Let the Countdown Begin till Memorial Day Weekend . . .YAHOO!
MONTH OF MAY: MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS: Mental health issues are REAL . . . whether there is a chemical imbalance creating anxiety and depression, or it is circumstantial depression due to the loss of a loved one or another tragic event, it should never go untreated. And that doesn’t always mean prescription drugs. Sometimes herbal remedies, essential oils, acupuncture, and counseling with a therapist/psychologist is a great way to deal with stress, anxiety, fear or even anger. You could be a teenager stressed about academics, social media or family . . . Or you are a new mom suffering from post-partum depression . . . or a guy who is stressed to the max — working two jobs to try to keep a roof over his family’s heads. Or you could be someone who just suffers from anxiety and depression — and mood swings where you may benefit from speaking to a professional who might suggest a prescription medicine to bring you back into balance – so you feel happy and alive. So let’s treat mental health like the true illness it really is. And if you are the one who is suffering, please don’t suffer alone because you think it is weak or coward-like to get help. Also, let’s be that listening ear to a friend or co-worker, neighbor or family member who might be calling out for help.

This FREE sessions will be offered on Saturday, May 5th with either our 6:00 a.m. or our 7:30 a.m. Bootcamp. And maybe we can talk some of our clients into making some Mexican treats! Mauricio Barajas, we are counting on you for some ideas! In case you have no idea what Cinco De Mayo is . . . It’s a day that commemorates the Mexican army’s unlikely victory over the French forces of Napoleon III on May 5, 1862, at the Battle of Puebla. And although many think Cinco De Mayo is Mexico’s Independence Day, it is really a way to remember how many times Mexico has been invaded by other countries – and their victory in 1862. As American’s we totally want to take advantage of this holiday – celebrating with fun foods and spirits! PLEASE COME FOR A FREE WORKOUT ON MAY 5TH! All fitness levels are welcome (adults&teens ages 15+).
COLLEGE SPECIAL . . . Most college students are back home by the 2nd or 3rd week of May . . . And return to school in mid-August (or earlier if they play a sport). We always offer a student special rate of $99 per month . . . but for college kids who are home for the summer, we are offering our “College Special” for $199 . . . and this special includes UNLIMITED TRAINING from May 12th through August 31st. These college students can train for up to 15 weeks (Unlimited Training) for $199. Even if you can only train a portion of that time frame, it still winds up being further discounted than our normal student rate. Head back to college in the best shape ever! So just call Michael and let him know you are interested in taking advantage of our College Special (908) 403-7605.
BOD SQUAD CHALLENGE: Let’s make a team of clients who want to join the Bod Squad! Let’s get serious and run a contest from May 1st through May 25th . . . Just in time for Memorial Day Weekend! We will be ready for summer . . . and prepping to wear shorts and bathing-suits! If you want to participate in the BOD SQUAD CHALLENGE, all you have to do is: 1) Schedule your weigh-in with one of our trainers on April 30th or May 1st — and 2) Schedule your last weigh-in on either May 23rd, 24th or 25th . . . The client who loses the highest percentage of body-weight (one male winner and one female winner) will win ONE MONTH OF UNLIMITED TRAINING at !MPACT.This is a short contest, but that means that we need to be serious for up to 25 days leading up to Memorial Day Weekend – minimal cheating!! LOL. We’d love to take a picture of our participants at the end of the challenge to represent the !MPACT Bod Squad . . . YAHOO! To make this contest more exciting and to get better results for our participants, the winner needs to lose a minimum of 4% bodyweight in order to be eligible for prize. For example, if you weigh 160 pounds, you would need to lose 6.4 pounds in a little over 3 weeks. Remember, 3500 calories equals a pound . . . so to lose 2 pounds per week (safely), you would need to decrease your daily caloric intake by 1,000 calories. This doesn’t mean starving yourself at all . . . but it would be super helpful if you exercised, drank lots of water, and ate more lean proteins and lots of fiber and vegetables/salads vs. starches like pasta, bread, rice, potatoes, cereals, etc. Have your starches earlier in the day for breakfast and lunch (with a protein source) – and then no starch after 1:30 p.m. For dinner it would be protein and veggies. Women should NOT fall below 1,000 calories . . . a good range for this kind of weight loss would be 1200-1600 calories (with exercise). And for men, a good range would be 1400-1800 calories (with exercise).
MYZONE CONTEST: This is an optional contest for anyone who is using their MyZone band at !MPACT Training. There will be ONE winner for this contest . . . for the male OR female who has the most MyZone Effort Points (MEPs) between May 1st and May 31st, they will be able to design their very own !MPACT Training T-shirt from our favorite design team, Amy Smith and Cindy Caramico (All About Me Designs). They will put our logo on the back of the shirt, and you can be creative with your words or hashtag on the front . . . #hardworkpaysoff #TEAMIMPACT #believe . . . or whatever inspirational words you want – like “Why Be Next When you Can Be First?! (inside joke with our clients) … Oh and keep it clean Impact folks – LOL!!!! Please let Michael know at the front desk if you want to be included in the contest so he can add your name to the list or call him at (908) 403-7605.

