Exciting news that P90X is going DIGITAL! P90X on Demand is here.....FINALLY! I would have to say that P90X is definitely one of my favorite workouts hands down. I love all of them!

The Hidden Financial Benefits of Staying Healthy and Fit

Financial Benefits of Staying Healthy and Fit


I'm sure that most of you would agree that investing in your health and fitness can generate some pretty lucrative rewards.

I mean, we all know that exercise is good for the population right =), but what most people don't know is that it can have some financial benefits too!

Here are some some financial benefits to staying healthy and fit:

YOUR EMPLOYEE PAYCHECK
Let's talk about health care here. According to a study published in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, people who workout on a regular basis (at least 3 times per week) are more productive at work than those who don't. People who live the fitness lifestyle also miss fewer workdays, according to the same study. So it's a no brainer that the less work days that you miss, the more opportunity you have to earn income, as well as workplace advancement. Another study from from the Journal of Labor Research found that men who workout regularly can expect to make 6% more than their sedentary counterparts, on average. If you're a woman, the pay is even higher: Fit Chics can make 10% more on average!


 -  LIFESTYLE INCENTIVES FROM THE BOSS
If you're not already working out, that's ok, it doesn't have to cost that much to begin.

I know that some employers will pay some of their employees to workout as part of workout wellness initiatives. Check this out, IBM offers cash to their employees who meet certain fitness goals. And we all know Google right? Companies like Google and Zappos offer free fitness facilities to their employees so that they can save on the cost of gym memberships. If you are working under a company who doesn't currently offer wellness benefits, that may soon change with the Under the Affordable Care Act, which employers can receive grants to get one started.

Some employers have contracts with gyms to offer them discounted memberships, and some work with Personal Trainers or anyone in the fitness industry who can offer wellness activities. I have many friends who have asked me to create challenges for their office employees, and it's a win win! As a Beachbody Coach, I can benefit from helping a big group of people and get financially rewarded, while the company wins big by having happy and healthier employees who will perform better, which in turn will yield higher profits for their business.

If your workplace does not offer any fitness incentives, then you may want to check with your health insurance provider. Most health care insurers offer some type of fitness benefit for members. For example, United Healthcare offers reimbursements of $20 per month who use one of many participating gyms, while Blue Cross Blue Shield has worked out a deal fro $25 memberships at 8,000 gyms nationwide.

-  JUST GO FOR IT
On the other hand, skipping the gym might just be the biggest money saver! Why pay gym fees when you can workout at home or at the park? Some people enjoy the gym, I know I do, but I know that there are a bunch of people who prefer working out in the privacy of their own home. There are many places online that offer free workouts such as Grokker and BodyRock. But just remember, it's not all about the workout, it's more about the nutrition.

Beachbody on Demand is coming soon. The cool thing about this online total fitness program is that it will be available for anyone, anytime, and anywhere you have an internet connection. You can workout at home, the gym, the park and reap the rewards with saving on gym memberships, personal trainer fees, and gasoline =). On top of that, you will have a FREE Coach to help you along the way....ME! =) If you're close to some of your co-workers, you can even set up challenges with the people you work with, I can help you. Or maybe start a workplace running and walking club. Who knows, your boss may even reward you for it!


Stay active my friends!

8 Foods That Can Get You Stacked

8 Foods That Can Get You Stacked - Body Beast on Demand
 8 Foods That Can Get You Stacked!

Guys and "some girls" are always looking for ways to gain muscle mass. I mean, what guy out there  hasn't ever thought of getting STACKED! There's really no secret to gaining muscle mass naturally. It's pretty simple, if you stay consistent, lift heavy, and add these 8 ingredients to your nutrition on a weekly basis, you will soon to be stacked.  

8 FOODS THAT CAN GET YOU STACKED:

1. ALMONDS - Vitamin E is an antioxidant that can help prevent free-radical damage after heavy workouts, and almonds are hands down one of the best sources of alpha-tocopheral vitamin E. The less damage from free-radicals, the faster your muscles will recover and that's when your muscles grow.

2. EGGS - The protein in eggs has the highest biological value of any food including beef, but you have to eat the yolk. Other than just protein, eggs also have vitamin B12 which aids in fat breakdown and muscle contraction. Eggs are packed with other vitamins and minerals such as riboflavin, folate, B6, B12, D, and E, phosphorous, iron, and zinc.

3.  SALMON - It's packed with high-quality protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3's are known to decrease muscle-protein breakdown after your workout which improves recovery. Why is this important? It's quite simple, because in order to build muscle, you need to store new protein faster than it takes for your body to break down the old stuff. Plus, consuming Salmon reduces your risk of heart disease and diabetes, because who wants that anyways.

4.  YOGURT - Has one of the best combinations of protein and carbs for exercise recovery and muscle growth. It's recommended to buy the regular ones with fruit at the bottom, and not the sugar free ones. The extra carbs from the fruits will boost your blood levels of insulin, which is one of the ways to reducing post-exercise protein breakdown.

5.  BEEF - Beef is a major source of iron and zinc which are two crucial muscle-building nutrients. It's also the number one food source of creatine, which is your body's energy supply for pumping iron. For maximum muscle mass without all the unwanted calories, shoot for "rounds" or "loins".

6.  OLIVE OIL - Also known as "Liquid Energy", the monounsaturated fat in olive oil can act as an anticatabolicnutrient, which can prevent muscle breakdown by lowering levels of a sinister cellular protein called tumor necrosis factor-a...I know, BIG WORDS! The extra virgin variety is better because it has a higher level of vitamin E.

7.  COFFEE - Bottom line, fueling your workouts with caffeine will help you lift longer. On a recent study from Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, they found that men who drank 2 1/2 cups of coffee a few hours before an exercise test were able to sprint 9 percent longer than when they didn't drink any. And since sprinting and lifting are anaerobic exercises (requires no oxygen), a little jolt of some JOE can help you pump more reps. If you have a history of high-blood pressure, then skip this.

8.  WATER - Did you know that muscles are 80% water? Me either! Even a change of as little as 1% in body water can compromise your exercise performance and recovery. Just to make sure that you are not dehydrated throughout the day, try weighing yourself before and after your workouts, then drink 24 ounces of water for every pound lost. FYI, the more dehydrated you are, the slower your body uses protein to build muscle.

So there you have it. 8 Foods That Can Get You Stacked! If you are interested in joining my Body Beast Fitness Challenge and Accountability Group, message me! I'll be sure to help you with your muscle mass goals.
