00:01 Heart disease is still the number one killer
00:02 in our society today, 00:04 and there are lots of reasons why. 00:05 We're gonna be exploring some of those reasons next, 00:08 on Body and Spirit. 00:39 I'm Dick Nunez, 00:41 co-owner, Fit-In-15 personal training systems. 00:43 Welcome to Body and Spirit. 00:45 Today, we're gonna be talking about the number one killer 00:48 in our society and that's heart disease. 00:50 It's gone rapid 00:51 because of what people do to themselves, 00:53 by lifestyle choices, such as what they eat 00:55 and what they don't do. 00:57 Well, I can't do much about 00:58 what you let slide down your oesophagus, 00:59 but we can do something about 01:01 helping you get into a good exercise program. 01:03 So that's where we're gonna focus on today 01:04 and we will talk about some of the do's 01:06 and don'ts of eating as well. 01:08 Helping me out today, will be Mark and Diane 01:10 and I believe they know each other, 01:12 'cause they are husband and wife. 01:14 And you have an interesting 01:16 well, titbit for this, I understand. 01:17 Yeah, my wife and I are born on the same day, same year 01:21 and she's five minutes older than me. 01:23 Right. 01:25 Okay, so you married to an older woman, I guess. 01:26 Yeah, that's right, she is the older woman in my life. 01:28 Okay, and how long you've been married? 01:30 And we recently had our anniversary, 01:31 and it's been 23 years. 01:33 Wonderful. 01:34 Well, glad you could join us and we're gonna have some fun, 01:37 doing some exercise. 01:38 First thing we do is warm up, a little bit 01:41 and we're gonna just play, 01:42 we're gonna play follow the leaders 01:43 kind of like Simon says, and you just do what I do. 01:45 Okay, what we're gonna do is 01:46 just gonna step to the side and then back. 01:48 We're just gonna be warming up our legs, 01:50 'cause legs are gonna be a big part, 01:52 of circulating the blood, 01:54 and it's important, 01:56 whenever we look at heart disease, 01:57 to get those leg muscles very, very strong, 02:00 because the legs act like your second heart. 02:04 They help the Venous blood flow, 02:07 come back to the heart, 02:09 and if you do a lot of heart exercise 02:11 and then just stop abruptly, 02:14 the heart has a problem with that, 02:16 'cause it's gonna wait a minute, 02:17 where'd my helpers go? 02:18 And so there have been people, who have done a hard run, 02:22 cardiovascular workout 02:24 and have actually had cardiac event, 02:27 because of the fact they just stopped abruptly 02:29 and didn't let themself cool down. 02:31 So warming up, and cooling down 02:34 are very vital components of exercise, 02:36 this is a very simple move, but it's getting us warmed up. 02:42 Okay, that's good. 02:45 The premise of our workout 02:47 is generally based upon using the major muscles of the body 02:50 and that's the quadriceps, the gluteus maximus, 02:54 and so squats is best exercise we can do. 02:57 But we have to do them properly 02:59 because squats can be detrimental, 03:00 if you first of all, try and go down too deep 03:03 and second of all, 03:05 if you try and jerk your knees past your feet. 03:08 So we don't want to do that. 03:09 Why don't you come in little tighter to it, Diane? 03:11 Okay, and so let's get the feet apart, 03:13 just a little wider than shoulder width, 03:16 and you have got to cross your arms, 03:18 and the first movement, 03:19 you're gonna keep your chest up, 03:21 you've got to bend a little bit at the waist 03:22 and you're gonna push your hips back. 03:25 Okay, and you're gonna come back up. 03:27 Okay, you two keep going and I'm just gonna watch. 03:30 Okay, down, and up, 03:32 and down, and up, 03:35 and down, and up, down, and up. 03:41 Keep going with that pace. 03:43 Okay. 03:45 And this is number seven. I want 20 of them. 03:46 So you're gonna be my counter here. 03:48 We get to 20, we'll be done 03:51 and then we'll move on with next. 03:53 Okay, ten, eleven... 03:56 So you don't have to count out loud that's okay. 03:58 'Cause I'm gonna probably talk a little bit more as we do this. 04:00 Okay, focus on pushing the hips back a little more. 04:04 Push back and try and keep those knees over the feet. 04:07 Keep those knees over the feet the whole time. 04:10 Good. 04:11 Keep going. 04:13 And while you finish those up, 04:15 I'm gonna get the towels for us. 04:25 Is that 20? 04:26 Make it 22. 04:27 Okay, overachievers.

