Fit for LIFE and Business at 55!

Hello Athletes and Warriors!
We are built for success inside and out. I have heard from many a successful entrepreneurs that they apply "Fitness Principles" to their business plans for max success. That means they devise a comprehensive plan, develop a non-negotiable start date, and then Go! Growing and getting better day-by-day, week-by-week, month-by-month, year-by-year, decade-by-decade and on for life.
If you have been struggling with your fitness results, take a cue from today's transformation and get your plan and Go!
-Nate

Fit for LIFE and Business at 55!

Busy Entrepreneur Belinda takes back her life at age 55

Fit for LIFE and Business - Fit over 50 Belinda

It’s hard for me to put together today’s transformation story without tears welling up in my eyes. This one really gets me because I had the chance to work with Belindain person here in Kansas City. This busy and successful entrepreneur had put herself and her health in last place for a long time. After a serious health scare, and with her 55th birthday coming up, she realized if she didn’t make some changes, she may not be around to even run her business. I knew Belinda was ready for change on her first day at the gym. As confident as this woman was in business though, she wasn’t confident in what she was physically capable of achieving. Yes, we had some physical obstacles and challenges to work around, but rather than focusing on the things that she couldn’t do, we focused on all the things that she CAN do. And guess what, that was a LOT. Initially, we set a modest goal of losing 20 pounds of body fat. This goal wasn’t about trying to look better (although that’s a side effect!), it was about getting her body and health to a better place. It was about helping her become stronger and to have more energy to function through her busy days. We also changed up her nutrition to get it in alignment with the fat loss goals. Belinda gave 110% with every session, and on her time outside the gym, she committed to changing her eating habits, and started doing the cardio that she was able to do. It didn’t take long to start seeing changes in her, and I don’t just mean physically. Within just a couple of weeks, Belinda had a sparkle in her eye. You could tell that she was beginning to believe in herself and her capability to achieve these new goals. As she got stronger on the outside, she became stronger on the inside too. She surpassed the 12 week goals that we set in just 8 weeks, so we just kept right on going! Rather than a 20 pound loss, she ended with a 36.5 pound loss, and nearly cut her body fat in half.

What was even greater than the scale losses was the day she let me know her doctor was taking her off her high blood pressure medication. Just amazing!! And then, the day she came to the gym and let me know she was going to do her first triathalon! Well, she did it. This past weekend on September 10, 2016, Micah and I were able to go out and watch her achieve this incredible goal. To see that smiling face cross the finish line was just beyond words. This new woman is not the same one who sat with me in an office back in April filled with doubts of if she would be successful. This new Belinda is a woman who KNOWS she will succeed at whatever she sets her mind to, she’s not afraid to go for it, and I can’t wait to see what she achieves next!!

Congratulations Belinda! I am just beyond proud of you. What a blessing it has been to be a part of this incredible journey with you. I can’t wait to see you continue to succeed with every goal that you set!

Belinda’s Story:

“When Health Takes a Back Seat to Business”

Back in November, 2015, I woke up one morning and honestly thought I was having a heart attack. My arms hurt, my heart was beating out of my chest, my eyes were puffy and swollen, and my head hurt. I took myself right away to see the doctor who informed me that both my blood pressure and resting heart rate were off the charts. I’d never had high blood pressure before, in fact it had always been low, and the racing heart rate was new too. He told me if I kept it up, I was a stroke waiting to happen. He got my attention – in trying to grow my business, I was actually killing myself.

I started on blood pressure meds which got things sort of under control, and confronted by shortening my life, decided I was going to whip myself into shape – no more excuses. The biggest excuse after running a business for 6 years at that point was that I simply didn’t have time.

At this pivotal moment, I realized that I didn’t have time not to.

I cut out all the things that were bad for me – salt, sugar, caffeine (oh yes, typical entrepreneur – would drink a pot of coffee in the morning, then switch to (a lot of) diet Coke in the afternoon), started to limit my lunch-time take-out habit (because I didn’t have time to plan, right?) and got up and walked every morning. I managed to lose 20lbs, but it took me 5 months, and I still didn’t feel good, or look well, and my heart rate and blood pressure were still nowhere close to where they needed to be.

A client nagged – I mean really nagged – and told me I needed to get in shape. When I say nagged, I mean that he cared enough about what was happening to me to help me see the light. Some time at the end of March, 2016, after going it alone for a bit, I decided that with a 55th Birthday coming up, I owed it to myself, to my family, and to my business family to make time to work on me – to be the best 55 year old I could be. So, after emailing Diana and telling her all my tales of woe, on April 19, 2016, I started my journey with Hitch Fit. I had a long way to go, but signed up for personal training with Diana and got to work. During the first meeting after weighing and measuring I was confronted with the terrible truth – that despite my efforts in previous months I was seriously overweight, body fat way up there, and had some pretty serious things to overcome like chronic arthritis and being so out of shape that just walking on a treadmill for a few minutes winded me. The phrase “hot mess” comes to mind.

