NEW START

Throw away all the old habits that are no longer fun and offer nothing in the lines of fulfilment

A very happy New Year.

You can make intelligent decisions about your health and life for 2007 and beyond. Decisions that translate into getting the most out of every minute that you spend exercising. Eat the right foods and at precisely the right times to fuel muscle growth and boost energy and stamina. Finding creative new ways to stay healthy while others around you get sick and keeping mentally sharp. I’ve checked into some exciting developments that are on the horizon as well as my weight consultancy and nutrition classes and will share more details with you in the coming month that I hope will keep you all enjoying health and fitness.

Children’s Fitness

They love running, they love jumping, they love eating! Today’s children are growing-outwards, not upwards.

People forget that children have a natural curiosity and imaginations that need to grow. How can this be developed if they are given no room to explore their abilities.

Fear of damaging bones, stunting growth and children not getting the benefits of traditional play have all been used as reasons for not doing anything new. Health clubs are realising this and are starting to become more family orientated. Clubs are no longer child free zones and kid’s facilities are almost a common place.

Healthy Snack Ideas for children.

• Yoghurt * Vegetable Dip sticks
• Fruit Smoothies * Fruit Salad
• Fruit are Vegetable skewer Kebabs *Popped corn
• Jelly Fruit cups
