8 Super Simple Steps to a NEW Green Diet

8 Simple Steps to a New Green Diet Nowhere does the win/win of green living for health and the environment show up more than when one chooses to eat the foods of a green diet. This diet is the old and timeless one of eating real food grown locally in well-tended soil, with some adaptations for modern life. Some might say this is the original diet, the way we (humans) were meant to eat. I just call it common sense for longevity of a great life, not a short mediocre life. Here are the steps to living a greener, healthier, longer life ==> http://empowerednutrition.com/8-super-simple-steps-to-a-new-green-diet…

TRX for Mountain Biking

TRX for Mountain Biking Watch This Workout --> http://empowerednutrition.com/trx-for-mountain-biking Let’s face it. If you’re like us, you’d rather be out on the trail this weekend than in the gym. Ripping some sweet singletrack sounds much better than pumping iron and besides, you’ve tried “lifting weights,” but you didn’t really notice any difference on the trail. If you’re going to invest some of your precious time into something, you’d better be able to ride faster, longer and with more confidence. However, we’re going to share a secret with you: the fastest way to getting better on your bike is through strength training, not just riding your bike more. The trick is to do the right kind of strength training that will build “trail strength,” not just some random “gym strength.” If you base your program on increasing body awareness and strength-to-weight ratio, you’ll see a marked increase in your ability to muscle up climbs, bomb through rock gardens and basically dominate the trail.

Fat Burning Frappucino Protein Smoothie

Fat Burning Frappacino Protein Smoothie www.empowerednutrition.com/fat-burning-frappucino-protein-smoothie This has to be one of the BEST Protein Smoothie taste sensations ever. If your Greek its the old school "frap" flavor that gets you. For me, it sends me back to sitting on the beach in the French island of Course. This one is especially delicious when you use the right instant coffee. For a more chocolate flavor use 1% Chocolate Milk. All I can say is "ahhh...mmmm". Add these ingredients to the blender (ice cubes first), set it on high and blend for 30-60 seconds or desired consistency. Enjoy this one chilled in a frosted glass on a hot summer day and you will be sure to increase the fat burning from your recent Fat Blasting Workout. www.empowerednutrition.com/fat-burning-frappucino-protein-smoothie…

FAQ – Getting Rid of Love Handles

FAQ – Getting Rid of Love Handles I just got another question that I get a lot of the time and thought perhaps you would find it of use. This one has three components to losing love handles; Nutrition, Exercise and Weird Science. Joe asked me: “hey Patrick, I had a question what is the best thing for getting rid of love handles but still maintaining your weight? i want to gain weight but build muscle not fat. I seem to do so pretty well but that one section seems to always be more than I want.” And below you can read my response to what Joe has said and take it or leave, it, but know this, if you apply these tactics you will tighten your abs and make the hated love handles go bye-bye.
