Well….. There you have it…..  Bec has finally succumbed and completed her first personal training session with Jeff, one of our teachers here who runs his own personal training studio.  I know, it’s a bit of a shock for all involved, but it’s good to see that she is getting serious about the upcoming wedding and future lifestyle change.  I decided to have a chat with her after her session to see how things went.

Previously, Bec has not been a very active person with not much interest in participating in formal exercise.  She has been getting into a little bit of Wii Fit to increase her activity levels and start towards the ultimate goal…..  The Wedding Dress!  Now, she has set herself a realistic goal of 6 months to achieve this result and needs to ‘up the ante’ a little.  Hence the training sessions with Jeff.

Today’s session was the first. It lasted for 30 minutes and the session focused on the chest muscles.  Bec chose Jeff as her trainer due to their working relationship and also because she has heard remarkable things about his ability to assist people in achieving their results.  The exercises that they completed were: Bench Press, Flyes, Pec Deck and Vertical Chest Press.  While Bec was training, she said she felt fantastic but complained the entire session as Jeff was making her hurt.  A sign of a good training session!!! 

The interesting thing about the training session for Bec is that through all the complaining, the pain and the ‘jelly like’ feeling afterwards, she is ready, willing and able to go back and do it all again.  Well done Jeff; Bec is looking forward to her next session!

Our sample Online course has gone live and we are excited about gaining some feedback from people interested in having a look at a unique and exciting way of learning health and fitness theory.  Go to www.onfit.com.au and follow the links to our sample course.  Once you’ve had a play around and gone through both sample courses, jump back here and complete the poll for us.  We’ll really enjoy hearing your thoughts on the course.

Why Do We Need To Drink Water?

Water is the most important thing we put into our body!! You could live for 3 weeks without food, not a good idea!! But you could only live for 3 days without fluid, even worst idea!! Water makes up 2/3 of our bodies, brain cells are 80-90% fluid and muscle cells are 60-70% fluid.

Water is involved in nearly every body process including:

  • Transporting and carrying nutrients between cells in the body
  • Exchanging oxygen we breathe in with carbon dioxide
  • Excretion of waste products in our urine

 Water keeps your skin healthy and helps reduce wrinkles!!

Water helps reduce your chances of a headache or helps get rid of a headache!!!

How much water do we need?

The simple recommendation is… “ More than your drinking now”

The “scientific” recommendation is… 1 litre of fluid for every 25 kilograms of body weight and 1 litre extra for every hour of exercise!!

We lose at least 1.5 litres everyday through our urine, sweat, our lungs and through skin. When we exercise or in a warmer climate this then increases dramatically!!

It is better to hydrate the body progressively during the day then tyring to re-hydrate it once it has already become dehydrated. As a general rule if you are thirsty and you have dry lips then you are already dehydrated.

Thirsty means you are already de-hydrated!!

Our water intake comes from

  • Water
  • Juice
  • Soft Drink
  • Cordial
  • Milk
  • Fruit and Vegetables
  • Tea and Coffee

Water is by far… THE BEST source of FLUID!!!
