Personal training, weight loss surgeries, dietary supplements, and strict diets have become a big part of almost all the Cincinnati weight loss programs. Years of education and experience have help me see through the invalid weight loss promises that are being marketed to you.  Most of these, specifically surgeries, supplements, and diets, are Band-Aids that do not treat the problem, but rather give you superficial and temporary fix. 

I have always suggested changes in the dietary habits rather than conducting strict dietary plans for effective weight loss. This is based on the fact that “altering metabolism” is better than “stopping the fuel to the engine”. Nobody intentionally gain weight, and it is your habits that are slowly adding the pounds.

Adding a slice of lemon to your water, instead of a soda is the good beginning to a day that effective manages weight. Restricting starchy food to once or twice daily with adding anti-oxidant rich food like green leafy vegetables are on the menu of my Cincinnati personal training nutrition plan. This not only suggests the short-term effects of diet on weight but also long term dietary effects on healthy living.

Increasing proteins in diet from natural resources, or adding protein supplements hastens recovery from workouts and promotes weight loss without drastically impacting an increase in body fat. Stress-free exercises like performing aerobics or yoga can improve health tremendously.

To change your habit is very challenging and will often require accountability until it becomes a part of your lifestyle. The fact that a Cincinnati personal trainer from Sensible Fitness scrutinizes the new healthy lifestyle until it becomes a habit; their role is inseparable for any weight loss program. Once the new lifestyle is simply the way you live, without giving it thought, is the time you can dump your Cincinnati personal trainer and continue on your own.

During my experience in health and fitness, I have been in many Cincinnati gyms. As I am an exercise enthusiast, I have been a member of many gyms over the years. When I was undergoing the physical therapy program in Cincinnati, and personal training others, I discovered some of the interesting facts about body building and toning individual muscles.

During my years of training to build a perfect routine to tone my body an interesting fact popped out about exercising the inner thigh muscles. The inner thigh muscles, have always posed a problem to most fitness trainers and the trainees.  Most personal trainers only perform hip adduction to train the inner thigh, and while the muscle is responsible for this, there is much more to toning this group that consists of 5 different muscles.

According to some personal trainers, toning the inner thigh muscles is as difficult as building calves. These are not easy muscles to be developed or toned by just exercises. For inner thighs, weight loss programs are usually useless. Weight control on the other hand and tracking calorie intake is a better option according to some “experts” at the Cincinnati gyms. Reducing fat intake and burning calories using aerobic exercises tries to consume the fat already stored in the body and hence, help to improve the inner thigh look. Performing strengthening exercises can promote muscle tone of the thighs, especially inner sides. However, while performing the muscle exercises, it's vital to understand that high reps on inner thigh muscles won't help the fat loss or replace fat with muscles.  Because the inner thighs also assist with hip flexion and extension, and not just adduction, it is important to have a well-rounded program, designed by a trained individual.

The mainstream Cincinnati gyms are busy places for the month of January, with everyone full steam ahead, trying to lose weight after the holidays.  By the end of the month, a noticeable decline in attendance, and by mid-late February, back to normal levels.

Each year, so many people try to change too much about the lifestyle that them currently overweight, and in doing so, burn out and fail.  

My advice....just try to change one aspect of your unhealthy lifestyle at a time.  Maybe start eating breakfast, start exercising, or quit eating late at night.  But if you try to change too much all at once, you are doomed to fail and will be worse off come 2013.  Once you achieve one small victory, move to the next.   

Of course the accountability of a personal trainer from Sensible Fitness always helps.  Wink!

Here is a quick lesson on human muscle anatomy in relation to the action that particular muscles give the body. Many personal trainers and coaches often refer to training the outer thigh when they are performing hip abduction, which is kicking or lifting your leg out to the side.

The only muscle that could be labeled an “outer thigh” muscle, would be the vastus lateralis, which is a muscle of the quadriceps group, and this does not perform hip abduction. The hip abductors, which include muscles like the gluteus medius, are located on the side of the pelvis, and have no muscle fibers that continue down the lateral side of the thigh.

Because the hip abductors merge with a connective tissue called the iliotibial tract, which does run down the lateral thigh, sometimes you may feel the tension of exercising the hip abductors on outside of your thigh, but you are not toning or shaping the outer thigh with these movements.

So the next time you see a personal trainer in a Cincinnati gym, or TV infomercial talking about training the outer thigh, you will know that they are uneducated on the topic.
