Saturday, August 21st, 2010

What a beautiful, clear summer morning in Southern California. I want to say what’s up to the people in Redmond, Washington. You guys have been blowing up the site on a daily basis. I was just up in Vancouver, Washington a couple weeks ago and what a beautiful place. I have worked with a couple clients up in Washington using webex and talking on the phone live so if you have any questions or would like to set up a free consultation let me know. I look forward to hearing from you guys. Please keep spreading the word about Dunamis Fitnesss.

My Work-”Out” and Work-”In” Schedule

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

Good morning people. Alot of people ask what do I do for exercise. I definatley like to mix in “working-in” and “working-out”. Below is my last 7 days of activities. I like to stay functional in all the primal pattern movements(push, pull, twist, bend, lunge, squat, gait) which I will be covering in more detail later.

Monday-went surfing, used the TRX to cover the pulling primal pattern movement
Sunday-yoga for dummies, obliques, multifidus exercise
Saturday-yoga for dummies, stretch
Friday-20 minute jog. I like to get my heart rate up by taking less rest time between sets when I am functionally training but I do jog once a week.
Thursday-yoga for dummies
Wednesday-push-up variations, and I used my moms magazine holder as a weight to do 2 hand over head pushes to cover the pushing primal pattern movement
Tuesday-surf, stretch

The yoga I do is usually no longer then 15 minutes. It’s a good way for me to re-balance, strecth and strengthen at the same time.

Trash Your Microwave

Monday, August 16th, 2010

Time to throw out the microwave people. Did you know that a microwave:
1- alters fats, proteins and vitamins, making them more difficult to digest and assimilate so body gets little of no benefit and absorbs altered compounds that it cannot break down.

2-consistently eating microwaved foods shorts out electrical impulses in the brain, causing permanent brain damage, loss of memory, concentration, and emotional stability.

3-can shut down or alter hormone production, cause immune system deficiencies, decrease intelligence, and cause intestinal cancerous growths.

Mineral Needs

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

Did you know that calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body. Of the 2 or 3 pounds of calcium contained in the average body, 99% is located in the bones and teeth. Calcium is needed to form bones and teeth is also required for blood clotting, transmission of signals in nerve cells, and muscle contraction. The importance of calcium for preventing osteoporosis is probably its most well known role.

Do not get me started on the dangers of drinking ultra pasteurized milk or pasteurized milk along with homogenized, conventional milk that is full or steroids, hormones, antibiotics, and has damaged nutrients and fats. Got milk? No thanks. Here at Dunamis Fitness we drink raw milk from Organic Pastures of Claravale Farms. But as I have said many times it depends on your Metabolic Type and most people have gut issues and have trouble digesting milk which needs to be addressed first.

Alcohol Can Lead To Leaky Gut

Sunday, August 8th, 2010

Did you know that alcohol can cause damage to the stomach and lining of the small intestine and can cause “leaky gut syndrome”. Leaky gut syndrome results in the separation of tight junctions between the cells of the gut wall. Undigested or partially digested food particles may cross the gut wall, activating the immune system. This creates an inflammatory response.