Diana told me that she thought I could get my body fat down to 25%, and lose 20lbs. Being the independent one that I am, I let her know that I really didn’t think that was going to be possible in 12 weeks, but sure, if she felt I could then why not? I doubted myself – I was committed to making a difference in my own life – but I doubted myself.

And off we went. The first month was great, my strength started to increase, for the first time in my life I learned how to eat properly. Exercise became something I looked forward to and started competing against myself to try to improve. By the second month, I had met my first set of goals – so we set more. At the end of 12 weeks, I still felt that we had a way to go to being the best 55 year old I could be. I suddenly became addicted to fitness – and here I was, the business owner voted least likely to succeed in fitness before I met everyone at Hitch Fit. I kept going, adding 5 weeks to the transformation piece, and am thrilled with the results. I dropped 36.4 lbs and got the body fat to about 18.5%, and lost inches all over in the time I was with Hitch Fit – but that wasn’t the best part for me.

Everyone has different results, the one I’m proudest of isn’t the weight, or the reduction in body fat. The one I’m proudest of is that at age 55, I feel fit, healthy and feel like I could take on the world. I’m off blood pressure medication, I’ve continued to work with a trainer because I love it, I’ve increased my endurance in walking (can’t run because of my arthritis, but can walk REALLY fast), have taken up cycling, and am now taking swimming lessons. On September 10, 2016, I successfully completed a Triathlon – my first – and I couldn’t have even thought about doing that 6 months ago. I’m stronger, eat better than I ever have, can do things would never have been able to do and feel better than I have in years. The physical by-products are nice-to-haves, but what’s on the inside is so much more important.


If you’re thinking about taking on this journey yourself, I challenge you – what are you waiting for? Now I know what it’s done for me, I only wish I had found them sooner. My absolute heartfelt thanks go to Diana and Micah, and now Kevin in OP gets to put up with me. Hitch Fit changed my life. In fact, Hitch Fit gave me back my life and for that I am truly thankful.”

27 Fitness and Fat Loss Tips

Frankly Athletes and Warriors,
I have had it with with failed New Year's resolutions to get serious about your fitness. As many of you already know that fitness is a lifestyle for a lifetime. Not a fad that starts January 2, and fizzles out on February 8!.
I care too much about my peeps to be another fitness "Gooroo" who will lie to you about this being the "30lbs in 30 days" program or some other Bull.
If you have not started, begin today and resolve to stay in it for a lifetime. If you go towww.fitnessgenerator.com/ussportsradio and fill out the fitness profile form I can design and deliver your year round fitness and nutrition program that grows and develops with you over the years. So you never have to face that 'resolution monster" again.
The key word is "start" It's not now or never, its just now and the rest of your life! Let's go!
-Nate

It won't be long before its New Year's Day, and you have a clean slate.

I don't know if you are one to make New Year's Resolutions. particularly this far away from the New Year, or not, but either way you're probably thinking about how you can become fitter, healthier and happier than you are right now.

These 27 Fitness and Fat Loss Tips will get you on the right track for this New Year:
  1. Visualize the accomplishment of your goals each and every day. Experience the taste of success and feel that sweet satisfaction.
  2. Push the intensity of your workouts. Don't kill time, burn calories by maintaining a challenging intensity.
  3. Use smaller plates at home. This effortlessly reduces calorie intake and promotes weight loss.
  4. Build accountability into your workouts so that you resist the temptation to take days off. The best way to ensure accountability is to work with a personal trainer either one-on-one or in a group training setting.
  5. Believe in yourself. Know with conviction that you CAN accomplish your goals.
  6. Drink water throughout your day. Do this by carrying a water bottle and opting for water rather than calorie-filled beverages. This simple action is extremely beneficial.
  7. Maintain your metabolism by eating a healthy snack or meal every three hours. This food should be unprocessed, low in fat and high in fiber.
  8. Don't be afraid to ask for help.
  9. Incorporate High Intensity Interval Training into your cardio workouts by performing bursts of high intensity rather than exercising at a single steady pace.
  10. It's not about will-power, it's about want-power. You have to want it.
  11. Do not eat processed foods. These items are high in empty calories and contain a plethora of chemicals that are harmful to your health.
  12. Stop talking about losing weight. Start doing it.
  13. Fat contains twice the caloric density of carbohydrates and protein, so limit the amount that you consume. Fill your diet with lean protein and carbohydrates from plants and whole grains.
  14. Be wary of products that are labeled as ‘health food'. Always read the nutrition labels.
  15. Find a workout partner who is in better shape than you, or better yet work with a personal trainer to guarantee dramatic results.
  16. Make a habit out of reading nutrition labels. Avoid items that are high in fat and carbohydrates.
  17. Destroy negative self talk.
  18. Avoid the trap of high-calorie beverages after your workouts.
  19. Be consistent with your workouts. Exercise three to four times each week.
  20. Expect more of yourself.
  21. High fructose corn syrup should not be in your diet. It is high in calories and will quickly derail your weight loss efforts.
  22. Challenge your body with each workout. Use different weights, do different exercises and break through plateaus.
  23. Eat lots of whole plant foods. Vegetables, fruits and whole grains are filled with fiber and antioxidants, vital for your good health.
  24. Do your cardiovascular exercise after weight training to ensure more fat burn. Your stored sugars will be depleted during the weight training then your body will rely on fat stores to get you through the cardio workout.
  25. Set specific, measurable goals.
  26. Start each day with a healthy breakfast. This important meal should be a balance of carbohydrates, protein and fat to get your metabolism going strong.
  27. You deserve better...go get it.
After writing these tips, I realized how powerful and inspiring they are. Print this list and place it somewhere that you'll see often – this will keep you motivated and pumped up to accomplish your goals.

