    An alternate (and possibly better) use for weight vests

    Weight vests have been around for a while now. The main purpose of these vests is to add a extra weight when training and can really help to take your fitness to the next level, faster. I’ve only recently started using one when I train for exercises like push ups, pull ups, lunges and dead lifts. and have found huge benefits. There are a number of weighed vests on the market. I chose a cheaper one to start, just to see if I was keen to wear it regularly. This vests is made of

    What is a health coach?

    I bumped into a mate the other day. We spoke about family, a few things going around town, work he had on, his recent holiday overseas and he asked me “What have you been up to mate?” “Health coach” “What’s that?” he says Good question and is certainly one that I hear often. We have all heard of and had a bit to do with Doctors, Specialists, Acupuncturist and Optometrists but not so much health coaches. Do you remember the last time you went to your GP for whatever?

    What are three barriers that stops everyday people from getting a six pack?

    In short the three barriers as I see it… Wrong diet, Wrong exercises & Not being consistent. Let me explain…. I for one had this one wrong….1000’s of crunches and sit ups for years and years and yet nothing. So I did more and more, every time my stomach was screaming to stop, but still nothing, not a single ripple. So I just assumed this was out of my reach forever. That was until I learned how to do it….the Primal way. Firstly, start with a low carbohydrate, medium protein a

    What are some mind-blowing facts about exercise, fitness and working out?

    Myth 1. Grains are good for you. Myth 2. Exercise is good for weight loss Myth 3. Fat is bad for weight loss Grains are good for you.

    How much carbohydrates should I have a day?

    Living on a high carbohydrate diet of breads, pasta, biscuits, cakes and soft drinks, is fairly typical of the standard modern lifestyle and is in line with the “Australian Guide For Healthy Eating” recommendation of around 25-30% of our daily intake. This however puts you into a category of the Primal Carbohydrate Curve of 300 grams or more per day or the “Danger Zone” Living life for long periods eating this amount of highly processed carbohydrate results in weight gain and

    How your diet and lifestyle can change your genes and your health

    Illnesses and diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and arthritis can generally be traced back to the way our genes function and our modern high stressed lifestyle. By taking a different approach to this and living a primal lifestyle, one with a diet of low carb, medium protein, high healthy fat foods, moving regularly, a couple of strength sessions a week and the occasional sprint session a fortnight, good sleep, a little sun and con

Although this may sound strenuous and could be considered as such it is actually quite simple easy to do does not take all that long, can be done just about anywhere and can provide great strength training results when used sporadically.

    What to take on a mountain bike trip?

    There are quite a few things that I have on my “must do” bucket list. One of these is to “Go on a mountain bike holiday”. I’ve been on a swag of trips to ride before, but most of these have been to race or compete in an event. Every one of these has been great, filled with heaps of memories of break downs, get offs, near misses….or bizarre motel caretakers in southern highlands. But the ride on my bucket list is to go away…. and just ride. So when the chance came up to join m

    Taking responsibility for your actions

    When I look back most accidents I’ve had throughout my life I probably could have avoided them or at least not have been as severe – Split head and stitches after a builder dropped a window on me at school … I shouldn’t have been sitting under the window, Cracked vertebrae in my neck from bodyboarding… I shouldn’t have been surfing in shallow water, Torn knee at school playing “Red Rover Cross Over”…. I shouldn’t have tried to tackle my mate on the road, Getting air lifed to
