Aerobic Capacity Wellness Awareness Weeks with Alicia Weber

By: Alicia Weber Click here to visit JD Productions.

We are currently underway with the first weeks of 13 for the Fitness Makeover here in Central Florida where almost 30 participants are enrolled to improve their physical fitness. We begin with becoming aware of the importance of aerobic capacity wellness. There are two ways to assess aerobic capacity wellness: (1.) A direct assessment of the maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) and (2.) An indirect assessment with rigorous exercise measuring heart rate in response to a given workload. We are reviewing # 2 and over the next weeks, personal clients, fitness makeover participants, and I will be testing aerobic capacity wellness in very unconventional ways!

The conventional ways (and standard ways) to test aerobic capacity through indirect assessment are by any of the following: 1. Rockport Walk Test, 2. 1.5 mile run/walk test, 3. 12-minute run test, 4. Treadmill Tests, 5. Bicycle Tests, and 6. Queens College Step Test. Now, we WON’T be doing any of these tests in our review.

We will NOT be “testing”, but rather trying unconventional exercises that are highly aerobic and evaluating their effectiveness based on the results of improving strength, aerobic capacity, and speeding up metabolism, and stimulating fat loss. The exercises that give the best overall results will be announced at a later date…So Stay Tuned!

In the meantime, GET ENERGIZED as Alicia Weber puts her aerobic capacity wellness to the test in a high intensity aerobic dance with strength moves!

Do you have a favorite aerobic exercise? If so, let us know by leaving a comment below.

Thanks and Keep Huffing and Puffing,

Alicia Weber

Truth About Supplements: Drink and Die, or Eat and Cry!

By:  Alicia Weber

Would you drink or eat a supplement that promised to give you a better body or a performance edge?  Well Think TWICE…if you want to stay alive….

See What Happens When Madalina Drinks this so called “Performance-Enhancing Drink.”

Consumers need to be SMART and NOT be fooled by supplements that may say “All Natural” or “Perfectly Safe” or “This supplement can prevent, treat, or cure any disease… or any other exaggerated claim”  These are RED FLAGS and don’t be pulled to buy any of these supplements with these statements.  Thoroughly evaluate labels and check for the following 19 devastating ingredients and if found in a supplement, keep it on the shelf to rot!!

Alicia Weber Fitness Makeover Stand Up Comedy Show

By:  Weber Way to Wellness Reporter Click here to visit JD Productions.

CLERMONT, Fla (January 27, 2011) —Alicia Weber, entertainer, fitness trainer, and world record setting elite athlete, performed on stage as her character “Madalina Seg” as she revealed weight loss and strength gain secrets!! On stage in front of a laughing crowd of fitness enthusiasts, Alicia prepares people for an up and coming 13 week Fitness Makeover!

Watch Alicia’s LIVE Stand Up Comedy act below:

The Weber Way to Wellness Reporter snuck back stage to catch Alicia after her act and asked a few questions….

Reporter:  What is your confidence level and ability to perform comedy roles extemporaneously, while guiding clients to fat loss and physical fitness gains?

Alicia:  My confidence is very high.  I am used to juggling what I call “double” or even “triple endeavors” and I thrive on versatility.  So I am even more energized and excited with the dual roles I play in the 13 week fitness makeover!  I have been a fitness trainer/nutritionist and enterainer for over 10 years, so I know the ropes.

Reporter:  This is your first “fitness makeover” of 2011.  How do you feel about it?

Alicia:  I am very excited!  Many people are excited and rearing to go!  I am very happy so many people care enough about their health to do this challenging event!

Reporter:  How often to do you do “fitness comedy”?

Alicia:  I perform monthly.  I have my own line of shows where I am not only the producer and director, but I am the talent also.  I combine my creativity plus suggestions from fans to come up with new material and shows on a regular basis.  I perform stand up comedy and create strength feat shows for digital download.  You can see more of my fitness comedy and characters at www.youtube./com/user/aliciaandclan

Reporter:  If someone is interested in your fitness makeovers or stand up comedy acts, how can you be reached?

Alicia:  Email is best at Awinningway@gmail.com and put “fitness” in the subject line.

Are you wanting Quick Fat Loss and Fitness Gains in Central Florida? Solution is Here!

By:  Weber Way to Wellness Reporter

No time, money, or commitment, but a willingness to achieve fat loss and health results in a hurry can leave one confused in the direction to turn.  One thing is certain a magic fat loss pill won’t do the trick!

Alicia Weber – 30+  x World Record Holder, Fitness Trainer, and Nutritionist has a solution for you if you live in Central Florida and even if you don’t keep reading for quick success tips! 

If you live in Central Florida, Alicia has a 14 day program to guide one in both nutrition and fat loss to see results!  What is even better is that the price is right!  The first session is FREE and the rest of the 2 weeks only costs that of a 1-on-1 1hr fitness session. 

This is a special program limited to 15 people and it is only for a limited time.  Contact Alicia at Awinningway@gmail.com for more info and registration.  If you would like to take off between 7 – 10 lbs, reduce your waist size a few inches, or get ready to compete – then get on board for 2 weeks to get results like other clients!

Here are some quick tips to get your engine fired up and get your fat burning furnace cranking!!

1.)     Research has shown that if you eat an apple 15 minutes before a meal you can reduce your caloric intake by 200 calories!  Eating an apple a day can do more than keep the doctor away – it will also help in fat loss!

2.)    Rich in monounsaturated fats, unsalted assorted nuts can provide heart health and they can promote fat loss.  Next time you want a snack – reach for a big bowl filled with only a handful of nuts!  Why?  The big bowl helps with portion control – it makes you feel you are eating more and you eat less and satiate.  A handful of nuts are all you need to keep your engine running and metabolism kicking!

3.)    Although nutrition is 75% of the full healthy picture, little pictures have big ears!  Exercise is a little picture that performed with the right turbulence can turn one into a well-oiled machine!  Here’s a quick workout to keep the engine rolling!

Start with 2-3 sets and build to 5 sets
10 pushups (wall, elevated, or standard pushups depending on ability level)  Immediately after do 10 squats  = 1 set

GO ALL OUT and the goal is to do 3 sets under 3 minutes and 5 sets under 5 minutes!  This is a good “pick me up” routine to do once a day to fire it up!!
