Get Your Heart Pumping For Real!!

When you work your body out you definitely want results, otherwise fitness can be pretty heartbreaking.  You want to be truthful about your fitness journey and one area we lie to ourselves all of the time is the area of the actual workout itself.  We say, "I am pushing myself." or "That was a hard workout" or "Im sweating alot" . . . however if the results aren't happening in the form of weight loss then that is the BIG CLUE that you are lieing to yourself either about the food you are eating or the workout.  Let's say you are eating properly (every 3 hrs, 250-300 cal, of a carb fat and protein). However, you are not getting your heart rate into the fat burning zone, much less keeping it there for at least 30 minutes.  There are several types of zones.  Ranging from Moderate Activity (warm up) to VO2 (maximum effort athletic training) and somewhere in the middle is Weight Control (fitness and fat burning).  For weight loss you want your heart to remain in the Weight Control or Fat Burning zone for at least 30 minutes 5-6 days a week. Go to www.onlinecalculators.com , click below or simply refer to the chart below and identify your target heart rate for the FAT BURNING zone and get real with your finess so that you can achieve REAL and LASTING results.

Eat for blood sugar stablization.  We can show you how.

"Growing evidence suggests Alzheimer's disease is a metabolic disease and more experts and researchers are beginning to look at Alzheimer's as type 3 diabetes."

MonaVie's Exclusive View Scanner = Increased Value For Your Business

Randy Schroeder of MonaVie writes:

"Having now conducted three VIEW events here are my thoughts..

1: The VIEW will add incredible value to the Mona Vie business.

2: What got us here, will not get us there. Mona Vie has upped it's game. Measuring antioxidant values and providing a tangible solution to the problem demands that we as distributor leaders also up our game. Get dressed. Be professional.

3: Our future North American success is not about who joined us years ago, or even days ago. Our future success is about who will join us in the future.

4: When we simply introduce candidates to a business, we sell ourselves very very short. We owe it to our candidates and to ourselves to deliver the big picture. What exactly does it mean to have a "More Meaningful Life"? Here is what it means to me...

A: Spiritual Health.
B: Physical Health.
C: Relationship Health.
D: Skill Development
E: Character Development.
F: Financial Health.
G: Participation not just in a business, but becoming involved in a community of like minded people striving together for the common good
H: Becoming a community that shares of our abundance with those less fortunate. (You are online...looking at a computer screen. You likely have a home and probably have had a meal today. There are many millions of people less fortunate)

There is no logic to suggest that a person who is shown a "business" will see all of the possible benefits outlined above. MVP is the framework which transitions our "business" to a life experience.

Now....it is time to act."

Blast The Fat Fitness by Renita Brannan

You don't need a membership to a gym to get your body moving.  You need comfortable clothing, good shoes and a desire to be healthier.  Your fitness needs to be flexible.  For example:  my fitness is swimming 3 miles everyday . . . however everyday can't happen because I don't have access to a pool everyday.  So it is a must that I have a fitness plan to get my workout in where I am whenever I can.  This little powerhouse of a workout by Renita Brannan is the perfect workout to do at home, on the road, even at work.  Part of your daily fitness is blasting fat.  In other words, incorporating a workout that goes to work on blasting those fat lbs away.  Remember, if you are just starting, do this workout as best you can by pushing yourself a little and then a little more the next time. Soon, you will be able to complete the entire workout!!  Get your RVLute on and start Being Your Own Best Healthcare Plan.

Fat Blast Workout:
10 push-ups
20 jump squats (floor slaps)
30 dips
40 walk lunges w weights
50 jumping jacks w weighted bar
60 squats w weighted bar
70 mountain climbers
80 cross jabs w light dbells
90 high knees (weighted bar above head..optional)
100 high knee skips
Repeat 2 X through followed by Pilates abs/core and stretching!!
 
***If you don't know what each exercise is . . . go to www.youtube.com and search that exercise. There are plenty of videos that will show you what a proper lunge or jump squat is.

Add Value to Someone Else's Life!!

Helping others to have a better quality of life is such a big blessing to me!! Precious moment today of adding value to a precious life.  An elderly man, in good shape, who swims with a bunch of us came up to me with a huge smile and tears and said, "thank you for pushing me to get some swimmer fins.  My legs are stronger and now I can take my girlfriend dancing." . . . now that's a good day. :-) <3 p="p">
 

The Top Reason for Doctor Visits?

Renita Rhone Brannan posted on Facebook "75-90% of all Dr visits are stress related!" One response to that post is: "I manage two family practice clinics and this is the TRUTH. The other reasons are weight related.", Robin Raps Berger.  Stress can lead to weight gain as well.  A good fitness plan can help you manage stress physically and mentally.  Manage your body and your mind . . . don't let your body and mind manage you!!

