4 Workouts That Will Keep You Going All Year

February 13, 2017 by Jessica 2 Comments

Article By: Paige Johnson, Learnfit.org

In exercise, a lot of people tend to develop the habit of sticking to what works for them. However as with anything, all things change —including your body and what it needs to thrive. If you allow your muscles to become accustomed to your workout routine with little to no variety, you will begin to see little to no results. Little to no results will in turn lead to frustration and inactivity, which is never the goal! This year take the time to add variety to your existing fitness regimen and watch as your body changes along with you!

Join a jogging clubincrease focus, increase speed, eliminate meds, lose weight, gain muscle, get fast, Innovative Results, training

The benefits of jogging are tremendous and one of the best ways to yield results in your overall health and wellbeing. Jogging improves your cardiovascular fitness, strengthens your bones and it aids in maintaining a healthy weight. If you are new to jogging or just trying to find ways to spruce up your routine, joining a joggers group may be just the right step for you! You may find a runners club sponsored by your local sports store or you can form one in your own neighborhood! The primary foundation of a running group is to meet one or two times a week and run a select distance as a group. The encouragement and team response you will receive from participating in such a group will prove to be beneficial to your general mood as well as your health. The accountability that comes with running in a group also will assist you in maximizing your fitness efforts to attain better results!

Try a spin class

Spinning, a specific format of indoor cycling, is a exercise routine that has quickly made its way around the world. As you ride on a stationary cycling bike under the supervision of a certified spinning instructor, your heart rate will shoot up which in return allows you to sweat, burn a sustainable amount of calories and improve your lower body strength. Most spin classes typically last an hour or less and can be taken at your local gym or fitness facility. Classes are uptempo and accompanied with loud, adrenaline pumping music. Be sure to bring a towel for sweat and plenty of water! Consider bringing a friend to enjoy the new experience with you!

Practice yoga

Yoga is not your typical heart racing type of exercise, however if done properly the benefits practicing are amazing. The practice of yoga originated in India and has widespread across the globe as a phenomenal way to improve your mental and physical health and wellness. Physical benefits of yoga include increased core strength, increased flexibility and weight reduction. The mental benefits of yoga sharpens your concentration, helps you de-stress and also increases body awareness.

Start using weights

Jennifer Lifting with Kettlebell

The use of weights, also known as strength training is a wildly successful way to add more value to your fitness efforts. The use of weights create a compound called resistance, which can be explained as using your muscles to work against the extra pounds. Weight training helps you burn calories more efficiently than traditional exercise and it also reduces body fat. The best way to become introduced to strength training is by acquiring a personal trainer to allow yourself to see maximum results and avoid potential injuries. It doesn’t hurt to get some equipment for your home either.

Incorporating one or more of these exercises into your routine will be more than enough to keep your fitness goals on track throughout the year. Adding variety is the best way to ensure that you are getting the most out of your efforts, and it will keep you from inactivity due to boredom. Keep your routine fun and fresh by stepping outside of your workout habits and begin to enjoy the fittest, healthiest version of yourself!

Irvine Personal Trainer Solves Your Weight Loss Resolution

December 31, 2016 by ptpt 26 Comments

GirlsLC_pagsIrvine Personal Trainer Solves the New Year’s Resolution, To Lose Weight, with Simplicity, Automation, and Delegation

 

By: Aaron Guyett

 

The idea is to win or succeed in all of your endeavors and desires, and if you lose or fail, learning should occur to win the next time. This idea and the novel idea that all that has happened in the past is done and over, it can only be used to make better decisions for the future and to create the “right” actions, thoughts and words in the present. I think more than making the “right” decisions is being happy with the decisions made. So there is a one question to ask yourself before you continue. If you want to win…what is the emotion or reason behind the supposed #1 New Year’s Resolution, to lose weight?

 

If the reason or emotion is deep seeded enough, and the visualization of your success brings about happiness, let’s make your dreams come true!

jeff_laurie lunge

First, let’s simplify.

