Gratitude Part 2

Yesterday on my other blog I created a list of things that I was thankful for.

Seeing as today is Thanksgiving Day over in the States, I wanted to continue the post as I realised after posting that there were a few other things that I am thankful for.

So, here is part 2 of my Gratitude post.

* First and foremost, I am thankful for my health. I have realised through injuries I have had in the past that we often take our health for granted until you don't have it. I try not to do that anymore.

* I am thankful for being able to live in the best country in the world.

* I am thankful for being able to work in a city like Sydney and in locations that people travel half way around the world to visit.

* I am thankful that my girlfriend is an amazing cook

* I am thankful for my mates that I have had since I was at school.

* I am thankful that I am my own boss and don't have to work under people that I do not respect any longer

* I am thankful that I have never been tempted to try cigarettes or illegal drugs

* I am thankful for that first sip of a cold beer on a hot day

* I am thankful that I am able to pick up my new car tomorrow and be in a position to be able to purchase one

* I am thankful for the weekend away with my family that I will be enjoying tomorrow

* I am thankful that Christmas is only 5 weeks away from today and that I get to spend time with my family over this period

* I am thankful for the tough times that I have endured because they have made me who I am today

It's Creeping Up Slowly

If you've read my other blog you probably would've seen how excited I am about my new Aussie Fatblast Audio Hotseat Interrogations that I've just recently completed work on.

I gave you some inside mail about what type of fat loss secrets that you are going to get your hands on (for free mind you) but I kept it under my hat about telling you who it is that I have interviewed, or who interviewed me.

For a start, I've got a few mates from the States - BJ Gaddour and Ben Warstler giving up some great tips that you must listen to.

The World's Busiest Dad, Chris Lopez gives up some great time management tips during his Hotseat Interrogation.

I've also got an Aussie on board, Amelia Burton who has some great insights into training busy people that you really need to hear.

The last interrogation sees Noel Lyons, one of the UK's finest Fat Loss Experts, putting the blow torch on me to find out some great motivation secrets. I really enjoyed chatting to Noel and it was a 6am interview!

I think I came across alright for that time of morning...

I think you'll agree that with all of these interviews that I've created something that will deliver enough information to absolutely guarantee your fat loss results over the coming weeks and into 2009.

I tell you, I'm really looking forward to hearing from you and all the other listeners when its released on 10th December.

But here's the thing.

The only place you can get a copy is by signing up right here as I've donated the whole thing to an amazing project called 12 DAYS OF FITNESS where over 250 of the world's leading fitness experts are giving away free information on how to get into tip top shape... yes, for FREE!

This was going to be a real deal product where people paid some good coin for all of this info but Dax Moy twisted my arm into including it on his 12 Days promo.

The bloke used to be in the special forces so he can be pretty convincing when he needs to be!

Not a bad Christmas gift right?

Like I said, it goes live on Dec 10 but beat the rush and make sure you register now.

Half a million people are expected to take part this time around and I don't want you to miss out.

Your Secret Weight Loss Tip - Protein, Protein, Protein

Whenever you hear somebody give you their latest tip to help increase your weight loss results, you can guarantee that there will be something different given out each time as the latest and greatest fad that will "definitely work for you".

The one tip that is rarely ever spoken about however is to ensure that you eat protein with each and every single meal. Why is protein so beneficial? There are a number of reasons but let me start from the top.

The most important reason why you should be having some type of protein with each and every meal that you eat each day is because it increases your body's sense of fullness.

What does this mean? Well, to put it simply, you will not be as hungry after eating something that has protein as the major ingredient. You will feel fuller longer. Compare this to if you eat something that is highly processed and full of sugars like potato chips. Your body will be craving them and without a doubt you will be feeling hungry again almost as soon as you finish your mouthful and you will want to eat more and more without ever getting that sense of fullness until you have stuffed yourself silly.

Another great reason is because protein is also known as the body's building block. It is used to repair your muscles after training and exercise. By having protein you will be helping repair those muscles that you have exhausted during your session and it will help you emerge leaner and stronger as a result.

Now that you know two reasons why protein is essential to your daily diet requirements, what are the best sources for you to get this protein?

Glad you asked! The best sources are those that are fresh and natural. Good examples include lean meats like turkey and chicken breast; lean red meats are also a good source. Eggs, nuts, seeds, lentils, tofu, and beans are also all great ways to get your protein intake each day. You could even include Greek yoghurt as a good protein source as this has little human interference. Being a vegetarian is no excuse as you saw some great examples above that are vegetarian options.

