You know what you need to do!  You need to make sure that you are training hard enough when you are training and making sure that you are maximizing the time spent.  It is extremely frustrating to know that when you have completed a workout to find that your intensity didn’t yield the best results.  I am here to share with you the best kept secret about how to determine what your intensity with a fail proof method...it is simply finding out what your heart rate is and matching it to your training goal.  If your goal is to ran faster and gain the most explosive muscle contraction, then training at 55% of your maximum heart rate isn’t he best training zone for you. 

I highly recommend getting a heat rate monitor that will not only tell you your heart rate, but also calorie burn too.  The one I use is a Polar F6 which is one that is compatible with most cardio machines. 

Good luck and if you have any questions, please let me know!!  :)

How often do we get so motivated to make the right changes in our lives to maximize the results in return and we get caught up in the web of life?  We have goals and visions laid out on paper then the work day seems to drag, the traffic lights seem to always turn red when we near the intersection, clients cancel and chaos overwhelms us? 

I know this happens to me and my mind seems to fill up with those meaningless "things" that keep my mind occupied preventing me from keeping my eyes on the goals and visions I have for a results-rich future.  The thing WE need to focus on is the present moments.  Each individual moment adds up and when they are filled with chaos and confusion, we tend to not focus on productivity.  We tend to worry about things we cannot control.  We tend to SPEND time instead of investing it in our families, our bodies and personal growth.

Right now, let’s empty our minds and focus on right now.  Let’s focus on the magical moments in the present and not in the nuts and bolts of our past.  Right now is the moment you will turn into a victorious individual that has no shackles!!!  What magic is happening around you right now??  Let me know what you find!!

My present magical moment just happens to be my lovely wife telling me that dinner is ready and she is smiling in the kitchen telling me to put the laptop away...lol  Ambers smile is all the magic I need.

Have a great night!