Losing weight is as simple as calories in and calories out. If this is true scientifically, you need only create thoughts, actions, and words to create a caloric deficit. How will you do this? Magic number 5:

  1. Write down your current situation specifically, with as many details as possible.
  2. Write down your goal specifically with as many details as possible. Now put away number one, and don’t look at it until March. Put your goal everywhere you look. When you see it remind yourself OUT LOUD what you are doing and why you are doing it (refer to the emotion or reason for the New Year’s Resolution).
  3. Know you can do it! (If you can’t get past this, than stop wasting your time reading this article)
  4. Become conscious of what you eat! (Write it all down. Everything that you put in you mouth liquid or solid, and know the calories) Journaling your diet is more of a mental task for yourself. If you don’t do it, hang up the resolution.
  5. Become active! Kill your TV, computer, (insert your biggest time waster here), and get outside and move! If you need help with this, email info@innovative-results.com.

Now it is time to automate.

Automation frees up time for you to do other things besides calculate calories and prepare meal plans. Two ways to do this:

  1. Get a trainer to do it for you. Email us at info@innovative-results.com
  2. Get an app (myfitnesspal is my favorite) and start recording your nutrition, hydration, and workouts. You will still need self-discipline. They will help you out, and it is free!

Last but not least delegate.

Delegation of your responsibilities, accountability, and discipline is a sure fire way to keep the flame burning bright and hot! 5 ways to delegate, what the delegation is:

  1. Accountability, responsibility, and disciplined can be delegated to a trainer and the trainer should help instill self-accountability, responsibility, and discipline.
  2. Family should hold you accountable to your goals. Be sure to describe the task they will be holding for you, because they love you and want you to succeed. If this is not the case with your family, fire them and make a new one.
  3. Friends should provide the same accountability systems as your family, if they are not on track with you, then your success should live with their uninvolved, unhelpful lives somewhere else.
  4. Co-workers cannot be fired, but they can be warned of the money that is involved should they adhere to your requests. Don’t have money? Tell them you are in a huge competition, and if you win you can take two people on a trip to the Cayman Islands. Hmmmm…who should I pick? (You might not win the competition, but you will win some hearts and minds for the time it takes you to get to your goal—maybe even some cheerleaders)
  5. Once you get to your goals you may rehire your lost family members, friends, and trainer for the spread of your newly acquired outlook on life. You did it!

Finding the Motivation to Make a Change

December 30, 2016 by ptpt 5 Comments

creating yourself

Finding the motivation to make a change is an ever elusive creature, taking us to the depths of despair and the highest mountain peaks.

As Zig Ziglar says, “People say motivation doesn’t last, and I say, ‘neither does bathing, which is why we should do it daily!'”

Everyone is looking to make some positive changes in their lives, but not every is actually able to make them and stick with them. I want to help you do both today with this motivation resource.

If you can make one small improvement, and keep it for the rest of your life, you will be on step further than most of the population on this planet of ours.

Motivations and goals are different, but when used together they are powerful beyond measure for great change and improvements in our life!!

So, how do you make your motivations and goals stick?

Why do most people make goals now and then forget about them a few weeks later?

I believe it has a lot to do with how those people set goals and how important those goals are to them in the first place.

So where do you start?

WAKSCawardsHere are some cool resources and articles to help get on the right track:

  • How to set goals
  • How to find motivation
  • How to stay on track
  • Wanna Lose weight?

I hope this year finds you with health and happiness.

You really can do everything you desire!

I believe in you!

Transformational Leadership and The Innovative Results Fitness Coach

Yoga demonstrates her strength and flexibility through yoga at the beach, and at Innovative Results.
Yoga demonstrates her strength and flexibility through yoga at the beach, and at Innovative Results.

The essay below is by Aubrie Pohl, an incredible leader and coach at Innovative Results.