If your upcoming New Year's Resolution has to do with losing weight and getting into great shape (and whose isn't?) then guarantee your success by working with a fitness expert who can guide you to success.

I'd love to team up with you - together we will transform your body in 2010!

Where Did the Time Go?

The number one reason why people don't exercise is that they don't have time.


At least that's what they tell themselves .

I know we are all busy. Between getting to and from work, balancing responsibilities and having time for yourself, there's little left over for workouts.

With the holiday season fast approaching your busy schedule is sure to get even busier. There will be parties, shopping, decorating, cooking and family gatherings. It's no wonder that exercise quickly takes a backseat to holiday activities.

You don't have to succumb to weight gain this holiday season. Escape the time crunch excuse in three easy steps:

Step One: Schedule Your Workouts: You've heard this before, and it makes so much sense. If you treat your exercise time with the importance of a work meeting then you'd never skip a workout and you'd be in amazing shape.

While the scheduling concept is brilliant in its simplicity, you have to put it into practice to reap the benefits. Pull out your calendar and a pen. Don't laugh, I'm serious! Just do it. If you want to get into shape it starts with committing to a revised
schedule with a set exercise time.

Identify three 40-minute time slots and mark them on your calendar. That is when you'll exercise.

Remember this: if the thought that you should exercise this week is floating around in your head, but you haven't anchored it down to a specific time and date, then it will quickly disappear.

Step Two: Get the Most from Each Minute: The days of endless, mind numbing cardio are over. A great workout can take place in under an hour, when done correctly. The idea is to burn more calories each minute. This is done through short, intense bursts of exercise.

Use the following three tips to bring your routine up to the next level:
  1. Be Unstable: Use your entire body, and target your core, by performing exercises that engage stabilizing muscles. To do this use an exercise ball, a balance board, a balance disk, or you could simply stand on one leg.
  2. Add Resistance: The more resistance that you incorporate with your routine translates into higher intensity and more calories burned. Some ideas for adding resistance include: carrying dumbbells while doing lunges, wearing a weighted vest while walking or jogging, or putting a weight between your feet while doing leg raises.
  3. Use Intervals: Interval training is an amazing tool for creating short yet effective workouts. Don't worry, it's not complicated. Interval training is simply alternating between different short bursts of activity.

    Here's an example: Let's say you want to focus on your legs and abs and to also get an effective cardiovascular workout. This would be a great interval routine for your goals:
  • Lunge while curling dumbbells, 15-20 repetitions
  • 30 seconds of intense cardio: sprint, jump rope, or jumping jacks
  • Squat while pressing dumbbells overhead, 15-20 repetitions
  • 30 seconds of intense cardio: sprint, jump rope, or jumping jacks
  • Crunches on an exercise ball, 15-20 repetitions
  • 30 seconds of intense cardio: sprint, jump rope, or jumping jacks
  • Leg raises off the end of an exercise bench, 15-20 repetitions
Step Three: Twice the Results in Half the Time: What if I told you that I have a proven way to deliver twice the fitness results in half the time? It's simple really...

When you attempt to lose weight or meet a fitness goal on your own, the odds are stacked against you. Sure, you could do it over time – but it's a long and lonely road. A road lined with detours that threaten to undermine your progress.

When you start a program with me, you suddenly have the upper hand on weight loss. You have me in your corner, coaching you each step of the way, keeping you accountable to workouts and giving you that dose of encouragement went the going gets tough.

And I'll be the one congratulating you when your goal is met.

Call or email today to get started on a fitness program that will put exercise firmly on your calendar, and results squarely in your future.

Alayne’s Story:

“My battle with “weight creep” started in my early 40’s. I tried all methods of exercise and calorie restriction to control it. When this didn’t work, I was convinced it was hormonal and I just needed to get those hormones balanced to get things back to normal, so I started going to all kinds of doctors, having all kinds of tests done to figure out what needed to be fixed. One doctor told me that I could eat any kind of protein I wanted (hot dogs!?!), but that I had to cut out ALL carbs – vegetables and fruits included. The only time I could eat carbs was if I was going to exercise immediately afterwards to burn it off.

There is one time that I remember my weight actually responding to what I did – maybe after some hormone therapy – but otherwise, I felt like I was exercising all the time and/or counting every calorie going into my mouth with no results. Why put out all of this effort with what seemed like no reward? I would quickly get discouraged and give up whatever I was trying at the time. I was trying to do everything myself with no real plan or guidance.

