On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy opened the show with Marta Montenegro with SobeFit magazine. So far Marta’s Montenegro Method has helped us lose over 20 lbs so far. As always she gave us some great weight loss advice and support. She explained that by making small changes and sticking with them until they become a habit before moving onto the next change will help us stay compliant and stick to our plan longer. She said that if we have reached a plateau we should change up our routine. That means we should increase the intensity or duration of our workouts or decrease the number of calories we are eating. She said it is not okay to binge on the weekends, if we are getting tired of eating the same thing day after day we should change up the foods but not increase the calories. She explained the importance of pre-planning. By always having a healthy snack with you you can resist the urge to go through a drive through or raid the vending machine. And at restaurants choose the healthy option and avoid the creamy soups or salad dressing. Subscribe to the best fitness magazine in America at www.sobefitmagazine.

Lou Paradise’s Doctor Recommended Safe Pain Reliever Topricin

On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy had on Lou Paradise with Topricin, Dr Fitness’ favorite pain reliever healing cream. Lou developed Topricin when he couldn’t find relief for his carpal tunnel syndrome. He didn’t like those menthol products that stain your clothes and sometimes burn so he developed his own solution. Topricin is a doctor recommended pain reliever that works because it doesn’t just mask the pain and it uses no volatile oils. This is a great alternative to prescription and non-prescription over the counter stinky pain relieving medications. It can be used throughout the day as much as you’d like because it is made with 11 homeopathic medicines that are safe and effective for pretty much everyone (elderly, children, pregnant women and people with all skin types). Since Topricin doesn’t mask the pain symptoms and actually helps the body heal, you may shorten the amount of time you need to use it. This anti-inflammatory pain reliever and healing cream is available in most healthy sections of stores but you can go online to their website www.topricin.com to find a store near you.

Desi also shared some great tips about how to choose a yoga studio.