Each fitness coach and intern at Innovative Results goes through a continued education and development system, that we call the IR3 progression (IR3 stands for Innovative Results-Mindset, Movement, Recovery).
We believe very strongly that each team member is a leader of leaders, and when a leader and fitness coach improves their quality of life, they will inevitably improve the quality of life for everyone they encounter throughout their life.
Aubrie has accomplished four levels of our company’s development and education system. The fourth level is no easy feat, taking Aubrie close to a year to complete, she finalized her achievement with this essay.
We are so proud of her, and are even happier that we get the opportunity to learn and be led by her each day at The Fitness Playground.

Is it an image of one individual standing in front of others?
What if, your perception of leadership was opened to one of an individual that helps guide growth, empowerment, and positive action in other people?
One that, instead of an individual standing IN FRONT of others, they are in fact NEXT TO or even BEHIND others?
Leadership is not only for presidents and bosses.
YOU can be a leader!
Leaders are made through intentions, actions, and adaptations.
It’s about you stepping up and committing to your growth and leadership.

The Hidden Solution to Successful Change – Innovative Results and Aaron Guyett’s Technique for Transformation

December 5, 2016 by ptpt 5 Comments

The Hidden Solution to Successful Change

Aaron Guyett is one of the Nations Top Trainers, as said in Ms. Fitness Magazine
Aaron Guyett is one of the Nation’s Top Trainers, as said in Ms. Fitness Magazine

Genesis
Genesis is part one in–The Hidden Solution to Successful Change. Genesis is the first book of the bible, giving account of the biblical Christian’s creation. It also means, the way in which something comes to be. I firmly believe the majority of the beings on earth (and possibly the beings in the universe) are blind to what is happening here and now. It seems everyone is fighting or struggling for a piece of the pie, when one need only relax and just be, creating peace and tranquility through thought and knowledge of self and the universe. Now, Genesis can take on a new meaning. One of new creation, formation, origination, and/or evolution of self in order to see and believe in the endless possibilities which are you.
1000

Understanding the Concept
The hidden solution, code, mystery, or hidden source to success is to adjust one’s psycho-cybernetic mechanism through neural reconditioning by PIVADRUM, which creates cataclysmic change through creative streaming.

To achieve endless success or enlightened oneness with the source (energy, universe, god) or whatever else one may call it (infinite love, ultimate achievement, unlimited freedom, etc.) one need only look as far as oneself. Life and our interaction with life is created by our perception through an infinite source or being. This agrees with religion and science, god and the big bang, energy and universe. Simply put we and the things around we are energy and movement of this energy in a field of nothingness. This means the energy is either a creation of god or it is the movement from an infinite source called “the big bang.” No one can answer as to what was there before the big bang, but I can try.

Only consciousness or an infinite thought without the constraints of time and space.
Why create physical manifestations with time and space—why not? I cannot give you a thesis or a word that says it any better, and I think even if I devote my entire (limited) physical and (theoretically unlimited) spiritual life to this answer, I am guessing it wouldn’t come out any better. Now we can move on to oneself again.

Again I say, this limited physical life is only our perception. We are not our brain. We are not our body. We are not our superficial clothes, cars, properties, etc., but we do use this to define us to ourselves. If you think you will have successful change when you own a Ferrari, then when you own a Ferrari, you will be successful. If you believe what someone else’s belief is for success, then you need only live up to his or her expectations. So I say let us define ourselves with endless possibilities—it is our birth right in this physical universe of time and space.

If that was amusing, then strap yourselves in for an even more interesting ride!

brain gearssmPsycho-Cybernetic Mechanism
One’s brain is a psycho-cybernetic mechanism, especially the part of the brain that is one’s subconscious. The subconscious controls most of what one does. If it did not most of us would be an inactive drooling mess concentrating on just moving from one place to another. Without even thinking consciously your brain performs a symphony of functions in a blink of an eye—digestion, blood pumping, breathing, scratching, balancing, dreaming, visualizing, reading, thought, answering, and much more—and that was just to answer a question posed on this paper. Why? Just try to imagine the processes one goes through on a daily basis.

Now, knowledge of this is imperative for how to adjust one’s psycho-cybernetic mechanism. A cybernetic mechanism is a machine that creates homeostasis. Like a thermostat in a room, a cybernetic mechanism will perpetuate or try to perpetuate whatever is programmed into that machine. For instance if one programs a thermostat for 72 degrees, the thermostat will activate the heat or cooling for that room depending if the room is getting warmer or colder. The subconscious does this as well.