Fast forward to my late 40’s: My weight was at an all‐time high and I had to keep buying new clothes to fit into. I felt uncomfortable in anything fitted and I didn’t like seeing pictures of myself. I knew I wasn’t very overweight, just very uncomfortable, and very much not in control of where my health was going. My cholesterol was high and I was heading towards insulin resistance/pre‐diabetes. I was always tired and very lethargic. I didn’t realize how inactive I actually was.

I started looking into Hitch Fit because a friend of mine had used the program and had fabulous results. As a matter of fact, she is now a personal trainer in their gym now. But even with Amy’s amazing results and incredible support, I was scared to make the commitment to purchasing a program. I’m trying to run a house, work full time and very involved in our church. Where was I going to fit in the exercise?

And although I’m not a very picky eater, the others in my house are. I barely have time to plan and make one meal at night – I did not want to make 2 different meals. I finally decided to give this program the chance I deserved and purchased the onlineLose Weight Feel Great program in February this year.

I found ways to fit the exercise in. I got up earlier each morning to get my cardio finished before work. I have to admit, at first I really struggled with the morning workouts and dreaded them. I am a night owl, not a morning person, and I was so out of shape. I couldn’t increase the resistance on my elliptical or go very fast or for very long. I knew the settings I had previously been able to use, and was nowhere near that any more. It was hard to not let this be discouraging, but I stuck with the plan. Perseverance is so important and I had the right mindset. After a couple of weeks, my body started catching up to my mind and I realized that I had so much more energy on the days that I did my cardio first thing. I started becoming a morning person. I even missed not doing cardio early on days that other responsibilities came first.

I consistently followed my plan, but I was still bit nervous doing my first “check‐in” measurements and pictures after four weeks. The scale weight hadn’t gone down much, so I wasn’t sure if I was really getting anywhere. When I saw the pictures and numbers, though, it gave me the encouragement to stick with the plan. I was down 3% off my starting body fat and could see progress in the pictures!

About 2 months into my plan, my husband and I took a tropical vacation. I decided I needed to try on my summer clothes before the trip to see what I needed to shop for. I was so excited when I pulled out last summer’s shorts and realized there was no way I could wear them anymore – they were WAY too big. I had a whole “new” wardrobe of clothes I had long given up on! Dresses, jeans, sleeveless shirts – so many cute things that I loved wearing again!

The vacation was a little difficult. I kept up with my workouts, but there were many food temptations. I’d like to be able to say I stayed completely with my eating plan, but I do lack some willpower. The good news was that once I cleaned up my eating immediately when we returned, everything got back on track quickly. My body’s ability to burn through calories was increasing. I was resetting my new normal.

Overall, I lost 13 pounds and reduced my body fat from 23 to 17%. I decreased my hips by 4 inches and my waist by 5. I’m no longer uncomfortable in fitted or sleeveless clothes and love the muscles that have developed with the strength exercises. (I laugh as I write that – when chatting online prior to purchasing my plan, Micah “LOL”d me when I said I didn’t want to build muscle, just tone. I know now why he laughed, but you’ve seen the pictures!) Our family recently vacationed in Colorado, and even though running was difficult at the high altitude, I was in shape for all of the hiking and biking activities we did.

Fit over 40 in Kansas City! Alayne got in shape at age 48 with Hitch Fit.

After I completed the Lose Weight Feel Great plan, I purchased a three month maintenance plan. I need the meal advice and I love the exercise guidance so that I don’t get complacent. I have truly altered my approach to foods and eliminated my sweet tooth (okay, maybe just tamed it). Sweets are now a treat rather than a staple in my diet. The most significant thing I realized through this journey is that I am in control of my health and that my age does not dictate my future.”

I don't need to sell you on this program. I want to share it with those who have gone through step one and are ready for step 2.

I have always had a love affair with food! I seem to associate events in my life with the meals that I have had. My story starts with the summer of 2012 when I completely lost all sort of will power. Just like many I was going through many things in my life and I was turning to food for comfort. I was dining at Church’s Chicken two or three times a week. I would consistently find myself getting a sausage croissant breakfast sandwich, a chocolate long john and a 44 oz. Coke for breakfast at QuikTrip at least twice a week. It all came to a head when I was planning for a business trip to Hawaii and realized that all my dress pants wouldn’t fit!!! I had to go and get some new ones before I left for the trip. I was devastated as the pants I had to buy where size 54.

Although I had been active trying to get in my 10,000 steps a day on my FitBit pedometer my company so generously outfitted me with, I was failing. I was out of control!

While I was in Hawaii for two weeks I promised to start getting in shape and set a goal to walk at least 10,000 steps a day while I was there. I walked everywhere over those next two weeks and was surprised by how many steps I actually logged. I walked over 165,000 steps and 85 miles! I thought I was on my way to a better me. Alas once I got home I was once again reintroduced to my daily life and once again fell back into eating to self-medicate.

Lucky for me around the October/November time frame I saw one of the guys I had grown up with being featured on HitchFit.com. Tim Smith was able to take off over 80 lbs. using the HitchFit system so I reached out to him to see if it might be something for me. I mean what do I have to lose other than the weight and if Tim did it surely I could do it to. I was really inspired by Tim’s story and decided on Cyber Monday in 2012 to sign up for the 36-week Lose Weight program.

