When I see the Biggest Loser...

When I see the Biggest Loser, where the participants are pushed to non-aerobic-energy-system levels, (whether they are on a treadmill, bike, or … whatever, for 1 hour or so…) and they lose weight while sagging; no wonder they find it so hard to maintain the achievement once in the “real” world. They are NOT burning fat; but, losing MUSCLE…!


For long term changes, you have to start conditioning your MUSCLES on a constant daily routine. Muscle BURNS fat; so, when you do an aerobic-energy-system workout THOSE muscles will burn MORE fat. Muscle conditioning will, also, increase your stamina and ability to perform everyday tasks. As a bonus…you will “look” more toned or firm. My clients call it “collected or contracted”.

I encourage YOU to work from 10 to 45 minutes a day. Tone, tone, tone! Once you got that, add 10 to 30 more minutes of cardio, watching you stay in your Fat-Burning-Zone. Discipline, that’s all it takes. EXITO

Ayer, La Bailarina Bailó

http://www.lucilafit.com/

Ayer, la bailarina bailó, ante la mirada perpleja de su padre, y la desinteresada de su madre. En aquel salón lleno de gente, no existía más nadie que su armoniosa hija. Quien le reciprocaba con guiñadas reconfortantes de que había valido la pena apoyarla en su sueño de bailar. Solo ellos, y yo, podían sentir la energía de su amor filial. Solo que yo extrañaba vivirlo, nuevamente, con mi Padre.

Seguiré bailando, Papá

Paz para la MUJER...!

La violencia a la mujer comienza cuando se DENIGRA su IMAGEN en actitudes, anuncios, videos, fotos y ejemplos. Si seguimos enviando el mensaje de que la mujer es un OBJETO que no vale...asi se nos seguira tratando. Nosotras, como MUJERES, debemos comenzar dandonos a valorar. Pero no para, luego, dar la espalda y ponernos a disposicion de los y LAS que quieren lucrar$e manchando nuestra dignidad y reputacion. Cuantas veces no ves como alguien te mira como si estuviera viendo una "facilita" de video o revista...

“What is your background...”

www.LucilaFit.com

Usually, when someone asks “what is your background”, you give an easy and understandable answer. Here goes mine. I have an associate, a bachelor, and a master degree in business administration with over ten years experience in marketing and advertising; also, an associate degree in interior design, which I got six years after my master. I have been in fitness since 1984, certified since 1994, and full-time since 1998. And LOVING it!

A Father’s Commitment to Exercise

“I propose to do, for a period of an hour and in the afternoon for at least 3 days a week, the following exercises: walk at the minimum speed my body allows and for a total of 10 minutes minimum. With an initial weight of 20 pounds, at the weight machine, do leg flexions in sets of 5 and 4 repetitions.”
-Salvador Perez Mayol

A commitment my father hand-wrote on March 23, 2008 before traveling to his last hospital appointment. I loved his determination; because, he wrote it without me asking. He has always been very athletic and always looked younger than his age. Upon his return, he could not comply; because, he, unexpectedly, passed away on the 15th of April.

He didn’t have the time; but, you certainly do. If you take time to brush your teeth, you can commit time to work on conditioning your body’s muscles and strengthening your bone structure. Essential combination for the performance of regular daily activities. Remember, your current, or future, family depends on you for your loving care and support. So, you should be responsible for taking care of your health.





Still loving you, Daddy...