Okay. 07:06 Okay, good. 07:07 Okay, we still have our towels, 07:09 we're gonna bring it up to our shoulders like this, 07:12 and we're gonna be pushing up now, 07:14 and bring it back down. 07:16 Up and down. 07:17 Okay, keep going. 07:20 Okay, when you're doing this one, 07:21 again you want your chest up, stand up straight. 07:25 Wanna try and keep the xiphoid process, 07:27 which is little bony protruberance 07:29 in the bottom of your sternum up high as you can. 07:32 Okay, you want your head up, looking straight out. 07:34 Okay, big breaths of air. 07:37 Go way up high, bring it back down 07:39 and we're focusing on the shoulders. 07:41 Pull it apart. 07:44 Okay, when we get to the top, 07:46 we want to be way up here at the top. 07:48 Then back down, then way up. 07:52 Good posture. 07:53 Up, back down, pull the towel apart, 07:56 push it up, bring it down, 08:00 push it up, bring it down, push it up, 08:04 bring it down, keep going. 08:09 Looking good. 08:10 Lots of air, lots of air, big breaths. 08:13 Okay, try and stretch back, one more. 08:14 There you go.

Good. 10:40 Hold out there we're gonna do one more round of squats, okay? 10:43 Let's go for it. 10:47 Squats are a great compound exercise. 10:50 They work the Gluteus Maximus, they work the Hamstrings, 10:54 they work the Quadriceps, they work your lower back, 10:58 and they certainly work your heart and lungs. 11:00 Keep that blood circulating. 11:03 Very important. 11:06 Remember to keep your knees over your feet. 11:10 Push your hips back as your squat. 11:13 Okay, little slower, little slower, 11:15 we're getting a little fast there. 11:17 How many are we on, Diane? 11:19 Sixteen, seventeen... 11:21 Eighteen... 11:23 Almost done. 11:24 Nineteen, twenty. 11:27 Okay? Twenty. 11:29 All right. 11:30 I'm gonna hold the towels for a moment. 11:32 Now what I want you to do is 11:33 we're gonna stretch those muscles out. 11:35 So you're both gonna come over by me 11:37 and you're gonna use me as a wall. 11:38 You're gonna put one hand on me 11:40 and you're gonna stretch that, your right leg, 11:42 so go and put your left hand on my shoulder, 11:44 okay, bring your leg up, like this 11:47 and grab a hold of your ankle 11:48 and you're gonna stretch quadriceps there, okay? 11:50 You're gonna do the same thing. 11:52 Now get your left, okay? 11:56 This is called, 'the flamingo drill.' 11:59 See how good you can stand on one leg 12:01 and hold your other. 12:03 Should feel it stretch in the quadricep. 12:05 Yeah, I do. 12:09 And we hold the stretch for around 15 seconds. 12:12 We're looking good. 12:14 Breathe, as you're doing it. 12:18 All right, put it down, now switch legs, 12:20 so go ahead and face the other way. 12:22 Okay. 12:24 There you go. 12:26 Pretty good. 12:30 Exercise, it's important to do with strength stimulation, 12:34 but also work on the flexibility, 12:36 and then of course, cardiovascular exercise, 12:38 which again is so important for heart disease. 12:41 Also should mention that 12:42 if you drink at least three glasses of water, 12:45 you might actually want to drink more than 12:46 but if you don't get at least three glasses of water a day, 12:48 it's just as high as risk factor for heart disease, 12:51 as having high cholesterol. 12:53 Okay, good. 12:54 All right, now what we're gonna do is, 12:56 we're gonna step out 12:58 and you're gonna learn forward, chest up, 13:01 the back leg is bent, this leg is straight 13:04 and you lean forward into it 13:05 and you should feel it stretch in the hamstring area. 13:09 So you're feeling the stretch at the back of your leg? 13:10 Oh, yeah. 13:12 This is very important as well, especially for men, 13:15 who tend to get very inflexible in the hamstring area, 13:18 and that will cause a lot of problems 13:20 with lower back issues. 13:22 So stretching out those hamstrings, 13:23 very important. 13:27 Okay, then let's switch. 13:30 Other leg out, okay, chest up, bend over the waist. 13:38 Stretching should not be painful. 13:40 We're not trying to see how far we can go, 13:42 and still endure the pain. 13:43 We wanna get to a, a good stretch spot 13:47 where you feel the stretch, it should be comfortable, 13:49 it should actually feel quite good. 13:53 Okay, good ahead and relax. 13:57 Here's your towel again. 13:58 Thank you. 14:00 Now we're gonna do a bicep exercise. 