The Glycemic index and how it can Hurt or Help your weight loss goals.

It's been a while so lets get back to work. Today's subject is the Glycemic Index. Huh, what's that, well the Glycemic index shows how foods affect your blood sugar, in a positive and negative way. The GI also shows how your body stores foods as fats, and how certain foods can put you at risk for diabetes, while others can give you energy to make it through your day or the most grueling workout. I'm not the best to explain it so I put a little video up to help you understand how to make smart decisions on what you put into your body for optimal health and weight loss.



Below is a chart of some common foods and their rankings. Just a little something to get you started in the right direction.

The Clock/360 Degree Lunge with Dumbbells or a Kettlebell

Another great set of exercises you can do ANYWHERE!!!

This is great for the beginner athlete to the advanced and easily scalable by adding or taking or away weight, along with by changing how many reps you do in a set or by doing it for a given time like 10 minutes straight with a low weights to get more cardio, or 5 minutes with heavy weights to build more strength and power.

ENJOY!
