On Monday I had the great privilege of sharing some information about fitness and nutrition with some summer camp kids. These students were great and had lots of great questions.

We went over the best types of exercise and discussed the pro’s and cons of all exercise styles. Teaching them about Isometrics and Resistance training was fun and I hope they remember their form. When we went over body weight exercises, they were very interested in knowing that they could achieve such great results with
just their body weight. “You don’t need a gym?” That’s right you can take your workout anywhere!

You can take some great information away from this too! I shared with them that they could work out anywhere and that really opened there eyes. You should know that if you have floor space you have your gym. “But I don’t wanna do pushups!” that is fine, pack one resistance band and get busy! I know it maybe a little more complicated than that but it can be done. If you know a trainer (right here) they can usually give you some ideas for little of nothing when it comes to $$.

Discussing organic foods with them, and going over what raw, easily digestible foods were, the students looked a little puzzled. No worries though, we worked it out. It’s amazing to see these kids so receptive to eating healthy, they just lack the information. Someday I will change that, but for now we can make a conscious effort to share tips for healthy eating with our kids or our nieces and nephews.

Live it!

If you know this stuff please share it. What good is it if you are the healthiest of all? It’s life giving info and it needs to be shared. Just remember you can’t change anyone, I have to remind myself of this all the time. They have to want to change, this desire usually comes after they recognize that they are to blame for where they are. If you get this, then you can help a lot, just don’t be pushy!

Together we can help the world….Or something like that.