ONE-ON-ONE SPORTS SPECIFIC TRAINING: Whether you are a college athlete, high school athlete or even a middle-school athlete, training in the spring and summer for your sport of choice can pay off big time! Maybe you have a teenage or college athlete who is already going to a local gym to work out with friends – or the weight room at school . . . But are they working hard enough? Are they using proper form when weight training to reduce injury? We have helped numerous high school athletes to get stronger – and also to meet the requirements for varsity sports (i.e. varsity lacrosse requires the athlete be able to bench half their bodyweight). Our Degreed/ Certified Personal Trainers will help you outline specific goals to help improve speed, agility, strength, quickness, flexibility, and most of all confidence. During your first session we note your strengths and weaknesses so we can work to enhance your performance with each private session. We always provide Sports Nutrition info for our new clients too, since that can have a major effect on their success. We offer discount packages for one-on-one training or for partner training (so you can train with a friend or team mate and split the cost). Over the last 6 years since we opened, we have also helped numerous high school athletes prepare for Division 1, 2 and 3 college sports – which also has requirements for each athlete. If you are interested in getting onto our busy summer calendar, call us today to reserve your place. Michael: 908-403-7605.

ALL products are CLEAN with no artificial colors, flavors or sweeteners. And I don’t know about you, but that’s super important to me. Years ago, I never paid too much attention to artificial ingredients. Now I do because there are nothing but chemicals in so many of the foods and supplements on the market.

