How My Gym Workout Went in 2011

December 31st, 2011

Wow! I can actually go into a new year without wondering if I should make a new years resolution to workout again. I have been working out over at Tony Cruz XTC Fitness & Sports the last few months and I have seen some dramatic results.

For instance, when I started working out there I weighed 195 pounds but as of today I weigh 172 pounds all from doing the kick boxing group exercise class they have there. I learned a few fundamental basic fighting skills through repetitive action on the kicking bag. I have increased my cardiovascular system through running the undulated indoor track during the 45 minute kick boxing class. I have also managed to tone up quite a bit and put on some muscle pounds.

I am a male and so I managed to lose a lot of weight because most of it was a lot of pure extra body fat on top of muscle. For women you will not always see a quick reduction in weight in the beginning as you are building a lot of muscle while at the same time shedding pounds. This class is just as much for women as it is for men and often times there are more women in my class than men.

What is so cool about XTC is that you get to see a full spectrum of fitness levels working out with you. Everyone pitches in to encourage and lift up those around them. You only workout as much as your body can handle but over time you will find that you are able to push a bit more each time and will eventually be able to accomplish everything the instructor asks the group to do.

I personally must still cheat on some exercises as I really push myself about as far as I can on each exercise and so many times I have to simply quit before the instructor tells us to stop.

If you are like many of us who will be making a new years resolution regarding fitness and weight loss in Tyler Texas I highly recommend trying out Tony Cruz XTC Fitness & Sports. They have over 80 group exercise classes a week which are sure to keep you on track with your goals. The best thing about these classes is that they are free with your gym membership.

Rib Masters is stinking good dudes

Rib Masters in Whitehouse TX

Rib Masters

803 State Highway 110 N # A
Whitehouse, TX 75791-3033
(903) 839-0530

I ate at Rib Masters today which is a barbecue restaurant in Whitehouse Texas that of course specializes in none other then ribs.

Their ribs are considered to be the best in East Texas by many fatties I know in Tyler.

I am not making fun as this place is getting me pretty fat too so I may soon be one as well.

If you do decide to eat ribs at Rib Masters on a weekly basis like me I recommend getting on a cardio exercise routine.

If you don’t excercise as you eat these juicy sweet delicous ribs you will pay the price as your jeans go up a size or two and your family keeps asking if you have gained some weight.

This wasn’t intended to be a weight loss article but anyway get the ribs when you go here.

They offer sliced and chopped beef sandwiches as well as beef BBQ baked potatoes but there called Rib Masters people so you know you are going to get the good stuff if you order their ribs.

These things are deadly so once a week is about all you should go to this place so you can live past 40.

Under the tongue or injection regarding HCG Weight Loss Hormone?

January 29th, 2011

HCG Shots vs Under TongueIf you have done any research into using the hcg hormone as a weight loss option then you know that there are two recommendations for how to administer the hormone.

One is through injection and the other is through sublingual (or under the tongue). For those of you who have a great fear of needles and syringes, once you hear of the tongue drop option it’s like the clouds part with a beam of sunlight shining through and a chorus of “hallelujah” begins to play.

Is HCG Right for you?

But if you are one of those who are “so-so” with needles, then the question begs, which is the best option? Well, here are a few factors to consider.  With needles the benefits include equal weight loss, fast absorption, and less frequency due to only one per day.

The weaknesses of injections are that they have an expiration date, can produce infections, swelling, and itchiness, as well as causing pain, lumps and muscle cramps,nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. With injections you must get a visit a doctor and receive a prescription as well as you need to mix the ingredients before administering.

The final factor is that they are far more expensive. With the drops there are pretty much just benefits including that they are more powerful, already mixed and ready for use, they have no expiry date, no side effects, no need for prescription or doctor visit, and they are quite a bit cheaper.

The biggest weakness is that, for effectiveness, you must administer 6 times a day and any inconsistency of this will cause hindrance in weight loss.

Tyler, Texas Bariatric Surgery for Weight Loss

Weight Loss Surgeons Tyler TX

Bariatric surgery seems like a scary prospect even if you are obese. It is true that once you get to a certain point you are told by your doctor you very likely may not live past 35.

 

A friend of mine who is only 24 was told this based on his weight gain and I really hope he loses weight and hopefully without going through a risky procedure like Tyler TX bariatric surgery.

Some types of bariatric surgeries involve removing a big part of your stomach. There can be some pretty severe complications that result in going through this weight loss surgery and I recommend you try everything you can before you decide to do this procedure.

There are some newer weight loss surgery techniques like lap band surgery that simply puts a band on part of your stomach without actually cutting anything away. This procedure seems a little safer than actually tearing part of your stomach out of your body.

Tyler TX Weight Loss

If I were in this very hard situation of trying to decide on a Tyler TX weight loss surgeon I would probably talk to a weight loss surgery consultant who has been through a procedure or two.

They have likely researched the topic for several days if not months and have some great advice to give you since they have been there and done that.

Tyler, Texas Weight Loss: A Gym can get you there

Tyler Texas Gym

Tyler Texas Gym

Before you go out and join a gym and definitely before you commit to a year long gym membership I recommend creating your own exercise routine at your home and sticking to it for atleast a year. If you can maintain a good exercise routine at your home for a year doing some type of exercise everyday you can justify a commitment to a gym. You see a Tyler Texas gym membership takes even more discipline and commitment than doing exercise conveniently from your own home.

There is an exception to the whole anti-gym membership idea and that is if you utilize a personal trainer at a gym. The good thing is XTC Fitness has several fitness programs where the personal trainer comes free during the class. If you decide to join a gym I recommend doing a class such as the kickboxing class offered by Tony Cruz’s XTC Fitness gym.

The class is designed for girls or guys and is no wussified class as I am a guy and I take a great deal of pride in my own manliness and find nothing simple or easy about kickboxing but do find it astonishing how good I feel each day now and how easily I shed the pounds.

Best Tyler TX Gym

Walking over to a chin up bar that is stationed on your hallway doorway takes about 10 seconds. Driving to a gym takes quite a bit longer and requires that you schedule and prioritize things around your excursion from your home to a gym. Many times exercise from home does not require that you change up your schedule at all. You can simply exercise at home when an available slot opens up.

The gym however can work out quite well if you fit it in during your lunch during a 45 minute work out program designed for working men and women as XTC Fitness in Tyler TX offers.

If my thinking on this sounds new and different to what you had in mind take some time to let it sink in as you will save hundreds of dollars by waiting to see if you can even stick to an exercise routine from the convenience of your home. I personally have yet to be able to commit to a year of exercise at home.

An alternative to a gym membership for those who still want to join a gym even if they have yet to establish a home exercise routine is to enroll in a weight lifting exercise class a TJC. TJC offers an exceptional weight lifting, jogging, and excercise class in one that comes with a free personal trainer aka your teacher. You will be taught into shape over the course of a semester and can continue on from there.

A TJC gym class is perhaps the best bang for your buck and a very good way to motivate yourself back into shape.

When all of this is taken into account, it seems a gym membership amounts to nothing more than a waste of good money.  However, there are good reasons to throw caution to the wind and just take the plunge.  A gym offers a much wider range of quality exercise equipment than most people would have room to store, even if they could afford it.  Many gyms also offer specialized classes where members can sign up to work-out in ways that interest them, keeping exercise fun and less boring.

Additionally, when you spend your hard earned money on a gym membership the motivation is there to get your money’s worth.  You will be more likely to make the time to work out when you have invested money into it.  As for the embarrassment factor, there’s not much to be done except know that in a few weeks you’ll be showing your stuff with the best of them.