I remember vividly the first day of the program. I weighed in at a whopping 378.6 lbs. The heaviest I have ever been. I was driven to succeed at this so I followed Micah’s directions to a T. I ate all my meals and snacks and was completely satisfied by the small meals I was having. My first workout, let’s just say that I don’t wish to ever have to work out at 378.6 lbs. again. The workout took me 3.5 hours to complete the entire work out. I remember coming home and promising my wife that I never wanted to work out at that weight ever again! From there I would make it a game to see how much time I could shave off my work out or how I could burn more calories in less time while doing cardio.



Another factor in my weight loss is that my job takes me all over the United States. It doesn’t help your waistline when you are constantly eating foods high in fat, sugar and salt from restaurants. In order for this to work I found myself booking hotels that had kitchens and workout facilities. On Sunday night, when I would arrive to my destination I would seek out a local grocery store and buy my food for the entire week. I thought when I first started the program the hardest time I would have would be on the road. As I found out it was actually easier being on the road as I had complete control of my schedule and my meals!

Where I had difficulty was at home. I have a wonderful supportive wife and daughter and was getting ready to welcome the newest member of our family in December. It wasn’t easy but I was able to drop the weight.

Although my journey is far from over I am thankful I saw Tim’s testimonial and signed up for HitchFit. I often remind myself how far I had come in those 36 weeks by taking two 40 lbs. dumbbells and walk around the gym with them. I can’t believe I had been carrying that extra weight for over 10 years. Now I am happier and healthier and looking forward to the next step in my journey. Thanks HitchFit for getting me back to a newer, healthier version of myself!

The King of All Exercises!

United-Games-728x90.pngGood morning Athletes and Warriors!
If you have ever trained with me in person or online you know at one point or another I have conveyed to you that the Barbell Squat and all of its cousins (lunges, dead lifts, etc.,) Are the most important exercises in your program. Why? Here's coach Joe and friends to give you the 'low down' (you'll get that pun from reading on in the article) On the Emperor of exercises.
-Nate


Squats have been called the "king of all exercises" for good reason.

Because they train a mass amount of tissue in a very time efficient manner.

But squats also have a bad rep for damaging your knees.

In this guest article by Coach Rippetoe, you'll learn the truth about squats.


How to Do a Perfect Squat
by Mark Rippetoe

"Squats are bad for the knees" is the biggest myth in weight training. You may have heard that full squats are bad for your back, too.

The correctly performed squat is a hips-dependent exercise. It doesn’t really stress the knees much at all.

And the correct position at the bottom of the squat does in fact load the back. Which is fine, because the squat is a back exercise too.

What's the correct bottom position of a squat? The hips are just below the level of the top of the knees, the shins are not quite vertical, and the feet and the thighs are aligned so that there is no twisting in the knees and ankles.

The back is at an angle that supports the load, and the hips are positioned to do most of the moving of the load.

In this position, the knees are barely involved. Both the knees and the hips have to bend in order to lower and raise the bar, but in the correctly performed squat the majority of the load is on the hips and back.

If this position is unsafe, toilets are in trouble.

When the hips are shoved back into a position that takes the load from the knees, another very important thing happens: The hamstrings are tightened.The hamstrings connect the back of the tibia to the hip, and therefore exert a backward tug on the knee.

This quite effectively counters the forward pull on the knee from the quadriceps.

But this protective effect takes place only if the hamstrings are tightened by sliding the hips back into the full squat position — it doesn’t occur if the knees stop above parallel, at 90 degrees.

If the back stays too vertical, the hips aren’t loaded, the knees are.

The hip joint is a robust stable structure that is capable of handling heavy loads without injury.

The muscles around the hips are the biggest muscles in the body, and they have the greatest potential to get stronger — if we load them correctly by making them work against the leverage generated with proper technique.

To load the hips, we must have a more horizontal back angle.

In the squat, the back functions as a solid segment, a force transmitter between the hips and legs and the barbell on the back.

It is held as a rigid stable segment by all the muscles of the trunk — the spinal erectors, the abdominal muscles, and all the muscle mass that surrounds and supports the spine.

Therefore, the squat is a back exercise too, and as the back muscles do their job of keeping the back rigid as the weight gradually increases over time, the squat gradually strengthens the back just as it gradually strengthens the hips and legs.

##

I've included a how-to video and some helpful tips.

Train hard and stay safe,

Coach Joe



P.S. If you do attempt the squat workout, start with no more than 95 pounds!

Flipping the Switch: Turn Your Motivation On

United-Games-728x90.pngHave you ever wondered how some people are able to maintain amazing bodies while you struggle with your weight?

They make it seem so easy to achieve and maintain results. What do they know that you don't? When you boil it down, the answer is quite simple.

The missing link between you and your ideal body is good old motivation.