KIDS TRAINING WILL BE BACK IN THE FALL: For the month of May and the summer months, there will no longer be KIDS Training on Saturdays at 10:00 a.m. Our KIDS Training program is such a great success, and we LOVE working with children ages 7-12. However, once the nice weather comes along and spring & summer sports have started, getting kids into !MPACT on a Saturday morning is tough for parents. So no worries, we will start it up again in the fall . . . Stay tuned to our Newsletters for the start date. In the meantime, think about signing your kids up for FIT & FUN Camp the week of July 9th. There are only a few spots left! Call Michael at 908-403-7605.
FITNESS FORTITUDE:
Athlete’s Corner: Do you need more calories to gain weight for a specific sport? Whether you are a pro athlete or a teenager looking to gain some weight for a particular sport, you can do it by adding “quality calories” to your daily diet. Did you know that you need to intake at least 5-6 meals per day (with a total of 3,000-6,000 calories per day – depending on your weight gain goals)? This is not an easy task – although eating that many calories sure sounds fun. The problem is that you have to eat the right balance of proteins and carbs – with just the right amount of healthy fats too. You can’t simply eat a pile of potatoes or fast food to help you reach your weight-gain goals. If you eat nothing but carbs, fats and fun foods, you won’t be very successful at gaining lean muscle mass. Instead, you will gain nothing but a spare tire (body fat) around your mid-section – and we all know that will have a negative effect on your speed and agility skills. I’ve worked with several athletes presently playing in the NFL or MLB, and they had great success following my advice. A simple way to increase your daily calories is by adding an 8 oz. glass of low-fat or skim milk to each of your meals. That will give you balanced calories with proteins and carbs – and it will add about 110-120 calories to EACH meal. Another great way to increase quality calories is to include at least two protein drinks per day. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the IsaLean Pro Shakes from Isagenix to use as snacks when trying to increase quality calories (see where to purchase below). While some people would use these shakes as meal replacements when trying to decrease body fat to lose weight, we would include them as snacks to help our athletes GAIN muscle/weight. If you want to make your own shake with different ingredients, here is a great recipe using “quality calories” added to the IsaPro Whey Protein powder (see where to purchase below). Mix all these ingredients in a blender:
1½ cups of Skim Plus Milk (this brand has added protein and calcium) = 165 calories
Chopped ice (optional)
1 scoop of IsaPro Whey Protein Powder (choc. or vanilla) = 100 calories
8 oz. of low-fat Plain Greek Yogurt = about 80 calories
1/3 cup dry oatmeal = 150 calories
Banana = about 110 calories
1 tablespoon of natural peanut butter = 100 calories
FIT & FUN CAMP (for children ages 7-13): They will have a blast participating in a fun fitness circuit, having relay races, playing kickball, dodgeball and more! Kids are broken up into age appropriate groups for training. THIS YEAR CAMP WILL BE THE WEEK OF JULY 9TH — Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 noon. Space is limited and every year we sell out fast. So reserve your place now! The only way to reserve your place is to fill out the 2018 registration form and waiver, along with providing payment. Camp is only $145 per child/per week. We also offer a $10 discount for siblings. CLICK HERE for the REGISTRATION FORM – AND CLICK HERE for the WAIVER FORM. Questions? Call Michael at 908-428-7978
SPEED, AGILITY, STRENGTH & CONDITIONING – ELITE ATHLETE GROUP TRAINING: Let us help your athlete get faster, stronger and learn proper running form, along with learning about Sports Nutrition so they fuel their bodies for optimal performance. They will build core strength, increase speed & quickness, and condition their bodies to improve overall performance. This program is a combination of weights and speed/endurance training, so it’s perfect for any athlete. Most of all, our trainers will help build CONFIDENCE in your kids. This is a discounted Unlimited Training Program just for athletes. We also offer one-on-one sessions or partner sessions for those who want to work with a trainer on a more specific goal. E-mail us if you want more info: [email protected]
MAY GROUP TRAINING SCHEDULE (CLICK HERE): Why is our Group Training different than a big box gym where you can take classes or work out on your own? You are ALWAYS led by a Certified or Degreed Personal Trainer – not just a fitness coach who was certified by the gym where they work. Great trainers are hard to find . . . but we take our time and we choose high-level trainers who are ready to motivate you and guide you, every single session! We are a training facility that offers personal training, multi-level bootcamps, elite athlete training, weight-training sessions, weight-loss programs, nutrition and more! Please check out our schedule as we offer programs for adults, teens and kids. Questions? Give us a call: (908) 428-7978! #investinyou

I love her story in her words too – because you never know who might relate to what she is saying . . . and who might feel hopeless – like they feel like they’ve tried everything. Well here is her story: “No matter how far you have to go, it all starts with saying yes to yourself. You are worthy of feeling your best. You CAN get there. It just takes more forward steps than backwards ones. I’ve been on this journey for 14.5 months now. I maintained all summer long (last summer) and only recently got back into being strict enough to start losing again. Maintaining was such a huge victory for me, now I know when I get to goal I can stay there. I’m no longer in a rush to get to the finish line, because there is no finish line for me, it is simply the way I live now. Today I finished my 4th Isabody Challenge and I will immediately jump into my 5th one. My goal is to be the best me I can be. Where will your dreams take you?” For more info about this program, call me: Hillarie 908-403-7620.

RWJ SPORTS PHYSICAL THERAPY: This is a great place to go for any type of physical rehab – and boy, are did a great job on my lower-back pain! They handle everything from ligament sprains to arthritic pain.

Every now and again, it just tightens up and I am in a lot of pain. I heavily rely on the physical therapists at Sports Physical Therapy to get me mobile and pain free again!
