt or organic foods were known as "health nuts," before gyms became known as fitness facilities, and before every supermarket had a natural foods department with a dizzying array of energy bars, there were only a few supplements and powders that fitness enthusiasts used on a regular basis. One of them was brewer's yeast. |

 Chiropractic Adjustment
Chiropractic is a drug-free, non-surgical science that focuses on total body wellness including fitness, nutrition, and psychology. Its objective is to restore efficient energy flow in the body. When people think of chiropractic treatment, most think "back pain relief," but that is only a part of what chiropractic focuses on.
The muscular structure that holds our spines and other body parts in proper alignment can become weakened due to various stresses, improper nutrition, and lack of fitness. |

 Fitness and health are not the same. fitness is the ability to perform athletic feats. Health is a state of overall well-being, excellent digestion and vibrant aliveness. Many professional athletes have excellent fitness, but poor health. This is why we often see some former athletes ending up as physical wrecks after illustrious careers.
Daily exercise and stretching are as essential to excellent health as diet. Exercise and stretching move the lymph fluid and elevate the immune system. |

| The Amazing Sunlight/Exercise Combination
Sunlight and exercise each seem to have excellent health and fitness benefits, but when used together, the effects are multiplied. Tuberculosis patients who are being treated with sunlight therapy alone (regular exposure to sunlight) experience a significant increase in muscle tone with very little fat, even if they don't exercise. The same happens to a person who is on a regular fitness program. But if sun exposure and exercise are combined, muscular tone and muscular strength increase much more than if either one is used alone. |

 Experimental examination of the fitness consequences of anthocyanin structural and regulatory gene LOF in Ipomoea purpurea supports the hypothesis that structural gene mutants that produce white flowers experience substantially greater negative pleiotropy than regulatory mutants. In natural populations of this species, mutations at two different loci (A and W) produce very similar white-flower phenotypes (Ennos and Clegg, 1983; Epperson and Clegg, 1987). |
