"Never Be Fat Again" Author Raymond Francis Gives His Weight Loss Tips. And With Jump Snap Even The Fat Guy Can Jump Rope!!!
On tonight's show, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy get the skinny about all the weight loss and health benefits of jumping rope from Jump Snap inventor and Brad LaTour. If you want all the benefits of jumping rope but are too uncoordinated to do it properly (like the Fat Guy) you have to check this product out. Jump Snap is a ropeless jump rope. It has handles with a short rope and ball attached. You hold the handles and go through the motions of jumping rope. But there is no actual rope the Jump Snap has a speaker that makes the sound of the rope swinging and it keeps track of calories burned, how many repetitions you done and it even talks to you. How cool is that? Please go to Brad's website www.jumpsnap.com and check it out. How bad can it be Hilary Swank uses it and she's pretty hot, right?
We also had on Raymond Francis author of "Never Be Sick Again" and his brand new book "Never Be Fat Again". Raymond had a spirited discussion about the steps needed to lose weight and keep it off permanently. He was very passionate and almost convinced the Fat Guy that he should lay off processed food. Dr Fitness loved his message and strongly suggested checking out his books. Raymond also does a lot of work trying to help children and the alarming childhood obesity and health crisis in this country. Please go to Raymond's website www.beyondhealth.com for great information including a couple of real powerful free reports called "The Roadmap to Ultimate Health" and "The Roadmap to Supplements" And for more information about his non-profit group that helps children learn the basics of good health please go to www.healtheamerica.org
The Doctor had some fitness tips in his latest installment of ...Dr Fitness' "Things You Can Do Today" To Get Ready For Your First Spinning Class Tomorrow. Here are a few of Dr. Fitness' secrets about the things you should do to see if spinning is for you. Number 1, check out the spinning class before you start - make sure you like the instructor - in group exercise classes the instructor is critical. Number 2, check out the equipment - make sure your gym has good solid equipment - you don't want the bike to be falling apart mid-ride. And Number 3, when you get on the bike make sure you have the seat at the right height - a good spin instructor will come over to make sure you are on right. He had a few more tips but since I've never been anywhere near a spinning class I kind of lost interest but you'll have to listen to get them.Kathie Larkin was in the house and she was fired up about landing a big part in a movie that is being filmed here in Atlanta. She told us all about it. You know Kathie as the host of Real Savvy Moms. Real Savvy Moms is a great show for moms that is available on most Public Broadcasting Stations around the US and online. Remember Kathie is one of the top feet and legs model's out there... she is so hot she got to be a body double for Alyssa Milano a few weeks ago. Be sure to check out Kathie's website www.getkathie.com. Also check out her hosting skills on www.RealSavvyMoms.com. Remember we are now on Michigan radio station WKNW this day. They asked us to create a Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy "Wellness Minute." So now a new Wellness Minute runs on that station each day. Each Wellness Minute features the doctor and I going over 5 of his best tips on a given wellness subject like: losing weight, getting in shape, living a healthy lifestyle, etc. We're working on ways to make those tips available to all our listeners. If you have a favorite radio station that you think would benefit from our Wellness Minutes send them an email telling them about it and who knows maybe you can hear us everyday too. Also once again, I need you to please do me a favor. My nine year kid Max made his radio debut in his new show "Kid Power Radio." This is a great show for your kids. It is kind of like a kids version of David Spade's "Showbiz Show" on Comedy Central or Entertainment Tonight. Max recaps the week in entertainment and gives his take and review of what he liked and didn't like on TV, at the movies, video games, in books and in music and even restaurant reviews. Please go to his site and download the show for your kid. And if your kid sends Max an email he'll read it on the air next week. The show can be found at www.kidpowerradio.com and you can email Max at RadioStarMax at Yahoo.com. Your encouragement is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!
