Muscle Memory

I talk a lot about muscle memory and developing it early. I always recommend building it now so it will last through the tough times. Tough times being; starting a career, family, etc. and not having the time to exercise.

If you are young, the time will come that you will not get your exercise the way you want to. So read this article about resistance training or weight training and let's get moving.

If you are in the middle of not being able to exercise due to "life", then let's get started on at least a couple of times a week and play off of the muscle memory.

If you are past the "life is too busy" stage and are ready to get your "best shape body" back, give me a call and lets get started.

Quick Label Guide

Quick way to read a label. For every 50 calories per serving, you can only have 1 gm of fat. So if a serving has 3 gm of fat, there must be at least 150 total calories or more. 2 gm of fat, must have 100 total calories or more. Do not go over more than 3 gm of fat per serving and you will see results fast. This formula is to keep your calories from fat at less than 20%. Share with a friend. Also, fan my page at Better Bodies on Campbell Facebook.

Oatmeal Cookie Protein Shake

Here is a quick meal idea. You can use this any time of day. It is a great quick start for "on the go" mornings.


1-2 scoops Protein(depending on how many grams of protein you need)

1 Tbsp Peanut butter(for taste and essential fats. Almond butter is
a better replacement)

1/2 cup Quick oats (low fat carbohydrate source)

6-8oz. Almond milk (or water but I don't recommend milk)

1/2 tsp Cinnamon (For flavor and health benefits).
See article for (Health Benefits of cinnamon)

Directions: Put almond milk and ice in blender and mix. Then add protein, next add oats, then peanut butter, and last add the cinnamon.

Tip: While getting ready in the morning, put some eggs to hard boil. Easy to multi-task. Boil enough for two meals. Now take the eggs and two pieces of fruit with you and you are on your way with 3 meals that are low in fat, high in protein, and a great source of carbs. Watch the weight go down and the tone come out.

Take it one step further and have a shake again for meal #4 and then a sensible dinner. Now you have 5 meals with very little effort and very little fat. Eating well with a regular exercise routine is recommended for optimal results.

Have a meal idea of your own? Please share.
