Directors DeskYour exercise & wellness planDear Members, family and friends
Its the start of the new-year, the festivities are over and yourannual holiday is now a memory.
Most businesses have opened their doors again and are gearingup for what lies ahead in 2009.
At the start of each year it is common practice for a business to
prepare a business plan and to map out the pathway for thecoming year so that they achieve their goals and make a profit.You have all heard of the saying Businesses dont plan to fail,they fail to plan.
Lets look at your health, fitness, and well being as being abusiness and you are now planning for the year ahead.
Have you prepared an exercise and wellness plan for yourself tomake sure that you achieve your health and fitness goals and alsomake a profit in 2009.
I recommend the first step in preparing you health and fitness planis to have a health check. The second step is to speak to yourtrainer and discuss exactly what goals you want to achieve.Together with you they will make session and trainingrecommendations that suit your individual requirements andmakes sure that your goals will be met and provide the motivationguidance and support.
The third step is to plan your weekly schedule which will help withthe implementation of the plan. Fourth on the list are techniques tohelp you stick to your plan. Chat to your trainer about using yourtraining diary; entering events; participating in sessions that youdont normally do like Boot camp.
The fifth step is one of the most important monitoring.Monitoring your plan to make sure it is working.
Once again speak to your trainer. Step into Life provides you withvarious items that will help you to record and measure yourperformance. Our suite of reports, fortnightly, time trial, fitness testprovide you with a record of your results. These reports enable
you to compare current results with past results to measureimprovement. Our training club reward system is designed to keepyou motivated and to enhance commitment.
Make some time to spend a few minutes with your trainer to makea plan and make 2009 the year where you achieve all your healthand fitness goals.
All the bestMark CohenDirector

Health & Fitness ArticleDehydration - A major cause of decreased human sports performance!What is dehydration?Dehydration is the excessive loss of water from the body, as from illness or fluid deprivation. Any person who exercises on a regular basis issusceptible to the effects of even mild fluid loss. The value of the body's most important nutrient, water, cannot be underestimated.
Exercise produces body heat, and too much body heat reduces exercise capacity. As the core body temperature rises, blood flow to the skinincreases, and the body attempts to cool itself by sweating. During intense exercise, the body temperature rises as high as 39 degrees Celsius(105 degrees Fahrenheit) and the muscle temperature can rise as high as 40 degrees Celsius (108 degrees Fahrenheit). These temperaturesmake exercise difficult because the body and muscles are competing for blood.As the body temperature rises, oxygen becomes more of a commodity due to increased circulatory demands. Oxygen is needed to help with thecooling process, and reduces the amount of oxygen available for vital organs, which can lead to severe health risks as well as a drop in athletic
performance. When you start exercising, as much as two percent of the body water is lost. Although this amount is considered a "normal" rangefor humans, it is certainly not an optimum level for athletic performance. Below is a table that summarizes the effects of minimal fluid loss duringexercise.
PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS AND EFFECTS OF DEHYDRATIONBody symptoms water lost1% Few symptoms or signs of any thirst present, however, there is a marked reduction in VO2 max.2% Beginning to feel thirsty, loss of endurance capacity and appetite.3% Dry mouth; performance impaired.4% Increased effort for exercise, impatience, apathy, vague discomfort, loss of appetite.5% Difficulty concentrating, increased pulse and breathing, slowing of pace.6-7% Further impairment of temperature regulation, higher pulse and breathing, flushed skin, sleepiness, tingling, stumbling, headache.8-9% Dizziness, laboured breathing, mental confusion, further weakness.10% Muscle spasms, loss of balance, swelling of tongue.11% Heath Exhaustion, delirium, stroke, difficulty swallowing, death can occur.
Dehydration can cause any or all of the following:Increased heart rate (beats per minute) Increased lactate acid in muscles (increased blood acidity) Increased body temperature Decreased strength Any of the following medical conditions: heat cramping, heat exhaustion & heat stroke
The best way to avoid fluid loss is often the simplest: drink plenty of fluids. Water is sufficient to replenish the fluids that are lost during exercise.However, water cannot replace the minerals that are lost during exercise-induced sweating. Sweating releases potassium, sodium, and calcium,which are vital for survival. These minerals, also known as electrolytes, are not found in water. It is therefore advisable to consume a supplement,which contains these added minerals, before any strenuous exercise. One such supplement that contains these electrolytes is a sports drink
Although these sports drinks can contain a combination of vitamins and minerals, they also contain simple and complex carbohydrates,predominantly simple sugars, which provide the athlete with an added amount of glucose. This glucose, which is converted by the body into fuel,can later be used to power working muscles.
The carbohydrates that are found in sports drinks are designed, when used as directed, to help in performance, but do not play a direct role inhydration. The added nutrients, potassium, sodium, and calcium, along with the water content of the sports drink, are the determining factors inhydration.

Dehydration continued.Exercise scientists, along with savvy marketers, havedesigned the newest product to conquer dehydration- fitness water. This new product has taken regularwater and added minerals and vitamins, including
those vital electrolytes, potassium, sodium, andcalcium. This new product targets fitness enthusiaststhat want to protect against dehydration, but who arelooking to keep their calorie count and sugar intake toa minimum, which can help with weight loss goals.
Caffeinated drinks should typically be avoided beforeand during exercise. Caffeinated products increaseurine output, which raises the amount of fluid loss.This fluid loss is exactly what we are trying to avoid.Many people drink caffeinated drinks before exerciseto obtain extra energy. A suggestion to those whoneed the extra energy avoid the caffeine and takea vitamin B tablet instead. The vitamin B tablet willgive the extra energy desired, without the increasedfluid loss.
Another product to avoid, especially in relation tohydration, is alcohol. Alcohol, like caffeine, increasesurine output, which increases fluid loss. Althoughmost people will not consume alcohol just beforeexercising, it should be noted that a few drinks thenight before a morning workout could have a largenegative effect on hydration levels. If youre planningon exercising the morning after consuming alcohol,drink plenty of fluids, including those necessaryelectrolytes.
Taking in the required electrolytes, as well as
satisfactory levels of fluids, will determine yourhydration level. It is vital to monitor the body and tocontinually take in fluids. By the time thirst sets in, thebody has already lost at least two percent of its fluid,and dehydration occurs. At any chance possiblebefore and during exercise consume fluids to avoidthe harmful consequences of dehydration.
