What is up my Lean Fit Healthy Peeps!

Super Bowl Sunday is finally out of the way. I don’t know about you, but I crushed some major calories. Wings, Prime Beef, chips and dip. Every once in a while I give myself permission to be human. I never feel guilty during times I bust the calorie bank (neither should YOU). Main thing is you get back on track the proper way. My goal this week is to trend low on calories and bump up cardio slightly.

However keep in mind that exercise and the amount of calories you consumed are closely related. What I mean by that is that they depend on each other. The worst thing I find people doing when they try to lose weight is go extremely low on calories and increase their exercise too much. In video below I elaborate on this topic and give you my thoughts on this topic.

There you have it folks, take home message is that you should never try to out work a bad diet. In addition focus on dialing in your calories to create a deficit for fat loss. Focus on resistance training for your muscles. Add age appropriate cardio in strategically for your heart, lungs, and your mind.

As always Make a Decision and Commitment to getting in the
BEST SHAPE OF YOUR LIFE

MAKE IT HAPPEN!

23 and 1/2 Hours | Simple Concept, Great Return on Investment

Wednesday, August 21, 2013 posted by ronmourra 12:08 pm

What is up my LFH Peeps,

While I was at the LFH Lab (doing some research) I stumbled upon a great YouTube video by Doctor Mike Evans. He eloquently translates many research papers in a White Board Video style presentation. Check out the clip and perhaps share it with a family member or friend.

It might just save a life….

There you have it folks, simple concept yet implications are profound. At the end of the day we all know that being active is important. The key is to add it frequently and aim for at least 30 minutes per day.

Find a fitness program that fits your goals, needs, and wants. Add in some walking when you can, take the stairs if you have the opportunity. Walk your Dog if you have one, Window Shopping at the mall, etc.

But always keep in mind, in order for the above to resonate with individuals and for true change to occur.

One Must….

Make a Decision and Commitment to Getting in the Best Shape of your Life

Make it Happen!

LFH Strategies | Working Around Injuries

Sunday, June 16, 2013 posted by ronmourra 5:16 pm

What is UP my LEAN FIT HEALTHY PEEPS!

Summer is just around the corner and many of us are starting to ramp up our workout routine. Whether you are a newbie, seasoned veteran, or simply getting back at the GYM, dealing with injuries/set backs are a part of the game.

A proper workout routine (with appropriate progressions) will reduce the likelihood for injuries. That being said it happens and in my case I had a peculiar injury that came out of the blue. Check out the video to find out more about the injury and my strategy to work around it and stay on track.

There you have it folks, real world strategies that are practical and easy to implement. I hope by sharing my LFH journey along with my struggles and set backs it can help you in some way, form or fashion if you find yourself in a similar situation. Remember you don’t have to re-invent the wheel. There is no MAGIC formula, no easy ROAD to Fitness SUCCESS.

I truly believe that it all starts with a few concepts that you will go back to time and time again when things get difficult. At the end of the day you have to:

1) MAKE A DECISION
2) MAKE A COMMITMENT
3) MAKE IT HAPPEN

MAKE IT A GREAT WEEK!

LFH Post Long Weekend Strategy

Tuesday, May 21, 2013 posted by ronmourra 3:17 am

What is Up my LFH Peeps!

Hope you all had a great weekend and for those in Canada an extra long weekend! With the summer just around the corner I have decided to try out a new strategy with my LFH clients and Boot Campers. Not a novel approach by any means, but just something that I think will help you stay on track vs sabotage and hinder your progress. Check out the short video and find out what my Post Long Weekend Strategy/Protocol is:

That is it, That is all, Simple yet effective Strategy to help you stay on track and hopefully keep you in the Fitness game long enough for it to be a habit. As Artistole once said:

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit”

I have never met Aristole before, but he seemed like he was a really really cool dude.

Make it a GREAT WEEK!
