Some Thoughts From the Late George Carlin...

This Post has nothing to do with fitness, George Carlin is one of my favorite comedians. He may have been abrasive, but he was a genius.

I was in my mother's belly as she sat in the waiting room of the abortionist's office. Dr. Sunshine was his code name. I was fifty feet from the drainpipe, and she saw a painting on the wall that reminded her of her mother, who had recently died. She took that as a sign to have the baby. That's what I call luck.

My father drank and was a bully. For the first five years of my brother's life, my father beat him with a leather-heeled slipper. Had I been subjected to that kind of treatment, all bets are off. His absence saved my life.

My mother had great executive-secretarial jobs in the advertising business and raised two boys during the Second World War. She used to say, "I make a man's salary." That's heroism.

I'm sure Hitler was great with his family.

I don't like authority and regulation, and I do my best to disrespect it, but I do that for myself. It's self-expression only.

Sex without love has its place, and it's pretty cool, but when you have it hand in hand with deep commitment and respect and caring, it's nine thousand times better.

If it's morally wrong to kill anyone, then it's morally wrong to kill anyone. Period.

It's amazing to me that literacy isn't considered a right.

I was arrested for possession and cultivation of marijuana in the early '70s, and it was thrown out. The judge asked me how I felt about it, and I said, "I understand the law, and I want you to know I'll pay the fine, but I cannot guarantee I will not break this law again." He really chewed me out for that.

Censorship that comes from the outside assumes about people an inability to make reasoned choices.

The first thing they teach kids is that there's a God -- an invisible man in the sky who is watching what they do and who is displeased with some of it. There's no mystery why they start that with kids, because if you can get someone to believe that, you can add on anything you want.

I would die for the safety of the people I love.

I wish that we could measure how much the potential of the mind to expand has been stunted by television.

Because of my abuse of drugs, I neglected my business affairs and had large arrears with the IRS, and that took me eighteen to twenty years to dig out of. I did it honorably, and I don't begrudge them. I don't hate paying taxes, and I'm not angry at anyone, because I was complicit in it. But I'll tell you what it did for me: It made me a way better comedian. Because I had to stay out on the road and I couldn't pursue that movie career, which would have gone nowhere, and I became a really good comic and a really good writer.

I stopped voting when I stopped taking drugs. I believe both of those acts are closely related to delusional behavior.

There's no morality in business. It doesn't have a conscience. It has only the cash register. They'll sell you crappy things that you don't need, that don't work, that they won't stand behind. It's a glorified legal form of criminal behavior.

If everybody knew the truth about everybody else's thoughts, there would be way more murders.

There's nothing wrong with high taxes on high income.

Lenny Bruce opened all the doors, and people like Richard Pryor and I were able to walk through them.

Given the right reasons and the right two people, marriage is a wonderful way of experiencing your life.

I think that the assassinations of the Kennedys and Martin Luther King showed that all of the wishing and hoping and holding hands and humming and signing petitions and licking envelopes is a bit futile.

I don't think people should get credit for being honest and brave. I think there's a lot of genetic sh** going on there.

Someday they'll find a gene for putting on your overcoat.
There's a pulse in New York, even on the quietest street, on the quietest day. It's full of potential.

If there's ever a golden age of mankind, it will not include men over two hundred pounds beating children who are less than one hundred pounds, and it will not include the deliberate killing of people in a formal setting.

I did something in a previous life that must have been spectacularly good, because I'm getting paid in this life just magnificently, more than one would dare imagine or hope for.

HOT! HOT! HOT!

MAKE SURE TO DRINK MORE WATER! With temp's rising I want to make
sure everyone is drinking enough water. Most professionals will say 8-8oz.
glasses of water a day will do it, but in my opinion that is
not enough for most people. For HOT Days like we have had, try at least
12-15 8oz. glasses a day.

