Alene’s Eats & Exercises

Let’s talk Cardio!

Incorporating cardio in your BodyBoss routine is important for maintaining a healthy heart, decreasing risk of heart disease, and can greatly aid in fat loss! LISS and HIIT are two common types of cardio.

LISS= Low Intensity Steady State

LISS can consist of any type of movement- walking, cycling, elliptical, etc. at a steady state for a period of time.  It’ll feel like exercise, but nothing too intense! You should reach 50-60% of your max heart rate.

Pros:  No recovery time needed, low risk of injury, aids in weight loss, often enjoyable

Cons: Longer workouts, can lead to plateaus, body will adapt (will need to do more for same results over time), can be boring

HIIT= High Intensity Interval Training

HIIT consists of bodyweight movements, sprints, resistance exercises, etc.  It’s any period of exercise that you do at a high intensity (70-90% max heart rate) followed by a short rest period. HIIT sessions usually only last around 20 minutes and since your body works hard during it, you continue to burn calories post workout through Excess Post Oxygen Consumption (EPOC).

Pros: Short workouts, aids in weight loss, aids in athletic endurance, exciting

Cons: Need recovery time, not enjoyable for everyone, more risk of injury

Here’s a super quick 11.5 minute workout you can do Anywhere!

HIIT WORKOUT

- Bodyweight Burpees

- Squats

- High Knee Lunges

- 30 Seconds of each exercise

- 5 Rounds

- 1 minute break after each round

MoTW: Overhead Press

The overhead press has long been a staple in many workout gurus’ routines and there’s a good reason why!  This compound movement is one of the most efficient strength and muscle building exercise for the shoulders, upper back, upper chest, triceps, and core.  You may be hard pressed to find another exercise that hits all three heads of the shoulder (anterior, medial, and posterior deltoids) relatively evenly like the overhead press does.  

Added Benefits:

- Full body exercise

- Added ease to other movements (ex. Raising the bar overhead for back squats)

- Better shoulder health and protection from injuries

- Can be done alone or added into other compound exercises- like a thruster (squat to overhead press)

- Variety: Can use the BodyBoss bar or the handles to press, pronated grip (palms out) or neutral grip (palms facing each other- easier on the shoulder muscles) to figure out what works best for your body!

Hey Bosses,

I am Vedant Chopra, a Marketing Intern and I’m closing in on six months being a part of the team, soon. I have learned so much being in a startup environment, sometimes being as lost as I was and then brushing it off and getting back on track right after. A lot of what helped me through doing school and work side by side was my time on the BodyBoss Portable Gym. It really did let me channelize that rush productively and instantly because it’s always right THERE, haha. If you should know one thing about me, it is that I have sworn to never be a sellout, that is using or doing something I don’t believe in. So as an ego boost I had to use the BodyBoss system to justify accepting paychecks from them, to myself. And I more than just justify it - I love it. Imagine working for something you believe in so much, you treat it as your own - growing with a business people believe in too.

And another thing about me, I will be passionate about everything I truly believe and trust in and get everyone to see it the way I do. I guess that’s why I love working with this passionate set of people who want to live right more than anything and are driven by the innate drive of incorporating this ‘living right’ to as many people as possible - by doing one simple thing, providing easy access to fitness for Anyone, Anywhere and At Any Level.

Pretty driven people, eh? Enough said, let’s come down to the logistics updates of your orders, you must have received emails about your orders the last week - we sent out 590 emails out to our US/Canada backorders which pretty much covers most of every order placed in the area. If you still did not receive updates on your orders, please feel free to contact the customer support in case you need more information regarding your order or would just like to check in with us or even post your workouts to be featured with the whole community and encourage others like you to get started and take the first step towards fitness.

Additionally, keep sharing the love with us. That’s the real driver, if you ask me (Don’t tell my Boss - a little money helps too, haha). We love getting feedback and reviews from our customers, just reminds us who we’re working hard for and how it’s changing people’s lives. Here is our featured customer review for this week:

See you guys working out on the BodyBoss and remember to share your workouts with us - we get a good thrill from it.

Alene’s Eats & Exercises

Eating Fat Won’t Make You Fat!!

Low fat diets made their popular debut in the late 1970s.  It was thought this diet led to weight loss and health benefits- despite there being little to no scientific evidence. Low fat diets became the next big trend.

