Archimedes Leverage in Real Life

admin — Fri, 18 May 2012 11:49:02 +0000

Why Archimedes and his principle of leverage can add ten years to your life.

A lot of people think you have to be a “gym rat” in order to get physically fit. Or that you have to eat like a rabbit in order to stay healthy.

Could you stand to eat more veggies in your daily diet? Sure.

Do you need an exercise regimen that you actually love rather than hate? Sure. You’d grab that in a heartbeat.

So I mention Archimedes who said, “Give me a lever long enough and a place to stand, and I will move the world.” That is the power of leverage.

The power of the lever.

Archimedes made many more observations that have been recorded and referred to over the centuries but this one principle is worth its weight in gold. Weight in gold? Did you pay attention in sixth grade?

(Yes, you are correct if you conjured up and image from sixth grade about the experiment about the king’s crown of gold. That too was Archimedes, his eureka moment in the bath tub. Did they really have bathtubs in ancient Greece? I guess they did.)

With the deck stacked against us as a population with nutritional “deserts” cropping up in urban white collar work areas, where only junk food is plentiful, while we become more and more sedentary and cerebral in our “work”, we have to resort to the mathematician of antiquity for a solution.

Over the last 50 years scientists, biologists, chemists and even undisciplined entrepreneurs have made advances that are simply life-altering. Their knowledge is freely available to you and me thanks to the researchers at Google and other think banks (that’s not a typo), thanks to the accessibility of the Internet to the masses. It’s a lever. With it you can yield tremendous influence over your own life and the lives of others.

What the heck am I talking about?

It’s about getting yourself into a position of mastery using “cheats”. The lever is a cheat. It’s a machine that lessens work and affords maximum advantage.

I’ve got an amusing story that illustrates this. I like to canoe and kayak. (Hint: Do stuff that’s fun, you don’t have to be a gym rat.) It makes Archimedian sense to take my kayak paddle with me in the kayak because with it I can skim across the top of the water at amazing speed! I can really get somewhere.

The other day, I pulled up to the bulk head and tossed my paddle up on the bank. But I had nowhere to hold on to, to get myself out of the kayak and as soon as I let go I was drifting back out without my paddle, my lever, my “cheat”! All I had were my puny hands and I was paddling away with them trying to get back to shore. I managed. It looked pretty funny. But let me tell you the kayak paddle lessens work and makes me look good. Without it, I looked really, really lame.

“Cheats” may not be a word in your vocabulary but ask anyone under the age of 25 what a “cheat” is. It’s a way to beat the system. It’s a way to get to a destination quicker. It’s a shortcut in “gaming” that allows players to beat the system.

So here’s your nutritional cheat sheet: “Eat real food, not too much, mostly plants.” Ok it’s more of a formula than a cheat. The cheat comes now. Use a real plant based multi vitamin, and take it 3 times a day with every meal. So it takes a few seconds out of your busy day to actually swallow a pill, a tablet or to mix a powder into a glass of water. Your body is comprised of about ten trillion cells. Within any given day you are going to eat some fat, some carbohydrates and some protein, those are your macro nutrients. Later, I will give you cheats for those but this plant based multi is addressing the MICRO nutrients which are the little Archimedian- like levers that allow you body to function like the well-crafted machine it is meant to be!

No, I will not go in the biochemistry of every internal system that operates within your body and try to prove that zinc and magnesium are important. Your electric company doesn’t dissect and explain the intricacies of electricity. You just flip the switch and the light, the fan and the television come on.

If you are able to eat “real food” then do it. If you must subsist at times on food-like substances churned out by fast food companies, then take the multi mix, the vitamin with your meal. It’s the difference between racing across the water in your kayak and looking “pro” or trying to make the kayak move by paddling with your hands, which makes you look really “lame”. Don’t be lame, be a pro.

Vickey asks, “What do you have to compare to Res-Q 1250?”

admin — Sat, 12 May 2012 11:56:22 +0000

Hi Vickey,

This is Garey Simmons.

You called in asking about what we have that is equivalent to Res-Q 1250.