Don't Wait for Doctor to Say, "lose the weight!"

Mark comes home to tell me that our real estate closer and precious friend told Mark her doctor told her she had to lose 15 lbs and would we help her . . . Please friends and family, don't wait for a trip to the doctor to finally get told, "lose the weight." Get Your RVLute ON and Be Your Own Best Healthcare Plan!!

A Pharm Life vs A Farm Life

A Pharm life goes like this: "I take aspirin for the headace caused by the Zyrtec I take for the hayfever I got from Relenza for the uneasy stomach from the Ritalin I take for the short attention span caused by the Scopederm Ts I take for the motion sickness I got from the Lomotil I take for the diarrhea caused by the Zenikal for the uncontolled weight gain from the Paxil I take for the anxiety from Zocor I take for my high cholesterol because exercise, a good diet, and regular chirpractic care are just too much trouble." O_o

Listen folks . . . eat clean.  No refined sugars or flours and get your daily fruits and veggies . . . MonaVie juices are a great way to do that and then buy seasonal fruits and veggies along with frozen (never canned) and give you body what it needs for healthy cell regeneration.  Those who live active lives and feed their bodies well and hydrate their bodies well are not living Pharm lives.  Be Your Own Best Healthcare Plan and make a lifestyle change away from a Pharm life to a Farm Life.

Find What Motivates You to Move . . . Quick!!


Get moving everyday for 30 minutes.  Don't wait to feel like moving . . . move and the feeling will follow!! A daily hit of athletic induced endorphins gives you the power to make better decisions, helps you be at peace and offsets stress. Now who doesn't want to function like that in their day?  :-)  

Likable vs Nice

"People equate being likable w being nice or being a pushover. I found there's a huge difference between being likable and being nice. Nice people don't tell you the truth, because they want to be nice. Likable people actually will tell you the truth, because that's what you need to hear." from the book Likeonomics . . . also remember, part of being likable IS being nice. You can't deliver truth w/o the receiver knowing you want what is best for them. :-)

MRFK Mobile Ready Food Kit for Keeping Blood Sugar Stable

In this video clip with Dr Oz, Mark MacDonald shares with you how to eat your meals throughout your day and also shares with you the importance of having your food with you in the form of an MRFK, Mobile Ready Food Kit and the kinds of foods to have with you so that you can stay on track to eat everyday.  Remember, you can also carry the RVL shakes and RVL HDH Protein 10 bars in your kit as well. 

Reshape Your Body, Pt 2 | The Dr. Oz Show

Eat in Three's to Lose Weight!! PFC: Protein Fat and Carb

Keeping your blood sugar stablized is key in being at your ideal weight and not be hungry or practice calorie restriction.  The science and sense behind getting your ideal weight? 

Eat a 250-350 calorie meal every 3 hours of a protein, a carb and fat.  This equates out to be 5-7 meals per day. The RVL shakes and bars are already designed to be a meal by themselves of proteins, carbs and fats and can be one to two of your meals.  And always keep the shakes and bars around when you cant get to the right foods. The rest of your meals need to be combinations of proteins, carbs, and fats. If you get hungry before 3 hours, eat an RVL Protein 10 peanut butter bar (delish)!

Use the below Nutritional Paramets Chart to guide you. 

Get your cardio up everyday for at least 30 minutes.  Take the stairs instead of elevator.  Walk instead of ride when close enough. Bike instead of drive if close enough, etc. Also

Protein: (40%) 25 grams

FB Status Update
By Dana Tarrant Tinley
 
Just another AMAZING testimony from Teresa Hardesty...."Here is our personal testimony with Monavie: At the time we started drinking the juice 4 1/2 years ago we had two little ones. They both were on multiple medications for allergies/asthma. Oral meds and breathing treatments with two meds as well. I was fed up with their health and the fact that they were not getting better. My youngest had a croupy cough that would not quit. I decided to put them back on the juice (you see we had them on it at one point but stopped due to "cost") and I kid you not they were off all meds and with in 24 hours their symptoms were cleared up. Now that I have added 2 more kiddos, they all drink the juice starting as young as 4 months old. Call it coincidence but since we have been drinking Monavie none of our children have had to take antibiotics. Now don't get me wrong, they have had a fever here and there or a mild cold but we just double up on the juice and they are good to go within a few days. It is worth every penny and no it isn't cheap but isn't $4 a day worth your health and your childrens? " When will you try it for your family?

Cancer Killers!!

 
"When your lifestyle is in alignment with good health and your body's defenses are on high alert, your internal atmosphere is too strong for any enemy to survive. When you're truly healthy, cancer doesn't have much of a chance to cross your borders and if it does it will rarely live."
