Welcome to “Prime
Physique Magazine Online!”
Hello Fitness, Boot Camp, and Weight Loss Enthusiasts!
Welcome to another great edition of Prime Physique Magazine Online. This year has just been great and it continues to provide us with amazing results from all of our clients in all of our fitness programs. I wanted to take a minute just to reflect and comment on the subject of success in fitness and weight loss. We are seeing so many clients achieving levels of success that are amazing and we want to compliment everyone. Some would like to see more results at faster rates, and we completely understand this natural desire. However we must all remember that the human body works at its own pace and is different for everyone...and it can be a major pain in the ass sometimes! Work with your body and stay persistent and consistent, weather you are achieving great results or slow results...there are huge results that are underneath what you see on the scale and the measurements, and these are the ones we most often forget. Your program and results are unique to your body, but everyone gets results from a good fitness program...and remember that we strive to make our programs more than good, we want them to be great! Congratulations on all of your successes, keep up the hard work and the results will continue AND improve!
In ONE WEEK we launch the next San Jose/Campbell Adventure Boot Camp at 5:30 and 9:30 AM! So REGISTER NOW if you have not yet done so...don't miss your chance to reap the benefits of this great fitness experience. AND in TWO WEEKS we launch the next Silver Creek Location camp session...Lindsay is doing a GREAT job, so join the fun;-)
Now go workout and have fun with Prime Physique and San Jose Adventure Boot Camp!
Your Personal Trainer,
Brett A. Riesenhuber, B.S., C.P.P.T., G.F.P., C.A.B.C.T.

Got Muscle Confusion?
A question that I am often asked by frustrated fitness enthusiasts is "Why have my results stopped? I am doing the same routine as before - what happened?"
This is a common place to end up, usually a few months after starting a new exercise routine. At first your body responds to your routine in lost pounds and gained muscle tone, then one day your results screech to a stop.
What happened? And, more importantly, what can you do about it?
You may have heard the saying, "When you discover that you are riding a dead horse, the best idea is to get off." This is the perfect analogy for your stale workout routine.
The problem: Your body has adapted to your routine. Let's face it, when you can do your workout routine in your sleep it's time for something new.
The Solution: It's time to shake things up, and to apply the concept of muscle confusion.
Muscle confusion means that you keep your body guessing by changing your routine. The following are great ways to do just that:
Exercises: When you know that your routine has lost its effectiveness the first obvious thing to change are the actual exercises. It is important to include every major muscle group in your routine, so be sure to exchange each exercise for one that works the same muscle group.
Resistance: Do you find yourself always reaching for the same dumbbells or placing the pin in the same notch of the weight stack? Change your weight as well as the number of repetitions performed. If you normally do 12-15 repetitions then increase the weight and do 6-8. The key is to challenge your muscles in a new way.
Equipment: There are so many different pieces of exercise equipment out there—don't limit your routine to just one type. If you love working with dumbbells but your routine has fallen flat, put them aside and try something new. A little creativity can really jump start your progress.
Style: So often the training style that we are first taught sticks with us forever. For you this may be the style of doing one set, taking a rest period, and then doing another set. Or maybe you have caught on to the circuit training style that keeps your heart rate elevated throughout the routine. Whatever your chosen style, be sure to change it once your routine ceases to produce results.
Now, don't worry, this doesn't mean that you need a brand new workout every day of the week. In fact, your body will take some time to adjust to each new workout, so it should be done for the appropriate amount of time before results start to slack off.
What is that ‘sweet spot' of time that each new routine should be used before moving on to the next? Well, the answer to that question is as unique as each person reading this.
For some this will mean a new routine every 3 weeks, and for others it will mean a new routine every 8 weeks. Typically the fitter you are the quicker your body will adapt to each new routine.
Muscle confusion plays a big part of the programs that I provide for my clients and it's one of the little secrets I use to deliver fast results.

Plan Ahead
The next time that you plan a night out, take your time when choosing the restaurant. Steer clear of buffet style restaurants that encourage overeating or fast food restaurants that don't offer healthy choices. Pick a restaurant that caters to your healthy side.
Veggie Protein Rice
 Typically rice is filled solely with carbohydrates, but this recipe loads brown rice with protein. Egg whites, broccoli, celery, mushrooms, onions and spinach mix with brown rice to create a tasty, filling and healthy dish. Top with salsa for an extra flavor kick.
Servings: 2
Here's what you need...
- 1/2 cup chopped broccoli
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 diced celery stalks
- 1 cup raw spinach
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons lite soy sauce
- 1/4 cup long-grain brown rice
- 6 egg whites
- Steam the broccoli until just tender. Coat a medium sized pan with cooking spray, add the steamed broccoli, chopped onion, sliced mushrooms, diced celery, and raw spinach. Cook on medium heat until the spinach has cooked.
- Add the chicken broth, soy sauce and rice to the vegetable mixture and simmer until the liquid is gone.
- Add the egg whites and stir until the eggs are completely cooked.
Nutritional Analysis : One serving equals: 380 calories, 1.8g fat, 54g carbohydrate, 3g fiber, and 33.1g protein

I want to thank you again for kicking my butt into shape. It really bummed me out to not be getting up to workout with you at 5 frickin' 30 in the morning, but you can bet your booty I will be back in October! I loved every minute of the torture!
