Just another funky trend, or, given our shifting sedentary lifestyle, should we integrate this seemingly simple and natural practice into our world?</strong></em></span><a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/desk.png\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2521 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/desk-232x300.png\" alt=\"desk\" width=\"154\" height=\"199\" /></a>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Well, let’s test it.</strong></span>\r\n\r\nI’ve set up my office and home desk at the appropriate height, and, to be fair, I’ll give it six weeks.\r\n\r\nI figure between home &amp; work, I’ll log close to 7 hours a day in this upright, but stationary position. At 200+ hours, that should be enough to assess proposed benefits.\r\n\r\nEnter 4 cardboard boxes from Coles and I’m right to go.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>So why should I consider standing in the first place?</strong></span>\r\n\r\nWell, firstly, statistics suggest there’d be half your office logging close to 15 hours a day in the seated position. So between Mon-Fri that’s 62% of life spent sitting (or slumped....or slouched). Take out sleeping (say 8 hours) and we creep up to 93% of waking life with a body rusted at right angles.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>The possible/ likely effect of all this sitting?</strong></span>\r\n\r\n* Tight Achilles tendons<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/deskk.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2525 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/deskk-213x300.jpg\" alt=\"deskk\" width=\"188\" height=\"265\" /></a>\r\n* Tight hamstrings\r\n* Weak glutes (bum muscles)\r\n* Rotated pelvis\r\n* Weak Abdominal control\r\n* Weak lower back/ weak upper back\r\n* Closed chest\r\n* Unbalanced head leading to neck strains\r\n\r\nNow, armed with these imbalances, now go for a walk, jog, or run. Hmmmmm no longer feel like a thoroughbred!!\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>So will standing alleviate functional aging?</strong></span>\r\n\r\nWell, that’s what is reported – along with an increase in metabolism, increase in collective strength, improved neural firing (balance) and tightening up your butt!\r\n\r\nI guess it certainly makes sense. Particularly for those who exercise little. And while it would offer little in terms of cardiovascular benefits, this slight increase in incidental exercise should promote muscle tone and therefore improved skeletal balance.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>So what happened to all those coloured swiss balls?</strong></span>\r\n\r\nResearch suggested that a world class ballerina (armed with serious core control) could sit <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/clive.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2523 size-medium\" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/clive-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"clive\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" /></a>correctly (balanced on a swiss ball) for about 50 minutes before muscular fatigue caused breakdown of balanced posture. Athletes could hold spinal balance for around 30mins, an average office worker recorded around 8 minutes, while politician’s recorded around the 3minute mark.\r\n\r\nSo what seemed like a great idea slowly faded to limiting swiss balls to kids play centres and IKEA promotions.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>6 weeks later and here’s my thoughts on standing work stations.</strong></span>\r\n\r\nHang on a sec, I’ll just set my chair up correctly – ahhh that’s better!\r\n\r\nRight then, we probably all agree living idle will likely lead to premature decline of our functional physicality. Meaning, you look and feel 60 at 40!\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>If you don’t use it, you lose it!</strong></span></blockquote>\r\nAs for me and my standing experience, well, while I suspect my metabolism may have been slightly higher, functionally, I didn’t feel the standing option was a benefit. In fact, just standing around, void of significant movement, in my opinion could well be as taxing as the swiss ball effect.\r\n\r\nWhile I’d like to think my trunk strength and activation is better than most, still, gravity is gravity.

One study showed that people who drink a glass of water before every meal lost 3kgs over a three-month period, because “it fills up the stomach with a substance that has zero calories”, and people “feel full as a result”. Especially after I’ve eaten a big breakfast, drinking a lot of water in the morning has also helped me avoid the temptation of snacking before lunch.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/worler.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2540 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/worler-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"worler\" width=\"237\" height=\"158\" /></a>\r\nYour body is 72% water, and you don’t have enough water in you when you wake up. Drinking a big glass of water first thing in the morning is a great way to rehydrate, and start kicking ass from the moment you wake up.\r\nAs for what type! Yeah yeah, I’m aware there’s likely metals, chlorides etc in our tap water, but hey, we’re talking first world! Takeout excuses!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h5><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Why 2 hits of rays per day?</strong></span></h5>\r\n• <strong>Rays make you happy</strong> - Researchers from the Heart Research Institute in Melbourne found that levels of serotonin—a neurotransmitter that regulates appetite, sleep, memory, and mood—are lower during the winter than the summer.\r\n• The research team noted that the only factor that affected participants’ moods was the <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/vitd.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2536 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/vitd.jpg\" alt=\"vitd\" width=\"219\" height=\"164\" /></a>amount of sunlight they were exposed to on any given day. More sunlight meant better moods; less sunlight lead to symptoms of depression.\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #008080;\">Sales of Prozac in Fiji &amp; Hawaii are reported to be poor!</span></blockquote>\r\n• Improved Zzzzzz’ds - Sunlight shuts off the body’s production of melatonin, a hormone produced at night that makes you feel drowsy. Constant exposure to sunlight can help your body maintain its circadian rhythm. Your circadian rhythm is a 24-hour cycle that regulates biochemical, physiological, and behavioural processes and makes you feel tired when it’s dark outside.\r\n• Going outside for 2 minutes at the same time every day, preferably in the morning, tells <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/sun.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2535 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/sun-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"sun\" width=\"241\" height=\"135\" /></a>your body that it’s no longer night time. Sunlight that’s unhindered by sunglasses will reach the brain’s pineal gland more easily and signal it to stop releasing melatonin.\r\n<blockquote>Strengthens your army of defence – Vitamin D strengthens your immune system, leaving you hammering through winter tissue free.</blockquote>\r\nSo we know a glass of H2O just upon waking and grabbing a few rays works!\r\n\r\nSo let’s see how you go over 21 days!\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>AS FOR OUR TEST </strong></span>– 4/5 clients are well and truly back in the groove. Rick Davis, as a Parramatta supporter, will have to wait until football season finishes before his enthusiasm for life returns.\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #993366;\">See next week’s post – My

