Dear Clients and Friends,

 

Over the past 3 weeks, we have had a lot of our clients experience a lot of great success with their programs.

 

2 weeks ago a few of my clients and myself participated in the Wounded Warriors Run in Los Lunas. Maria (my mom) won 2nd place in the womens overall, and Austin won 1st place in his age group. Gil did really well with 5th place in his age group, and i got 4th place in my age group.

 

So whatever your fitness goals are, always look for small progressions and be forgiving to yourself if you slip up from time to time. Just remember to learn from your mistakes and don't be afraid to ask for help.

 

 Continued down below....

 

Eat This, Not That 

 

In celebration of National Great Outdoors Month, we thought we would focus on some treats that you can grill up in your backyard, while enjoying the beautiful weather.

Eat This:
Baja-Battered Fish Tacos
Fish tacos have recently become the "it" food. Fish is a light and healthy way to go when cooking lunch or dinner. We have found a simple recipe for you to create. If you do not like salmon or have other fish available it can be substituted with halibut, sea bass or tilapia.

Per serving: 120 calories; 6 g fat ( 0 g sat , 3 g mono );

33 mg cholesterol; 4 g carbohydrates; 11 g protein; 0 g fiber; 112 mg sodium; 180 mg potassium.

 

Not That:

Pacific Shrimp Tacos

Taco Bell

 

Per Serving: 180 calories; 7g fat (1.5 sat); 21mg; 21g carbohydrates; 8g protein; 2g fiber; 660mg sodium.

Fit Quiz
Testing Your Health Knowledge 

 

It is that time again. We want to put your health knowledge to the test. This weeks quiz is all about basic health. Things that you should know in case you do not. Don't be scared the worst that can happen is that you will gain more useful information! So come on and put your brain to the test.
Exercise of the Week: 
Weighted Lunge with Side Twist

The lunge with twist exercise builds lower body strength in the quads, glutes, and core, while improving balance and proprioception.

Using this type of stability exercise isolates your quads and hamstrings with the lunge motion. when the twist is added it causes your glutes to contract more fully while engaging your core. It is also a great way to challenge your balance and engage muscles that are used while performing this exercise.

Mythbuster
As Long As You Eat Healthy Food, You Can Eat as Much as You Want!
 

Don't you wish. Many people are convinced that if you work out enough, or at all that this allows you to eat whatever you would like. This is not true. It is important to remember that a calorie is a calorie, and each pound equals 3,500 calories.

Success Story 
Martin J. Doviak

Martian first heard about Upward Motion Personal Training Studio from a former client of ours. His reason for getting in touch with us is that he was experiencing pain and weakness. However, he had also heard from a friend that he had, had successful results after being treated by Luis. When entering the studio Martin had a specific issue that he wished to be addressed.
