Congratulations!
4,000 Training Club points, that is an extremely high number and with absolute pleasure we would like to announce that Tracy Beswick from Step into Life Labrador, Qld received hers last week.
Tracy started her campaign of health and fitness with Step into Life in May 2005, and in only her second year had completed 3 half marathons in as many months! Her training workload is just great to see, and her never say die, suck it up attitude sees her where she is today. She is certainly one of the quieter members we have; and that in itself is what Step into Life is all about. Today Tracy it is your time to shine; outstanding achievement, we are all very proud of you.

Questions
Where were you born? I was born in Melbourne (Dandenong hospital) What is your current profession? I'm a qualified Carpenter "LOVE IT" What sports have you been involved with during your life/best achievement? My prior sport history began at the age of 4 when I began Kung-fu & that ended at the age of 16, then at the age of 21 I started maui thai for 3 years. Until this very day I continue to play volleyball and attend step into life sessions What is your favourite Step into Life session? Power flex is my favourite session because it helps me to keep my core strong and posture in line, which is very important to me What are your top 3 goals you would like to achieve? To gradually get to 100kg. What goals have you achieved at Step into Life so far? I have achieved beyond my capabilites, (or what I thought were). With the help and support of step into life I have reduced body fat, increased muscle mass, corrected an incorrect posture, and dominated boot camps. I have gained a better understanding of how "MY" body operates, what foods react best and what doesn't!!

Shop around for the latest in cold weather gear. Even if you are still not excited about exercising in the middle of winter, these clothes can get you outside in most climates. You might only have to sacrifice a few days here and there. Remember, keeping your routine helps you maintain your endurance without risk of injury. If you are simply unable to keep up with the exact same exercise routine, find something else you love that will keep you moving. Remember the more you move in the colder months, the more you burn. The worst thing you can do is give up on fitness. Stay flexible, look at your options, but dont stop.
Lots of people who are enthusiastic about fitness slack off during the colder weather. Nobody wants to spend time outdoors if the temperature is cold or raining. The problem is you cannot give up exercising for three to six months every year. Exercising on a regular basis is one of the keys to maintaining good health. If you cease doing it every winter, you are going to regret your decision, because it takes more effort to start again than to keep going. While everyone's tolerance for the cold is different, you can do a few things to ensure that you dont stop in the colder months. How about combining different forms of exercise and different routines that keeps your fitness schedule fresh and fun? Do not hesitate to mix things up every once in a while. If you enjoy your current fitness routine, your goal should be to stick with it as much as possible. There is no sense switching to completely new forms of exercise if you are not going to stick to it. For example, if you like to run, determine if there is a way you can make running outdoors comfortable. There are plenty of options when it comes to insular clothing. Technology has made it possible to spend long periods of time in cold temperatures and new forms of fitness clothes are now available to keep you warm and comfortable.

Melatonin assists in regulating your sleep-wake cycle (circadian rhythm) by causing drowsiness and lowering body temperature. Reset melatonin by spending time in a dull, darkened room before falling asleep to promote the production of melatonin. If you can, also avoid shiftwork or major disruptions to your circadian rhythm. Testosterone is the principle male sex hormone that has effects on muscle growth and strength. Reset (increase testosterone) with weight loss (in men), adequate sleep and resistance training. Vitamin D from dairy, eggs, and fish as well as zinc from lean red meat, oat bran and cheese can also promote healthy testosterone levels. Oestrogens primary role is the sex hormone in females. Oestrogen balance is also important in men. For either sex, an imbalance can interfere with body weight regulation. Often, resetting oestrogen levels requires medical treatment.
Something still not right? Resetting hormones can take time, so be patient in terms of results. When you get the balance right, your hormones can help you stay in shape automatically. However, if after using this hormone checklist to review your lifestyle, you feel you are eating nutrient-rich, exercising regularly and managing your mood, BUT something is still not right you cant seem to shed excess fat, your energy levels are low or you feel unusually tired, please check with your Doctor for a full review of your situation and hormone levels. It could be the breakthrough you are looking for.

What does bootcamp ~ endurit training feel like to you? (cardiovascular or strength) pick only one. What does kickboxing ~ boxkick training feel like to you? (cardiovascular or strength) pick only one. Would you then consider this your strength or your weekness? We discussed that our Strengths as a group are Camaraderie & peer motivation as described in our video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ewGfTrf1sk Events (we identified that all the events we attend are cardio & endurance based very little strength & speed if any) So even though our short term goal were brilliant by achieving these, we were neglecting long term goals but not focusing a lot more on strength training. I explained at the meeting that we need to be doing strength training 3-4 times a week! Once or twice is simply neglecting what your body needs to be healthy & strong. Using the information above make sure you are doing right for yourself this winter & for your training programs cause if you havent been already then this is the CHANGE you MUST make. See a health professional for guidelines for your abilities towards strength & speed training. The dictionary describes strength as: The power to resist strain or stress; durability. Great descriptions & explanations are listed below. On Facebook I read a great summary of strength training & its benefits, for a better understanding: https://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?fbid=368409936553 828&set=at.148562581871899.30677.143149019079922.13 51209568&type=1&theater Speed / Sprint training is definitely a Strength form of training. For a brief but simple explanation http://www.fitday.com/fitness-articles/fitness/cardio/thebenefits-of-sprinting-and-speed-training.html Though we will be working on your strength training throughout winter in toneup & coreball (and by all means if you are unsure about your goals & if your doing sufficient strength training then please complete a goals form http://www.scribd.com/doc/95645646,) Though your training focus over the next two months will be endurance at cardiomax to build a strong base be ready for August where we will be focusing a lot more on your Speed training through cardiomax, endurit & achieveit. Yours Always in Health & Fitness, Aaron Edwards