we’ll determine whether you’d benefit by joining me, and plenty of others, in my yearly 7 day (only) gut health reboot program.\r\n\r\n<strong>Why?</strong>\r\nWell, it’s like this.\r\nWhile my year round food choices, exercises interests, and management of day to day stress keeps me somewhat fit and healthy, my lifestyle is also very much open to enjoying<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/anatomy-160524_640.png\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2580 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/anatomy-160524_640-232x300.png\" alt=\"anatomy-160524_640\" width=\"182\" height=\"235\" /></a> a beer or two with mates, a red wine with my wife, and the odd pie at the footy.\r\n\r\nThen, throw in the odd road trip, leaving me unable to prepare my own food, the typical and unavoidable lifestyle stresses, and bingo, whether I like or not, it is likely my most conducive gut health will dip.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>So it’s operation gut re-calibration time. </strong></span>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"> <strong>I figure it’s my yearly service – which – sets me up for the next year.</strong></span></blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Why the reboot?</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Firstly, the physical reasons;</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* I’m not waking with my usual bounce.\r\n* I’m about 2-3kgs over my ideal yearly weight.\r\n* I’m flagging a little in longer training sessions.</blockquote>\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Secondly, the mental reasons (and they say the gut is our second brain)</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* My tolerance has dropped by 15%.\r\n* My sustained concentration has dropped by 20%.\r\n* My sleep quality is at a poor 75%.</blockquote>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>What is gut optimum health?</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* It’s a perfectly balanced microbial system.<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/bugrr.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2589 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/bugrr-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"bugrr\" width=\"173\" height=\"173\" /></a>\r\n* It’s enough good guys to take down the bad guys – easily.\r\n* It’s a gut lining free of unnecessary and residual inflammation.\r\n* It promotes optimum immune health.\r\n* It promotes energetic metabolism.</blockquote>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em><strong>So basically, I’m putting out the fires, repairing the damage, rebuilding the team, and finally reloading for my future health.</strong></em></span></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Why group Dynamics?</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* The team thing makes it easier to maintain motivation.\r\n* You’ll learn from others – eg recipe’s (photos), q &amp; a’s, last year our library of approved meals reached 112.\r\n* We’re all following the same step by step principles (rules) for 7 days (only).</blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>So what then are the principles?</strong></span>\r\nWell, perhaps I start with what it is <strong>NOT.</strong><a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/vjvj.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2592 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/vjvj-278x300.jpg\" alt=\"vjvj\" width=\"200\" height=\"216\" /></a>\r\n<blockquote><strong>It is NOT a;</strong>\r\nLow carb diet,\r\nPaleo diet,\r\nKim Kardashian diet,\r\nPill &amp; potion detox diet,\r\nA juice cleanse,\r\n7 day headache, or a\r\nMath’s contest.</blockquote>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Well what is it then:</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Here’s the basics;</strong></span>\r\n* We’re off all refined sugar – but certainly still open to plenty of cleansing carbs.\r\n* We’re off most gluten products – but not totally.\r\n* We’re reducing dairy if not replacing with substitutes.\r\n* We’re halving caffeine consumption – again, I’ll offer you a few rip-off substitutes.\r\n* YEP, we’re off all alcohol – no wildcards.</blockquote>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><em><strong>Ultimately we’re doing nothing more than increasing our awareness for real clean whole foods.</strong></em></span></p>\r\nThere are no tricks!\r\n\r\nIn year’s gone by it’s been the commitment to planning for 21 meals that has produced results.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>We’re on:</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* Foods offering a natural anti-inflammatory effect,<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hvhvv.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2221 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hvhvv-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"hvhvv\" width=\"156\" height=\"117\" /></a>\r\n* Nutrient packed foods,\r\n* Super easily digested,\r\n* Fibre features heavily,\r\n* Filling and satiating foods,\r\n* Tasty,\r\nand as close to allergy free as we can.</blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>What about exercise?</strong></span>\r\n\r\nGo for it!\r\n\r\nCalorie volume will change accordingly to your energy requirements.\r\n\r\nI wouldn’t recommend if you’re close to a major race.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Please DON’T join up if;</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* You’re in tip top health.\r\n* You’re not prepared to go alcohol free for 7 days.</blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>How it works</strong></span>\r\n\r\nThe entire program is run through my <span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Team App</strong></span> – which has a web page (so you can join there)\r\n\r\nThe program cost is $39\r\n\r\nOnce you’ve signed up through Team App, you’ll be asked to send me a request.\r\nSimply inform me you’ve paid and I’ll open you up to the program.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Once you’re in,</strong></span>\r\n\r\n* Program details &amp; directions\r\n* What’s ABSOLUTELY out.<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/shopping-list-749278_6401.jpg\"><img

