Dieting, Exercise and Survival During and After Hurricane Sandy

Hurricane Sandy has caused historical damages in New York City and New Jersey areas. Morris County NJ personal trainer Carey Yang shares his diet and exercise tips and how he survives 7 days (and still counting) without electricity and heat.

Hurricane Sandy made a historical impact on the East Coast this week. New York City and New Jersey are the hardest hit areas with more than $50 billion damages.

Millions of people are left in the dark and cold without electricity and heat. Gasoline to run cars and power generators has become such a demand and in big shortage. The famous 70-mile long Jersey Shore was washed off by surging storm and high tide. Sand has pushed inland a mile from the coastline damaging bridges and washing away houses.

Lower Manhattan, Staten Island and Long Island regions of New York are also hit hard with severe flooding and damages. New York City Marathon has to be cancelled for the first time after frustrated public outcry over long and delayed rescue effort.

"Although Hurricane Sandy warning started a few days earlier and many people have been preparing for it, the extent and size is simply beyond 100 years of historical storm," says Carey Yang, a certified personal trainer and fitness expert  in Morris County, New Jersey.

Yang is the owner and master personal trainer at Beyond Fitness Solutions, LLC -- a leading in-home personal training and weight-loss management company serving and helping clients in Morris County, Sussex County, Passaic County, Essex County and Somerset County areas in New Jersey. 

Yang says, I still have no electricity or heat at home 7 days after Sandy and don't know the power will be back. Several downed trees need to saw off. Downed wires need repair. The coordination between tree service companies, township public workers and utility workers seems to be a challenge.

"I don't have power generator. Luckily I have a gas grill with a burner and a full tank of propane to warm up water for tea and coffee, cook soup and simple meals," Yang says. "Still, it's temporary, not meant to last for more than two weeks."

Yang provides a list of foods and diet for emergency:

● Preserved meats, fish, fruits, vegetables, beans, and soups. They are often full of additives and salts. On the other hand, canned food is easy to get and store for at least two years. 
● Protein/fruit/granola bars. Look for the ones without any HFCS or unpronounceable ingredients.
● Dry cereal or granola.
● Dried fruits, grains and nuts. If you can, choose organic and buy in bulk to save money.
● Crackers: Buy high-quality, high-fiber ones. 
● Juice, plus fluids with electrolytes. 
● Water: This is key. “Water is a not-optional item. If you don’t have it, you die.

Lastly, here’s a list of non-food stuff to have on hand:
● Soap, or alcohol-based (60-95%) hand wash.
● Any prescription meds your family needs, plus a basic first-aid kit that includes a thermometer, fever meds such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen, and anti-diarrheal meds.
● Flashlights: If your flashlights use rechargeable batteries, good for you, but if the power goes out you wont be able to plug in the recharger. Consider a hand-crank flashlight or solar-powered ones and/or emergency candles.
● Portable radio. Here’s one that operates on solar, hand-crank or battery power and has a built-in cell phone charger and flashlight.
● Manual can opener.
● Garbage bags: Use them for trash, make-shift sleeping bags.
● Tissues, toilet paper, diapers (if water is in short supply, you won’t be washing cloth diapers, so go for disposable eco diapers) and feminine hygiene supplies.

The 8th and Missing Habit of Highly Fit and Healthy People

If you missed my earlier articles on The Top 3 Habits of Highly Fit and Healthy People and The 4 Forgotten Habits of Highly Fit and Healthy People, you can read them in the following links.

http://www.beyondfitnesssolutions.com/beyondfitness/2011/09/weight-loss/top-3-habits-of-highly-fit-and-healthy-people/

http://www.beyondfitnesssolutions.com/beyondfitness/2011/10/weight-loss/the-4-forgotten-habits-of-highly-fit-and-healthy-people/

I received great comments and feedback from my readers and clients on all the 7 habits of highly fit and healthy people.

However, deep in my mind, I feel something is still missing. Some of my clients say the same thing. I listed eating, exercise, making time, setting goal, water intake, no-dieting mindset and tracking program as the top 7 healthy habits — look pretty complete.

So, what else is missing?

After some thoughts and soul searching, I discover that these healthy habits are more about external changes and less about habitual programming and mindset changes for sustaining long term success. They’re more about an individual’s own behavioral changes, than influence from the environment.

Here it is that I name the 8th Missing Habit of Highly Fit and Healthy People:

#8 Habit: Sense of Involvement and Community

If you have top 7 habits and become too obsessed about them, you become a gym rat. You turn into a healthy freak. You isolate yourself from the outside world. You care only about yourself.

You may have a physically fit and healthy body but are lack of emotional health and maturity.

Highly fit and healthy people help and share with other people their success by promoting healthy and active lifestyle. They’re involved in their community in many different ways.

One of them is to participate in community services or charity fundraising events that benefit the disadvantages or for good causes. They have healthy hearts, and more than that, they  have BIG hearts that serve and help the community.

If you resonate with me, now go out to run  5K charity races or serve the spaghetti meals.

Getting Ripped Muscular Chest with Cable Fly Exercise by Morris County NJ #1 In Home Personal Trainer

Carey Yang, Certified Personal Trainer & Dream Body Expert
 "Cable Chest Fly Exercise"

http://www.BeyondFitnessSolutions.com

Morris County NJ personal trainer, fitness bootcamp coach and your dream body workout expert Carey Yang demonstrates how to do cable chest fly exercise the right way for chiseled and defined pectoral muscles.

