How to Make this Healthy Breakfast:

* 1 cup of regular oats (not the quick kind)
* 1 scoop of whey protein powder
* 1 tbs Udos 3-6-9 oil
* 1 cup of 1% milk
* regular banana

Just mix it all up. I don’t cook the oats as I like to eat them raw. This mixes very well and tastes great. It’s fast, cheap and offers up some significant energy benefits and will keep you filled up for hours. Adjust the portions as necessary for your specific calorie needs or modify the ingredients to your preferences.

Here’s the estimated nutritional details for the healthy breakfast idea:

Calories: 743
Fats: 24g
Carbs: 97g
Protein: 38g

Note: Remember to adjust the portions as necessary for your specific calorie needs.

Are You on Facebook yet?

This isn’t another MySpace (although it is a type of social site). In the last few months I’ve been testing it out and sharing some things that I just couldn’t do otherwise thru email or blog posts. I’ve really seen an influx of fitness experts joining the social media sites and creating profiles, pages and groups to connect with other like-minded individuals.

I’ve created my profile over at Facebook and so far, I’ve been able to upload some great videos about healthy meals, what to do if you are injured and a little tip about water that not many people know. Plus I’ve got a bodybuilding group starting over there that I intend to keep community oriented and friendly so we can all share photos, links and ideas to help each other out. If you don’t have a Facebook account yet, you can get one at no charge at www.facebook.com. Once you have an account, be sure to…

I look forward to connecting with you there and serving you better!

I knew thirst could masquerade as hunger… one more reason to keep hydrated but I also heard that drinking cold or chilled water could boost your metabolism. Drinking cold or chilled water for the purpose of raising your metabolism is called, Water-Induced Thermogenesis research.

Apparently the colder water can cause a rise in metabolism and contribute to the increased energy expenditure. Researchers found that drinking a 16 ounce glass of cold water increased the metabolism of volunteers by as much as 24 percent over their normal metabolic rate, with this increase lasting as long as 90 minutes. The increase occurred within 10 min and reached a maximum after 30–40 min.

The slight increase in energy used is because of the energy used by your body to warm the water during digestion..

This means that a man who drinks an extra 50 ounces of cold water daily, in theory could burn an extra 17,500 calories annually!

The study author, Jens Jordan, M.D. and the other researches concluded that the thermogenic effect of water should be considered when estimating energy expenditure, particularly during weight loss programs.

How cold was the water in this study?

“About 40% of the thermogenic effect originated from warming the water from 22 to 37 C.”

Go have a cold one!

Weight training, weight lifting and bodybuilding all come with the greatest prize of them all. The chance of an extended life and a better quality of living. On the other, for those who are sloppy, don’t bother to learn anything about weight lifting or embark on a short-term quest to do a 300 workout without the slightest idea of their physical abilities, the same sport that offer the gift of better health, can give you a lifelong injury.

Let me tell you a few things you can do if you are injured.

“When a thing ceases to be a subject of controversy, it ceases to be a subject of interest.”

And on that note… this is one heck of an interesting look at Colon Cleansing.

Frankly, this had me in stitches and it’s a little Friday humor. I think these guys are serious but I can’t really see the co-workers I used to work with honestly doing this and being on conference calls and the computer. Can you?

No offense if you purchased one! I just thought the commercial for this was brilliant and quite funny. It’s called the Hawaii Chair.