usual bounce.\r\n* I’m about 2-3kgs over my ideal yearly weight.\r\n* I’m flagging a little in longer training sessions.</blockquote>\r\n<strong>Secondly, the mental reasons (and they say the gut is

gut optimum health?</strong>\r\n<blockquote>* It’s a perfectly balanced microbial system.\r\n* It’s enough good guys to take down the bad guys – easily.\r\n* It’s a gut lining free of unnecessary and

usual bounce.\r\n* I’m about 2-3kgs over my ideal yearly weight.\r\n* I’m flagging a little in longer training sessions.</blockquote>\r\n<strong>Secondly, the mental reasons (and they say the gut is our second brain)</strong>\r\n<blockquote>* My tolerance has dropped by 15%.\r\n* My sustained concentration has dropped by 20%.\r\n* My sleep quality is at a poor 75%.</blockquote>\r\n<strong>What is gut optimum health?</strong>\r\n<blockquote>* It’s a perfectly balanced microbial system.\r\n* It’s enough good guys to take down the bad guys – easily.\r\n* It’s a gut lining free of unnecessary and residual inflammation.\r\n* It promotes optimum immune health.\r\n* It promotes energetic metabolism.</blockquote>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>So basically, I’m putting out the fires,

principles (rules) for 7 days (only).</blockquote>\r\n<strong>So what then are the principles?</strong>\r\nWell, perhaps I start with what it is <strong>NOT.</strong>\r\n<blockquote><strong>It is NOT

is it then:</strong>\r\n\r\nHere’s the basics;\r\n* We’re off all refined sugar – but certainly still open to plenty of cleansing carbs.\r\n* We’re off most gluten products – but not totally.\r\n* We’re reducing dairy if not replacing with substitutes.\r\n* We’re halving caffeine consumption – again, I’ll offer you a few rip-off substitutes.\r\n* YEP, we’re off all alcohol – no wildcards.\r\n\r\nUltimately we’re doing nothing more than increasing our awareness for real clean whole foods.\r\n\r\nThere are no tricks!\r\n\r\nIn year’s gone by it’s been the commitment to planning for 21 meals that has produced results.\r\n\r\n<strong>We’re on:</strong>\r\n<blockquote>* Foods offering a natural anti-inflammatory effect,\r\n* Nutrient packed foods,\r\n* Super easily

optimum immune health.\r\n* It promotes energetic metabolism.</blockquote>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em><strong>So basically, I’m putting out the fires, repairing the damage, rebuilding the team, and finally reloading for my future health.</strong></em></span></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Why group Dynamics?</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* The team thing makes it easier to maintain motivation.\r\n* You’ll learn from others – eg recipe’s (photos), q &amp; a’s, last year our library of approved meals reached 112.\r\n* We’re all following the same step by step principles (rules) for 7 days (only).</blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>So what then are the principles?</strong></span>\r\nWell, perhaps I start with what it is <strong>NOT.</strong><a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/vjvj.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2592 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/vjvj-278x300.jpg\" alt=\"vjvj\" width=\"200\" height=\"216\" /></a>\r\n<blockquote><strong>It is NOT a;</strong>\r\nLow carb diet,\r\nPaleo diet,\r\nKim Kardashian diet,\r\nPill &amp; potion detox diet,\r\nA juice cleanse,\r\n7 day headache, or a\r\nMath’s contest.</blockquote>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Well what is it then:</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Here’s the basics;</strong></span>\r\n* We’re off all refined sugar – but certainly still open to plenty of cleansing carbs.\r\n* We’re off most gluten products – but not totally.\r\n* We’re reducing dairy if not replacing with substitutes.\r\n* We’re halving caffeine consumption – again, I’ll offer you a few rip-off substitutes.\r\n* YEP, we’re off all alcohol – no wildcards.</blockquote>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><em><strong>Ultimately we’re doing nothing more than increasing our awareness for real clean whole foods.</strong></em></span></p>\r\nThere are no tricks!\r\n\r\nIn year’s gone by it’s been the commitment to planning for 21 meals that has produced results.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>We’re on:</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* Foods offering a natural anti-inflammatory effect,<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hvhvv.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2221 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hvhvv-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"hvhvv\" width=\"156\" height=\"117\" /></a>\r\n* Nutrient packed foods,\r\n* Super easily digested,\r\n* Fibre features heavily,\r\n* Filling and satiating foods,\r\n* Tasty,\r\nand as close to allergy free as we can.</blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>What about exercise?</strong></span>\r\n\r\nGo for it!\r\n\r\nCalorie volume will change accordingly to your energy requirements.\r\n\r\nI wouldn’t recommend if you’re close to a major race.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Please DON’T join up if;</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* You’re in tip top health.\r\n* You’re not prepared to go alcohol free for 7 days.</blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>How it works</strong></span>\r\n\r\nThe entire program is run through my <span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Team App</strong></span> – which has a web page (so you can join there)\r\n\r\nThe program cost is $39\r\n\r\nOnce you’ve signed up through

