Lose Your Fear of Lifting
Lose Your Fear of Lifting
"Muscles strengthen your body and mind: Brazilian researchers found that six months of resistance training enhanced lifters' cognitive function. In fact, the sweat sessions resulted in better short- and long-term memory, improved verbal reasoning, and a longer attention span."

Exercise in the Morning
The secret to rising early is simple: Go to bed by 10 p.m. the night before and plan ahead. “When I want to train in the morning, I’ll set my workout clothes out at night, set the coffee to go off before I’m even out of bed, and have my workout written down, my iPod, and my water ready to go on the kitchen counter,” says Kara Mohr, PhD, owner of Mohr Results in Louisville, Kentucky.

Resveratrol References: As a post-workout tonic, I am not as sore !
The Mayo Clinic http://bit.ly/cKXOIs
"Most research on resveratrol has been conducted on animals, not people. In addition, to get the same dose of resveratrol used in the mice studies, a person would have to consume 100 to 1,000 bottles of red wine a day. Some research shows that resveratrol could be linked to a reduced risk of inflammation and blood clotting, both of which can lead to heart disease. More research is needed before it's known whether resveratrol was the cause for the reduced risk. The resveratrol in red wine comes from the skin of grapes used to make wine. Because red wine is fermented with grape skins longer than is white wine, red wine contains more resveratrol. Simply eating grapes, or drinking grape juice, has been suggested as one way to get resveratrol without drinking alcohol."

"Anti-inflammatory Effects
Inflammation promotes cellular proliferation and angiogenesis and inhibits apoptosis (32). Resveratrol has been found to inhibit the activity of several inflammatory enzymes in vitro, including cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase (33, 34). Resveratrol may also inhibit pro-inflammatory transcription factors, such as NFκB or AP-1 (35, 36)."

Triggering Your Body to Burn Fat
From Martica Heaner, Ph.D., M.A., M.Ed. http://on-msn.com/9zrljR
"The average person won’t lose muscle from doing cardio and won’t burn more fat by building more muscle, mostly because one has to eat more than usual (not diet) and lift seriously heavy weights to build more muscle. And even then that person probably won’t build enough muscle to make a difference."
"You will always burn more calories the longer or harder you exercise, no matter what your intensity is. So doing cardio for only 15 minutes makes no sense unless you are short on time. Burning BOTH fat calories and carb calories can result in fat loss or pounds off the scale."
