Today I’ve got a guest post to share from my new friend David Haas. He’s been researching and writing about how beneficial cancer support networks can be along with best practices for staying physically active during treatments and remission.

David asked if he could share an article as a guest post and I was happy to oblige him. Cancer is something that affects just about every family and most of us have been impacted in some way by the disease.

This subject is near and dear to my heart and anything that could help individuals currently dealing with cancer or their families, I want to be a part of it. I commend David for his efforts with working to educate and encourage others about this disease.

The following article is about the benefits of fitness and eating healthy during and after a diagnosis with any kind of cancer. Each cancer is different and has its unique limitations but like David says, “If one can keep a healthy body, they can have a better chance of overcoming this awful disease.”

He’s encouraged me to write more on the subject of cancer which I’ll be doing in the weeks to come. In the meantime, here’s his article as a guest post…

Today I’ve got a guest post for you from my good friend and fellow fitness professional, Hut Allred of New Wave Fitness in Dallas. He’s got some good tips for you on the subject of habits. Here we go…

The truth about the creation of habits is that they start out as ideas—then you take action upon them. And if you take action upon them every day for 21 days, the habit is mastered. Virtue or vice—the habit “has you”—you don’t have it.

This is often more true of bad habits than good, unfortunately.

Maybe you do it or know people that do – spend hours in the gym doing cardio and weight lifting. It’s not a terrible thing. It is very possible that they have had great results and don’t mind the time commitment.

However, there are lots of other people that want to work out, feel great and see results but don’t have the same dedication to their routine.

Enter circuit training. Yes, some women’s gyms are based on this and even some super gyms have a circuit section and you might have dismissed it as being a sub par workout but take a minute and hear me out.

Circuit training is simply creating a rotation for your exercises so that you minimize rest time. Each trainer has their own spin on it but I like to alternate strength and cardio because it really makes for a powerful workout.
