Public School Athletes

Using food as a reward is a psychological experiment that will yield negative results. This week, we take a look at the mindset failure when using food as a prize because of some fitness success. The truth is, you are exercising in vain by utilizing this method. The reward system that you put in place with this practice creates a training regimen as a game. Your health has basic rules of success. Exercising to treat yourself is not healthy or psychologically sustaining long term. Your fitness goals should never allow yourself to use food as the goal. A body that can afford to eat anything without guilt or shame should be. The reward you should emphasize is a fitness and health practice that is never based on a sweet tooth craving.

There are many things we want to feel good about: a great first date, your wedding day, the birth of a child. However, feeling good about yourself is only fleeting. It is never permanent and in some cases, it can be detrimental. In the case of fitness and exercise, hearing good things about yourself is the wrong pillar for creating a foundational exercise program.

In this week's episode, we take a look at making a pretty important distinction. Have you ever thought that your daily physical movement can be classified as your exercise for the day? I know in some regards, the fatigue seems exactly the same, however, it isn't. You know how the podcast operates. We try to tell it to you straight, with accountability in mind. Well, this may be one of those episodes. We can help change your mindset definition of the between the difference of physical activity and physical fitness.

The term exercise is defined by whoever is performing it. As it stands right now, not many people understand that the convenience of life is making exercise obsolete. If you were to ask yourself what is better, tracking steps or running them what would you do? If you ask school districts what classes should be they less attentive to, the answer may be PE. notice the world around you and ask yourself, 'Is exercise dead?'

Every year we do this. We celebrate the only true woman who gave us their heart. Mother's Day means different things to different families. However, there is a paradox that being a mom is always a catch-22 when concerning their overall health and wellness. Tune in to this week's podcast and realize that this day celebrated once a year is a road of sacrifice for only one member of the family. Keep training your tribe!

Ok, this may make people feel a certain type of way, but as we have always said I am not in charge of your feelings. This week on the podcast we talk about obesity management in children and how as parents we need to get a handle on a health crisis that will last a lifetime. As parents, you are your child's biggest hero and inspiration. How does that differ when the child is overweight for their age group? This may be a sensitive subject to some. However, if you could keep your child healthy for the rest of their life, why wouldn't you take every opportunity to make that happen?

There is a distinct divide between those athletes who can afford to get better and those who have to use what is available. This week's episode focuses on the state of today's public school athletes. If you are looking for the 'next' athletic big thing in your area it may just be dependent on what type of public school they go to. Train your tribe!

Social media fitness marketing is everywhere. If you are not careful you can get caught up in all things marketing as you try to keep up. As you listen to this week's episode be mindful of yourself with what you see. One person's fitness life is not definitive of how you exercise. Never compare what you see on your favorite social media app as a measurement of where you should be. Control your expectations with what is your reality in your life. Keep training your tribe and be better!

We all want to lose weight. This is one activity we can all agree on. However, actually doing it can be strictly a success or failure. While there are many ways to lose weight, everyone has tried to pick a program, gym, trainer, diet, or in this case a weight loss camp to change their physical appearance. This week we discuss some of the challenges of participating in these camps and how we can alter our mindset for perceived expectations.
