Flexible Living

I have an event this weekend that will take up this evening and most of the day tomorrow. Food preparation will accomplished this afternoon. I plan on making 8 meals, which is probably too much but this the will insure that I don't miss any feeding opportunities. Intuitively you would think that eating more often would cause a person to gain weight but the opposite is actually seen. The meals I am preparing are more like large snacks than big meals. An example of meal might consist of a Chicken wrap( Flatout wraps with chicken breasts, mixed greens, hummus and carrots is my current favorite) and another might include a handful of unsalted nuts. Nutritionists like John Berardi talk about eating every 2-3 hours to boost the metabolism and avoid drastic drops in blood sugar.

Goal number 5 is to be flexible enough to do a full split

I am currently working with Lauri Ruddach, who is a fitness phenomenon and along with her kettlebell prowess she is an accomplished yoga instructor. I will incorporate Intu-flow everyday to help keep my connective tissue healthy and keep my body limber. Several times a week, I will incorporate traditional yoga routines like the sun salutations to develop my flexibility. As I progress Lauri has planned for me to start Prasara yoga.
The best benefit of increase flexibilty is cool ways you can choke people!
