What an interesting month I have finished a great book THE GENIUS OF FLEXIBILITY By Bob Cooley I suggest anyone interested in flexibility and a great new way to stretch to check this book out. I am so excited to stretch now this stretching method feels just the way stretching should have. I learned ways to work on my flexibility that I had never understood before. I have taken on some more fitness courses that I am looking forward to finishing. I am still driving forward with business ideas. It is really tough trying to fit a 40 hour work week, training, and school while trying to get a fitness business up and running. I am up for this challenge. Speaking of challenges as I am trying to bring all the confusion and chaos in my life under control I learned a great lesson from my teacher. I had talked about how to correct some thoughts his answer to me was just do it. There was a long conversation and he said something and I answered I would try. I thought about that and realized that I use I try as an excuse so that if I fail I can justify it. I find that if I use I will in place I can only succeed. I have not failed with this thought yet. For this month I am reading a book called THE OTHER MINDS EYE By: Alllen C Sargent. It is very interesting so far it is about nlp and reworking our thoughts into a positive way. That is all for now. We really do want to publish what interests you so let us know. We will be moving forward with all our plans and will be updating regularly. Please come back and view the edge regularly.

Remember we are still looking for people to write articles and submit information. Feel free to email any questions or concerns to: tthomas@warriorsrealm.net

Have you ever met someone who has such a friendly disposition that he or she is able to almost instantly make friends with people, even in a room full of strangers? This type of person is normally known as a people person and is genuinely charismatic and charming and can have a positive influence on anyone who comes into their contact.

A person with this natural charm is able to earn trust and support of the people and, because of this, is able to achieve greatness. He is always able to get help and can do anything because of the flood of people in his social circle…in other words, he is able to maximize his social potential.

So, if you are aware of your social skills and you use them, you will attain a state of self-empowerment. Self-empowerment is about recognizing your social attributes and using them to turn yourself into a happier and more successful person. If you can become a people person, and we all can, you can be successful. You just need to know how to get started on this journey of self-empowerment.

1. The first step is to be genuine.

Hypocrisy will just bring you all the way down. Be genuinely nice and interested to people. Once they perceive that you are a hypocrite with selfish intentions, you might as well say goodbye to self-empowerment.

2. Learn to be a great listener.

One of the most proven ways to earn love and trust from people is to be open to listening to their problems. This doesn’t just mean hearing them out but truly listening. Treat this person as though everything they are saying is important, and it is. When they find out they can confide in them, they will trust you without doubt.

3. Don’t forget to have a sense of humor

This does not mean that you must laugh at every joke someone cracks but simply to not take everything in life too seriously. People with a great sense of humor can normally attract a crowd and eventually, success.

4. Remember to look after yourself as well as others.

In the process of fluttering around like a social butterfly, you might forget yourself, allowing everyone to push you over. Remember, love and value yourself before anyone else. If you deem yourself respectable and worthy of affection, people will flock to you and not trample on you.

5. Be kind to others.

Remember, it’s the little things that matter the most and a simple gesture such as helping an elderly or infirm person across a busy street is all it takes. It’s not that long ago that kindness was taught and practiced as a matter of course. Perhaps its time to revive these good deeds.

6. Make contact with old friends.

Sad how some friendships are destined to goodbye, but thanks to technology, you can do something about it. Relive the good old days by flipping your yearbook and look for the great people whom you want to communicate with again. Adding these old friends to your roster of support peers will surely make you feel good all over.

7. Cultivate your temperament.

Look at what traits you have that are holding you back. Do your friends see you as a grouch? A grumpy disposition can only hamper your growth. After all, nobody wants grumpy friends around.

8. Confidence not arrogance.

It’s great to be able to go around a roomful of strangers and introduce yourself to people with that winning smile. Just be sure it is confidence, not cockiness or arrogance.

9. Practice self control.

In order to have a positive effect on people’s view of you, you must show that you can be relied upon to remain calm and collected. If a person thinks your anger takes on volcanic proportions, they will immediately find it difficult to approach you and then you have lost that trust you have nurtured.

10. Nurture the relationships with those you care about.

The most precious relationships you have will be with the significant others in your life such as family and friends. Enjoy your time with them and never take them for granted. You will always know happiness with those you love close by you.

