High Impact, High Fatality?

High impact exercise has it's place; I love HIIT training one to two times per week, but what happens if you're too high impact for too long?

 A new study out of Copenhagen has looked at death rates in joggers who jog more than three times per week and jog vigorously compared to those who jog at a low intensity three or less times per week.

High protein foods- Navy Beans are Awesome!

Image
If you're wondering why navy beans are so great, let me tell you! In one cup they have about 15 grams of protein, and a whopping 19 grams of FIBER ! You are suggested to have about 30-40 grams per day, so have a cup of navy beans and you're well on your way to your daily intake. You can make them from a can or soak dry beans overnight. Stick them in chili, put them in a wrap with some quinoa or brown rice, add some cheese and make a quesidilla; the list goes on. For more information on the navy bean, click here .

Getting Certified in Nutrition

Have you ever thought about learning more about nutrition? There are plenty of courses out there, and as I was searching I found this one which looks very thorough. There are so many nutrition courses out there it's hard to know which one is the best. Obviously unless you become a registered dietitian or nutritionist, you can't give the same kind of nutrition advice, but it's good to have some background to give out helpful tips and ideas on eating well to your clients. Even if it's just for yourself, you may be interested in taking a nutrition course. This company offers some free CEC's for fitness professionals that I've used before- some are webinars and others you read online. Great idea! Of course you can read online articles about nutrition, but so many things contradict each other it's hard to know what's legitimate sometimes. All the best on your nutrition journey!
