[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]If you are an executive, entrepreneur, busy professional, competitive, and/or someone experiencing high levels of stress, today’s Energy Recharge video is for YOU!

A few weeks ago I was invited to speak to the top executives of a large international organization here in Atlanta. The presentation went well. I am passionate about speaking on topics of health/wellness/fitness. I left the room so freaking excited because I was confident I had made a difference.

Little I knew I was there to deliver a health wake-up message to a few attendees. Yeap!

You see…I am in a mission to transform people’s lives, to influence their choices so that they feel good in their clothes, have ample energy, and are physically and mentally strong. Yes, there are many ways I can do that (coaching, training, accountability, support, tools, assessments, etc). Ultimately, together, we get to increase the quality of health and longevity.

Let me ask you a few questions before you watch today’s video…

Are you physically active?

What ways do you challenge your muscles and mind?

Do you feel healthy and energetic without stimulants (caffeine, sugars, etc)?

Are you concerned about your quality of life as you age and/or retire?

Maintaining Your Fitness Plans In The New Year

Planning and research is required to remain focussed and maintain a healthy lifestyle. There are lots to consider when designing an exercise program but what’s more important is staying on the right track for a lifetime. That’s called a lifestyle change. Here are a few tips on keeping up with the program of your choice.

Start with a Personal Coach – This is most important for your fitness plans. A personal coach can help you with having the right goals mapped out from the start. Invest in your health and well-being.
Pace yourself – Don’t go all out and burn 1000 calories in the first workout. You’ll tire fast and give up when the muscle cramps kick in. It’s best to take it slow and increase the time and work out targets gradually.
Schedule it – It is a part of your life just like your work goals and targets. You can schedule reminders each day on the type of activities or goals to accomplish.
Be versatile – Doing the same type of exercise every day might become a bore and your muscles get use to it. Add a variety of physical activities you can incorporate to achieve your workout targets. Remember, if you do not enjoy what you’re doing (or eating), it is not sustainable.
Use technology – Phone apps, pedometers and various other gadgets can be used to measure your progress and keep you on the road to success.
Get support – Family and friends should be made aware of your goals and hold you accountable for achieving your targets.

There is a lot more to it. Yet, more is great but it means nothing until you GET STARTED.
