Your No Brad Pitt

By: Nikolas Ohanian

 Without Motivation you're going to go no where real quick with your workouts, so I thought I would write a motivation blog series to help you get a better grip on your training. #1 of this series will talk about self analysis and making goals.  I know for some, a way of inspiration is their men fitness magazines, their flex, shape, sports illustrated ect.  
    Is there anything wrong with this...No.  Nevertheless, you need to spend the majority of time with your eyes on " You" . The truth is most people won't be able to get a body like Heidi Klum or Brad Pitt, and if you over-examine this, it could very well lead you in a slump.   Most people tend to focus on their whats wrong with them, while at the same time obsessing over the strengths of others. That's a surefire way to stay eternally frustrated.
    A much healthier approach is to acknowledge your own strengths, and use them as benchmarks , by which to bring up your weaknesses. Learn to give yourself credit for the improvement that you've made. You know it wasn't easy to lose those 5 lbs or to fit into that size 12 dress, but you did it, and you deserve to give yourself a pat on the back.  Remember keep your eyes on YOU, don't let the achievements of others dictate your obsessions. -

Recession Proof Training Programs

Boot-camps and Online Training

Mini Boot-camps

As people are searching for variety of alternatives during our current economic crisis.  I have come up with a few alternatives to continue training during this downtime.  JasonStoneFitness is now offering a unique and challenging opportunity for dropping inches and getting into the best shape of your life even when budgets are tight. I have put together “mini boot camps” filled with result oriented routines that are challenging and unique.  My approach effectively allows groups of friends, colleagues, family members, etc. opportunities to join in on one of the newest fitness crazes, the mini-boot-camp. There is a 3 participant minimum in place for each 30 minute time block, and maximum of 6 per group. Each group will meet 2 or 3 times per week for 4 consecutive weeks. Time slots and availability are limited!! They can be implemented indoor as well as outdoor (weather dependent) to prevent a large gap between offerings. The regimen can be on-going or a one-time fix for those looking for amazing results.

Finally Feeling Better

For those of you who don't already know I came down with a case of E coli on the afternoon of September 23rd.  I don't want to put blame on anyone but I picked up the bacteria from the popular organic grocery store.  The doctor believes I picked it up from the food handler not properly washing his hands or from one of the ingredients in the sandwich bar.  Whatever it was I was sick within an hour of consuming my usual turkey sandwich.  The symptoms were really strange the first 3 days as my body did everything it could to fight off the sometimes deadly strain of bacteria.  Finally during the night of September 26th, 3 days after eating the sandwich, my body couldn't fight any longer.  From the Friday night all the way to Wednesday, I was sickened with some of the worse symptoms I could ever think of.  I could not eat, drink, or keep food in my system for 5 straight days.  It was very depressing as my body weight plummeted from 198 to 188 in 5 days.  I could not take it anymore for the second time I went to the hospital to get some answers to what was going on.  This time the doctor diagnosed me with E coli and gave me a very strong antibiotic Ciprofloxacin and sent me on my way.  Within a day my lower gastrointestinal track started to stabilize and my weight and appetite followed with it.  For the first time in two weeks I actually had the energy to workout and actually felt normal.  It was a very scary lesson for me.  Unfortunately eating out now is scary.  Thank you everyone for all the support and patience these last few weeks, I take this as a lesson for myself and everyone.