Ultimately, using people for self-empowerment means becoming a better and more lovable person. It's a win-win situation: the people know they can turn to you anytime and vice versa.

So what does mean “fitness” and what stands for “aerobic” after all? Under the word fitness we should understand the state of wellbeing of a person. Your physical fitness is formed by a set of many different body capabilities like endurance, strength, flexibility, and coordination. Fitness is not only the physical health, but also mental health of a person along with self awareness and emotional satisfaction. So now we see that in general fitness is a state when mind, body and soul are in touch one with each other and what is more - souls do fit the bodies and live in harmony.

The term aerobic along with the exercise was invented by K. Copper from the U.S. Air Force in 1969. All his thoughts were documented in his book called “Aerobics”. All the data from the book became the baseline for all aerobic fitness programs that are based on oxygen consumption equivalency.

Talking about the term “aerobic” I can say that it is the most important factor of physical fitness. The origin of this word is Latin and the meaning is following: “aero” means oxygen (air), and “bic” is for bio (life). So any physical activity that requires the intake of oxygen could be called aerobic exercise. All aerobic fitness exercises must maintain increased heart rate and that is why such activity is almost the same as cardio exercises. There are also obvious reasons for this: exercises strengthen lungs and heart, increase cardiac capacity and use body fat and carbohydrates and the fuel (energy source).

Of course there are a lot of types of aerobic fitness exercise. All of them build up your endurance and stamina. Forms of exercise include the following: running, swimming, cycling, long distance skiing, power walking, rowing, use of different exercise machines (bikes, treadmills, and others). Actually all aerobic fitness exercises must be performed at high level of intensity and for a long time period. That is why running is considered as aerobic fitness exercise, but sprinting is not. Regular aerobic fitness exercise gives you a lot of health benefits. They are united in a group called “aerobic training effect” and give your body the following: strengthen muscles that are involved in respiration, strengthen heart muscle (that improves blood pumping efficiency), increase the number of red blood cells in the organism. In addition jogging or rope jumping may stimulate bone growth and reduce the risk of osteoporosis. The digestive system is fed more regularly and is cleaned more effectively.

Because of the very close connection between the mind and the body, mental fitness may now be seen to be in many ways equivalent to physical aerobic fitness. People that are in good aerobic condition tend to be more optimistic, more self-confident; more determined and, generally, have a higher energy level and of course a greater lust for life.

The group of aerobic fitness exercise may be divided into two major sub-groups – pre-choreographed aerobics and freestyle aerobics (exercise is linked to dance and choreography).

NUTRITION

Untold Nutritional Secrets
by: Gary Matthews

A good understanding of nutrition and how to use the information will be extremely rewarding for anyone. We can all prevent disease and fight infection utilizing a powerful medicine 'Food' Using nutrition and supplementing your diet is the key to fat loss and muscle gain. Have a look at these Nutritional Secrets and discover how to stay disease free, feel great, look good and live longer.

Lets take a look:

How Much Protein Do I Need - Protein is a normal part of out diet; a nutrient widely distributed among animal and plant foods, and it plays many essential roles in the body. Dietary protein has two possible fates - it can be either used in growth and repair or burned for energy, like carbohydrate and fat. Sedentary person: 0.75 grams/lb/day, Recreational athlete: 1.00 grams/lb/day, Serious athlete: 2.00 grams/lb/day.

Protein Cycling - Since strength training greatly increases the rate at which protein is broken down in the body, it follows that 0.75gms per Pound is inadequate. On the other hand to increase the intake of protein to say, 3.0gm per Pound straight away would trigger mechanisms to eliminate the excess protein.

One way to overcome this is to increase the protein in steps until a maximum efficiency point is reached and then it is drastically reduced. This obliges the body to compensate by increasing the efficiency for the absorption of protein and amino acids.

Why Carbohydrates? - Carbohydrates supply energy to out body, fibre for prevention against disease and taste and texture to food, they are found in cereals, potatoes, fruits and vegetables. Recommended: 4 to 12 grams/lb/day. Over the last 30 years, research into food and blood glucose response has completely changed our carbohydrate classification system.