A healthy dose of motivation coupled with determination will get you almost anything in life. So how do you know if you're genuinely motivated?
  • Motivation will tell you to get out of bed for an early workout.
  • Motivation will nag you to put down the doughnut.
  • Motivation makes passing on fries a reflex.
  • Motivation makes a sweat drenched workout exciting.
  • Motivation constantly reminds you why you do what you do.
If your motivation levels are lacking, read the following four steps to turn on your motivation.

Step #1: Pinpoint Your Motivator. 

Motivation stems from having a goal. What is your goal? Why do you want to get into great shape?

Once you uncover your personal motivator you'll find that motivation flows quickly your way.

Take a minute to really uncover the reason that you want to lose the weight. Don't say something vague like you want to 'Be thinner' or 'Look more attractive.' Dig deeper – there is a very specific motivator in your life, you simply need to uncover it.

Here are some possible motivators...
  • I want to have more energy to keep up with the kids.
  • I want to improve my health through weight loss to extend and improve my life.
  • I want to lose 15 pounds before my vacation.
  • I want to restore my confidence to wear sleeveless shirts.
  • I want to regain my figure to impress and attract my significant other.
Step #2: Make It Official.

When you write something down it suddenly feels official, doesn't it? Write down your motivator for getting into great shape, and post it where you will see it often - next to your alarm clock, on the bathroom mirror, or in your car.

Each time you see your written motivator take a moment to visualize yourself accomplishing your goal. Try to make the scene as clear in your mind as possible. This is a powerful tool for maintaining your focus and direction.

Step #3: Be Practical.

It's game plan time. You know what you want, and now you need to map out exactly how you'll achieve it. It is important to be practical in your planning, rather than throwing out ideas that you know you won't stick with.

With any weight loss goal it is important to 1) maintain a healthy low-calorie diet, and 2) participate in a consistent and challenging exercise program.

Plan a routine that will fit into your schedule and you'll be more likely to stick with it. Also choose an exercise program that you enjoy - don't force yourself to jog everyday if you hate jogging.

Step #4: Call For Backup. 

Enlist the support of your friends, family and co-workers. Tell everyone about your goal to lose weight and get fit, you'll be surprised how supportive most people will be. By being open about your goals you'll likely be an encouragement to others to make healthy changes in their own lives.

The most effective way to ensure that you meet your goal is to enlist my support, your personal trainer. Together we will identify what really motivates you. Together we will design a workout routine that fits into your schedule and into your life. And together we will see it through until your goal is met.

Call or email me today to get started on the program that will transform your life.

Build Muscle and Get Ripped

United-Games-300x250.pngSchool is fully in session and maybe you or someone you love is away or right at home while studying and preparing for all that life has to offer. Unfortunately it is often a time why fitness takes a back seat to studying and socializing. It is a known fact that healthier students are the more successful ones. Especially after their college years and as they enter the workforce. So share this email with a student that you care about.

Build Muscle and Get Ripped

The total period of the transformation is about 8 months, with 4 months of bulking and 4 months cutting.

Stats:

Initial Bulk Cutting

Waist 35.3 40 30.75

Biceps 13 16.40 15.15

Weight 173lbs 210 lbs 163lbs

Born and raised in India, I was very active throughout my childhood by participating in sports such as Basketball and Cricket. After moving to Canada in 2006, things changed and I was no longer able to keep up with the sports as I got busy with school, work and trying to adopt the new lifestyle. One day my cousin brother took me to his local gym along with him. Being a rookie and very weak, I couldn’t do much at the gym but I absolutely loved lifting whatever I could lift. I came home and started doing some research and created a workout plan for myself. I started working out but didn’t see much results as my diet was nowhere near to what I should be eating. One night I came across a transformation on bodybuilding.com and read about how Micah created an online plan for him including the workouts and the diet. After doing some more research about Hitchfit, I contacted Micah stating what my goals are and was surprised how quick Micah’s response was to discuss things further. I told Micah I wanted to get ripped but at the same time I don’t want to look skinny ripped. Micah advised me to do a bulking plan first followed by a cutting plan. I trusted Micah and started my first ever bulking plan. It was very hard in the beginning to keep up with all the diet and felt like throwing up sometimes due to the fact I was eating beef for the very first time. After few weeks, people started noticing the difference in my body, which motivated me to work even harder.

After finishing up the bulking phase, it was time to cut the fat and get shredded. But as we all know it’s easier said than done. I got very busy with my university and couldn’t keep up with the diet and workouts anymore and as a result, lost all my gains that I did through bulking. I even stopped contacting Micah as I was embarrassed. It took a lot of motivation but eventually I did the bulking plan for 3 months again and emailed Micah about my new measurements. To my surprise, even though I and Micah were not in contact for a long time, he replied right away congratulating me on finishing the bulking plan. I told him my new goals and Micah readily made changes to my old “Cutting” plan to adjust my new body weight and goals. I followed his advice and his diet plan religiously and got in the best shape of my life. I cannot thank Micah enough! Also I would like to mention, throughout the bulking and cutting phase Micah never insisted on crazy supplements or fat burners or any magic pills. The supplements suggested my Micah were very basic. People always asked what kind of magic pill I am on that I keep shredding and the answer was always the same i.e. good nutrition, good workout routines and cutting down all the negativity that prevents you from getting to your goals. People would laugh and make fun, but I kept going and now those same people ask me for tips.