we’ll determine whether you’d benefit by joining me, and plenty of others, in my yearly 7 day (only) gut health reboot program.\r\n\r\n<strong>Why?</strong>\r\nWell, it’s like this.\r\nWhile my year round food choices, exercises interests, and management of day to day stress keeps me somewhat fit and healthy, my lifestyle is also very much open to enjoying<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/anatomy-160524_640.png\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2580 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/anatomy-160524_640-232x300.png\" alt=\"anatomy-160524_640\" width=\"182\" height=\"235\" /></a> a beer or two with mates, a red wine with my wife, and the odd pie at the footy.\r\n\r\nThen, throw in the odd road trip, leaving me unable to prepare my own food, the typical and unavoidable lifestyle stresses, and bingo, whether I like or not, it is likely my most conducive gut health will dip.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>So it’s operation gut re-calibration time. </strong></span>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"> <strong>I figure it’s my yearly service – which – sets me up for the next year.</strong></span></blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Why the reboot?</strong></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Firstly, the physical reasons;</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* I’m not waking with my usual bounce.\r\n* I’m about 2-3kgs over my ideal yearly weight.\r\n* I’m flagging a little in longer training sessions.</blockquote>\r\n<span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Secondly, the mental reasons (and they say the gut is our second brain)</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* My tolerance has dropped by 15%.\r\n* My sustained concentration has dropped by 20%.\r\n* My sleep quality is at a poor 75%.</blockquote>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>What is gut optimum health?</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* It’s a perfectly balanced microbial system.<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/bugrr.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2589 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/bugrr-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"bugrr\" width=\"173\" height=\"173\" /></a>\r\n* It’s enough good guys to take down the bad guys – easily.\r\n* It’s a gut lining free of unnecessary and residual inflammation.\r\n* It promotes optimum immune health.\r\n* It promotes energetic metabolism.</blockquote>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em><strong>So basically, I’m putting out the fires, repairing the damage, rebuilding the team, and finally reloading for my future health.</strong></em></span></p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Why group Dynamics?</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* The team thing makes it easier to maintain motivation.\r\n* You’ll learn from others – eg recipe’s (photos), q &amp; a’s, last year our library of approved meals reached 112.\r\n* We’re all following the same step by step principles (rules) for 7 days (only).</blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>So what then are the principles?</strong></span>\r\nWell, perhaps I start with what it is <strong>NOT.</strong><a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/vjvj.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2592 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/vjvj-278x300.jpg\" alt=\"vjvj\" width=\"200\" height=\"216\" /></a>\r\n<blockquote><strong>It is NOT a;</strong>\r\nLow carb diet,\r\nPaleo diet,\r\nKim Kardashian diet,\r\nPill &amp; potion detox diet,\r\nA juice cleanse,\r\n7 day headache, or a\r\nMath’s contest.</blockquote>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Well what is it then:</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Here’s the basics;</strong></span>\r\n* We’re off all refined sugar – but certainly still open to plenty of cleansing carbs.\r\n* We’re off most gluten products – but not totally.\r\n* We’re reducing dairy if not replacing with substitutes.\r\n* We’re halving caffeine consumption – again, I’ll offer you a few rip-off substitutes.\r\n* YEP, we’re off all alcohol – no wildcards.</blockquote>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><em><strong>Ultimately we’re doing nothing more than increasing our awareness for real clean whole foods.</strong></em></span></p>\r\nThere are no tricks!\r\n\r\nIn year’s gone by it’s been the commitment to planning for 21 meals that has produced results.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>We’re on:</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* Foods offering a natural anti-inflammatory effect,<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hvhvv.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2221 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hvhvv-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"hvhvv\" width=\"156\" height=\"117\" /></a>\r\n* Nutrient packed foods,\r\n* Super easily digested,\r\n* Fibre features heavily,\r\n* Filling and satiating foods,\r\n* Tasty,\r\nand as close to allergy free as we can.</blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>What about exercise?</strong></span>\r\n\r\nGo for it!\r\n\r\nCalorie volume will change accordingly to your energy requirements.\r\n\r\nI wouldn’t recommend if you’re close to a major race.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Please DON’T join up if;</strong></span>\r\n<blockquote>* You’re in tip top health.\r\n* You’re not prepared to go alcohol free for 7 days.</blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>How it works</strong></span>\r\n\r\nThe entire program is run through my <span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Team App</strong></span> – which has a web page (so you can join there)\r\n\r\nThe program cost is $39\r\n\r\nOnce you’ve signed up through Team App, you’ll be asked to send me a request.\r\nSimply inform me you’ve paid and I’ll open you up to the program.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Once you’re