Protein is an essential component of every meal that you have from breakfast right through to your after dinner snack. Once you realise the importance that protein plays in your weight loss role, only then will you be able to finally achieve the body that you deserve and rightly desire.

Press Release: Sydney Fat Loss Small Business Owner Fires Up

For Immediate Release

20th November, 2008


Successful Local Fat Loss Small Business Owner Defies Christmas Party Downsizing

Daniel Munday
DPM Performance
http://www.dpmperformance.com.au



Daniel Munday, one of Sydney’s premier fat loss experts and owner of the DPM Performance group training business, today fired back at the corporate scrooges who are downsizing their Christmas parties due to the current economic situation.

In what seems a strange position for a fitness professional to take, especially with the drinking and eating binges that Christmas parties are often known for, Munday is disappointed that 48 per cent of companies are allegedly slashing their Christmas party budgets in half, while a third of business surveyed recently are not having any party at all. “This is the time of year that companies should be rewarding their staff and clients for their efforts over the past 12 months”

He went on to say “I know that I will personally be stepping up my annual Christmas Cans event to reward the efforts of my loyal clients who have really excelled beyond expectations this year”. In fact, in a secret sneak peak, Munday has revealed he will be giving his clients who attend a personal thank you present and a special incentive for them to strive to greater heights in 2009.

The DPM Performance Christmas Cans event is a highly anticipated event each year with clients keen to let down their hair and socialise in a much more relaxed environment then the sweaty training gear usual sessions that they are used to.

Munday said "You don’t have to go overboard with these celebrations but it is essential to acknowledge the efforts and continued support of loyal people like I am lucky enough to have. These valued clients have helped my business thrive despite the so called tougher economic times”.

In a final call to action, Munday challenged fellow small business operators in all fields to step up to the plate and resist the temptation to tighten the financial purses. “It’s time to give back. That’s what the Christmas spirit is all about. Let’s all create some extra goodwill and 2009 will bring many more successes then you have ever previously imagined”.

Daniel Munday is a Fat Loss Expert and Group Training specialist who owns and operates the DPM Performance mobile training business based in the Sydney CBD and Inner West.

Press Release: 12 Days of Fitness

Leading Fitness Experts Give The Gift Of Health To World With Biggest Ever Health and Fitness Giveaway This Festive Season

On Wednesday, December 10, Dax Moy and over 250 of the world's top fitness professionals will open the doors on the World’s largest ever health and fitness gift-giving, set to generate positive health for over 500,000 people this Christmas

The program, called ’12 days of fitness’ initially began when the UK's leading fitness professional, Dax Moy, wanted to express his gratitude to his clients and offered them a gift a day for 12 consecutive days as his twist of the 12 Days of Christmas.

Last year Moy shared this idea with fellow fitness professional Pat Rigsby and they expanded the 12 Days of Fitness to include not only their own clients but to the world at large and gave fitness gifts to over 200,000 people who signed up at the site at http://www.12daysoffitness.com.

This year, with the help of 250 of the world's top personal trainers, nutritionists, therapists and specialist fitness experts, the 12 days of fitness is set to become the biggest fitness gift giveaway in history with expected downloads of over 500,000 between the 10th and 22nd of December. "There’s never been another health event like this, where so many people stand to benefit from the expertise of true professionals for free” says Moy who has been working flat out to make this year’s 12 days a success.

“Fitness professionals from around the globe have contributed hundreds of e-books, reports, videos, meal plans and other free gifts in their hope of making 2009 the year that anyone, regardless or their location, financial situation or past failures, can finally reach their fitness goals and make those New Year's Resolutions a reality once and for all.”

Perhaps the best part of the 12 Days of Fitness giveaway is that regardless of a persons health or fitness goals, there are going to be gifts specifically designed to help them achieve success.

"We've received gifts designed for busy mom's, elite athletes, bodybuilders, back pain sufferers and pretty much anyone else you can imagine covering everything from fat loss to rehabilitation and everything in between.

There literally will be something for everyone this year and all of it free, making it, without a doubt, one of the most important gifts anyone will receive this year. After all, what’s more important than health?”

The 12 days of gift giving starts December 10th but those interested are urged to visit www.12daysoffitness.com right away to sign up for their free gifts.

Once enrolled, participants will get a daily email telling them how to access each of the new gifts that are being added each day as well as a reminder on how to access previous gifts.