Think about what you eat for lunch as an example. If all one knows is fast food one’s body and brain will think about fast food lunches, prepare for fast food lunches, see fast food lunches, and eat fast food lunches until the psycho-cybernetic mechanism is changed to think, prepare, see, and eat a different type of lunch. So how would one change their psycho-cybernetic mechanism?

5-brain-food-1024x668Neural Reconditioning
This is reconditioning the sub-conscious to think, prepare, see, and perform what one’s desired objective is. As an example think of the time when a new car is purchased, do you start seeing that car more often, or better yet, think about when you really want a new car. You haven’t even bought the new car, yet you start seeing it everywhere. Does this mean you created new cars in your head? No, but now your subconscious mind is looking for these cars, whereas before it was not needed information or programmed information for your subconscious.

Neural reconditioning is the creation of highly functioning, often used neural pathways inside your brain, which create certain chemicals and biological processes for the brain, forming a continually used thought or direction of thought. This neurological pathway should take the place of the other pathways and therefore atrophy the pathway which is not used. Using the example one would create a neurological web of pathways for the consumption of healthy foods bought from the store and made for lunch daily. This neural reconditioning can be formed in many ways, and is more successful if there is emotion and creative streaming (or different methods for differing senses). I have created a system called PIVADRUM, which includes as many angles as possible to reach the subconscious in repetition.

Aaron Guyett Views Commando Course

PIVADRUM
PIVADRUM is an acronym, which stands for Prayer (or Positive talk), Imagine, Visualize, Affirm and Declare, Recondition, Understanding (your current emotion/feeling), Meditate. I will show you the path, but you have to be the one that chooses to walk on it. I would love to talk about our PIVADRUM in our weekly interactions.

Prayer or Positive talk
This is a written, read, and said (OUT LOUD) intention in the present tense. It is usually expressed as a thank you or at least with gratitude. The prayer is broken into what you are thankful for, what you have done (which is really what you want to do), the reciprocation of values you want/have/give, why you do what you do, and ease of the process through oneness with the source of divinity (whatever you believe it to be). Here is one as an example:

I am grateful, thankful, and appreciative of every moment! I love life! I am thankful for my global business; my happy, loving, and abundant family; my knowledge and thirst for knowledge, which grows incrementally as time goes on. I have made many accomplishments! I love you; I am loved. I am happy for you; I am happy. I am happy you are abundant; I am abundant! I am love, happiness, and abundance! I live for myself, my family, and my business because I am remembered for the love, happiness, and abundance I give the universe. The universe reciprocates my contributions! The source is kind and gentle in the lessons for my life, and I am closer to the one that is the source: lord, god, energy, universe, life, love, force, unity.

Imagine
Then I go into Imagine. This is where I imagine the endless or infinite possibilities of my life. It can be difficult, but I do it by seeing my standing with the ability to move in any direction, or I try to imagine that everything is made up of the same energy at a subatomic level, which can be changed by my mind’s/spirit’s thoughts.

Visualize
Now, my favorite, time to Visualize, this is where I play a movie in my head, where I have the lead role, and I am in the future, doing the things I want to do and having the things I want to have. I would write mine down but it would take forever to explain because it has become so detailed. The more detailed the better, because your subconscious perceives it as real.

Affirm and Declare
Then I go through a few positive Affirmations and/or Declarations such as: I am love, happiness, and abundance (or I have it/give it). I am at one with the source. I have a strong body, mind, and spirit, which has unconscious competence (this is a new one! ?), etc.
Recondition by writing it down
Now I write down whatever comes to my mind and then Recondition by reading it, or by looking at pictures/video/words of what I want/have/give. Even smelling familiar or similar smells associated with the objective.

Rob Trained with Innovative Results.
Rob Trained with Innovative Results.

