Okay, now remember, I said this post is for people
Over
40
ONLY.
If you're younger than 40, and you get offended by anything I say, tough tutus, you weren't invited to this party anyway! ;-)
Now then...
I want to tell you what happened to me the other day...
I bought an exercise dvd because I'm tired of being tired. I want to get into shape, I want to fit into my clothes, and I want energy - LOTS of it!
So I put on my old sweats, put on the dvd, and here was this barely 20 something girl in the shape of a toothpick, grinning menacingly (I swear!) at the camera like she was going to take a bite out it. Or me.
"Don't worry," she says. "We're going to start out sloooowwww."
Grin grin grin.
Barely five minutes into her jumping/gyrating/vibrating routine,I collapsed on the couch, completely confused, frustrated and ANNOYED.
Maybe, just maybe I could have kept up with her for awhile if something she did made SENSE.
But just when I was able to copy one of her moves, she was on to the next one like a frenzied rabid rabbit.
"Okay," she grins, "Put your right arm up and step with your left foot and put your left arm out and hop with your right leg while bending at the waist and touch your forehead to the floor and snap back up and whirl your arms while moving your legs out and in and then turn left and slide down and roll and back up and bend and touch your head to your butt and..."
Holy @#$%&^*!
Who exercises like this???
Not me.
I'm over 40.
I want to get in shape.
I want to feel good, look good, and have lots of energy.
I don't need a barely 20's chicklet telling me, someone twice her age, how to get in shape.
Because frankly, she doesn't have a clue.
What she teaches might be fine for people her age.
But I want to learn from someone MY age or older who is in the best shape of their lives.
Now THAT'S someone who can teach me how to be fit and feel great...
...and I know you probably feel the same way.
So I went online and started searching...
...and I think I've hit the mother lode.

P.S. Want an easy shortcut to massive results fast?
Me too.
You've heard of role modeling, right?
It's where you find the people who have the skills, knowledge or results you want.
When you copy their methods, you duplicate their results as fast as humanly possible.
Modeling gives you an unfair advantage that speeds up your rate of progress and slices years off your learning curve.
So why not use modeling to uncover and duplicate the health and fitness strategies of men and women who've conquered aging and disease?

The Wondrous Benefits of Soy Protein
Soy protein is emerging as one of the great alternative protein sources for human consumption. Health experts are all excited about how soy protein can change the face of nutrition. What’s all the rage?
Here are some great reasons to get with soy protein.
Soy Protein is Plant Protein.
Soy beans contain complete protein and are one of the most digestible of all protein sources. Soy beans also contain little or no fat and have virtually no cholesterol.
People who are lactose intolerant will be pleased to know that soy beans contain zero lactose.
Being a plant protein, soy is free from the steroids and antibiotics that animal protein contain. It is also free from the parasites that contaminate some of these products. In addition, they also contain none of the diseases such as Mad Cow Disease, and Foot and Mouth Disease.
Vegetarians love this bean as it provides a comparable – if not better – source of protein, compared to the animal equivalent. It provides a protein that is better and easier to digest and is comparable to most protein supplements.
Soy Beans are very versatile.
Soy beans are very versatile. Various styles of cooking, especially Asian ones recognise the value of the humble soy bean. A variety of naturally yummy delicacies are all soy based: tofu, soy pudding, Soya milk, and meat substitutes – not to mention condiments such as soy sauce, and hoi sin sauce.
To counter the problem of world hunger, it has been suggested that the growing of soy beans should be promoted. Not only are soy beans easy to grow and harvest, but they will grow pretty much anywhere and produce good size crops in the minimum time. There have even been reports of farmers replacing their entire crop line with soy bean plants.These hardy little plants produce much per harvest, and can grow in even the most trying terrain.
The great soy bean is low in fat and can be used to substitute most protein sources. When cooking, you may use soy substitutes instead of flour for a low fat alternative. This makes it a great protein source for those that are looking to lose weight without compromising their protein requirements.
Bodybuilders can benefit from the soy bean as it can make their jobs a lot easier. Without the fat and with all the protein goodness – easily digestible at that – the soy bean is a great blessing to bodybuilders.
Although bodybuilders are currently debating over how soy can best be incorporated into their diets, this doesn’t take away anything from what soy can contribute to the overall health of a person.
It is advisable to stick to the natural protein rather than the processed protein if possible, as processed foods typically have some risk attached to them. The best use of this food is to understand how it perfectly fits into anyone’s low-fat, high-protein diet.
Soy products can be incorporated into shakes and drinks. And being lactose-free, lactose intolerant people will still be able to get their milkshake fix without having to suffer.
Soy products are also a great source of other nutrients such as saponins, isoflavones, and phytosterol.
Saponins help support a healthy immune system. It also combines with cholesterol to avoid increased absorption of cholesterol in the body. Phytosterols also help reduce the absorption of cholesterol in the body in the same way saponins do.
Isoflavones are powerful antioxidants and prevent the effects of free radicals in the body. They prevent many of the signs of aging and have been known to help prevent cancer. This alone makes soy a miracle protein source in its own right. Isoflavones, along with vitamins A,C, and E are among the front liners in the fight against such disease – they also counter the effects of pollution, and stress.
How Much is Too Much?
Unlike other protein sources, it is pretty safe to consume a large amount of soy products. While allergies to soy products do exist, cases are few and far between. When changing to a soy diet, however, it would be best to consult your physician or your nutritionist. Ask specifically if the soy interferes with any prescription drugs you are taking.
Soy can be major blessing for people who are looking for a great source of protein that does not result in the side effects of most of the other sources.
