ULTIMATE WORKOUT GUIDE

One of the oldest forms of Chinese medicine is acupuncture. The Chinese discovered that the body responded to healing itself when certain trigger points were activated. One branch of this is the use of acupressure in place of needles. Acupressure uses gentle pressure to stimulate the energy flow throughout the body. The most advanced massage chairs have now incorporated many new technologies based on these ancient forms of Chinese medicine.

You may have seen some of the acupressure maps made of the human body. They show various points along certain pathways of how the body is interrelated. These points are known as trigger points. The trigger points help to regulate the energy flow in the body. Sometimes these trigger points can become blocked. Acupressure massage applies a given technique to release the flow for given trigger points. These techniques are know to bring the recipient harmony and wellbeing.

Many of the best massage chair brands like Panasonic, Omega and Sanyo include a body scan technology to accurately identify an individual persons acupressure points. The software then adjusts the massage for each person. There are over 300 acupressure points that have been identified throughout the body. Acupressure uses these trigger points to manipulate the flow of energy throughout the body and to help to remove blockages.

These massage recliners take a reading of your back as the acupressure massage is activated. The computer in the chair takes in all the information. It will then, processes it and then create a program just for you. The recliner knows how to manipulate the most critical trigger points and knows the precise location of your points. The massage recliner runs a customized massage just like a massage therapist. These acupressure massages are very effective in revitalizing your body and spirit.

To help you relax some massage chairs incorporate other features to compliment the acupressure massage. Most spas have soft meditative music to help the mind to relax and get away from thinking about the stresses of the day. Some massage chairs have MP3 players built in with headphones to help you to relax. You can also find heat therapy, where there are heating elements constructed into the chair. Heat helps to reduce swelling and increase blood flow.

The utilization of acupressure improves lymph flow. The lymph system is the cleaner of last resort. What the blood does not clean is left for the lymph system. Acupressure helps to flush more toxins from the system. You may not know that acupressure also provides these benefits:

Increases in alertness; Higher levels of energy; Lower anxiety; Decreases in Toxins

Acupressure massage has been used for centuries in many ancient societies. Now technology has made acupressure massage both cost effective and accessible to everyone with massage chairs. Massage chairs are actually a very cost effective means to obtain acupressure massage. The real benefits of acupressure massage come with receiving it on a periodic basis. Just like any health related treatment, it must be performed through time. Having a massage chair recliner in your home provides you with access and a low cost means of obtaining acupressure massage on a routine basis.

Most women dread bingo wings. Nothing is more unsightly than an arm that keeps on waving after you’ve stopped.

Now if you’re really serious about getting rid of bingo wings, you have to make sure that you’re getting a full nights rest every night. An abrupt sleep schedule will cause many metabolic changes that will make getting rid of bingo wings like pushing a boulder up a hill.

In fact, poor sleep alone has the ability to completely thwart your sexy arm journey.

So here are some sleep tips to help you get rid of those bingo wings:

1. Let high intensity light hit your retina. The retina of your eyes have special receptors for light. If you let high intensity light hit them in the morning, you’ll have more energy and be able to sleep on a much more regular schedule. Use a light box or a SAD day light for best results.

2. Chronotherapy. If you’re going to sleep extremely late and you find it impossible to wake up early, then you’re better off rotating forward. Sleep three hours later every day until you hit the right time. Then force yourself to wake up at the same time every day or else you’ll keep going forward.

3. Get a little hungry. Having a minute caloric drop towards the end of the day will do wonders for your quality of sleep. Not only will you go to sleep faster but you’ll sleep much deeper. Just make sure you aren’t too hungry or else you won’t be able to fall asleep.

4. Consider a standing desk. Being sedentary slows down the buildup of a sleep chemical in your brain and also keeps your body temperature lower. Both of which translate into poor sleep. So consider getting a standing desk. You could start off by using the standing desk for half the day and then sit down for the other half. Experiment and slowly increase time standing.

Not only will sleep affect your mood, but it will also dictate whether or not you can get rid of those bingo wings. In this day and age, because of technology, it has become very hard for the average woman to get a good night of sleep. So apply this information TODAY, not tomorrow.

Nutrition for getting sexy arms isn’t too complex. Especially if you ignore all the fads.

There are, however, certain situations when basic nutrition won’t do. You have to take things a bit further or you run the risk of not being able to get sexy arms.