Understand
To Understand, I just ask myself how I feel in the present moment, and then answer with whatever comes to mind (keeping it positive, even if something bad is going on): I feel excited, loved, energized, and satisfied! or I feel grateful that I have an opportunity to achieve love, happiness, abundance in this moment and in the future. (Thus recognizing the present moment isn’t going well, but knowing that without it I would not be human and achieving success wouldn’t be satisfying.

Meditate
The last step is to Meditate. It could be three cleansing breaths long or for an hour at a time. I use one of two different methods. Either I focus on my breathing for about 12-20 breaths trying to “cleanse and strengthen” my body and mind with each breath or I use Holosync, which is a technology putting your brain in an Alpha, theta, or delta wave-state (for more info check out http://www.centerpointe.com).

FINAL WORDS
Every item above should be performed with extreme emotion (notably positive), which will help the neural connections fuse faster, and become larger. (just like traumatic events can create massive mind issues, like Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or winning records) All of this takes about 5-20 minutes (or an hour plus with Holosync) depending on my time available and the detail I use for the different methods.
Have fun with PIVADRUM a few times a day (four is a great number: once in the morning when waking, twice in the afternoon, and once right before bed) and I can’t wait to hear about your progress!

Strength Over Stress: Do More than You’ve Ever Done Before

November 15, 2016 by Jessica 5 Comments

Article Written By: Margaret Fajardo

mission viejo personal trainer

She had already competed in an earlier event. For the entire ten minutes, first-time Kettlebell Sport lifter Kelly Boaitey finished with 159 repetitions in lifting Jerk, not once setting down the 8 kg kettlebell. But this was just the first lift out of two. When she was going up to the platform for Long Cycle, Boaitey kept telling her teammates that she was already tired and wasn’t sure how she could go on. As the announcer counted down the seconds to begin, she couldn’t complain anymore (or maybe she did a little). At the end of another ten minutes, not once did Boaitey set down her kettlebell. And like the first lift, she had reps in the three-digits, achieving a personal goal of 101.

As a self-employed, single mom of three, fifty-year-old Boaitey is no stranger to stress. Her occupation involves miles and miles of being on the road. Despite needing to be at a different place at different times during the week, Boaitey makes time to go to Innovative Results, Orange County’s Fitness Playground. She said, “I find ways to get there, 3 days a week, at 5 a.m.” For Boaitey, there are definite results each time she shows up to a training session. As Boaitey said, “I can go there feeling absolute crap, overwhelmed, it’s the last thing I wanna do, and I come out feeling like a completely different person in an hour.” And with every hour that Boaitey has put in at Innovative Results, she rarely ever says “I can’t.” Her recent success as a novice Kettlebell Sport Lifter is the next level in her health and fitness journey. She admits to surprising herself: “I never imagined to be where I am only because I never tried to go there. I used to say I can’t a lot..but I’ve done things that I’ve far surpassed I could ever do.”

Beat Stress: An Even More Important Reason to Stay Active

Kelly KB

Many health and fitness experts have highlighted how stress impacts us all, regardless of whether or not we are at our ideal weight or need to lose a few pounds. In fact, everyday stress can exacerbate health challenges we already struggle with. According to Aaron Guyett, Innovative Results Owner and Head Coach:

“Stress is a part of our life. Either we feel stressed or we feel lazy. Yet we can mitigate the tension of stress by preparing our bodies and minds with the daily routine of exercise. The victory and mindset-improving exercise designed into each Innovative Results workout, prepares our clients to realize their best, and deliver that ‘best’ in every area of their life outside of the gym.”

Boaitey has said that she’s “stayed with Innovative Results for my mental well-being.” In addition, she goes because “as I get older, wanting the core strength to prevent the things that happen to older people. I’m only 50 so better start now.”

Strong Never Gets Old: Uplift Yourself By Lifting Kettlebells

Innovative Results has hosted a few Kettlebell Sport competitions. Innovative Results even has a Kettlebell Sport Team. Earlier this year, Boaitey was a spectator at the Cali Open and cheered on fellow Innovative Results members. Boaitey has said of the experience: “There’s such a diverse group of people that do it – thin, heavy, muscular, not-so-muscular, old, young, really young – there’s something in it for everyone. If you wanted to do it, you could do it….After going to the competition, I’ve not only said to myself I could do this, but I said to myself, I think this would be fun. And it is!”