14:04 You're gonna take your towel, palms up, 14:07 just keep pulling it apart, we're gonna curl it up, 14:09 we're gonna go down. 14:10 Curl up and down, curl it, down. 14:14 We're just treating it like a Barbell. 14:16 Curl up and then down. 14:18 Let's do it slowly. 14:20 Contract your biceps as you curl up. 14:24 And curl, and curl, 14:29 curl it up. 14:31 And curl, reach all the way down, 14:33 curl up and down 14:36 and curl and down, curl and down. 14:43 Go down under control, curl it up, curl it up. 14:48 It's amazing how something as simple as a towel 14:51 can start making the muscles tired. 14:53 Oh, yeah. Yes. 14:56 On Body and Spirit 14:57 we try and make it simple for everybody. 14:59 So when people say, 15:00 "Well, I don't have the equipment..." 15:01 Well, most people have a towel. 15:03 Most people have a chair 15:04 and that's about as complicated as we get. 15:06 MARK: Amen. 15:09 Okay we're gonna do it five more times. 15:11 There's one, two, 15:15 three, four and five. 15:19 Now, I can still curl quite a bit of weight 15:22 even at my advanced years, 15:24 but yet even still, just using the towel, 15:26 I can still feel my biceps working. 15:29 So, range of motion, 15:30 even though it's just for the towel, 15:32 it's still gonna help you out. 15:33 Okay? 15:35 Now we're going to do a tricep exercise 15:36 and we're gonna use ourself as resistance, 15:38 so we're gonna bring, 15:40 get your hands about probably six inches apart. 15:44 Okay, and we're gonna bring the right arm into the chest, 15:48 get the elbow out so it's pointing straight out, 15:50 and then we're gonna come out with it, 15:52 and we're gonna use the other arm as our resistant. 15:56 So square your body up a little more, okay. 15:58 Then, we're gonna come way out here like that 16:01 and get this elbow up little more. 16:03 Okay. 16:04 Okay, and then out. 16:06 Okay, out here and then bring it back. 16:10 Keep that over there. 16:11 Okay back out. 16:16 There you go. 16:19 Okay? Okay. 16:21 That's working. 16:22 Okay. 16:23 The nice thing about exercise is we can modify it 16:25 for physiological variability, so the way I was showing you, 16:28 wasn't working, real well, 16:30 so she found a way that works for her. 16:33 So you adjust! 16:34 And that's the great thing about exercise. 16:36 Physiological variability, you just work with it, okay? 16:39 Right. 16:41 I was trying to make fitness simple, 16:43 people always want to try and make it complicated, 16:45 I'm just trying to simplify it. 16:47 Okay let's do two more. 16:52 Okay, now we're gonna switch to the other side. 16:54 So now you're gonna take it this way, 16:56 with your left arm out, left elbow's out, 16:59 so go and just turn your body, okay, there you go, 17:03 and however you made that work, 17:04 you just go ahead and do it that way again. 17:06 Good, good, good, very good. Okay. 17:09 Good Mark, good. 17:12 The important thing is to get the contraction of that tricep, 17:18 and then you're using the other arm, 17:19 to give yourself resistance. 17:23 Very good. 17:28 And let's go five more times. 17:29 Contract, bring it back, contract, 17:32 keep that elbow pointed out, Mark. 17:34 There you go, keep it pointed out there. 17:40 Good, okay. 17:43 You may have the towels. 17:45 All right. 17:47 Now we're gonna do something for our calves. 17:50 I want you to put one foot back. 17:53 Okay let's switch over to your right, 17:55 there you go and you push up on the toe, 17:58 and then way back down and up on the toe, 18:02 back down, way up, down, 18:05 way up, down. 18:09 All right keep going, I think that's number five. 18:11 Let's go 20 again. 18:15 The calf muscles are called, 'the second heart', 18:18 and again the legs are very important 18:20 for helping the venous blood flow back, 18:23 and when you don't have good leg development, 18:26 that's when people started developing 18:27 the varicose veins and so forth, 18:29 'cause you get pulling down there. 18:31 But stimulating the legs, very important, 18:33 helps the circulation of the body. 18:35 Good strong legs will keep you going, 18:37 help you move around, get up and down, 18:39 do the things you enjoy doing. 18:40 It's one thing to get older, 18:42 but having an active life is so extremely important. 18:45 A Lot of people remember Jack LaLanne. 18:47 Well, He has since passed at about the age of 96, 18:51 but at the age of 90, he swam 26 miles underwater. 18:56 Pretty incredible. It is. 18:57 Okay, how many was that? 18:59 I don't, I can't remember. 