photo 1 (8) copy

This journey wouldn’t have been possible without the support of my family. My mom and dad were very supportive in any decision I took regardless of the fact how crazy it might sound. (It’s very hard to not eat all the delicious Indian food and go on a diet where I was eating beef every day haha). My transformation motivated some of my close friends, and two of them actually got their custom plans from Micah and are currently working on their transformation. I might be in the best shape of my life, but this is not the end. I am finishing my Engineering degree next month, and thinking about competing very soon. For that I have already started bulking up again so I have enough muscle before I contact Micah for the Competition Prep Plan. Nothing comes easy, you have to work for it and Micah is always there if you are ready to put in the work.

Unleash the Power of Fiber

Micah-Diana-and-friend-hitchfit.jpg
Nate! What's Up With These (Ab) People?
Click Here To Find Out

For most people reckless snacking derails their healthy diet, leaving them frustrated and overweight.

Do you eat a healthy lunch only to succumb to the vending machine an hour later?

I've got good news for you, if you do.

With just a few adjustments to your diet, you can effortlessly kick your snacking habit to the curb.

You see, the urge to snack happens when your blood sugar levels drop—giving your body the message that you need more fuel. (Enter the vending machine.) This happens after eating meals that are low in fiber, low in calories, and high in sugar.

The solution?

Eat meals that are filled with fiber and you'll stabilize your blood sugar levels, and feel full longer.

The Case for High Fiber

Researchers have done their homework on fiber, and the results spell easy weight loss for all who listen. By consuming an extra 14 grams of fiber each day you can cut your calorie intake by a full 10 percent.

People who consume more fiber (as low as 20 grams per day) weigh an average of 8 pounds lighter than people who consume low fiber (closer to 10 grams per day).

There are two main reasons that high fiber leads to weight loss:
  1. Fiber fills you up and stabilizes blood sugar for hours. This tames your appetite and protects you from needless snacking.
  2. Foods that are high in fiber aren't as calorie dense. When you fill up on high fiber foods you eat just as much but take in fewer calories.
Breaking it Down

It's always easier to understand a concept like this when real life examples are given. So here's a review of a low fiber, high sugar diet that ‘Jane' was eating, and then we'll see the small changes made to increase her fiber content and stabilize blood sugar.
  • Breakfast: Jane would typically eat a packet of instant oatmeal made with low fat milk and topped with banana and brown sugar. On the way to work she would also grab a mocha or latte. 
  • Snack: Without fail by 10am Jane's stomach would growl, sending her to the vending machine. She would end up with a small bag of chips, crackers or candy to hold her over until lunch. 
  • Lunch: By noon Jane was starving again, and would inhale her packed lunch of a medium sized bagel with low fat cream cheese and deli slices, and a small container of yogurt. 
  • Snack: At 3pm Jane's appetite would soar and she would scavenge the office for a small snack to hold her over until dinner. She usually found part of a leftover pastry or cookies, and if all else failed she would once again turn to the vending machine. 
  • Dinner: Most nights Jane would make a dinner of chicken breast, instant rice and a small salad, some nights she would substitute pasta for the rice. 
  • Snack: Every night at 10pm Jane would find herself back in the kitchen in search of something sweet. Most often she would have a bowl of low fat ice cream or sorbet before going to bed.
Did you notice a trend in Jane's diet? While she kept her selections fairly low in fat, she hardly ate any fiber which left her battling hunger all day. Her meals were also very high in sugar, which caused her blood sugar levels to jump up and plunge down throughout the day.

Here's the revised version of Jane's meals:
  • Breakfast: Instead of the instant oatmeal Jane switched to using old fashion (intact) oats. She then topped it with broken walnut pieces and banana. Instead of drinking a high-sugar mocha or latte, she started drinking hot tea. 
  • Snack: Much to her surprise, 10am came and went without so much as a hunger pain. Jane kept her focus and worked through till lunch. 
  • Lunch: For lunch Jane had a cup of lentil soup, a slice of rye bread and a cup of steamed veggies. 
  • Snack: 3pm came and went, and again Jane didn't feel the need snack. On her way home she ate a small handful of almonds. 
  • Dinner: This meal didn't change much for Jane. Instead of instant rice she made brown or wild rice, and instead of white pasta she made whole wheat. She also added a vegetable dish to dinner, in addition to the salad. 
  • Snack: Most nights Jane skips her late night snack since she just doesn't feel hungry. On those nights that she does want a sweet treat she enjoys sliced fruit.
That didn't look hard, did it?

As you probably noticed, Jane's daily calories dropped dramatically after adding fiber to each meal. Also her percentage of calories from fat also dropped, since her snack foods were high in fat.

This means that Jane is effortlessly losing weight simply by consuming more fiber.

You can follow Jane's lead by evolving your diet to include higher levels of fiber.