Besides attending Innovative Results signature hour-long training sessions, Boaitey has added kettlebell lifting progressions to her regimen. She now can perform all the technical lifts in Kettlebell Sport: Jerk, Snatch, and Long Cycle. She has been happy to share her athletic journey. She said, “The world kind of tells you that you’re old for certain things and your body tells you too… but in terms of peers outside of Innovative Results, they ask me ‘So what do you do?’ In the past, I would’ve just said, I go to the gym. But now I say, ‘I do Kettlebell Sport!’”

Stress Loses When You Go Social

There is no room for feeling stress when the social atmospheres of both the hour-long training sessions and the Kettlebell sport competitions are friendly, encouraging, and fun. It’s no wonder that Boaitey commits to improving her quality of life. As she said, “There’s always someone at Innovative Results to encourage you. It’s not just the trainers.” There may be physical challenges. There may be struggle. But everyone overcomes all, together.

The team environment at Innovative Results is a health benefit with immediate results. Not only do workouts engage body and brain, but working out as a team creates connections that are as important to health as strong muscles. People smile. People give high-fives and pats on the back. No one is ever alone in going through something difficult. Getting fit while getting social can only feel good. Feeling fit and healthy isn’t just about physical well-being. It’s also about emotional health. When your body feels good from the outside-in and the inside-out, stress doesn’t stand a chance.

Are Holidays Making You Fat?

Most people will allow parties, dinners, shopping and other distractions ‘sideline’ them for 2 months…

Start today and make a decision to stay on track with your fitness goals.

Remember why you started making these changes: improve quality of life, live for your kids, enjoy activities, breath easier, or look better for your significant other.

What still needs to change?

Picture it, write it down and make it a priority.

Dana Point personal trainersWhat can you do to stay on track?

Here are 7 Tips to Keep Holiday Weight Off  This Year- Adopt three or so of the following strategies:

  1. Use the appetizer plate for dinner.  (smaller plate)
  2. Put only two items on your plate during any given trip to the table. Return as many times as you like, but only take two items each time.
  3. Use the volume approach to make yourself feel full.  Chow down on the big healthy stuff (broccoli and carrots) and then see if you have room for the rest.
  4. When you think you will be distracted by an important (or fun) conversation, set the food down and give it your full attention.  Remember, the more you’re distracted by people or events–the Superbowl—perhaps– the more you will tend to eat unknowingly.
  5. If you are really worried about overeating at a cocktail party or buffet-style meal, arrive late or leave early.  If you show up late, most of the good stuff will be gone.  Leave early and you will make it easier to avoid a second (or third) helping of dessert.
  6. Don’t wear comfortable clothing to a party! Wear your tightest dress or pants and then put a belt on top. You’ll not only look hot, you’ll know exactly when you’ve eaten too much.
  7. Stick to your healthy eating habits 80-90% of the time, then plan cheat meals (parties).

A healthy body comes from healthy eating.

Stick to your workout plan during the holidays.

Most people let shopping, parties and everything else throw them into a tail spin.

Plan your workouts into your day and make them a priority.

Location or lack of a gym is NOT an excuse.

If you’ll take this info and apply it, you will avoid gaining weight this holiday season.

If you have specific questions or concerns, talk to your coach.

Reduce Stress and Increase Happiness in This Ten Minutes Per Day Habit – Improve Your Quality of Life Today!

October 6, 2016 by IR Staff 2 Comments

happyReduce Stress and Increase Happiness?
In Ten Minutes or less per day?
Sounds too good to be true, right?
This article might be long, but it will be worth the read, if you would like to experience an increase in your happiness, satisfaction, and success.
I have been partaking in a daily habit that is completely transforming the way I think about my life, my relationships, my work, and my purpose in life, and at this point, it would be selfish and wrong to not share this with the people in my life that want to experience improved quality of life. So here it goes…
Founder and Owner, Aaron Guyett with his kids.
Founder and Owner, Aaron Guyett with his kids.