19:00 Okay, let's go and switch. 19:02 And actually he worked out, the day before he died. 19:05 Oh. 19:07 Okay, and then ended up dying of Pneumonia. 19:18 And of course Jack was a big proponent of healthy eating 19:21 and that's the thing that people don't understand, 19:23 when we eat healthy food, 19:24 our body wants to regenerate itself. 19:27 When we eat unhealthy food, our body degenerates. 19:30 And so much of what people do 19:31 and one of things I always tell people, 19:33 is get rid of your microwave oven. 19:35 When people put food in a microwave oven, 19:38 it seizes to be food. 19:41 Food has to have the essential elements 19:44 that will keep you going, okay. 19:45 I think we're good there. 19:47 All right. 19:49 Now what I'd like you to do is, I'm gonna get the mats for you, 19:52 and we're gonna do some abdominal exercise. 19:57 So there you go, go and lay it out right here, 20:00 and there's yours Mark. 20:02 Okay. 20:03 We'll have you lay down on your back's there. 20:10 Okay, and you're gonna have your knees bent, 20:12 your feet will be on the floor 20:15 and when we do the abdominal exercise, 20:17 I want you to have your hands behind your neck, 20:19 okay, and then when you crunch up, 20:21 you're gonna try and lift your chin up towards the ceiling. 20:25 Okay, so go and come up. 20:27 Okay, once again, 20:28 I don't want you to pull on your heads, 20:31 once you have your hands behind your neck 20:33 and then when you come up, I want your chin up 20:34 towards the ceiling. 20:36 There you go, like that. 20:37 Okay. 20:38 So chin up towards the ceiling more, there. 20:40 Now back down. 20:41 Okay blow out as you come up, and then back down, 20:45 you're gonna have to come up quite some far there. 20:47 Diane. Come up. 20:48 Now back down, come up, back down. 20:53 Up, okay, go and keep going like that. 20:56 It's very important to blow out, 20:58 as you start coming up, 21:00 'cause you wanna draw your abdomen in, 21:01 and try and encourage it to do that. 21:03 When people lose their abdominal development, 21:06 their abdominal muscle or the abdominal content 21:09 tends to pooch out, 21:12 and just by having good posture, 21:14 you gain those muscles toned back up again. 21:17 You'll find yourself, 21:19 starting to get your shape back. 21:20 Okay, don't, try not to come up to far. 21:22 Okay, just right there, that's good, right there. 21:24 Up, right there, good, that's plenty. 21:28 The abdominal muscle only has a four inch range of motion, 21:30 it doesn't cross a joint. 21:32 So in order for us to get up past there, 21:34 we gonna have to use the hip flexors. 21:37 Okay, so we don't wanna do that, 21:38 so we're just gonna do the crunch here, 21:41 and crunch, and crunch up. 21:47 Okay, both of you back up. 21:49 Okay, now up to the crunch position, 21:51 okay crunch up and hold it, 21:54 back down, up and hold it, 21:58 back down, one more time. 22:01 Up, back down. 22:04 Okay turn over your hands and knees 22:07 facing out towards the front. 22:14 Okay, so you're just there on your hands and knees. 22:19 Okay, what I'd like you to do is 22:20 put your right arm out straight, 22:23 okay, now you got that part, no problem. 22:26 Okay, now were gonna complicate it. 22:27 Put your left leg out straight. 22:30 Good and just hold that. 22:34 Okay. 22:35 Try and bring this leg up just a little bit higher. 22:37 There we go, good. 22:39 Hold that position. 22:40 Seems simple enough, 22:43 but it'll definitely give you little bit of a test here, 22:45 just a moment, 22:47 this is really good for your lower back, 22:49 for your core training. 22:54 Okay, bring it back down, okay, now let's go the other way. 22:58 Left arm out, right leg out. 23:04 Very good, very good. 23:07 Hold it there. 23:09 And it's not unusual for one side 23:11 to be little more difficult than the other, 23:12 so that's not a problem. 23:15 Okay, hold it tight. 23:20 Okay, that's good, all right. 23:23 Go ahead and just sit on your mat 23:24 facing out to the front. 23:27 Okay, now have your legs on in front of you. 23:32 Okay, now what we're gonna do is I want you curve one leg in, 23:38 okay bring it up. 23:41 Okay, one leg in like that. Oh, Okay. 23:44 Now bring this other one on the outside. 23:46 Okay, now you're gonna turn this other direction here, 23:49 there you go, just like that, so we're gonna draw... 23:52 Okay. 23:54 You feel like I'm gonna turn you into a pretzel. 23:55 Pretzel.

