Talking with Tramaine

Many of us have jobs where we sit at a computer all day. For those 8 hours that we spend “working”, how often do we actually get up and move? I know, you have sooo much work to do and you don’t have time to leave your desk. Well, now you don’t have to. It’s time to eliminate the excuses and elevate your energy. This show will talk about exercises you can do right from your desk at work.

Our special guest, Joseph Stewart, will share his experience when he decided to accept the challenge and took his exercise to work!

A topic that has been debated from days of old...Cardio is better for women and strength training is better for men. We say it depends on what you are trying to do. The thing is, you are going to have a lot of men that will not do anything but strength train and a lot of women who will only perform cardio exercises. Although both are very important, this is like peanut butter without jelly, grits without eggs or biscuits without gravy. While it is good by itself, it works a whole lot better together. In today’s show we will be discussing this very hot and highly debatable topic, to show you that just because you may believe in one or the other, performing both will do nothing but enhance the benefits of the other.

Are you really living life to the fullest? I mean really living, or are you just existing? What’s the difference you ask? Existing can be defined as; your physical state of being present and following the routine of doing such things as sleep, eat, work, home, family and repeat. Whereas living can be defined as; pursuing a goal or dream, traveling and seeing this great and beautiful place we call earth. Today, we will be talking with Juan Carlos Santana about how to Stop Existing and Start Living, and later we will be talking about his new book.

Last week we talked about goal setting and ways you can set yourself up for success when creating your goals. It is also very important that as you make progress towards your goal and achieve those goals that you celebrate your accomplishments! Even the small milestones matter! Maybe even more so than the big ones because it is those small achievements that will motivate and propel you towards reaching that big goal you’ve set for yourself. Tune in with us and our special guest Romona Matthews as we talk about the importance of celebrating YOU!

We are finishing up the third month of 2019 and many of us made goals, or New Year Resolutions, at the top of the year. How many can say they have achieved their goal/s or are on track to do so?

However, we must go about it the correct way! In this show, we will talk about the importance of setting goals for ourselves that will set us up for success!

Do you have a close relative or a close friend who has suffered from a heart attack or coronary heart disease. Do you suffer from heart disease?
