Just Your Type - The Ultimate Guide to Eating and Training Right for Your Body Type (Paperback): Phil Catudal, Stacey Colino Just Your Type - The Ultimate Guide to Eating and Training Right for Your Body Type (Paperback)
Phil Catudal, Stacey Colino
R442 Discovery Miles 4 420 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

According to fitness guru Phil Catudal, 70% of us are exercising the wrong way. To fix that, he now offers readers the same program he uses to great success with Hollywood celebrities--his "Fearless Flexible Diet." To achieve lasting fitness and health, you need to work with your natural-born body type and do the optimal combination of aerobic, strength training, and flexibility exercises and consume the right proportion of macronutrients for your physique. While fitness trends and fad diets will come and go, your body type (somatotype) is the one constant that's never going to change. The message behind Just Your Type is simple but powerful: if you want to be healthy, fit, slim, and strong, focus on the physical and dietary moves that will enhance your natural-born body type. Just Your Type reveals how to accurately figure out your natural body type (ectomorph, mesomorph, endomorph, or, most often, a hybrid of those types), and help anyone create an individualized workout that's tailored to their body shape and composition. Just Your Type is your roadmap to the best combination of aerobic, strength training, and flexibility exercises and consume the right proportion of nutrients for your physique. Working harder isn't always the answer, but working smarter is.

A Biblically grounded, six-week plan to lead you on the path toward losing weight and getting healthier by focusing on the connections between spiritual and physical health--"Seven Sundays is a powerful tool that will enlighten you to see wellness and spirituality with a fresh perspective" (Kathie Lee Gifford). In Seven Sundays, celebrity trainer and devoted follower of Christ Alec Penix explains the connection between faith and fitness, and shares both his own and his clients' success stories. When our spiritual and physical bodies are built up simultaneously, we find ourselves more likely to stick with healthier, life-changing habits, appreciate what we have, be thankful for what we've gained (and lost), and feel content with how far we've traveled. Seven Sundays is a six-week program that shows you how easy it is to undergo your own total transformation. The book is organized as a day-by-day journey in the same manner as a daily devotional. Over the course of each week, you will work on the "6 Pillars of Purpose" that build up this strength. You will also enjoy "Faith-Full" foods and explore a new spiritual theme each week. Ultimately, you'll undertake a meaningful journey that will finally connect your body and spirit. Seven Sundays is sure to "inspire people to become the best version of themselves, through strengthening their body, mind, and spirit" (Roma Downey, actress, producer, and New York Times bestselling author of Box of Butterflies). You'll learn to embrace the fact that you deserve to exercise, eat right, and be healthy, and recognize your body as a spiritual vessel.

So often we characterize our food cravings as bad or guilt-inducing. But craving isn't a bad thing. The reality is we were made to crave. We just need to realize God created us to crave more of Him instead of misplacing that craving by overindulging in physical pleasures and unhealthy food that will always disappoint. In the midst of her own personal struggle with this, New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst invites us to find the missing link between a woman's desire to be healthy and the spiritual empowerment necessary to make that happen.

In this newly revised and condensed book, Lysa shows us how to:

• Break the cycle of "I'll start again Monday" and feel good about yourself today
• Stop agonizing over numbers on the scale and make peace with your body
• Replace rationalizations that lead to failure with wisdom that leads to victory
• Reach your healthy goals and grow closer to God through the process

This is not a "how-to" book. This is not the latest and greatest dieting plan. This is the necessary resource to use alongside whatever healthy lifestyle plan you choose that will help you find your "want to" and lead to a spiritual satisfaction that goes far beyond the physical.

R826 Discovery Miles 8 260 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

What do you do when the meals are over and the dressing has been accomplished? Those caring for a person with an illness or disability who ask themselves this question can find a wealth of answers in "Making the Moments Count." For professional, volunteer, and family caregivers, here is an invaluable guide for creating meaningful and enjoyable activities. Whatever the ages or circumstances of the people in a caregiving relationship, such shared moments can bring positive changes in the present and build memories to treasure in the future.

In "Making the Moments Count," therapeutic recreation specialist Joanne Ardolf Decker provides practical, "doable" suggestions for spending leisure time with people of all ages who need care, whether they are recovering from an illness, facing a terminal disease, or growing older and more dependent on outside help. Caregivers are obviously important in providing help with feeding, hygiene, and health care. But they are also crucially important in caring for the mind and spirit. This book will help caregivers accomplish that part of their jobs when life is most difficult--when the need for joy and meaning is greatest.

Through descriptions of individual situations, Decker shows how caregivers can focus on:

- Keeping the mind active - General body movement - Influencing self-esteem and outlook - Making plans for each day - Keeping outings simple - Hobbies, interests, and feeling useful

In addition to case examples of individual situations and lists of suggestions for appropriate leisure activities, Decker provides information about the benefits of the activities and how to adapt them to fit different abilities, interests, and age groups. Checklists are provided for recording information about the person receiving care--information about which activities were meaningful in the past, what is possible in the current situation, and how activities might be enjoyed in the future.

"Making the Moments Count" is a valuable resource for professional caregivers and volunteers, and for family and friends who provide care for a loved one, whether in the home or in an institutional setting.
