I got an email the other day from a friend of mine from Toastmasters. Attached was a small “e-book” touting secrets to getting in shape and never having to diet again. “Wow,” I thought. This guy’s gonna put all the health experts, fitness trainers and nutritionists out of business! Why even bother having a website if this guy is giving away all the secrets absolutely FREE!”
Yeah, so I”m a little sarcastic. You know what it listed? Every single thing you’ve ever heard or read about staying healthy/ Yup…don’t eat sugar, count calories, exercise, do interval training, go to the gym with a buddy…etc, etc.
Ummm, if I’ve seen these suggestions listed in every magazine from Esquire to Marie Claire and talked about on the Today Show and Larry King, how secretive can they be? Really, are we supposed to be that stupid? This country may be lazy, addicted to caffeine, white flour and sugar, but we’re not stupid.
Of course, the e-book constantly referred to his ‘original methods of training.’ Here’s a secret for you….if I take a recipe, change ONE item, it becomes MY original recipe. (Not that I’d ever DO that!) So, all this guy would have to do is change ONE thing about an exercise, published diet or touted cardio routine and it’s considered original.
The fact is, burning calories has to do with intensity, the amount of muscle one has, age, hormones and stuff like that. People just need to move, eat healthier, take human portions, don’t drink to excess or smoke at all. Ever heard that? It’s no secret. And it’s not brain surgery.
Talk to you later,
Rona
