Welcome to “Prime
Physique Magazine Online!”
Hello Fitness, Boot Camp, and Weight Loss Enthusiasts!
The trip to Alaska was pretty darn amazing...Did not crash another plane...and did not fall down! How about the fitness aspect of the trip? 2 years ago when I went on the same trip, I weighed about 260 and was not in great shape...this year I was about 25-30 pounds lighter, better shape and had a much better trip! More hiking, better endurance, more to experience...so go workout! Down side? Well, it was a gourmet vacation with lots of beer! Now I get to do 2-a-day's! I think I put on 5-10 pounds;-( Oh well, it was fun...and I was training hard before leaving, so I swung right back to exercise...with a vengeance!
Trip highlights: Bald Eagles, Moose, Beaver, Beaver Damns larger than you would believe, Porcupine, Mosquitoes the size of birds, 20 hours of sun, and all kinds of cool stuff! Fishing: Got my first King Salmon ever! Nailed Sockeye Salmon like you would not believe. New personal record: 28 inch Rainbow Trout...the Lake Trout last time was 27 and was the largest fish in the lodge! So many fish, it was crazy!
Would I do it again? HELL YEA!
OK, back to business: Yesterday a 7 week Super Camp Started in Campbell...did you make it? It was a great start to what will be another great exercise program! We are going to have a great time! Want to join us??? I might have a space or 2 available..SHHHH.....

Don't Let Weight Gain Ruin Your Vacation
A summer trip is easily one of the most anticipated events of the year-the chance to get away from work and to relax with your loved ones is priceless.
With all of the excitement, it's not surprising that most people unknowingly end up gaining a pound each day of their vacation. And if you're going on a cruise then your weight gain may be closer to two pounds each day.
But wait, your summer vacation doesn't have to end in weight gain. Keep the following tips in mind as you embark on your summer adventure and you may come home fitter than when you left.
Tip One: Have a Plan
Vacations are the perfect place to gain weight since it's the last thing on your mind. Your best line of defense is to keep your fitness goals at the forefront of your mind. Before you leave for your trip sit down and set a goal.
A realistic goal is to maintain your current weight or to lose a pound or two. Get the whole family on board and keep each other accountable throughout the trip.
Tip Two: Make Exercise a Must
So often exercise is looked at as a chore, but vacations are the perfect time to really enjoy a good workout. You won't be rushing home from work trying to squeeze in a few minutes at the gym, rather the vacation workout can be a relaxing and enjoyable experience.
Virtually every hotel these days has some type of workout room equipped with cardio machines, dumbbells and a universal machine. If you are taking a cruise then you are in for a real treat – most workout facilities on cruise ships have huge windows that look out onto the ocean.
Vacations are also a great time to take your workout outdoors; take a run on the beach or do sprints, pushups and crunches on a grassy field. If you want more ideas of workouts you can do using just your body weight then give me a call or send me an email.
Tip Three: Maintain your Metabolism
When traveling it is easy to go for hours without a meal-between flights and long drives food sometimes isn't readily available. The problem here it two fold. First your metabolism slows from the long absence of food. Secondly you are more likely to indulge in a high calorie meal when you get around to eating next.
Avoid this yo-yo of starvation and overindulgence by carrying healthy snacks with you and eating something every three hours. A handful of almonds, a piece of fruit or a small protein bar are fantastic options to keep on hand.
Tip Four: Eat Smart
While we all know that eating in is usually healthier than eating out, on the road you simply don't have a choice – all of your vacations meals will be eaten out. So take the time to order with your health conscious mind, and not simply your taste buds. Watch out for extra large portions-don't be afraid to take a dogie bag back to your room (assuming of course that you have a refrigerator).
Another thing to keep in mind is to keep fried food consumption to a minimum. Fried foods contain more fat and calories than other options, they are also likely to give you heartburn and indigestion-two things you don't need spoiling your vacation. Stick with dishes that contain veggies, lean meats and whole grains.
Enjoy your vacation! And when you get back into town call or email me for a fitness and fat loss consultation and I'll show you a step-by-step plan for getting you the body that you deserve – in less time than you think.
Dieting Alone Doesn't Make the Cut
Have you tried losing weight by dieting alone? Frustrating isn't it? Exercise is a vital part of the weight loss formula and is proven to increase your metabolism all day long. Dieting alone could never do that.
Fruit Medley
 Craving something sweet? This recipe is the perfect summer dessert. If you don’t have nectarine or pear on hand, be creative and use other fresh fruits.

Here's what you need...
- 1 white nectarine, chopped
- 1 pear, chopped
- 1 Tablespoon chopped pecans
- 1 Tablespoon chopped dates
- Dash of cinnamon
- Mix the nectarine, pear, pecans, and dates in a medium sized bowl. Sprinkle with cinnamon and mix until well coated.

Thinking about exercising with us? Here is what our clients are saying:
THANK YOU, Brett et al! I signed up for your Boot Camp because I really needed to have my rear kicked into shape. After 4 weeks of your camp (5 days/week) I not only dropped 10 pounds, inches and body fat but I met my even bigger objective...the physical agility portion of the entrance exam to the SC County Sheriff’s department