It’s the perfect question and fortunately we have the perfect answer.

It’s True Omega-3.

I wrote a full page about the similarities and you can read about it here.

We were formerly selling Res-Q 1250 but parted ways in January of 2011.

Unfortunately, the company took away our ability to discount for seniors, veterans, and loyalty customers.

We were without a doubt one of the largest resellers of Res-Q for about 5 years.

We learned a lot from working with Res-Q. Some things we modeled, some things we took away as lessons of what not to do.

Basically Res-Q1250 is about 65% epa/dha, the active ingredients in Omega-3s that are beneficial and essential to human health.

True Omega-3 brand is 70% epa/dha. Res-Q packs 200 capsules per bottle.

True Omega-3, we pack 240 per bottle.

We are always priced better than Res-Q especially wtih our veterans, seniors and loyalty programs.

Wishing you health and vitality,

Garey Simmons
CEO
Optimal Health Bridge.

Practical Guide to a Healthy Weight For You!

admin — Fri, 04 May 2012 15:09:56 +0000

You may have heard Dr. Oz talking about Raspberry Ketones. Or was it 7-Kyto? Low fat? But Dr. Oz said to take omega-3 fish oil. Isn’t that just pure fat? “Was it low carb, slow carb or no carb,” Can you remember? You want to be healthy but really you want to look nice and trim. But then there is that mirror thing and you don’t like what you see.

We are suffering from diet industry information overload. There are about a thousand serious diet books published every year. We are awash in information. But then the mirror thingee.

Whatever you believe about diets is totally true. All diets “work” and all diets “fail”. The variable is you. Some diets are structured in a healthy way, others induce unhealthy habits and results.

But it’s not your fault. Let’s put at least 80% of the blame for poor results on society and junk food.

What is a healthy weight for you? Do you have a goal? Do want to reach your goal? There are two things you need:

1. Strategy
2. Accountability

Let’s talk strategy first: It usually take 4 walls to make the room you are in right now, unless you are in the pentagon. So with health in general there are four pillars that comprise health.

1. Mind State trumps all. Your thoughts, your attitude, your beliefs trump all other factors. Thoughts lead to feelings; feelings lead to actions and actions lead to results. Look in the mirror. What are your results? Work backwards and find out what you are really thinking. Need help? Yoga, meditation, reading: good. TV, couch: bad.

Exercise: Your body is a functional machine. Many of your body’s mechanisms require movement in order to work properly. Not just your muscles, not just your joints, not just your bones but even your immunity system needs movement, digestion requires movement. Your lymph system is hydraulic and needs movement. What’s the best exercise: a. swimming b. walking c. functional resistance exercises (weights or bands)

Diet: You are what you eat. Many of the modern day junk foods are comprised of molecular components your DNA has never encountered before and simply does not know how to handle them. Processed foods of all sorts baffle the liver. We could call these food-like substances. Then there is sugar overload. The average American consumes about 150 lbs of sugar a year. A hundred years ago is was 8 lbs. Best tip I can give you is to shop the perimeter of the supermarket where the fresh foods are located: Vegetables should comprise more than 50% of your diet. Then fruits, meats and dairy are all on the perimeter of your local food store. Choice the highest quality you can afford. “Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.” -Michael Pollan. That famous quotation about sums up the complexity as simply as possible.

Last pillar: Sleep. A good night’s sleep is the reprieve you need to de-stress from the weirdness of modern life. Eight hours is ideal. Many body functions are reset and regenerated through deep sleep. Tips: Darken the room. Hide any electronics with blinking lights, including your cell phone, laptop, alarm clock, etc. Don’t watch TV or do computer work for at least an hour before you want to sleep.

Now accountability: This has to do with your non-diet parts of your nutrition. How are your relationships? What are the most important things to you in life? Who are in your circle of five people closest to you who are helping you to be a better you? Answering these questions may require the help of a health coach. Find someone who is detached and can give you honest feedback. Then you will find your ideal weight just for you.

