New Year, NEW YOU 44 | BOROMAG.COM | JANUARY 2015 Story By Hayley Bridgewater “Life is filled with variety. Eat colorful, flavorful, real food. Move. Our bodies beg to be moved. Dance, crawl, lift weights, jump, box, martial arts, walk, run... try it all. Read. Learn a little of everything and always be curious. Do something creative daily: write, draw, paint, sing, dance, play music, sew or build a model... just do it. Kiss and hug the people you love, like you may never see them again and you will never know regret. Remember that we are connected to everyone, every creature, rock, river, stream, mountain, and tree. Everything has a spirit. Have gratitude and respect all of life and you will live a blessed life.” Luz Milagros Arpino Luz Milagros Healing Arts www.luzmilagroshealingarts.com “To achieve success in the New Year, create realistic, specific, measurable short and long term goals while tracking your workouts. This will allow you to quickly identify if your plan is working or not and will make it possible to make necessary changes to continue reaching your goals throughout 2015.” Joseph Gambino Fitness First Training Systems www.matrixfitnessclub.com “A positive body image is a powerful catalyst to help you accomplish your goals. Negativity is stressful on the body. A happy body will get more done than a stressed one. Tune out the negative noise around you that tells you to lose unwanted inches or strengthen a bad back. No part of you is unwanted, bad, or broken. Not confident about how a certain body part looks, functions, or performs? Talk the talk. Focus on what your body can do, not on what it cannot or what you think it looks like to others. Start using words such as strong, powerful, and able when it comes to your body. Do this when heading for a workout or physical therapy appointment, and you’ll be surprised how fast you’ll be walking the walk! To stay motivated, surround yourself with people who are doing the things that you want to achieve. Work out with a friend, join a team, sign up for small group classes, or join a gym that focuses on community building. If you are worried about returning to activity too fast after an injury, add fitness and health professionals to your support team. The bigger your crew the better!” Polina Savelieva Active Outlook Massage www.activeoutlookmassage.com “Awareness is your first step to change! Are you a thinker or a doer? The choice is yours!” F rancesca Santangelo Fitness by Francesca “If you don’t know where to start from an exercise program standpoint, and are looking to lose weight, keep it simple. Walking and cleaning up your diet are two effective ways to achieve your goals. All it takes is a little effort and dedication! Also, one of the biggest obstacles that I see clients struggle with is getting adequate amounts of sleep. We have all heard it over and over again, 8 hours of sleep nightly. Of course, this isn’t always possible, but 2 hours of sleep isn’t acceptable either! Studies show that reduced sleep can lead to decreased insulin sensitivity, overeating, and less movement due to lack of energy.” Frank Dufy Frank Duffy Fitness www.facebook.com/frankduffyfitness “Be Balanced, Be Functional, Be Unlimited. Push your body past the limits by challenging your body with a new style of workout.” Daniel Berrios Unlimited Body www.unlimitedbodyny.com BODY & SOUL Smal Steps That Create Big Change