And then reach across this way. 24:05 Okay, bring this arm over the other side there. 24:07 Okay, let's just go right there, okay, 24:11 and again the difference in physiological variability, 24:13 obviously Diane's a little more flexible, 24:16 and so Mark's gonna have to work at this one a little bit, 24:19 to try and attain the same motion 24:21 that Diane is able to achieve. 24:23 Okay, let's go and switch it around. 24:29 Okay. That's fine. 24:31 Okay, this time we're gonna bend this knee, 24:34 curl it down under... 24:35 Oh, okay. And then this side. Okay, then turn... 24:37 Bring it out across, okay, and then you come this way, 24:38 there you go. 24:39 Okay. 24:41 Okay, start by, you know, 24:43 you went to the first side okay. 24:45 Then your right knee under, bring this one over. 24:50 Okay and then, oops, you're right. 24:53 I did it wrong, okay. 25:01 Okay, then come over this side, there you go. 25:05 Bring that left arm over. 25:07 Okay. 25:13 That's one of the things that people like about 25:14 Body and Spirit, we're not using 25:16 professional models or exercise people, 25:19 we're just using common folks 25:21 and although I'm an exercise physiologist, 25:24 I try and make things simple 25:26 and try make it so people can do it 25:28 and still feel like they're accomplishing it. 25:30 Okay, very good. 25:32 Okay back on your feet. 25:37 Okay, that's great. 25:40 When it comes to heart disease, it's so important to realize 25:44 that our bodies are designed to follow basic principles 25:48 that God has set up for us. 25:50 We need to eat the foods 25:51 that he originally designed 25:53 in the very beginning, in the Garden of Eden. 25:55 He encouraged us to eat herbs of the field, 25:58 and the fruits of the tree, 26:00 and what happens when we do that, 26:02 and we do it the whole form, our body starts to regenerate, 26:06 but we take things 26:08 and we take them way out of proportion. 26:09 Unfortunately in our society today, 26:11 way to much stuff is coming into us, 26:13 genetically modified foods is going against 26:16 what the original design was all about. 26:18 People are taking them in, 26:20 and it's causing bad things to happen, 26:22 or when you take in stuff that's been microwaved 26:25 or cooked improperly, you take broccoli 26:28 which has all these wonderful nutrients in it 26:30 and you stick in a microwave oven, 26:32 and it comes out virtually, totally inactive. 26:35 You lose the nutrients. 26:37 In fact, back in Tulsa, Oklahoma, way back 26:39 when a man was given a transfusion, 26:42 they had to warm the blood up quickly, 26:44 and so they used the microwave, and once it got up to temp 26:47 and transfuse the man, he died instantly. 26:50 When they did an autopsy, 26:51 they found nothing living left in the blood. 26:54 So, if that's what it's going to do the blood, 26:56 guess what it's going to do your food. 26:58 And when you're doing things to your food, 27:00 it is now enzymatically inactive, 27:02 and now you're having to borrow enzymes from other areas 27:05 and it starts to degenerate your body. 27:07 Plus, when people are drinking in 27:09 things like whole milk. 27:11 Milk is designed for cows or baby calves, 27:14 but we're still drinking, we're the only species 27:16 that takes milk in our adult life, 27:18 and we're the only species that takes it from another species. 27:21 And then it goes through this process of being homogenized. 27:24 Remember back in the, way back when, 27:26 when I was just a young boy, 27:27 they delivered milk to the door step 27:29 and you found this, this cream at the top. 27:31 Well, now they homogenize it and these particles, 27:34 are right in the milk 27:35 and they're coming into the bloodstream 27:36 and blocking things up. 27:38 So there's a lot of things we're doing to ourself, 27:40 that aren't going along with God's original design, 27:43 he encourages to eat whole plant foods 27:46 and by doing that, awesome things happen, 27:48 I do it in my own life, 27:50 I found total regeneration, 27:51 by going through this plant-based diet, 27:53 eating whole food herbs, 27:55 and by doing that, you feel awesome. 27:56 And when you feel awesome, 27:58 not only do you feel great physically 27:59 but you great do, 28:01 you feel great spiritually as well. 28:02 Remember our scripture, that we always we use here, 28:05 Philippians 4:13 which says 28:07 "I can do all things through Christ, 28:08 who strengthens me." 28:10 God Bless. |