To expedite your weight loss be sure to include a consistent and challenging exercise routine. I'm here to help with that - simply call or email today to get started.

21 Universal Rewards of Exercise

get-paid-to-play-and-share-728x90.gifBefore we get to today's article, on this day when we here in the United States and some around the Word remember reflect and miraculously gain strength from the tragic events of September 11, 2001; I am reminded of how so many people of all ages and walks of life joined gyms fitness centers, and dojos alike to be become bigger, stronger, faster, and better versions of themselves.
They came literally in droves after the terror attacks. Why?
Some experts stated that it was a need to gain power and feel a sense of power instead of helplessness. I believe it is something programmed into each of us by a much higher intelligence. When under stress and strain and even fear, we rush to become what we are meant to be. Strong, healthy, and able. I encourage you today, if you haven't already to strive to be the strongest, fastest, and healthiest version of you that you can be. That ticks off terror to no end.
-Nate


The number one reason that most people are out-of-shape is that they don't exercise enough.

I've often wished that I could give each and every one of you a personalized pep talk to get you up off the couch and into the gym, day after day. So here's my pep talk in bullet form - 21 rewards that you will gain from regular exercise.

Do yourself a favor and print this list and post it where you'll see it every day. When you need motivation or encouragement simply read over this list and feel your motivation soar.
  1. You'll reset your body: Exercise has been described as a giant reset button. A good workout will block appetite swings, improve your mood and even help you sleep.
  2. Your clothes will fit better: Consistent exercise will tone and tighten your body, causing your clothes to not only fit better but to also look nicer. Also exercise ensures that soon you'll be trading your clothes in for smaller sizes.
  3. You'll be less stressed: You have enough stress in your life - it's time for a break. A good workout invigorates your muscles, leaving you relaxed and less stressed.
  4. You'll have more energy: WebMD tallied research studies and concluded that 90% of them prove exercise increases energy levels in sedentary patients. Next time you feel fatigued, fight it will the most powerful tool available: exercise.
  5. You'll be stronger: Exercise improves muscle strength and endurance, two things that you use throughout each day. When you exercise consistently you'll be pleasantly surprised when difficult tasks begin to seem easy.
  6. You'll be less likely to binge: Exercise has a powerful anti-binge effect on the body. This is due in part by an increase in sensitivity to leptin, a protein hormone, which has an appetite-taming effect.
  7. You'll burn calories: You know that excess body fat is made up of stored and unused calories. Fight back by burning loads of calories with fat-blasting workouts.
  8. You'll be more confident: Who doesn't wish they walked and talked with more confidence? A consistent exercise program will do just that. As your body becomes more fit, watch as your confidence sky-rockets.
  9. You'll have fun: Believe it or not, exercise can be extremely enjoyable. Remember how fun it was to run around as a child? Tap into your inner child as you find a mode of exercise that gets you excited.
  10. You'll reduce your blood pressure: Exercise has been proven more effective than medication in reducing blood pressure to normal levels. A single workout has been shown to reduce blood pressure for the day and regular exercise reduces overall blood pressure in the long run.
  11. You'll lose the jiggles: Regular exercise tightens flabby arms, legs and waistlines. So wave goodbye to the jiggles with a solid exercise program.
  12. You'll increase insulin sensitivity: Researchers at Laval University in Quebec discovered that exercise improved insulin sensitivity dramatically. Peak after-meal insulin levels dropped by more than 20 percent after as little as 3 weeks of consistent exercise.
  13. You'll sleep better: Do you toss and turn for hours before falling asleep? Exercise is a powerful sleep aid. Your tired muscles encourage your body to quickly fall asleep so they can get their overnight repair work done.
  14. You'll lower your risk of heart disease: Regular exercise strengthens your heart and makes it more resilient against disease. A sedentary lifestyle is a major risk factor for heart disease, so rest assured that consistent exercise is your ally against disease.
  15. You'll feel great: Vigorous exercise releases natural endorphins (happy hormones) into your blood stream that dissolve pain and anxiety. You've probably heard of ‘runner's high', this can be achieved by any great workout.
  16. You'll lower your risk of diabetes: Studies show that exercising as little as half an hour each day can dramatically reduce your risk of diabetes. If you are at risk of diabetes, or already have diabetes, regular exercise is the most effective treatment for reversing the disease.
  17. You'll meet cool people: You could benefit from a group of new, energetic friends, right? Gyms, bootcamps, workout centers and even the jogging trail are all great places to connect with fun new friends.
  18. You'll improve your BMI: You know that maintaining a healthy BMI is key in disease prevention. Exercise is the best way to keep your BMI under control.
  19. You'll increase your endurance: Do you ever get out of breath when walking up stairs or through the mall? Regular exercise builds your endurance for everyday activities.
  20. Your doctor will be impressed: How many times has your doctor given you the lecture about losing weight and exercising more? Exercise regularly and get your MD off your back!
  21. You'll look amazing: Are you happy with the shape and size of your body? Regular exercise works wonders on your physique. Within a few weeks you'll see shape and tone in all the right places.
What are you waiting for? Lace up your shoes and get moving!