How can you spend 2 to 10 minutes every day, and experience more happiness, satisfaction, and success, even in the midst of our busy and stressful lives?

 

First, we need to understand that thinking happy, satisfying, and successful thoughts goes against our nature. All of humanity is wired to remember and focus on the negative, and in case you think you are the exception, read these questions and ponder the answer.
Which thing can you remember faster, something a significant other in your life did that was good or bad?
busy lifestyleWhen you have performed a thousand good deeds or actions for your boss or job, why do they (or you) recall or focus on the one bad thing?
When asked a general question about the way you perform, why do you instantly think with a negative bias, and tend to find your body language, words, or thoughts to be defensive in nature?
Why do we tend to believe the World is getting more violent, oppressive, and dangerous, when every study of history depicts the opposite is in fact occurring in today’s World?
This is the way our minds were created, and without getting overly spiritual, this is what keeps us out of harms way.
kettlebell, kettlebell team, innovative results kettlebell team, Amanda Clover, Keri Guyett, Harrel Carman, Aaron Guyett, Manny Aragon, Christabel Tabbada, Jessica CiskeIf negatives didn’t affect us in a profound way psychologically, we would find ourselves eaten by animals, walking in front of fast-moving cars, and stepping off buildings, bridges, or cliffs often.
The issue with this brain wiring, is that even though life is easier and safer, relative to our human history, we are more depressed, anxious, and medicated than ever before.
We don’t have to fall into this pattern, though. We can make daily choices that help us focus on all of the good stuff, and experience lives that are happier, more satisfying, and more successful, despite the social, emotional, and environmental  pressure and stress that can seem to surround us.

If we train our brains to focus on the positives and help seat these positives deep into our psycho-social rhythms, we will reap amazing quality-of-life improvements (And that is what Innovative Results is all about).
Daily movement is shown to improve us psychologically, just as much if not more than it improves us physiologically, but if our thoughts are bad, even playful movement can seem like a daunting task or difficult chore.
I challenge you, to take the 90 Day Bliss challenge:
  • Take 2 to 10 minutes everyday to partake in one of the Bliss App exercises to improve your quality of life for 90 days in a row.
summer-beach-fun-wallpaperWhy perform positive psychology or positive neuroplasticity training (PNT) daily?
From the Bliss App Page:
“Psychologists have identified a collection of exercises, or “interventions,” which have been shown to create long-lasting improvements in happiness, motivation, resilience, life-satisfaction, and a host of other positive mental traits. Bliss packages these exercises up for you in one application so that you can easily incorporate them into your life and reap all the benefits from decades of research in positive psychology.”
You can get the Bliss app on your phone (even iPhone) here: http://bliss31.com/about.php
If you are interested in some of the research behind this I suggest reading:
  • “The Happiness Advantage” by: Shawn Achor
  • Dr. Rick Hanson’s handout here: https://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/fwb-media.rickhanson.net/PDFfiles/UsingYourMindToChangeYourBrain.pdf
  • And this study http://www.rickhanson.net/teaching/tgc-public-summary/
There is a lot more material proving the point, but I won’t burden you with an exhaustive bibliography.
Know that I want you to experience improved quality of life through increased happiness, satisfaction, success, and purpose in you life, and I believe you will appreciate this HUGE step in that direction!

Victory and the Versaclimber is an Innovative Results Daily Habit – Read The Story of E.O. and Sidney Here

Victory and The VersaClimber: Part of an Innovative Results Daily Habit

By: Margaret Fajardo

E.O. With a Sea Monster

It has become a time-honored ritual for two. Having just finished Innovative Results’ signature fitness training session, Sidney Sudberg and Eric Olson get on the VersaClimber and bust out a series of sprints. For many fitness session attendees at Innovative Results, the VersaClimber is a personal Everest. Its unique vertical climbing motion works the entire body, not to mention spiking the heart rate within milliseconds. Despite its efficiency, getting on the VersaClimber for 10-, 20-, and 30-second bursts, or even a full minute is no easy task.

