VIDEO OF THE MONTH
GET READY TO GET FIT... FOR GOLF!
In the past, golf has been viewed as a relaxing way the "inactive population" spend a day. It's the perfect sport with little athletic ability needed and no grueling off and pre-season training. That is most likely why golf has recently become on of America's favorite pastimes…if you can spend the time! There are now over 28 million people, almost 20% of our population playing golf yearly. Golfers are everywhere and wearing everything!Times are definitely changing! If we take a look back at the body types of many professional golfers in history. Fitness was NOT a focus…and, at the time, really didn't seem to be needed.
Now as we look at what is happening to the bodies of the pros, we see more athletic builds and weight loss throughout the entire tour. From baby boomers to the younger generations alike, no matter what age, aesthetics may not entirely be the focus, but function and fitness definitely are!If you want to play better golf today, you practice by swinging the club a bunch of times and whacking a lot of balls. If you want to continue to play better golf tomorrow and years down the road, then it's time to get on the cutting edge of the fitness movement. Get out of your comfort zone and put the extra effort in to fine tune your body.

Stall Bars are used by gymnasts, fitness enthusiasts, and many who need to use stall bars for mobility, rehabilitation and pre-rehabilitation. They are great to help correct posture and improve body alignment.
These two exercises are perfect for any golfer who would like to emphasize better footwork during the swing as well as increasing the lateral spine angle through impact.

Many Americans suffer from chronic conditions linked to their diet. Here is a nutritional powerhouse that could make you healthier with every bite:
HEMP SEEDS: complete meal of rich fatty acids, protein and fiber!
3 tablespoons contain approximately 180 calories, 10g protein, 15g fat, and 3 fiber.
They have a mild nutty flavor and are often referred to as hemp hearts. They are soft on the outside which makes them easy to chew and digest.
Hemp comes from the Cannabis Sativa plant and does not have the mind-altering effects of marijuana. Their nutritional profile pack a healthy punch due to the high volume of Vitamin E, folate, B6, iron, zinc, magnesium and manganese.
What can it do for your health with all those good things in it?
1) Protects the brain from inflammation which can lead to Alzheimers, Parkinson's and Multiple Sclerosis.
2) increases heart health by way of the essential fatty acids.
3) Improve skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis.
4) Relieve the pain of Rheumatoid Arthritis by decreasing inflammation.
5) Contains all 9 of the essential amino acids to make a complete protein meal which benefits body tissues.
How can you eat it? I mix it in shakes and sprinkle it on all kinds of dishes including eggs, salad and popcorn! I even mix them in my protein balls!