Want Toned, Sexy Arms this Summer? It's Diamond Time

Yeah baby, it's time for diamond push ups.

One of the best exercises to hit your arms, especially the triceps and shoulders.

This quick, simple video will show you how to get your 'guns' firing. You're going to need a permit for them soon!

Does Fruit Make You Fat?

I could make this a really short article and say NO and that would be it. But that would not really be a good look would it? Surely you need to be convinced why fruit will not make you fat, especially when there is all of the rubbish out there from people who advocate no carb diets right?

The people who preach about the no carb diets claim that all carbohydrates make you fat while at the same time tell you to consume their miracle weight loss drink that is full of artificial sweeteners. Don't you think this is a bit of a contradiction? Remember, these artificial sweeteners will actually make you eat more because your body's full receptors are turned off.

I would forget everything that they have told you right now and I will now show you why fruit does NOT make you fat. Yes, fruit is full of sugar. But it is natural sugar. It is sugar that your body needs.

The main reason why you should be eating fruit is simply because of all the vitamins and minerals that are contained in a simple piece of fruit.

Did you know that there are over 10,000 vitamins and minerals in an apple that have been discovered. Note that is not all there is, that is just the ones that have been discovered. And that is just from one little apple.

Your body needs fruit just like your car needs petrol.

If I had a choice of getting my sugar intake for the day from the 3 to 4 servings (at least) of fruit that I eat or from having a couple of sugars with my coffee, or by having bread for breakfast you should know what my answer would be.

It would be the fruit of course.

Embrace fruit as part of your fat loss mission and that will be one piece of the fat loss puzzle solved.

I definitely encourage you to reduce your carbohydrate intake to promote faster fat loss but that means reducing the processed carbs from your diet especially breads.

You should be snacking on fruit as a mid morning or mid afternoon snack option but don't forget the one big secret tip that will accelerate your fat loss results. Make sure you have protein with your fruit. Examples of this would include having raw nuts with your piece of fruit or having some fruit and yoghurt together.

Don't fear fruit. Fear the people who are trying to sell you their artificial supplements when you should be focusing on fresh fruits and vegetables, along with lean protein sources to maximise your fat loss and to ensure you have the body that you deserve.

Lest We Forget

Today I am going to take a change in the direction of this blog.

It is Remembrance Day today - 90 years to the day that World War 1 (supposedly the war to end all wars) ended and unfortunately we are still having wars to this day.

I would like to take the time today to remember those who have given their lives for our great country and to thank them and those who serve us.

Lest we forget the memories of those who have passed on doing what most of us would never think about doing.

Thankyou

Boxing for Fat Loss

Have you ever thought about a boxing circuit as a great way to increase your fat loss results?

Check out the following Aussie Fatblast video to see how you can add variety to your training for fat loss program

The Melbourne Cup of Fat Loss Results

Today is Melbourne Cup Day for us Aussies, so Australians around the country will be lining up for a punt and enjoying what is without a doubt the most unproductive day on the corporate calendar for most business people.

The attitude seems to be why have a public holiday when you can drink on the bosses money!

Anyway for those of us who are self employed, business will run as usual but I will still be tuning in after my workout at 3pm for the big race.

So, what does the Melbourne Cup have to do with your fat loss results?

The Melbourne Cup is a race of 3200 metres - 2 miles so it is definitely a race for stayers.

Your race for fat loss is also a staying race.

It is not like a 100 metres dash for cash, a race that is over in the blink of an eye.

You must be in the race for your ultimate fat loss results for the long term.

You must be the one finishing strong down the straight, like hopefully my horse will be at about 3:05 this afternoon!

Be a stayer and then you will achieve the body that you deserve.

Don't let fear hold you back!

Don't Let Fear Hold You Back

I just finished reading a great email from a very happy Aussie Fatblast Client.

She said that in the past she had let fear hold her back and was afraid to take action but after reading my motivating emails she is now ready to roll and take action.

I don't want to name names but when she reads this she will know who she is - and let me just say she is putting to shame people who say they are too old to change their old ways.

Age is a number, not a barrier.

The big thing that makes all the difference to one's ability to achieve their ultimate fat loss results is that they take action.

They don't put it off and say I'll start when so and so finishes or when the weather is warmer... or cooler... or whatever.

Take the lead of a soon to be successful Aussie Fatblast annihilation success story and get amongst it.

More importantly, don't let fear hold you back!
