BEATING Diabetes with Lifestyle Change: Jody's Success Story

Jody came to Enlightened and started working with me in order to improve her overall health, and get off insulin so she will be able to watch her kids grow up and FEEL better everyday.

Through hard work and exploration, she got off her insulin!

We found the book called “The Diabetes Code” by Dr. Jason Fung and it was massively helpful in this process and in educating us on the pitfalls of the current standard of care for type 2 diabetics.

Jody and I both hope that this episode will provide you with value, and maybe give you the power needed to take control of your health and make the changes you need!

Enlightened Athlete Guided Meditation Track

If you need a little relaxation or break from the day, listen to this. This track will be most effective with headphones and during a short period where you will not be interrupted. I prefer to do this lying down but only if I won't fall asleep.

This guided track utilizes binaural beats which will help get you into a very relaxed state even if you’re new to meditation. We plan to do more of these, with longer variations & different techniques.

6 Reasons You Need to Lift Weights [Infographic]

People are unaware just how important it is to move external objects with and around their bodies.

Enter resistance training!

I’ve had so much success with my clients just by adding in a little resistance training to their routine a few times a week. This doesn’t need to any type of marathon lifting workout. In fact, when you’re just starting out (or just starting back up!) you shouldn’t do this.

You need to implement safe exercises that will allow you to build strength and body control that lead to long term success. Starting this way will allow you to avoid injury, begin seeing results, and help you stay on the path long term. Your goal should not be to have your legs so wobbly by the time you leave that you look like a drunk newborn giraffe.

Implementing 2-3 sets of 8-12 reps of exercises like deadlifts, bent over or chest supported rows, front rack squats, seated or standing presses, lunges, or flies (and the list goes on) using dumbbells or kettlebells will be a great place to start in the beginning.

Be on the lookout for our new resistance training program for beginners, coming soon. Sign up for the newsletter to be notified when we release this program!

If after reading the infographic below you decide you’d like to begin your journey into lifting weights but aren’t sure where to start and are located around the Hastings, Ne area, schedule a free trial workout with us so you can have a professional show you the ropes. (If you’d like video analysis of technique just note that in the message box)

Sometimes the best way to get started is to just get started instead of waiting around for the perfect moment for all the stars to align.