It has been learned that it is impossible to predict the impact on blood glucose levels by certain foods, instead people are fed carbohydrate foods and the response measured. This response is known as the Glycaemic Index (GI), it is a measure of how quickly carbohydrate foods are digested and absorbed, as indicted by elevated blood glucose. The slower the rate of blood glucose increases the lower the GI.

Super Foods - In the food industry super-foods are called "functional foods". These foods provide a health benefit beyond the simple provision of nutrients or energy, and usually target a specific disease or condition. In most cases media headlines about the disease-fighting capacity of foods are hyped up versions of current research reality. Below is a summary of what some super-foods can and can't do for you.

Vitamins and Minerals - In general an adequate intake of vitamin and minerals can be achieved with a balanced diet. However, there may be a strong rationale for supplementation in specific nutrients.

Herbals - The latest herbal super-stars include Echinacea, gingko, and St John's Wart. They don't pitch themselves as lifesavers, but more as life-maximizes, helping you to get through the day with less disruption from colds, memory failures, blue moods, and more.

Supplements - To supplement or not to supplement, that is the question on more consumers' lips than ever before. There are various reasons why people may be interested in supplementation. Concern about getting adequate nutrients from our food supply. A Suspicion of pharmaceuticals and a belief that diet alone will not achieve optimal nutrition.

Studies suggest that a number of supplements may deliver on advertising claims. However, consumers can spend large sums of money on products that have little or no proven efficacy.

The Bottom Line On Supplements - your diet that might achieve your goals but choose only products that shows the amount of active ingredients on the label. Be aware that "natural" does not mean 'safe'; some herbal supplements may have unpleasant side effects. Don't treat serious medical conditions yourself. Discuss supplement use with your doctor. If you are pregnant or are breast-feeding consult a doctor before taking supplements.

Only Eat the Good Fats - Eat the good fats and feel and look great, Authorities now agree that fat is essential for maintaining optimal health. If good healthy skin and fast metabolism is what your after then you must eat some fat. The good fats are found in fish, nuts and seeds, avocados and cold pressed oils. Avoid fried foods and saturated fats as these raise cholesterol and clog arteries.

Eat A Variety Of Foods - For protection from the majority of illnesses such as heart disease and cancer you need a variety of foods that deliver that mix of nutrients and minerals. Aim to eat different coloured fruits and vegetables.

Try to eat a different food each month. Eat an apple a day as the apple pectin cleanses the body's digestive system by removing toxins and therefore preventing degenerative health problems such as cancer.

In conclusion, I am sure if you can apply even just a few of these tips to your everyday eating habits I am pretty sure you will see the results in the not to distant future.

Personal Security Awareness
By Jimmie Newell

It is a sad commentary on our society that we should even have to worry about our own personal security. Unfortunately there really are people who watch our every move, just to see if we will let our guard down, even for a moment, that is when they will make their move.

The buzz words are Identity Theft, ATM Security, and Internet Fraud, and there are many, many more scams with new ones coming to light all the time. However lets just talk a little about being aware of those 3, some of the ways they work, and how we can combat them.

Identity Theft can happen many ways, the risks are very real, however with the formation of a few judicious habits, we can go a long way toward prevention of this crime of opportunity.

Cut down on the number of credit cards you carry, and never give the number over the phone or Internet, unless you have purposely initiated the transaction.
Never give out your social security number.
Buy a paper shredder and use it to shred all personal trash from your home or business.
Never include address information on your key ring.
By very careful with the personal information you give to anyone you don't know, it takes very little information for the unscrupulous people in our midst to start building their new identity to match you.

ATM Security
Find out from your financial institution if video surveillance is being used at the ATM machines you typically use.
By very careful that someone standing near you cannot see you enter your pin number.

Internet Fraud
Never open an email attachment from someone you are not familiar with, or were not expecting to receive.
Never give personal information on a web site if you did not initiate the contact via a link you have used to contact that company before. I get at least 1 or 2 scam emails a day, that look exactly like the real thing, no matter how convincing they sound, almost no legitimate company or financial institution will ever send you an email asking for account numbers or any other personal information, most will not ask you to clink a link within that email. if they ask you to contact them, be sure you enter a link you trust.
If you accept credit cards over the internet, be very wary of multiple orders from the same person using different cards, they are almost always stolen.
