This is my 200th edition of the email newsletter. It started out with just 72 subscribers four years ago and now goes to a few thousand and it continues to grow (Thank you to everyone who had their friends sign up to it!). I have learnt plenty of things these last four years and of course during my almost 10 years of helping people lose weight.

I have summed up some of the main things I have learnt over the years in the first article today. Getting in shape is something that should be very easy to do. However, this theory is not close to reality as showed by the 75% of the population who is overweight and the ever increasing obesity rates. Read more today to understand the underlying issues behind this and more importantly what you need to know to achieve your goals.

The second article is another case study. This time from Neill Kelk. He came to me stuck because he was exercising a lot yet not getting results. Neil turned his body around in no time! Following this he got married and now is expecting a baby. The best piece of this story is that he continued to get results long after he finished working with me. Read more about how he did it and how you could do the same.

The final article is about filling the void that occurs when you stop any behaviour. Contrary to popular belief you are not some monster who lives only chocolate/cake/biscuits etc. Instead, you are someone who is doing this behaviour for a reason. So when you stop the behaviour you need to replace it with a something to fill that need. Read the article to learn more about how to do this.

The first article is detailing five foods that many people consider healthy yet more often than not make you fat. The whole concept of healthy living that we have today is flawed and thus around 70% of the population is overweight. For the number to be this high it cannot be because we sneak the odd bit of bad food here or there. It can only be because our total model of what is healthy is flawed. That is the only explanation that could account for 7 in 10 people not being in the shape their genetics designed them to be in.

The second article carries on from last week detailing a numbers 6 to 10 in the top ten gym mistakes. If you do exercise you will make much better progress and enjoy it more when you eradicate these problems. If you are still not exercising, I will repeat what I said last week. GET UP and do something. Your body hates inactivity and wants you to get some blood flowing.

The final article details what happens when happens if you start looking at people around the world and the differences we exhibit between person to person. The medical model views us as all the same, to allow standardised procedures -in the real world we are far from this. Read more about how this applies for your body and getting results.

The first article is about the Fats, the biggest villain in all of nutrition as we have been led to believe for many a year. The only problem is the studies have never shown that to be the case. The real world does not support it neither, the population is out of shape yet we try to eat low fat. How has your low fat diet helped your body fat? If you are still believing that low fat is the way to get into shape then you need to read this article. If you think saturated fat is still something to fear then you are going to be struggling for results. Take a look.

The second article is to a simple fitness test. It is so important to measure fitness training to some extent because most people miss out on the motivation that getting fitter produces simply because they never measured it. At the same time, other people do not see that their body is bored of their current exercise routine. This is shown by a failure to get fitter. Anyone can take these tests so give it a go.

The final link is from my daily motivational newsletter. It identifies some great questions to ask yourself. They are not quite as easy to answer as they may first appear but they point the way to what you need to do to get results. Answer these for some insight rather than simply doing more of what you always have done which produce the same results that you have always got.

The first article is about testing gut function and the mucosal barrier. Your digestive tract is at the core of your health and your immune system is based here. When health deteriorates you can almost guarantee that your digestive system has become compromised. You can test to see the integrity and state of the gut. The first article explains the test which can identify infections, bacterial growth and more. Read the article to learn more about the role and different elements of digestion as well as testing you can do yourself.

The second article follows on from the last two weeks which detailed the types of resistance training you can use. Follow the link to see a sample session you can use to combine almost all the different types. Long term you should separate them out but for a bit of fun try the routine set out. You will need a bit of lifting experience to follow the plan. If you are new to weights then set about learning to do free weights.

The final article which is from my daily newsletter discusses how you should react when someone calls you fat. Though it is rarely said in such a blunt fashion your response to other people implying this is very important. Read the article to understand this whole process and the different elements within it.

The first article is about hunger. Many of you reading this will suffer from strong hunger pangs, have to eat 5-6 times a day and resist cravings left right and centre. This is not a nice place to be nor is it optimal for results. Read the first article today to understand what frequent hunger means and how it affects your chance of getting results.

The second article continues on from last week. Here I detail four more types of resistance training techniques and how they should be brought together within a training plan. Do not be one of those people who do the same weight programme week in week out and then either stop making gains or just give up.

The final article from my daily newsletter is about filling the void. It is all very well saying stop eating this, or drinking that. However, for most people the food or drink is fulfilling an emotional purpose. Therefore you will need to replace rather than simply remove the behaviour. Read more about this today and follow the Mind-Body change exercises at the end to start Changing Your Thinking and Changing Your Shape.

How to Eat less, Discovering Food Sensitivities and the different types of Resistance Training

Types of Resistance Training Techniques - Part 1 Daily Motivation Tip - Eating Less Signed up for the newsletter yet? Confirm your subscription and receive a bonus information guide on a choice of four topics. one2one nutrition news The first article looks at the Mediator Release Test (MRT). This test uses a blood sample to identify what type 3 and 4 food sensitivities you have. This is important because these adverse food reactions can occur up to three days after eating a food. Therefore, you could eat an apple on Tuesday and sneeze on Friday. This makes detection very difficult. The article discusses the other types of food sensitivities as well. Read more about this whole issue as it is a major blocking factor which prevents most people getting the results they want. The second article is the first part about the different types of resistance training technique you can use. There are eight in total and the first four are discussed here today. It is important to understand this as most people just use one technique all their lives while it is vital to rotate between the different strategies. The final piece from my daily newsletter discusses how to reduce the amount of food you consume. This looks at it from the angle of helping the planet and also your body.

