Note: The phrase "the ultimate crime" is meant as a statement against ones self. We allow our egos to pull us away from what life has to offer. Most of the time it is the fear of being judged by others. This fear usually pulls people into deep depressions, they loose the want or need to care about themselves.
In this video I explain about the Breathing Basics video
Breathing Basics
Fantastic for beginners or anyone who wants to strengthen their core
Breathing
Something so simple, can it
truly be hard to master...the answer...oh yeah. My 19 years in health and
fitness I have been telling people to breathe. Something so basic, you can't
live without breathing for very long. So why do I have to tell people to breathe.
It truly comes down to stress. Not only can deep breathing help relax you but
it has so many health benefits. One of the most important benefits that I
realized is the connection between the diaphragm and the core muscles. Not only
can this help you clean out your lungs, you would be amazed to know that we all
have a little phlegm and muck in our lungs. This also strengthens the core.
Yep, you can do sit ups and never have to actually sit up.
The truth is. After 5 years
of researching and studying and watching my clients. Very few people do abs
correctly. They cheat...Yep I said it...cheat! They use gravity or other muscle
groups to try to force their poor head off the floor. If you have ever done
with this weaker abs then your neck has told you the next what a bad idea that
was. Yet, they go back time and time again pulling their necks. This causes
headaches, it can affect your sight, jaw pain, shoulder pain, vertebral pain,
and over all just a feeling that someone beat you up.
But let’s stop for a minute.
You will learn in time that I will keep telling you to lose the ego. Why do we
have to lift our heads off the floor. Why do we have to look like the next guy,
or the cute instructor. Not everyone is built the same. That's why I have this
blog. You can do some of the most amazing abs just lying on the ground and
breathing. Again something in life can be that simple. Watch the Vlogs and take
this journey with me. It takes time, sometimes things that should be simple can
end up being the hardest thing you have to do. This is because you need to
focus. Every detail counts, flexing each muscle, taking each breath, listening
to your body and the clues its giving you.
Now if you are one of these
people and you feel you don't need this info. I encourage you to stop and
remember that we all need basics. I find it amazing to teach clients the basics
and how many of them come back telling me that they never realized how much
they were cheating. Yes, I have had some incredible athletes such as dancers
and runners tell me how much they have gained by rebuilding from the
basics.
Remember ego stops us from
achieving more, from listening to ourselves, and from understanding.