fitness trend called <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Orange Theory</strong></span>.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nIt’s huge in the States, and, like many new fitness alternatives it’s never too long before the song &amp; dance reaches our shores.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<em><strong>What is it?</strong></em>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nBasically it’s group fitness classes using cardiovascular training machines like spin bikes, <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/spin.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2655 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/spin-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"spin\" width=\"248\" height=\"165\" /></a>treadmills, rowers, steppers, and x-trainers.\r\n<blockquote>The primary concept behind every class is based on structured intervals of low – medium – and high intensity sections. They refer to it as <span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>BASE – PUSH - ALL OUT.</strong></span></blockquote>\r\nEach class member has their heart rate (in beats per minute) registered on a huge screen above an enthusiastic trainer. I suspect classes are accompanied with background douff douff.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nNow, while Orange theory classes, like pretty much most exercise, offers a stack of physiological benefits (eg: heart &amp; lung health, bone &amp; joint strength, balance of hormonal emotions....... etc), the primary theory behind this training model is based on what is called EPOC – Expired post oxygen consumption – and, I suspect, it’s relationship with exercise promoted fat loss!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em><strong>What is EPOC?</strong></em></span>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nWithout going into detailed physiology, I liken EPOC to the following.\r\nLet’s say I start off my run at a super easy perceived pace. My respiratory rate is controlled, rhythmic and comfortable. My cardio-pulmonary system can easily uptake, transport, and ultilise oxygen to my working muscles.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nAgain, in very basic terms, as I’m efficient at this conversational pace, as in providing continued energy for this output, readily available oxygen will likely marry up with stored fat to allow continued (unstressed) muscle contractions.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nThis is often called the <span style=\"color: #ffcc00;\"><strong>yellow zone</strong></span> – on an exercise intensity chart.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>Basically, oxygen and fat are best mates and in collaboration produce energy.</strong></span></blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">For greater detail on energy production see vid below</span>\r\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/bbtqF9q_pFw\" width=\"412\" height=\"232\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></div>\r\nSo as I, we, all pretty much have plenty of stored fat reserves (even stick insect marathon runners), I should be able to endure time &amp; distance while chewing through readily available fat restores – which –ultimately will lead me to my ideal weight (and shape) for my lifestyle.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<em><strong>So all this seems plausible right!</strong></em>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nNow then, let’s say I pick up the pace to a sustainable but working pace. My heart rate and consequent breathing rate increases. My control of the situation now requires far greater focus.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nAs minutes click over, and perhaps I press the pace even harder, my ability to utilise <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hcfgchvh.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2651 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hcfgchvh-300x180.jpg\" alt=\"hcfgchvh\" width=\"193\" height=\"116\" /></a>oxygen is now challenged. But, as my brain dictates my pace (for now anyway), my metabolism has no choice but to switch over to my more limited sugar tank. And, NOTE - when the sugar tank ramps up, the fat tanks shuts down.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nThis is often referred to as the <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em><strong>red zone.</strong></em></span>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nEventually, if I continue to override discomfort, my sugar tank runs out, my brains give in, and I am forced to stop.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nAgain, all this seems plausible!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em><strong>Now, the whole EPOC thing!</strong></em></span>\r\nLet’s say I train at my easier (all day) intensity fat burning mode for 1 hour. It’s likely I’ll breakdown and use (circa) 100 grams of stored fat.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nAs my training intensity was relatively conservative, my metabolism slows back to my default basal rate within say 30minutes. So, 4 hours post my 1 hour workout, I’ve used say <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/zones.png\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2653 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/zones-300x182.png\" alt=\"zones\" width=\"236\" height=\"143\" /></a>200 grams of stored fat for energy.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nNow, if I blast (in interval style) well over my oxygen (aerobic) threshold – in fact, pretty much right on my anaerobic threshold edge (that point of failure), for a short period of time (like say 2 minutes), then back off to just below my aerobic threshold (very easy)(again for say 2-3 minutes), then in theory, I will breakdown and use circa 60 grams of stored fat for that 1 hour session.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nHowever, EPOC suggests for the 5 hours post my 1 hour interval session, I’ll tap into circa 350-400 grams of stored fat breakdown – so considerably more than my 1 hour steady state session + recovery.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><em><strong>The recovery EPOC effect is referred to as the orange zone.</strong></em></span>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nSo does interval training (and the EPOC effect) burn more stored fat?\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nNext week in PART 2, I’ll offer my opinion based on the thousands of assessments why I think it only works for about 15% of the population.\r\n\r\nBP','PAMPY\'S POST 32.15 - PART 1 - ROAD TEST ORANGE THEORY TRAINING CLASSES – DOES IT WORK?','','publish','closed','closed','','pamppys-post-32-15-part-1-road-test-orange-theory-training-classes-does-it-work','','','2015-08-24 01:33:27','2015-08-24 01:33:27','',0,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/?p=2650',0,'post','',0),(2651,2,'2015-08-24 00:54:44','2015-08-24 00:54:44','','hcfgchvh','','inherit','closed','closed','','hcfgchvh','','','2015-08-24 00:54:44','2015-08-24 00:54:44','',2650,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hcfgchvh.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2652,2,'2015-08-24 00:54:49','2015-08-24 00:54:49','','hrxx','','inherit','closed','closed','','hrxx','','','2015-08-24 00:54:49','2015-08-24 00:54:49','',2650,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hrxx.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2653,2,'2015-08-24 00:54:54','2015-08-24 00:54:54','','zones','','inherit','closed','closed','','zones','','','2015-08-24 00:54:54','2015-08-24 00:54:54','',2650,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/zones.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(2654,2,'2015-08-24 00:54:58','2015-08-24 00:54:58','','fdfdd','','inherit','closed','closed','','fdfdd','','','2015-08-24 00:54:58','2015-08-24 00:54:58','',2650,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/fdfdd.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2655,2,'2015-08-24 00:55:16','2015-08-24 00:55:16','','spin','','inherit','closed','closed','','spin','','','2015-08-24 00:55:16','2015-08-24 00:55:16','',2650,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/spin.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2656,2,'2015-08-24 00:57:11','2015-08-24 00:57:11','','pace','','inherit','closed','closed','','pace','','','2015-08-24 00:57:11','2015-08-24 00:57:11','',2650,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/pace.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2657,2,'2015-08-24 01:00:12','2015-08-24 01:00:12','Morning Team,\r\nRecently I was invited to trial a new fitness trend called Orange Theory.\r\nIt’s huge in the States, and, like many new fitness alternatives it’s never too long before the song &amp; dance reaches our shores.\r\nWhat is it?\r\nBasically it’s group fitness classes using cardiovascular training machines like spin bikes, treadmills, rowers, steppers, and x-trainers.\r\nThe primary concept behind every class is based on structured intervals of low – medium – and high intensity sections.

