Shaq’s Pal Dr Elizabeth Lombardo Explains How To Be A Happy You

00:00 /

On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy had on Dr Elizabeth Lombardo who explained to our listeners that the secret to staying compliant to your fitness and exercise program is to get a smaller “BUT” She says we all know that exercise is important BUT we always come up with an excuse not to do it. She explains that the missing ingredient to your fitness or weight loss program is your brain. You have to change how you think in order to lose weight and maintain the weight loss. Some great tips were: write a list of the pro’s and con’s of exercising vs not exercising; be mindful with your eating; don’t take an all or nothing approach – 5 minutes of exercise is better than no minutes plus the minutes add up over the course of the day. Your goal is to make exercise a daily habit like brushing your teeth – something you do without thinking that is integrated into your life. Check out Elizabeth’s new book A Happy You: Your Ultimate Prescription for Happiness at her website www.ahappyyou.com and find your big “Why” – the motivation that will help you change your behavior for the long run!

Humiliating Physical Education Experiences

00:00 /

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain how Physical Education humiliation can affect you later in life. Did you know that being embarrassed in phys ed can haunt you later in life causing you to hate exercise and become less active. PE should focus on connecting physical activity with fun for your child. But some PE teachers are frustrated drill sergeants and take that out on the kids. If you want your child to love activity then it might be a good idea to take a peek in his/her PE class. Make sure they are leaving some time for unstructured play and that the class is not too over organized. And be sure the instructor is not using embarrassment or humiliation as a motivating tool to get the kids moving. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
