The Must Have Ingredients For Developing A Lean Body
So what are the must have or key ingredients for developing a lean body?
There are three main areas that you will need to address in
order to develop the lean athletic look and they are:
1. Your Training
2. Your Nutrition
3. Your Mindset
As important as training and nutrition are to your success, your mindset is the most
crucial ingredient of all. If you really want to succeed and transform your body into a
lean athletic state then start addressing the way in which you think about your
training, your nutrition and ultimately your body.
‘If your mind is weak, your body will be weaker’
When it comes to your mindset or way of thinking in relation to training and nutrition,
you may need to eradicate some misconceptions or myths you’ve been fooled into
believing.
There’s a lot of bad information around, so choose wisely the information you put your faith in.
‘You are the embodiment of the information you choose to accept and act upon.
To change your circumstances you need to change your thinking and subsequent actions.’
P.A.S.S.I.O.N. Is A Must Have Ingredient
If you truly want to succeed you will want to remember the abbreviation passion.
P = You must PLAN
A = You must take ACTION and put your plan into ACTION.
S = You must have SELF BELIEF and begin with SUCCESS IN MIND.
S = You must find SOCIAL SUPPORT and SURROUND yourself with positive people.
I = You must be INVESTED physically, emotionally and financially.
O = You must identify any and all-potential OBSTACLES.
N = You must NEVER GIVE UP.
The main reasons people fail, is because they haven’t addressed one or all of these
items. They simply fail because...
• They fail to plan.
• They procrastinate.
• They don’t have much self confidence.
• They don’t believe they will be successful, they expect to fail.
• They do not seek social support or surround themselves with negative people.
• They are not fully invested or committed to what it is they want to achieve.
• They did not identify potential obstacles that would get in their way.
• They decided (yes it’s a choice) to give up.
Procrastination is probably the biggest reason people fail. Everyone wants to put
things off and wait until everything is just right before they start, or they’ll say, “I’ll
start on Monday.” You should never start on a Monday. How many Mondays have
you started on? Now how many Mondays have you restarted on? When you decide
what it is you want that’s when you start, there and then, not later, and certainly not
Monday.
‘Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be
challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step
you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more selfconfident and more and more successful.’
You MUST Know What You Want!
Deciding what you want first, which in this case means deciding what you want your
body to look like, is the most important step you can take if you truly want to
transform your body once and for all.
If you wanted to buy a new car, you would first decide what type of car you want,
what features you’ll want it to have, maybe what color you’d like it to be, etc. Yes
you will have a budget to work within, so that will limit your buying options, but
when it comes to developing the body you want, the only limiting factor is you and
how badly you want your new body.
You might well be saying, but there’s other limiting factors such as “ I don’t have
the time” or “I have a family” or “I can’t afford a gym membership” or “I can’t afford
to hire a personal trainer” or our personal favourite “ I have horrible genetics, a slow
metabolism and the fat gene. ”
These are not limiting factors at all, they are simply excuses you use to stop yourself
from developing the body you want. Lots of people have been able to totally transform
their bodies and still lead a busy family life, while holding down full time jobs,
without hiring an expensive personal trainer or taking out a gym membership, and
they all did so by no longer making excuses, taking responsibility for their own bodies
and health, using their time wisely and working with the bodies and genetics they
have.
So decide what you want first, then go and do it!

Another influenza season is beginning, and the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will strongly urge Americans to get a flu shot. In fact, the CDC mounts a well-orchestrated campaign each season to generate interest and demand for flu shots.
But a recent study published in the October issue of the Archives of Pediatric & Adolescent Medicine found that vaccinating young children against the flu appeared to have no impact on flu-related hospitalizations or doctor visits during two recent flu seasons. At first glance, the data did suggest that children between the ages of 6 months and 5 years derived some protection from vaccination in these years. But after adjusting for potentially relevant variables, the researchers concluded that "significant influenza vaccine effectiveness could not be demonstrated for any season, age, or setting" examined.
Additionally, a Group Health study found that flu shots do not protect elderly people against developing pneumonia -- the primary cause of death resulting as a complication of the flu. Others have questioned whether there is any mortality benefit with influenza vaccination. Vaccination coverage among the elderly increased from 15 percent in 1980 to 65 percent now, but there has been no decrease in deaths from influenza or pneumonia.
There is some evidence that flu shots cause Alzheimer’s disease, most likely as a result of combining mercury with aluminum and formaldehyde. Mercury in vaccines has also been implicated as a cause of autism.
Three other serious adverse reactions to the flu vaccine are joint inflammation and arthritis, anaphylactic shock (and other life-threatening allergic reactions), and Guillain-Barré syndrome, a paralytic autoimmune disease.
One credible hypothesis that explains the seasonal nature of flu is that influenza is a vitamin D deficiency disease. Vitamin D levels in your blood fall to their lowest point during flu seasons. Unable to be protected by the body’s own antibiotics (antimicrobial peptides) that are released by vitamin D, a person with a low vitamin D blood level is more vulnerable to contracting colds, influenza, and other respiratory infections.

We all want healthier younger looking skin.
The $50 billion beauty industry is so powerful that it's kept itself unregulated for decades. In the United States, it's perfectly legal for beauty products to contain chemicals linked to cancer, birth defects, reproductive problems and learning disabilities. Hazardous chemicals do not belong in products we use on our bodies.
Isn't it time for you to find out what's going on, and help make sure that what goes on your body is safe. Would you be surprised to learn that major loopholes in federal law allow the $50 billion cosmetics industry to put unlimited amounts of chemicals into personal care products with no required testing, no monitoring of health effects, and inadequate labeling requirements?
• Americans are less protected than consumers in other countries. The European Union has banned more than 1,100 harmful chemicals from cosmetic products. In the U.S., only ten ingredients are restricted.
Customers that suffer from acne, psoriasis, wrinkle spots and dry skin have found effective relief with the use of the Glimpse Skin care line.