First, while I have covered this before, here’s a few points about viral URIs.\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #008080;\">They are not caused by getting cold or wet. They are caused by viruses. Person-to-person transmission by aerosolized droplets or direct contact is how these viruses can spread. Yep, that unhealthy sod sitting across from you – you just processed his germs!

It defends against foreign invasion by microorganisms, screens out cancer cells, adapts as we grow, and modifies how we interact with our environment. When it malfunctions, disease, cancer or death can occur. Although it is not necessary to understand all the intimate details of the immune system, it is wise to have a basic grasp of its functions. More precisely, we should understand how to stay healthy.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Training the immune system</strong></span></em>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nIt appears that the immune system has a training effect, similar to other areas of physiology (e.g., cardiovascular, muscular). In other words, a balanced training program of exercise and rest leads to better performance. Studies have shown improved immune function and fewer URIs in athletes as compared to their couch-potato counterparts. This <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/pace.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2656 size-full\" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/pace.jpg\" alt=\"pace\" width=\"259\" height=\"194\" /></a>is especially true in older athletes and it appears that regular exercise can help attenuate the age related decline in immune function.\r\nOn the other hand, too much exercise (more so, hard red zone exercise) can lead to a dramatically increased risk of URIs. The stress of strenuous exercise, particularly in a poorly aerobically conditioned athlete, transiently suppresses immune function. This can provide an \"open window\" for a variety of infectious diseases - notably viral illnesses. This is especially true following single bouts of excessive exercise. For example, it has been observed that two-thirds of participants developed URIs shortly after completing hard, (red zone) training or racing. Similarly, cumulative (hard) overtraining (ie. inadequate rest or periodisation of one’s development) weakens the athlete\'s immune system, leading to frequent illness and injury.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><em><strong>Stress is cumulative</strong></em></span>\r\nIn addition to strenuous exercise, other forms of stress may also transiently suppress immune function. Since exercise is not the only stress factor, an athlete must consider a host of other variables. There are job responsibilities, family obligations, social interactions, financial concerns, nutritional distress (sub-optimal gut health) and other components that shape our lives. The sum of all of these affects a central axis in the body which ultimately <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hcgxg.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2668 size-full\" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/hcgxg.jpg\" alt=\"hcgxg\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" /></a>influences immune function. Some of these (e.g., exercise) are under our direct control, and others only partially or not at all. Recognising when excess stress occurs is easier if it just comes from one source.

The more weight you carry, <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/collll.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2677 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/collll-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"collll\" width=\"207\" height=\"155\" /></a>the harder your engine (output) must work. And this is true, particularly the longer and hotter the event, and of course if you’re challenged with gravity (ascents). The heavier you weigh the harder your brain must work to get the job done.\r\nBut to test and prove this theory, so ever simply, I had Nick run on a treadmill at 12kph for 20 minutes. His average heart rate was 151 bpm, and on completion his blood pressure was 185/91 (his elevated Systolic reading is normal when exercising). His blood glucose was 5.5mmol/L and his perceived rate of exertion was 6.5/10 (10 representing and all out blow up).\r\nThe next day we repeated same protocol only I had him wear a 5kg weight vest. On completion of his 20mins @ 12kph, his HR Av was 158, his BP was 196/92, his BG was 6.7 and his perceived rate was 7.5/10.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #008080;\">Of most interest from this additional (5kgs) of stress was the increase in blood glucose (blood sugar) – from 5.5 to 6.7mmol/L. The influence of the additional stress (5kgs) produced a change in fuel source – from fat to sugar. Well, more correctly to using (requiring) more sugar to fuel his desired output.</span></blockquote>\r\nNick knows his best approach to dropping 5kgs in stored (unnecessary) body fat is to <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/isulin.png\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2680 size-medium\" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/isulin-300x168.png\" alt=\"isulin\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" /></a>balance (reduce) insulin. He also knows that high impact (high GI) carbohydrates will produce the greatest insulin spike.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nHe clearly understands the metabolic (negative) effect of carbs (excessive sugars), but, also concedes he couldn’t resist a late evening sugar hit (post dinner) preceding our second testing session. For some reason, all self-discipline (or control) went out the door, falling to his all –powerful bio-chemical drive of “give me something sweet NOW”.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nOK, now we get to Nick’s biggest hurdle when it comes to dropping that 5kgs of fat.\r\nWhile he’s aware of it, Nick finds himself challenged regularly with lifestyle stress. I guess <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/burn-oo.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2678 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/burn-oo-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"burn oo\" width=\"241\" height=\"135\" /></a>it’s a collective of work, family, financial, and will this finally be the year the Sharks win!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<h5><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>The point is, for most people, certainly Nick, unbalanced lifestyle stress = increase in the hormone cortisol – think fight or flight response).