Sudberg is a chiropractor of almost 70 years. Among his many physical credits is being an avid practitioner of yoga. Before every Innovative Results session, Sudberg stretches out and works on a variety of yoga poses. Olson is an entrepreneur in his late 40s. An experienced motocross rider, Olson has successfully gone from slow and overweight to defined and explosive in the last year and has continually advanced in his sport.

Sudberg and Olson show up to the 6am session, always ready for whatever the coaches have planned. Whether the workout focuses on upper body, lower body, or total body, Sudberg and Olson push themselves to the max. Getting on the VersaClimber then becomes an even sweatier yet sweeter victory to their morning routine.

Why Innovative Results Incorporates the VersaClimber

VersaClimber 3 at Innovative Results“It’s not a machine. It’s a tool, “ said Aaron Guyett, Innovative Results Founder and Master Coach. Guyett makes it a point to emphasize this distinction when referring to the VersaClimber. While electric fans are the only machines to speak of at Guyett’s gym – there are no static weight machines, treadmills, or TVs – his space certainly isn’t lacking in quality tools and equipment. Guyett’s coaching expertise maximizes each and every training tool available to him and his coaching staff, and the VersaClimber is no exception.

As Guyett elaborates: “We made the VersaClimber a big part of our programming because it integrates contralateral movements. It works your right and left brain together, which makes your brain function at a higher level, and reduces your stress at the same time.”

This brain-body connection produces multiple benefits. As Guyett explains, “Through its contralateral pattern, the VersaClimber has allowed current clients to overcome mental stresses and find deeper strength and deeper stores of energy by building aerobic capacity, and pushing them to new levels of understanding of how well their body and mind can perform.”

Irvine fitness training, Irvine Personal Training, Irvine Gym, Innovative Results, Orange County Fitness PlaygroundWhile most of us don’t climb vertically very often, the VersaClimber can still be an effective tool for overall fitness. Guyett talks about how the VersaClimber has “helped improve people’s coordination and performance in other active pursuits such as running, walking, sprinting, swimming, cycling. On top of the added benefits of increasing lean body mass, reduced body fat, and higher aerobic capacity, the reduced stress levels and efficient brain function, will improve people’s quality of life at home and at work.”

Get In, Get On, and Go All The Way

It looks like one of them will beat the other. But in fact, all are victorious, because Sudberg and Olson aren’t competing against each other. They’re each trying to beat their own previous records. As Olson said, “[The VersaClimber is] Something that gives you a number. When you’re doing it, you have the feedback of where you’re hitting, what the number is, how many feet per minute, what your time’s gonna be. It’s kinda like a true measurement.” His numbers have greatly increased. He now can climb 300 feet in one minute, completely obliterating his first time result of 202 feet in the same time. As Olson recalled, “First time we did a minute test, I hit 202, I was gassed and tired, I mean beat. I’ve gotten over 300 now and walk away from it. That’s the mark.” As a motocross rider, Olson has seen the added benefits of his cardio climb. He said, “Now, I can stay on my bike longer, have a lower heart rate while I’m riding.”

In the last year and a half at Innovative Results, Sudberg has experienced various kinds of progress. Among the greatest rewards are gaining more courage and conquering challenges. As Sudberg said, “What I didn’t expect was to experience the great sense of accomplishment and physical strength after doing the daily exercise routine and that with the greater resistance, came the keen sense that all challenges in life are the same.” This mindset helps him power through the added challenge of the Versaclimber. As Sudberg recalls, “At first, this was near impossible for me to keep up with, but with the consistent commitment of E.O. and my own personal commitment to overcoming my physical and mental resistance, I prevailed and now look forward to these ‘extra credit’ workouts, physically as well as mentally.”

Sudberg and Olson aren’t the only ones who go the extra mile. With the support and expertise of every Innovative Results coach, every client can successfully reach his or her own personal summit. Much like each VersaClimber step, every effort brings you closer and closer to your best.
