Food To Chew On:
Friday - The Anointing Wisdom
Colossians 3:16 (NKJV)

 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

Thought For The Day:

Thank You Lord, for Your answer to my prayer for an anointing of my Mind, Body and Spirit…..~Amen~


Happy “Framework Friday,” as we continue to stick with our new way of living by exercising and eating the right foods. Than we will become this beautiful framework that God had designs from the beginning of time…
Keep Up The Great Work You Can Do It!!! J


Fall Prevention In The Elderly
Single Limb Stance

Step 1
 •Stand with feet together and arms at sides.

Step 2

•Lift one leg and balance on the other.
•Hold for 10 seconds, then repeat with the other leg.


Breathing:

•Keep breathing normally, in through the nose and out through the mouth..

Tips:

•Use a chair as a place to not only perform seated exercise but also to hold on to while standing. Hold on with your finger, one hand or two hands.

Hold chair with finger Hold chair with one hand Hold chair with two hands

•Don't close your eyes or hold your breath.
•Raise your arms out to the sides if you need more balance.

Take it up a notch:

•Lift chest and look straight ahead to make standing more challenging.
•Try adding a one pound ankle weight to one ankle.
 You made it!  You are doing your part for fall prevention in seniors and the elderly.


Navy Seal Workout

For gym rats, we have the luxury of being far more creative and employing tons of variety in the gym when seeking functional strength. Every day is a full-body workout!


Seal Workouts and the Battlefield of Fitness

Due to the mystique surrounding elite fighting forces, especially in this day and age where Hollywood derives a large percentage of its funding from military interests, the Navy Seal workout has been exaggerated. 

Seal training is about incredible cardiovascular efficiency, head to toe functional strength, and discipline, but isn’t all that complicated. A basic Google search will show that popular notions of getting ready for Hell Week include metric tons of swimming, running, pushups, sit-ups, and pull-ups.

Of course there’s more to being a Seal and it’s obvious why so few are chosen. But in terms of the average Joe or Jane who desires to have a physique like they do and get fit, I suggest a workout mind frame and regimen that has far more variety, but a similar level of dedication.


A Healthy Menu For
Friday

Celebrate the end of the workweek by starting your day with two slices of whole-wheat French toast and two teaspoons of unsweetened applesauce mixed with a tablespoon of maple syrup and eight ounces of non-fat yogurt. For lunch, have a cup of low-fat cottage cheese mixed with a half cup of fruit cocktail, a salad of baby carrots and cherry tomatoes topped with a quarter cup of low-fat ranch dressing and a slice of whole-wheat bread with a teaspoon of fruit spread.