Well, more correctly to using (requiring) more sugar to fuel his desired output.</span></blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nNick knows his best approach to dropping 5kgs in stored (unnecessary) body fat is to <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/isulin.png\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2680 size-medium\" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/isulin-300x168.png\" alt=\"isulin\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" /></a>balance (reduce) insulin. He also knows that high impact (high GI) carbohydrates will produce the greatest insulin spike.\r\nHe clearly understands the metabolic (negative) effect of carbs (excessive sugars), but, also concedes he couldn’t resist a late evening sugar hit (post dinner) preceding our second testing session.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nFor some reason, all self-discipline (or control) went out the door, falling to his all –powerful bio-chemical drive of “give me something sweet NOW”.\r\nOK, now we get to Nick’s biggest hurdle when it comes to dropping that 5kgs of fat.\r\nWhile he’s aware of it, Nick finds himself challenged regularly with lifestyle stress. I guess <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/burn-oo.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2678 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/burn-oo-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"burn oo\" width=\"241\" height=\"135\" /></a>it’s a collective of work, family, financial, and will this finally be the year the Sharks win!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<h5><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>The point is, for most people, certainly Nick, unbalanced lifestyle stress = increase in the hormone cortisol – think fight or flight response). Cortisol (most often) = sugar (glucose) release = increase in insulin = brain signalling to refill the limited sugar tank = make me feel good NOW (bio-chemical over-drive) = sweeter quick fix options = further insulin spikes = liver storing blood sugar in the form of fat = additional and unnecessary weight.</strong> </span></h5>\r\n&nbsp;</blockquote>\r\nOr something like that!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nSo he can train smartly, avoiding unnecessary training stress (eg blasting too hard too soon), he can also balance insulin with main meals (prefect balance of fat/pro/cho), but if he can’t get a better grip of lifestyle stress (cortisol +), he’ll continue to be challenged <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/streee.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2676 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/streee.jpg\" alt=\"streee\" width=\"205\" height=\"153\" /></a>metabolically – eg fail to tap into that 5kg of fuel – in the form of stored body fat.\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #008080;\">NOTE – I am aware that lifestyle stress can also result in significant weight loss! However, studies suggest for 85% of the population Nick’s experience is the case. </span></blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">While we’ll save his approach to managing lifestyle stress for another post, one thing we did focus on was his Sunday evening clean up.</span>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\nIt’s reported 81% of (pre-mature) heart attacks happen on a Monday! It’s thought the link between the sudden impact of work stress + the classic weekend of (somewhat) sub-optimal food choices, causes an increases collective stress – often overwhelming for those with potentially threatening cardio-vascular/ pulmonary systems.\r\nHe formed the habit of being absolute about his Sunday meal. It featured low-gut irritant, <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/streeeeee.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2675 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/streeeeee.jpg\" alt=\"streeeeee\" width=\"127\" height=\"170\" /></a>easily digested foods. This also made for a solid pre-work week sleep.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nHe improved his management of lifestyle stress – which lead to a collective improvement in all his his stats - which I believe – lead Nick to dropping 4.7kgs of fat. Given this change in physicality has reflected a general improvement in his overall health, I’m happy enough to predict he’ll smash the 90 minute barrier in 2 weeks time.\r\nGood luck Nick – enjoy the day.<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/ghhvhvhv.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2674 size-medium\" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/ghhvhvhv-300x201.jpg\" alt=\"ghhvhvhv\" width=\"300\" height=\"201\" /></a>\r\n\r\nBP','PAMPY’S POST 34.15 – CASE STUDY – PART 3 - STRUGGLING TO REACH RACE WEIGHT!