Stay Cool,

Steve Krebs

INTERVAL TRAINING PART II

Here are some FACTS about Interval Training:

-Interval training burns 3X as much fat as running at a steady pace does

-Interval training elevates your good cholesterol that turns your arteries into whooshing streams (that's a good thing)

-Interval training increses blood supply to the cells, the cells use oxygen more efficiently and the enzymes that help create energy increase. Thatimproves your fitness


It's so freshing to finally see the mainstream media catch on to the benefits of interval training. I truly believe you'll see more of more of this as people begin to experience how incredible interval training makes you feel and look.

BENEFITS OF INTERVAL TRAINING OVER STEADY STATE CARDIO

1) Saves time. Most intervals last about 20 minutes in comparison to 1 to 2 hours on the treadmill with traditional steady state cardio - this occurs as many of us pay attention to the immediate feedback of calories burned during the cardio session. However, true fat loss results are achieved based on calories burned in a 24 hour period - not during one workout session.

2) Stimulates a greater release of growth hormone. Studies have shown that intense and challenge interval training produces growth hormone which helps to increase lean muscle mass. Muscle is your metabolism. The more muscle you have the more calories you burn 24-7.

3) Better for your joints. Intervals should be done on alternate days not back to back about 3-4 days out of the week. There is less exposure and stress on the joints because it takes less time to complete.

4) Metabolic disturbance. Interval training increases your metabolism and post-exercise oxygen consumption which has been shown to burn fat for 24 hours after the interval bout.

5) Eliminates Boredom. Interval training can be done with body weight exercises, machines, medicine balls, bands,free weights, and of course anything outdoors. - such as hills!

DIET MISTAKE # 2

Now that we have discussed Fad Diets, I want to address the second MISTAKE most people make in dieting! You should aim to follow your meal plan 90% of the time! This is going to sound crazy coming from a results driven fitness professional, but here it goes. It is OK to cheat every once in awhile! The main reason why most diets fail is because we set unobtainable expectations for ourselves. Now I am not saying to take this to the extreme and kill a whole pint of Ben & Jerry's. But it is ok to have a treat every once in awhile as a reward for following your new meal plan. A Healthy Diet and regimented Exercise Plan are all you need to LOSE BODY FAT FOREVER!!!! It's not rocket science. Remember 90% of the time = SUCCESS! You could apply this principle to many areas of your life!

Mistake #1 Most People Make In Their Diets!

Summer is right around the corner, that means bathing suits are coming out of that bottom drawer! The fastest way to a Beach Body is exercise and a great meal plan!
Since everyone already knows about the Next Level Beach Body Bootcamp, today I am going to point out mistake #1 that most people make in their "diets".

Mistake #1- FAD DIETS:Everyone knows what these crazy plans are,
usually put together by uncertified goofballs! You know em when you see em, "Drink pickle juice, and eat freakin raisins for 2 weeks and we guarantee fatloss!" Give me a break! Are you serious?

Ofcourse you will lose weight, but as soon as you eat normal again, the water weight that you lost after starving yourself is going to come back with a vengence!

Any diet where you are not getting all 3 of the basic nutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and healthy fats) is not healthy!

I'm sure many of us who have gone on a carb free diet has felt the lack of energy, and decreased brain function that comes with it. These "DIETS" are the definition of YO-YO! The human body cannot function properly when the nutrients it desires are missing.

We need to realize as a society that there is NO SUCH THING AS A QUICK FIX! We are all used to instant gratification! Touch a button and you have exactly what you want. Well fortunately there are still some things that require hard work, and dedication! How would the world be if we didn't have to work for anything? Instant Gratification? Well just take a look at America's young people, a 35% obesity rate!

That's what we get for having everything come easy. Sorry I'm ranting, but the truth is our country is in serious trouble. Obesity is an epidemic! Please forward this email to everyone you know. They will thank you for "waking them up". Be on the lookout for Mistake #2!In the mean time, If you want a solution to your weight problems call Next Level personal training @ 315-790-5851. 1 on 1 Fat Loss Training Next Level Beach Body Bootcamp
