Hi, my name is Renee Geist, and I’m an RBC resident and personal and group fitness instructor and life coach right here in our beautiful neighborhood! I am currently teaching small group kettlebell classes at the park at the front of the RBC and can teach any variety of class based on requests. Kettlebells are a highly efficient, effective and addicting form of fitness that can be used by anyone, anywhere. I am a certified Kettlebell trainer and I have been using them for years.

The classes are very much structured on the participants’ capabilities and what they want out of the class. As a result, these classes fulfill strength and cardio needs and increase power and endurance. Classes are an action packed 45 mins so you work out and get on with your day. And we have lots of fun!

The current schedule is classes Tuesday through Thursday at 10:30AM and Saturdays and Sundays at 10AM. Your first time working with me is for free!! I provide the kettlebells and you provide the energy, an open mind and your water bottle. I’d love to hear from folks around what they’d be interested in and if they have any kettlebell questions. My Facebook business page is https://www.facebook.com/ReniosRenee, my email is [email protected] and my cell is 512.461.6114.

Have a great day,Renee Geist

WANT YOUR SKIN TO GLOW?

"All Natural" Might Not Be The Way To Go If you want your skin to glow, experts at Baylor College of

Medicine say all natural products might not be the answer. "Some people think that by going all natural with their skin

care, that it will automatically be safer for their skin. That's not necessarily the case," said Dr. Rajani Katta, professor of dermatology at Baylor.

Whether it is cleansers or moisturizers, you can still have allergic reactions to the ingredients even if they are all natural or organic. Many natural ingredients, such as lavender extract or sandalwood oil, are actually types of fragrance additives. Even though these are natural fragrances, they can still cause the same type of allergic reactions. Other natural ingredients, such as tea tree oil, can also trigger allergic reactions.

Since it may be hard to pinpoint exactly what is causing irritation or allergic reactions just by reading labels, Katta suggests consulting a dermatologist.

FOLLOW UP ON YOUR HEART HEALTH

Eating healthy and exercising are well known tips to keep your heart healthy, but doctors at Baylor College of Medicine say don't forget about the follow-ups.

"Many times people will see a doctor and receive a diagnosis of high cholesterol or blood pressure, for example, but they won't follow up with another appointment," said Dr. Joseph Coselli, professor of surgery at Baylor. "These secondary doctor visits are needed to monitor progression of risk factors and to help find the most effective treatment options."

Coselli recommends asking your doctor some important questions:

• What is a healthy weight for me?

• What does a balanced diet consist of?

• How do I quit smoking?

• What exercises should I add to my daily routine?

• What health screenings should I have?

• When should I follow up with my next appointment?

"You have to be responsible for your health and make important changes to keep your heart healthy," Coselli said.

Olympic Fever Can Encourage Physical Activity In Children

According to an expert at Baylor College of Medicine, the Olympics are a great opportunity for children to learn about physical activity and goal setting.

According to Dr. Jorge Gomez, associate professor of pediatrics in the division of adolescent and sports medicine at Baylor, Olympic competitions will encourage children to do something fun and active.

"Research has shown that the strongest predictor of children remaining physically active into adulthood is having experiences of being active with their parents," said Gomez.

He offers the following tips for parents when watching the Olympic Games with their children:

• Point out that the athletes are participating because it¹s fun for them.

• Emphasize athletes are where they are after years of hard work.

• Discuss what it means to be a team player and to have good sportsmanship.

• Focus on the fact that the athletes are fit because they take care of themselves by eating well and exercising.

• While encouraging children to explore new activities, keep safety in mind.

Prevent Colon Cancer In Less Than An HourRegular screenings for colon cancer can catch the deadly

disease before it even begins, according to doctors at Baylor College of Medicine.

"Colon cancer is known as the silent killer because symptoms are not present until it's too late," said Dr. Waqar Qureshi, professor of medicine and chief of endoscopy at Baylor.

Symptoms include rectal bleeding, abdominal pain, weight loss or anemia. But if symptoms are apparent, then it¹s more than likely the cancer has already spread. Screening can catch precancerous growths at a time when life-saving treatments are still effective.

A colonoscopy is the most accurate way to find precancerous growths. A colonoscopy takes up to 20 minutes, and patients are sedated so most don't even remember the procedure.

"Usually screenings start at age 50 and continue every 10 years after that," said Qureshi. "However, if colon cancer runs in your family, screenings should be more frequent and begin sooner."

RANCH AT BRUSHY CREEK

FLYING CIGARSWhile many birds are identified by their patterns, colors, and/or

vocalizations, the Chimney Swift (Chaetura pelagica) is best identified by its silhouette – a smudge gray, streamlined bird, flying deftly overhead and looking a bit like a ‘cigar with wings.’ Its tiny body, curving wings, and stiff, shallow wing beats are as distinct as its high-pitched, chattering call.

Arriving back in central Texas in March after wintering in the upper Amazon Basin of South America, chimney swifts have round heads, short necks, tapered tails, and a wide bill so small it is often difficult to see. Slightly paler on the throat, they are dark gray-brown overall and when backlit against the sky, they can appear to be all black. Chimney swifts fly rapidly with nearly constant wing beats, often banking erratically and twisting from side to side. They frequent lakes, rivers, streams, and fields, where they forage for insects on the wing, often along with swallows.

Spending almost all of its life airborne, chimney swifts have short legs and very small feet and can’t perch when they land, so they use their long claws to cling to vertical walls inside chimneys or in hollow trees or caves. Chimney swifts even bathe in flight, gliding down to the water, smacking the surface with their bodies, and bouncing up to shake water from their feathers as they fly away. As European settlers came and built chimneys in America, their numbers surged, but the recent shift to covered, narrow flues has contributed to a decline in their numbers, and they are now classified as a ‘near threatened’ species. As such, many conservation-minded groups are building free-standing towers to provide nesting and roosting locations.

During the non-breeding season, chimney swifts roost together in a single chimney. When breeding, each mating pair occupies any one given chimney, although they may tolerate other non-breeders in their chimney. Using a glue-like saliva from a gland under their tongues, they cement their nests, made of short, dry sticks, to a chimney wall or rock face. Occasionally, an unmated swift may help the breeding pair raise the young, which outgrow the nest after only a few weeks and cling to a nearby wall, often before their eyes are open.

The genus name or Chaetura, is a combination of two Greek words: chaite, which means ‘bristle’ or ‘spine’, and oura, which means ‘tail.’ This aptly describes its tail feathers as the shafts of all ten end in sharp, protruding points. The species name pelagica means ‘of the sea’, and is thought to refer to its nomadic lifestyle and migration over the water to and from its wintering grounds.

Like all swifts, these flying cigars consume large numbers of insects each day, including highly maneuverable dragonflies and airborne spiders drifting on silken threads, and they even predate on red imported fire ants. Researchers have estimated that a pair of adults with three nestlings can consume the equivalent of 5000 to 6000 housefly-sized insects per day!
