Holistic Health is one of the buzzwords that has been thrown around a lot the last 5-10 years. And this is a good thing as it is the ONLY way to achieve great health. Unfortunately many people do not really understand what this means so this video we are going to show what ALL the pieces of the puzzle are.And most importantly how to solve the puzzle.

Solving The Health Puzzle

Start Here

Welcome

You MUST Write Down Your GoalsFewer than 3% of people have clear, written goals and they are usually the most successful in every field. Less than 1% of all people re-write and review their goals on a regular basis!When you set goals you attract the right sort of ideas and materials to realise your dream!

1

Know Your WHY?If step one was knowing WHAT you want to do this step is all about WHY you want to do it! It is the WHY that becomes your desire and MOTIVATION.You will need this when obstacles get in your way and temptations to deviate from your plan arise.And trust me they will come up!

2

Drink More WaterWater makes up more than 2/3 of human body weight, and without water, we would die in a few days. A mere 2% drop in our body's water supply can trigger signs of dehydration: fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic problem solving, and difficulty focusing on smaller print, such as a computer screen.WATER is as ESSENTIAL as BREATHING

3

Learn To Breathe CorrectlyWithout doubt the MOST important exercise to get right.If you stop breathing you will be dead in 3- 4 minutes!Breathing maintains your acid-alkaline or pH balanceHelps in the breakdown of food (metabolism)Greatly influences your postureActs as a key component for your stabilizer system Generates Cerebral Fluid in the spineControls stress & emotions

4

Sit Less & Move MoreMost people are unaware of how much damage sitting creates and plays havoc with your metabolism. Sitting for too long slows down the body’s metabolism and the way the enzyme lipoprotein lipase breaks down our fat reserves. Small amounts of regular activity, even just standing and moving around, throughout the day is enough to bring the increased levels back down

5

Do Strength Training 3 Times Per WeekMuscle has the biggest influence on your metabolismMuscle plays a pivotal role in controlling hormones, blood glucose and triglyceride profiles.Plus strength training will keep your bones strong preventing fractures, osteoporosis, sarcopenia and almost all injuriesMuscle strength declines 30% on average from ages 50-70

6

Use Functional Training MethodsNot all strength training is the same. Most of today’s methods are based on body building which do not serve a purpose of helping you to move well. Our goal is to get your body’s systems to work in a highly coordinated and effective fashion so that everyday activities and tasks are completed easily and successfully

7

Stretch Every DayI find there are 2 types of people when it comes to stretching. Those that neglect and ignore it all together and those that do too much and abuse stretching.You must ONLY stretch what is TIGHT.And you must do this each day to ensure your body can move freely and without restrictionTight muscles create weak muscles!

8

Eat More Green VegetablesOnly 25% of the people we talk to about food eat three or more servings of vegetables a day!Vegetables contain an array of antioxidants and other disease-fighting compounds that are very difficult to get anywhere else. Plant chemicals called phyto-chemicals can reduce inflammation.Basically they are natures anti inflammatory pills

9

Eat Protein With Each MealProtein is a food source which promotes recovery and rebuilding of cells in your body mainly for your organs and muscles, which is why it’s so important. Protein helps prevent cravings by suppressing the elevated insulin levels usually caused by eating too many carbohydrates

10

You Must Get Good Quality SleepSleep is essential to our health as we need it to rest and repair from all of the activities throughout the day. Our body’s digestive system and repair systems go into hyperdrive at nightIf they don’t get the required time to fix things the damage is not repaired!You must be in bed by 1030pm

11

Eliminate SugarWhen you eat sugar you secrete high levels of insulinHigh insulin levels suppress 2 important hormones -- glucagons and growth hormones -- you need these for burning fat and adding muscleBasically you add fat and prevent the one thing you need to stop this from working!You can safely metabolize about six teaspoons per day

12

Add Interval Training To Your ProgramElite athletes have known the power of this type of training for years. It yields faster and more powerful results in less time than any other methodThousands of studies have confirmed that exercising in shorter bursts with rest periods in between burns more fat than exercising continuously for an entire session!It also promotes muscle gain and huge VO2 max results

13

Use Meditation, Tai Chi Or YogaStress will undo the effectiveness of any Health or Weight Loss Program! Stress will rob your body of any energy to make changes with your food, exercise and any difficult lifestyle habits. Methods like meditation, tai chi or yoga can make a massive difference to your stress and provide you the reserves you need in order to make difficult changes

14

You Must Eat Breakfast & Never Skip MealsBreakfast is the most important meal (breaks-the-fast)If people skip breakfast, it tends to throw them into a blood sugar crisis and elevates cortisol levels right from the very start of the dayThis sets you up for sugar cravings and overeatingSkipping meals during the day has the same effect

15

Be Patient, Consistent & Never StopIf you are able to execute all of these elements you still need to remain patient and consistent to achieve the desired resultsThere is no “quick fix” when it comes to health.It takes years of sticking to your plan and constantly reviewing what works, what needs changing and looking to improve.