One tricky area is when you exercise very early in the morning. Since your body is coming out of a fasted state, you have to be very precise with your nutrition.

So here is your early morning nutrition guide for getting rid of fat arms:

1. Drink water before anything else. You have to rehydrate your dehydrated body ASAP. You also need to drink enough water so that you can digest breakfast.

2. If you’re going to exercise 3 hours after waking up. Have a full breakfast with food items from the following groups: protein, carbohydrates, fat and vegetables. This is the schedule I personally recommend.

3. If you’re going to exercise 1 hour after waking up. Have two slices of whole grain bread with some type of nut butter like peanut butter. The bread will give your body much needed fuel and the peanut butter will slow down the digestion of the bread.

4. If you’re going to exercise 10 minutes after waking up. Have some type of carbohydrate supplement like Gu energy gel. Or you could have a shake with maltodextrin and casein protein. The maltodextrin will be absorbed very quickly by your body and the protein will prevent muscle breakdown.

I understand that you may have a very hectic and “tight” schedule. However, I strongly recommend against working out 10 minutes upon waking up. It’s extremely difficult for the female body to digest any type of food or supplement within such a short time frame. You’re likely to burn through a lot of muscle if you do this. Not good if you want to get rid of arm fat and get sexy arms!

Protein is essential for any effective arm toning program. It plays so many important roles in the female body that close attention has to be given to its management. After all, a lack of protein quality and quantity will set back your sexy arm mission by leaps and bounds.

Unfortunately, not all sources of protein are beneficial.

In fact, there are some types of protein that you should avoid at ALL costs. So here are 5 types of protein you should NOT eat when toning flabby arms:

1. Non-wild salmon. Any type of salmon that is farm raised is likely to be loaded with toxins such as PCB’s. There is some solid research backing this up. So if your budget permits, stick to wild salmon with the highest fat content.

2. Protein that has been deep fried. Not only is the fat on the protein bad for you, but so are the fumes. In fact, inhaling fumes while frying meat increases rates of lung cancer.

3. Blackened protein. Cooking something till the point that it’s blackened may taste good, but it’s very very bad for you. Consistent research has shown that blackening meats increases cancer rates. So lightly cook or steam your food, but don’t overdo it.

4. Fatty meat. Meat isn’t necessarily bad for you, it’s the fat within the meat that creates problems. In fact, grass fed meat is quite healthy because it has more omega-3 fat and less saturated fat. The only drawback is that grass fed meat can be quite expensive

5. Thin-sliced deli cuts. The convenience of deli cut meats is cancelled out by nitrates. What do nitrates do? Increase rates of colon cancer. Not good. So stick with natural sources of protein and avoid highly processed protein like deli cuts.

Reaching your arm toning potential with protein doesn’t have to compromise your health. Getting sexy and lean arms should be a healthy process in both the short and long term. So stay away from the above sources of protein as often as possible and you’ll be one step closer to sexy arm stardom!

The best way to attain fat loss is through a combination of resistance training and intense, short-duration exercise. Resistance training builds muscle and, a little muscle goes a long way toward increasing metabolic rate, caloric expenditure, and fat burning. Likewise, brief intervals of intense exercise induce a hormonal response that increases resting metabolic rate and increases overall fat burning for up to two days.

Muscle toning equals fat burning. Every ounce of toned muscle you possess increases around the clock fat burning. Protein is the most important macronutrient in your muscle-toning arsenal.

Growth hormone is a major player in numerous metabolic processes. By stimulating the release of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-l) from the liver, growth hormone is indirectly responsible for long bone growth in children. In adults, the combined effects of growth hormone and IGF-l do everything from reducing body fat, to promoting muscle tissue development, to preventing cosmetic symptoms of aging such as thinning skin.

Thanks to their sinister mineral ratios, one of the biggest contributing factors to the development of both osteoporosis and heart disease may be the very same calcium rich dairy products and whole grains that the so called experts have been encouraging us to eat for the prevention of these conditions. It is highly unlikely that the grain and dairy industries are about to advertise this fact. Nevertheless, a growing number of studies comparing calcium and magnesium intake for the prevention of osteoporosis, diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease have yielded results that seem to indicate that magnesium supplementation may be even more important than calcium supplementation.