Health and Fitness Are Kissing Cousins

admin — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 12:30:21 +0000

Health and fitness are kissing cousins. They are very closely related yet there is a clear distinction.

Here’s the formula: H+F=W

If you add health and fitness together you get well-being.

It gets especially confusing though if you think in terms of weight control, weight management or even worse: weight loss.

There are so many ways and theories and practices in the realm of losing weight, but I have to say blatantly that most of them are not healthy!

“But my doctor said I need to lose weight to get healthy.”

Yes that may very well be true, unfortunately there are a lot ways to lose weight that are completely detrimental to health!

Fad diets target rapid weight loss which usually amounts to loss of water weight, then muscle loss and if you are lucky some fat loss. It’s not what it looks like on the outside.

A healthy program targets fat loss without muscle loss. A healthy program would ensure you do not lose muscle but rather tone, condition and build an appropriate amount of muscle for your functional needs.

Did you know you can lose dress sizes or pants sizes without actually losing weight?

It’s true.

Muscle weighs more than fat.

So it’s entirely possible to lose fat, build muscle and wind up ending the same as before you started a program yet be able to fit better into those skinny jeans.

Most fitness coaches have a lot on the ball in terms of exercise and are able to set you up in a program to tend to your strength training, aerobics and conditioning. They should have a least a smattering of health knowledge especially in advising which foods can affect fitness training.

Health coaches on the other hand, have exposure to a broad spectrum of nutritional theories and usually minor in exercise and fitness. A good health coach lets you lead and acts as an accountability partner to help you reach your goals.

The human condition is such that a holistic approach is the one that is best. All systems are connected and reliant upon neighboring systems and processes. To ignore this fact leads to temporary fixes but not real long term solutions to health challenges.

It helps in the long run, to determine proper goals with overall well-being in mind. Work from the inside out. Being beautiful and healthy on the inside will translate into being beautiful and fit on the outside.

The Artist’s Way – Morning Pages – Finding Your Creativity

admin — Sun, 29 Apr 2012 20:41:09 +0000

I just listened to a lecture by Julie Cameron, the author of The Artist’s Way, speaking about Spiritual Creativity.

As human beings, like it or not, we are creative beings.

Do you think that health has anything to do with your creativity and your spiritual nature?

In a previous post, I mentioned the four key pillars of health: Mind State, Exercise, Diet and Sleep. (MEDS)

You are a creative being, my dear friends.

I am a creative being, even though I don’t usually think of myself as such.

For most of us, we usually don’t take the time or think we have time. We tend to squelch the artist within.

Answer these questions:

What did your mother think of art when you were growing up?

What did your father think of art when you were growing up?

What art forms did you practice as a child?

What art forms do you practice now?

It’s kind of a shock, isn’t it?

I hope the answers to these questions are instructive to you, as they were to me.

For me, I realized that art is severely neglected in my life. I can appreciate it when I see it. But I really don’t know much about it, but I am going to make a point of finding out more!

Morning Pages

Morning pages as discovered and taught by Julie Cameron are the means of unblocking spiritual creativity in your life. Here’ s the rules:

1. First thing in the morning, write 3 pages longhand every morning.

2. These are private for your eyes only, not to be shared with anyone.

3. You are free to write exactly what you feel. “I am tired. I am grumpy. I am scared.” Just let it go, let if flow. Usually the first page and a half turns out to be “the clearing”, then the 2nd half begins to have a golden guild to it.

Morning pages are three pages of writing (long hand) anything that comes to your head. Julia Cameron suggests that you make Morning Pages a practice that you keep every day while you are working through The Artist’s Way, and hopefully, beyond.
When I first read about Morning Pages, my first thoughts were…Everyday? 3 pages? Only by hand? She’s GOT to be kidding! What will I write about? The point to Morning Pages isn’t to write incredible, novel-quality prose. The writing you do in your Morning Pages may not even be suitable for a letter to a friend! It’s the little bits and pieces that run around in your head out of control. The words may not even piece together into full sentences. What you write doesn’t have to make sense to any person on the face of the planet — or even to yourself a few days later. It’s really a practice of clear and getting in touch with the essence of … you. I invite you to start the practice!