Today, there have been countless studies concluding that low fat diets do not aid in weight loss or give you health benefits! In fact, these studies show diets consisting higher fat and lower carbs aid in weight loss and a decreased risk of heart diseases!

It is essential to eat some fat for - your body’s energy stores, absorption of fat soluble vitamins, supply of fatty acids like omega 3 (helping prevent heart disease), making cholesterol (needed for hormones), and as you already know it’s what makes food taste great!

Being the most caloric macronutrient, make sure to eat the appropriate serving of foods high in fats. Healthy fats are found in foods like salmon, avocado, egg yolks, and nuts- they’ll keep you full and feeling good!

From our friend Michael Carter from Disability Don’t Mean Can’t, who is determined to spread fitness to any person, any strength level, anywhere!

Hey Bosses,

How’s that summer physique coming along? All of us here at BodyBoss have had another crazy week, nothing we couldn’t handle and power through - Indiegogo featured us on top of another newsletter because of our trusted product and delivery.

Look Below! One of the many containers in transit and at the port - they just keep rolling in.

(Over 11,000 New Gyms ordered to keep up with the demand, Woot!)

We will send out Tracking Information this week after all the labels are prepared for shipment, which is still currently under process of clearing customs in the US. We were also notified by the US Customs that because this is one of our biggest containers yet, it will take an additional five days for the customs to clear! We expected to start shipping all the remaining US back orders this week, but are now optimistic that this will begin Monday, July 16.

Our international backers, Thank You for being so patient - we see more and more of you get your BodyBoss gyms everyday - keep sharing those happy pictures with us! Also, there are more containers with your gyms being delivered as we speak and thanks to our low cost shipping partners, tracking is coming your way soon as well.

If we further experience unexpected delays, we’ll be sure to keep you in the loop via the comment board and here on our project updates.

Meanwhile, here are some lifestyle pointers to warm up your routine to get the best results overall from our Boss Trainer, Alene.

We love getting feedback on how our product and team is adding value into your life! Our clients are our top priority, so reviews with what you are pleased with and what we can do better are always appreciated. Our featured amazon reviewer this week is Elly Jackson!! We are so happy you’re loving ClubBodyBoss and the team!

Move of the Week: Goodmorning

A goodmorning is a compound movement that targets the posterior chain- including your hamstrings, glutes, lower back, and core! This exercise strengthens the back and stabilizer muscles that are often hard to reach. Strengthening these can not only reduce back pain, but reduce the chance of future back injury!

Try it yourself:

1.) Adjust bar comfortably on to back and tighten core

2.) Keeping a slight bend in the knees, push glutes back and hinge at the hips (Upper legs are moving back, torso and upper body is moving forward)

3.) Once your torso is about 15 degrees above parallel to the ground, push through glutes and hamstrings to return to starting position

4.) IMPORTANT: Remember to keep your core very tight, spine neutral, and neck aligned with your spine throughout the entire movement!

Add this to your workout routine and keep being bosses!!

Should we develop this live interactive workout program experience on Club BodyBoss?
over 6 years ago – Fri, Jun 29, 2018 at 05:17:14 PM

Bosses,

This week on Club BodyBoss Live our instructors taught us these exercises and led us through some awesome workouts... make sure you sign up as a plus boss so that we can send you the replays of the workouts directly to your email. 

HAVE YOU ATTENDED A LIVE BROADCAST WORKOUT YET? 

Before we dive into our new feature ideas, we hope to see you tomorrow at 12:30p EST on www.clubbodyboss.com to meet Mary our brand new BodyBoss instructor. She's awesome! 

Also, community members who join the site will get emailed the replay of the live workout of Mary so go over and create your profile. 

Even though she is offering workout programs every Saturday for now these are free currently for community plus members. We wanted to get you a trainer at a bargain which we believe we did. Our goal is to help hold you accountable and help make your life more convenient, by bringing the gym to you. Our health is one of the most important things in life! And strength training is essential on our health journey. Lets make sure to get our workout in this weekend to have a great start to our Saturday. 

WHAT'S IN DEVELOPMENT? 

We are creating your user dashboard now that will be able to track your workouts, delivery you programs, videos added from the week, ability to set your schedule for the week and more. We continue to add workouts every week. In an effort to add a community feel and a better trainer to user experience we wanted to add group interactive workout programs. What do you think?

Here is a design of it: 

comment below or message Ross on ClubBodyBoss for various ideas to add to Club BodyBoss to make the Virtual Gym better.
