Navy Fit Week 22

This is breakfast week. If you followed last week’s nutritional advice, you should already be doing it. Breakfast stokes the fire. Breakfast starts your day off with your body in “Burn mode.” Who has time? Well, there are products out there that you can use as a meal supplement. Nothing beats mother nature but you have options if time is an issue.

EAS makes a product called Myloplex (http://www.eas.com/Products/DailyNutrition). I’ve tried it. It is not bad. Strawberry was my favorite with Chocolate not far behind. You can pick up the ready to drink kind at Walmart. Fast, convenient and easy to drink on the way to work.
I also like the Naked Juices smoothies (http://www.nakedjuice.com/#Homepage). You can keep them in the fridge or grab one on the way to work. They are in the fresh fruit section of your grocery store. The secret to smoothies is the thicker, the more satisfying. You will have a lot to choose from.

What about eggs and bacon? Moderation is the key. Try this recipe.
• Scrabble 2 – 3 eggs. (Only use one egg yoke.)
• While the egg is setting, add two pieces of crumble bacon. (Only cook 2 pieces of bacon).
Feel free to add other natural items like:
• Mushrooms
• Slices green pepper
• Tomatoes
• Onions

Stay away from the potatoes. They spike your glucosamine levels. That will make you hungry and put your body into “Store” mode.

For this weeks workout, we are going to stick to the 30 minute routine.
• 3 – 5 pushups with a 5 second hold in the down position.
• Walk for 10 minutes.
• Do 7 sets of running for 4 telephone poles and walking for 2.
• Complete the rest of the 30 minutes by walking.