More Exercises

1. If didn’t have to do it perfectly, I’d try…
(answer this sentence five times!)

2. List five things you absolutely love…

3. Once a week, go out by yourself and explore a new cuisine.

Ten Reasons To Exercise

admin — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 23:19:27 +0000

The other day a friend learned my age and said, “No way. I thought you were in your forties.” Now it’s great for a bald man to get this kind of notice, but it’s only because I own dogs and they have to walk everyday. So that means I do too. I also lived in 3rd world, poor countries for decades which means I ate natural foods. Processed foods were luxuries we usually couldn’t afford or even find. I am grateful for my health and vitality. Of course, that diagnosis of heart disease in 2005 had a lot to do with it. It propelled me into a new and better healthy lifestyle. It’s all about what you do with your food and your feet.

Before I share the ten most recognized benefits of exercise, some common sense prelude:

1. Do what you love. In the realm of exercise this is most important. Programs of exercise come and go, but the ones you will stick to are the ones you really enjoy. So get out there and try some different things to see what it is you love. Who would’ve guessed that after 7 years I would still be attending my weekly yoga class?

2. Don’t overdo it. Nothing worse for adherence to an exercise program than an injury that takes you out of the game. Use your own judgement and do what’s right for you. My lifelong motto, “Everything in moderation.” You can leave the super hero stuff for super heroes. Now, if you have a calling to be a top athlete, excellent. More power to you. For the 99%, stay safe.

3. Lastly, be an accountability partner for someone else and let someone else be an accountability partner for you. You won’t know how powerful it is, how beneficial it is until you try it. It’s exponential in effect.

4. The most often heard excuse is “I don’t have time.” If you work in an office, may I show you how to get a workout in before lunch, without leaving your office chair? Abe Exercise

Be well,

Garey

Exercise may be the closest thing to the fountain of youth. Not only does regular activity strengthen your muscles and improve heart and lung function, but it can also reduce your risk of major diseases, stimulate the growth of new brain cells, and even add years to your life. Studies show just 30 minutes of physical activity on most days is all that’s required to reap big benefits.
The range of health bonuses now attributed to exercise has surprised even doctors. Research suggests that workouts may do the following:
1. Keep you young. Workouts such as brisk walking or cycling boost the amount of oxygen consumed during exercise. Improving your aerobic capacity by just 15 to 25 percent would be like shaving 10 to 20 years off your age. Aerobic exercise may also stimulate the growth of new brain cells in older adults.
2. Reduce infections. Moderate workouts temporarily rev-up the immune system by increasing the aggressiveness or capacity of immune cells. That may explain why people who exercise catch fewer colds.
3. Prevent heart attacks. Not only does exercise raise “good” HDL cholesterol and lower blood pressure, but new research shows it reduces arterial inflammation, another risk factor for heart attacks and strokes.
4. Ease asthma. New evidence shows that upper-body and breathing exercises can reduce the need to use an inhaler in mild cases of asthma.
5. Control blood sugar. Exercise helps to maintain a healthy blood-sugar level by increasing the cells’ sensitivity to insulin and by controlling weight. Regular brisk walking can significantly cut the risk of developing (adult onset) type 2 diabetes.
6. Protect against cancer. Exercise may reduce the risk of colon-cancer by speeding waste through the gut and lowering the insulin level. It may also protect against breast and prostate cancer by regulating hormone levels.
7. Combat stress. Regular aerobic exercise lowers levels of stress hormones. For many people, exercise helps relieve depression as effectively as antidepressant medication.
8. Relieve hot flashes. Increasing fitness by walking or practicing yoga enhances mood and reduces some menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes and night sweats.
9. Protect men’s health. Pelvic exercises help prevent erectile dysfunction and possibly benign prostate enlargement, a common cause of urinary problems.
10. Prolong life. Studies lasting many years have consistently shown that being active cuts the risk of premature death by about 50 percent for men and women.