I don’t need this sh^t! or, at worst, just get me out off this friggin course – NOW!<a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/yyyyy.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2709 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/yyyyy-300x201.jpg\" alt=\"SONY DSC\" width=\"208\" height=\"139\" /></a>\r\n\r\nHopefully I’ll offer a few tools to overcome these likely (and usually illusory) emotions.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #008080;\">This Sunday will see over 20, 000 tackle either the 9km Bridge run, the 21.1km Half Marathon or the Sydney 42.2km Marathon.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">I have 28 runners involved – and Gus.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">I wish my well prepared first timers, and also my seasoned campaigners all the very best.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">This post is for you.</span></blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nRight then, let’s say everyone has prepared reasonably well. As in, slowly mounting miles on feet, naturally increasing speed, and efficiently adapted to metabolise and favour stored fat for energy. Oh, and overcome the staple of preparations – an Achilles injury and of course man-flu.\r\n\r\nBased on my experience, being, 1) courtesy of more than a few epic fails - and 2) countless candid chats with endurance super stars, the only dead certainty on race day will be the (potentially) performance limiting brain emotions which you’ll create and will likely hit somewhere between the 60-90% mark relative to the events full distance.\r\n\r\nI should clarify – I refer to the probable challenge faced for those pressing towards their <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/run-1111.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2711 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/run-1111-216x300.jpg\" alt=\"run 111\" width=\"152\" height=\"211\" /></a>best performance (on that day). For example, I’m running the 9km event with my 14 yr daughter, hence, I shouldn’t, well....I hope not anyway, reach that point of negative emotional kick back (actually.........on further thought, I still might!!!!!).\r\n\r\nSo why does the thought of SLOW-STOP-GIVE UP usually hit between 60-90% relative to the distance of your event? Well, you’ve already collated a tun of work (relative to you), and the finish is nowhere in sight. So you start to doubt your safety, or motivation for maintaining your current pace to the finish line.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<blockquote><span style=\"color: #993366;\">You’ll be asked to answer a question – usually asked by a little devil that sits on your right shoulder – I don’t know why he sits there.</span></blockquote>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nYou’ll be encouraged to slow, stop or pull the pin altogether. Your concerns – or reasons – for pulling the pin could range from anything like – sore legs (namely: quads, Achilles, calves, knees), gut aches, feeling hot, feeling cold, cramping, blisters, chaffing, muscle strains, back aches, hypo-glycaemia and feeling hungry, dehydrated, loose GIT, burning muscles, or just simply you feel s^&amp;thouse. Maybe a few of them.\r\n\r\nNow, at this point I’ve noticed the better athletes, 1) don’t generate the limiting invitations, <a href=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/athththt.jpg\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-2262 \" src=\"http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/athththt-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"athththt\" width=\"268\" height=\"201\" /></a>and 2) if they do, they have the ability to dissociate from them quickly allowing for continue top end pace on. Others however will concede that something really is wrong, and believe that slowing or giving up will solve the problem.\r\n\r\nBrain (behaviour) research suggests that 9/10 times we’re asked that question (in a safe endurance race), the perceived physical breakdown or weakness is in fact a myth – an illusory emotion produced by the person. It’s believed irrespective of your emotional beliefs at the time, you are in actual fact physically more than equipped to continue at your desired pace. It’s simply your healthy brain doing it’s job to protect you at all costs. It’s your emotions signalling that hey perhaps you’re getting close to placing your well-being in danger.\r\n\r\nThese negative (potentially performance limiting) emotions are said to kick in at about 50% near to death - with 98% near to death being you’re about to have no choice in shutting things down. Meaning, basically, you have a huge reserve to call upon. If you except (or believe) the first sign of discomfort (again – let’s say 40-50% near to death), and you accept that in actual fact you really are close to hurting yourself – then you will slow – or stop. And most do.\r\n\r\nSo why do we now know that in 9/10 times it really isn’t a physical limiter within the 60-90% mark of the race distance? Well, I’ve stood at the finishing line at hundreds of races and seen people who claimed to be cactus only 3 kms earlier, run the last km in world record time – high fiving the crowd hit the line with a photo now used in next year’s race promotion.\r\n\r\nObviously if you’re crook you’re crook. I’m just saying that more often than not you can endure – without placing your wellness at risk – far more than perhaps you believe. Your physical attributes are far less vulnerable than you really believe.\r\n\r\nSo how do you dismiss and dissociate from these negative feelings and continue pushing on?\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\">1. BELIEF, BELIEF, BELIEF</span> – Once you’re fit the sole purpose of training becomes and an act of belief. We repeat consistently the same course at our desired pace under race –like simulated pressure – until it is rote learnt. When one toe’s the line – they’re not battling nerves – and certainly not doubting their performance – it just happens.</span>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\">2. MOTIVATION</span> – you either want it or you don’t. It either means something to you – as in you consider continuing at this pace of value – or, if it doesn’t really matter – more than likely you’ll bail. I suspect if you asked me to give everything I’ve possibly got into racing a 10km race with 8 weeks of perfect preparation, my aging body would knock out around 35.00. Now then, let’s say with limited preparation and a pre-race calorie hit of pizza &amp; beer on a minimal night-before sleep, I reckon if you said that one of my kids would die if I don’t run 33.30 – then I’ll run 33.25.</span>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><span style=\"color: #993366;\">3. BUILD BRAIN FILES</span> – In training, you have to practice re-directing negative thoughts towards something else – what? I tend to focus on form. Where my body is in space. </span>\r\n<span style=\"color: #008080;\">More of this in another post.</span></blockquote>\r\nGood luck and see you at the finish line – I’ll have my camera ready.\r\nBP','PAMPY’S POST 36.15- THE “GREY” SECTION IN ENDURANCE EVENTS – BRING ON SUNDAY’S SYDNEY RUNNING FESTIVAL!','','publish','closed','closed','','pampys-post-36-15-the-grey-section-in-endurance-events-bring-on-sundays-sydney-running-festival','','','2015-09-14 06:50:13','2015-09-14 06:50:13','',0,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/?p=2708',0,'post','',0),(2709,2,'2015-09-14 06:44:30','2015-09-14 06:44:30','','SONY DSC','','inherit','closed','closed','','sony-dsc','','','2015-09-14 06:46:44','2015-09-14 06:46:44','',2708,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/yyyyy.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2710,2,'2015-09-14 06:44:37','2015-09-14 06:44:37','','ooo','','inherit','closed','closed','','ooo','','','2015-09-14 06:44:37','2015-09-14 06:44:37','',2708,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/ooo.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(2711,2,'2015-09-14 06:45:06','2015-09-14 06:45:06','','run 111','','inherit','closed','closed','','run-111-2','','','2015-09-14 06:45:06','2015-09-14 06:45:06','',2708,'http://balancehealthprograms.com.au/wp-content/uploads/run-1111.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),