When exercise feels hard but you are not getting fitter! Plus, Hair analysis and group advice

one2one nutrition news

The first article is about hair analysis and what it reveals about your body. I am a big fan of hair tissue samples because it is the only test that shows how your body has been acting over a three month period. Through analysing the hair you can see toxic metals levels as well as those of each nutrient within the body. The test does not show what is happening at cellular level (Use the Metabolic Typing Test for that) and thus cannot be used to determine what foods to eat but it can be used to show the overall health and fatigue status of your body. Read more in the first link why this is an important thing to do.

The second article looks at a common problem with regular exercisers made even worse by the fact that no one notices it. This is the problem of when exercise still feels like hard work yet actually you are not getting any fitter. Reaching a fitness plateau is a natural side effect of how the body adapts and is not a problem if you are aware of it. As most people do not measure their fitness, it can, therefore, be a great problem. Read more in the article today.

The final link is from my soon to be released daily motivational newsletter. Today I discuss the problems with group advice in general and how it is easy to be a successful "Guru" yet also very hard to get results across the board. Read this as there is a good chance your results could be suffering to some degree because of the problems with group advice and how most people try to go about it.

The first article discusses how what your body shape implies about your endocrine and hormonal system. Last week I discussed how stressors affected the hormonal system which influences your weight. This week it is about your genetic strengths within your endocrine system and how this affects where you store your body fat. As well as storing fat in different places you will also find food cravings vary from one person to another. This is linked to body fat patterns and is all discussed in today's article.

The second piece is perfect for this time of year. I love taking a run down by the Thames when the sun is out. With summer edging nearer it is the perfect time to start training. Whatever age or standard of fitness you are, almost everyone can learn to run. Read the outline today and start getting that body moving this spring.

The final link is from my soon to be released daily motivational newsletter. It discusses all the things that getting into shape should NOT be about. You may be surprised to learn that many of these elements are what most people base their whole plan upon and no wonder it all falls apart in the majority of cases.

The first article is about your adrenal glands. These two endocrine glands pick up the slack and fight any stressors your body or internal systems encounter. The adrenal glands will help you fight all and everything that comes your way and they are integral to the hormonal balance within your body.

This is vital for any issue discussing weight because your hormonal system is one of the primary mechanisms by which you gain or lose body fat. Years of prolonged stress on your system can cause a change in hormonal patterns within your body. The result is that you are unable to lose body fat even if you are eating and exercising correctly. Luckily there are tests you can take which can reveal the state of these important glands and thus work out an effective plan to get results. Read more by following the first link.

The second article looks at sleep. The amount and quality of sleep you obtain has a direct impact upon the results you get and the functioning of your body. Read the article today to put in place these simple suggestions to improve your quality of sleep and therefore health of the body.

The final article is from my soon to be launched daily motivational tips. Today I discuss the issue of your favourite food and the memory it evokes. Follow the mind-body change exercise to reduce your ties to this food.

With summer fast approaching you can get results and look good by working with me on line or face to face here in South London. Contact me for more information.

The first article today returns to the most confused subject in all of nutrition. Still everyone sits on the too much fat bandwagon despite society consuming significantly lower fat now than previously and despite studies showing the lack of links (they do not get much media attention do they?) and despite the fact most people eat low fat yet are still not at the level of body fat they want.



As the first generation in the history of society to go low fat our 5 billion person strong experiment seems to be showing fairly conclusively that low fat makes you fat! Read the first article today for more information.



The second link is to part two of the article from last week. The most common exercise mistakes I see people make each time I go to the gym are so simple to correct it is madness for you to keep making them and so limit your results. It is a lot easier to read my article than it is to waste a year doing the wrong training techniques.



The final article from my Daily Motivation Series examines the issue of other people offering you food and tempting you to go awry with your efforts. Take a read if this sounds like you.

Following on from last week's article on food sensitivities you can use the food rotation system I have outlined in the first article today to decrease the likelihood of you developing new sensitivities and also reduce the effect any current ones may be having on your body. The system is simple, easy to use and will help your body out by introducing some variety in your eating.


The second article is the first of two parts about the top ten gym mistakes. The advice here applies to any exercise really so if you exercise to any extent read the points and ensure you are not making them. I would estimate over 90% of regular exercisers make one or more of the following mistakes. I know I have made almost all of them over the years.



The final article is from my daily weight loss motivation tips. It is about why people do not enjoy exercise. There are only six possible reasons and I have outlined them here. If you do not enjoy exercise it is going to be difficult to maintain it long term. Learn how to like it by following the link.
