In this week's newsletter I start with five very effective and simple measures you can put in place to kick start any weight loss attempt. Despite making resolutions to lose weight this year many people have not yet started their efforts while others are just giving up. Either way take a read of these five effective and powerful recommendations.
The second article is a subject that has been a focus for my personal training in London and around the world for many years - Teaching people to run.
There is no better exercise to make you feel fitter day in day out. Assuming your body is in good function to be able to run without joint pain then follow the advice I have given in the article today.
If you do suffer joint pain when running then you can usually sort this out quite easily with a clever strengthening and stretching programme. Please see my website for information on this.
The final article is one from the EFT website but it focuses more on a general view point people take to health. Ask yourself if you main goal in health is avoiding pain, illness and the like or is it to be bouncing on top of the world with great energy and vitality. There is a big difference between these two view points. The article describes this effectively.
I hope you are continuing to enjoy these free newsletters.
If you would like further support consider my personal training in London (Clapham) or metabolic typing on line.
Hope you are well

General news at the end of January
This week has been busy in my capacity as a London personal trainer and further a field as coach of the Swedish rugby team. My personal training in london is at maxmimum capacity in the evenings now as I am forced to move more clients to morning sessions and the day time.
The Rugby fitness training is taking off rapidly now both on line and for the Swedish team. With things in place I am set to go out to Sweden to meet the other coaches and key personnel before we undertake this exciting challenge.
Personally my fitness is going fantastically with some focused and aggressive stretching resolving my niggles from travelling and allowing me to really put in some quality training.
The Touch rugby in clapham common is also taking off with 20 people down there in each of the last two weeks.
Excitingly, I am about to start work with EFT therapist Judy Byrne next week which should really give me a good idea of how EFT is done from the very best in the business. She is one of only 29 EFT masters world wide.
Hope you are well

Off to South America
My trip to South America
I have never been to Uruguay before and don't quite know what to expect. A country based on it's farming heritage it seems to have a bit of everything.
Food - Churrasco
Uruguay is famed for it gauchos, who are real life Cowboys. Though I am not quite up to that standard yet a leisurely ride on a horse may be better suited for some exercise.
Santiago is at the foot hills of the Andes and it makes a striking back drop. These views must rank as one of the best sites I saw when I visited South America two years ago.
Food -Curanto
Exercise - Walking in the Andes
As the photo shows the Andes are high and steep. This will allow me to get some good exercise by visiting a local hill village or walking up a peak.
The highest capital city in the world Lap paz is over 3000 foot high and is itself dwarfed by the giant Andean mountain range around it. One of the poorer countries in South America it should be an interesting place.
Food - Empandas
Empanadas are cheese, meat or shellfish pastries filled with tamales andcooked in corn husks. These meat dishes are often hot and spicy.
Due to the height of the city people often have difficulty adjusting. My exercise routine will simply be walking the steep streets of this unique city
This week I wrote a brochure about my personal training here in London. Please down load a brochure copy if you would like to see it . I am going to expand my personal training in Clapham Junction in both gyms and develop the amount of home Personal training in Battersea, Chelsea, Wandswroth or Clapham common.
I will be continuing to expand next year and increase the number of people I help on line .
Final note - my fitness training is coming along well. With a month of intervals behind me I have run some acceptable times, I ran 39.36minutes total time for a 10km ran in 5 X 2km bursts. Then the other day I ran 18.36 for 5km in three intervals. My month away will increase me fitness further I hope and develop everything except my sprinting which I forsee being limted.
I will keep you posted about my trip abroad
Hope you are well
On Saturday I am off to South America for a month. It is going to be a fantastic trip. Read about the local foods I will be eating and the great places where I can do some exercise.
Brazil - Rio de Janeiro
Rio is one of the most breath taking cities I have ever visited and I cannot wait to go back. The city is right on the beach front and after work you will see 10 000 plus people on the beach.
Local dish - Feijoada
This is a stew of beans with various beef and pork products. It's origins come from Africa. It is prepared with black turtle beans, with a variety of salted pork and beef products such as salted pork trimmings (ears, tail, feet), bacon, smoked pork ribs, at least two types of smoked sausage and jerked beef (loin and tongue).
Exercise - Run along copacabana beach
With miles of beach and 30c plus temperatures it is perfect for stretching the legs and jogging the beach front. In the neighboring Ipanema beach there is a 10km lap around the lake. Perfect running conditions.
Brazil - Iguazu
After Rio we will be heading to the amazing Iguazu falls where I could have a quick swim for exercise. Though looking at the picture below maybe I should take a day off and admire the views.......far safer!.
Argentina - Buenos aires
Argentina as a country has everything from beaches to glaciers. Sadly I only have time to visit the capital and enjoy the sites it has to offer.
Food - Churrasco or matambre
Matambre is a beef dish from Argentina. Of an Italian style, it is a rolled, flank steak filled with vegetables, eggs and herbs that is then boiled or oven-roasted. The other main dish is Churrrasco (See uruguay below)
Exercise - Jogging the down the long avenues
As the picture shows below with long straight streets it will be an easy and fun jog each morning to keep me in good shape.
Uruguay - Montevideo
I have never been to Uruguay before and don't quite know what to expect. A country based on it's farming heritage it seems to have a bit of everything.
Food - Churrasco
Uruguayans probably consume more beef than any other people in the world. Churrasco (grilled steak) is said to be the national dish. The dish has many offering of meat as well as steak
Exercise - Horse riding
Uruguay is famed for it gauchos, who are real life Cowboys. Though I am not quite up to that standard yet a leisurely ride on a horse may be better suited for some exercise.
Chile - Santiago
Santiago is at the foot hills of the Andes and it makes a striking back drop. These views must rank as one of the best sites I saw when I visited South America two years ago.
Food -Curanto
Curanto is a stew that combines seafood, meat and vegetables. Another popular meal is beef steak with chips and eggs. Pebre, a hot sauce, is eaten with meat dishes, and bean and corn chowder (porotos granados).
Exercise - Walking in the Andes
As the photo shows the Andes are high and steep. This will allow me to get some good exercise by visiting a local hill village or walking up a peak.
Bolivia - La paz
The highest capital city in the world Lap paz is over 3000 foot high and is itself dwarfed by the giant Andean mountain range around it. One of the poorer countries in South America it should be an interesting place.
Food - Empandas
Empanadas are cheese, meat or shellfish pastries filled with tamales andcooked in corn husks. These meat dishes are often hot and spicy.
Exercise - Walking in the highest capital city in the world
Due to the height of the city people often have difficulty adjusting. My exercise routine will simply be walking the steep streets of this unique city
Peru - Cuzco
High in the Andes I visited Cuzco two years ago. An amazing place with some of the friendliest people I have ever met. It is within striking distance of Machu Picchu.
Local food - Llamas and guinea pig
They may be cute and fluffy but the people of Peru love to eat llamas and guinea pig. I will give it a try though will keep thoughts of my old hamster out my mind to get me through.
Exercise - None
With sights like the one below and New years eve celebrations there will not be time for exercise and who cares when you can visit one of the world's great tourist attractions.
My plans for next year
In the new year I am looking to increase the amount of personal training hours now that I have finished building the strucure for my on line courses which was very time consuming.
This week I wrote a brochure about my personal training here in London. Please down load a brochure copy if you would like to see it . I am going to expand my personal training in Clapham Junction in both gyms and develop the amount of home Personal training in Battersea, Chelsea, Wandswroth or Clapham common.
