   Online Training is the new realm of exercising. With the internet readily available, you can access all types of videos and content that can help you. Now, Personal Trainers have taken another step forward by offering their services online.

   The world is becoming more connected by the day, and the benefits to that are enormous. With the fast-paced and busy world we live in today, being able to workout on the go is the new way to exercise. Below are 3 of the many benefits of online training.

  • Train On the Go - People are busy, and when they get home from work they don't want to leave the house to go to the gym. With an online trainer, they can pull up the workouts on their computer or phone at home and workout whenever they want.

  • You Save Money - Personal Trainers can create workout plans and videos for their clients without the drive time or hour long sessions each day by using online systems. Since they can help more people and not have to pay for space to train, they charge less. You'll get the same workouts without spending money on gas or spending more for being at the gym. 

  • Everything is Connected - Companies like Trainerize that our gym works with, combines a multitude of apps together so all of your information is in one place. Your cardio regiments, running, workouts, heart rates, etc are recorded by the sites and available to be viewed by you and your trainer. Now you can show the trainer what you're doing or not doing on a regular basis.

    Online training is an excellent way to exercise at home, at the office or while travelling. This method saves you money and time. Additionally, specific sites will connect all the things you do in the day so your trainer can best assess the perfect regiment for you. 

   Unless you need someone right next to you to exercise, I recommend you give online training a shot.

   The first article is called "How Sedentary Time May Raise Heart Disease Risk" by the American Heart Association in Science Daily. In this article, it explains that even though you may be exercising, being sedentary for too long on a daily basis can negatively affect your heart and blood vessels.

Make Sure It Works, Not Hurts

Make Sure It Works, Not Hurts
http://www.mensjournal.com/expert-advice/the-6-most-dangerous-fitness-myths-20150305/no-pain-no-gain
   
   A client that works with one of our trainers talked to her about a class she's taking. It's an old-school class that consists of repetitive workouts and static holds (An example would be doing a leg lift exercise for a minute or more). The client feels it's making a difference, but it's hurting her in the process. 

   The client has rheumatoid arthritis, and those types of workouts are heavy on the joints which causes pain in the affected areas. Can it be an effective exercise for some, yes. But, you shouldn't be doing those exercises if you're hurting yourself in the process.

   The amazing thing about working out is that there are multitudes of ways to exercise a specific or set of muscles. If there is an exercise that you are unhappy with or are hurting from, change it. 

   There is a way that you can make a difference in your body without causing pain. If you can't think of one, personal trainers are around to assist you.

   Our trainer sat the client down and was frank with her. "You only have those joints", she warned, "Be happy with replacing them, or choose a different exercise that works for you". 

   Clients need to understand that these are serious issues that can cause massive pain, which decreases their chances of being able to keep healthy in the future. Please, think about your body and make sure it's the right workout for you.

You Don't Need A Trainer Do You?

You Don't Need A Trainer Do You?: Man Training Woman
Found on Ethno Gym
http://ethnogym-erbil.com/fitness-training-ethnogym-erbil/personal-training/
   With all of the free workout videos on YouTube and advise from virtual communities, you don't need a personal trainer! Unfortunately, that's wrong.

   There are a plethora of things in this world that you'd want to have an expert there to do. Today I had a plumber come in to fix my shower. Could I have bought the same machines that he used and tried to unclog the pipe? Sure, but that would take more money and time than it would for this plumber to come in and do it for me.

How to store and use Flax Seed


How to Store and Use Flax Seed

    Flax Seeds have many benefits if we ingest them properly. A few of these benefits include sources of Vit B-1, micro nutrients, the essential fatty acid Omega-3 (For all the vegetarians and vegans out there, this is a great way to get these fats to replace salmon), and dietary fiber.

    Flax is supposed to be ground and passes right through our system if it is still in its shell. A great way to eat the flax is to ground the shells (with a coffee grinder, blender, ect) and incorporate them in some Greek Yogurt or into a Protein Shake. It's preferable to use what you ground that day, but if kept in a tightly sealed container it can be stored in the freezer for a short amount of time before going rancid.

    Here's a link below to other ideas and talk on the subject. Have a happy and healthy day!