First, check your ego at the door. Cable cross-over or fly exercise is a single-joint isolation exercise. You don't use that kind heavy weight for chest "pressing" or "pushing" exercise.

Secondly, keep your arms straight and elbows slight bent. Keep at that angle throughout the range of motion with your shoulder joints as the anchoring points. Trace the movement as if you are "hugging" someone - with your arms open and coming around. It's different from where you are "pushing" someone as in the chest press exercise.

Third, focus on contracting or squeezing your chest muscles together when your arms come around together toward the centerline. You can even hold for a second or two for extra muscle contraction. Then return cable smoothly with control while holding the tension.

Morristown NJ Personal Trainers Come to You for In-Home Personal Training

The leading Morris County in-home personal training company Beyond Fitness Solutions, LLC is expanding its fitness training and nutriton coaching business to serve clients in Morristown, NJ area.

Based in Denville, the "hub" of Morris County, Beyond Fitness Solutions LLC has been serving clients in nearby towns as far as 30 miles away.

"There are a lot of benefits of having a in-home personal trainer coming to client's house for training. Motivation and travel time are two of the biggest reasons," says Carey Yang, owner and master trainer at Beyond Fitness Solutions, LLC.

Most people would not travel for more than 3 to 5 miles from their homes or work places to work out in a gym or fitness center. Sometimes, they just don't like to go to gym or fitness center near them if they have the choice.

In-home personal trainers usually travel up to 10 miles around their home bases. Some will charge travel fees if it's outside of their areas. Most trainers will try to stay as close to their home bases as travel time is really unbillable hours that would kill their profit margins.

"My business has been growing and expanding in the last few years that I have to turn away clients because my schedule is booked full or they're too far away to make it less cost-effective for them and for me to travel," Yang says. "With affiliated independent trainers on our team, Beyond Fitness Solultions LLC is able to expand its business and territory to serve more clients and help more people."

Here are a list of towns in Morris County that Beyond Fitness Solutions, LLC and its trainers are able to travel to, for private in-home fitness training and boot camp group classes.

Denville, NJ

Morris County Personal Trainer Carey Yang Enters 5K Race to Raise Fund for Hurricane Relief

Denville, Morris County NJ personal trainer Carey Yang has entered a 5K race to help raise fund to benefit local merchants and residents in Denville, New Jersey affected by Hurricane Irene in late August.

Yang is the owner and master personal trainer at Beyond Fitness Solutions, LLC -- a leading in-home personal training and weight-loss management company serving and helping clients in Morris County, Sussex County, Passaic County, Essex County and Somerset County areas in New Jersey. He is also an.AFAA-certified Biggest Loser® Pro Fitness Trainer.

Hurricane Irene blasted New Jersey in late August causing a lot of damages, power outage, and flooding. The downtown Denville area was flooded for days. Hundreds of homes and local stores were flooded, suffering from property damages. While most residents and businesses have been slowly recovering from the damages, some homes became inhabitable. Some businesses are still closed or in repair.

A local Denville resident for almost 12 years, Yang says, I'm lucky that my house is on the higher ground and only suffered from down tree branches and limbs and power outage. "The day after Hurricane Irene passed, I went close to downtown Denville area and visited my friends living near there. It was a horrible scene to watch. I simply can't imagine how the Mother Nature is so powerful causing such a tremendous damage," Yang adds.

Fundraising events have been underway for over a month. The next event is "Denville Up & Running" organized by a group of local residents and businesses to be held on Sunday, October 16, 2011. The 5K Run/Walk Race starts at 11 am. The whole fund raising event starts from 9 am to 6 pm including live music, entertainment, Denville merchant food, street festival, Denville Farmer's Market, 50/50 raffle and much more. All net proceeds go to benefit the Denville PAL Hurricane Relief Fund - a not-for-profit organization.

"I want to rally more friends, neighbors, business associates and my clients to join me and my family for supporting this fun and worthwhile event." Yang says.

Dear Governor Christie, Your Weight is a Weighty Issue. I Want to Help You!

An open letter to New Jersey Governor Mr. Chris Christie from Top Morris County, New Jesrey Personal Trainer Carey Yang


Dear Mr. Governor Christie,


I know it’s not feeling good to be criticized in public about your weight. It’s even worse to be publicized and ridiculed in the political arena and media all over the places.


Truth to be told, you know you have to lose weight, improve your health , and get in better shape for yourself, for your family and kids, for New Jersey residents and voters, and possibly for all U.S. people if you decide to run for U.S. President some day.


I don’t need to repeat the scientific study, research data or statistics to convince you. You know you have to do it.


We know you’ve been trying fo years. Your struggling with weight control. exercise and diet is not uncommon. Many many Americans share similar challenges in combating overweight, obesity and a host of related health issues. As a result, our nation’s healthcare cost has risen rapidly.


Great leaders set a good and strong example for demonstrating their integrity and characters. They walk the talk, not just talk to talk. It would be an inspiration to all Americans if you step up the plate, keep your promise, show your discpline and results.


People have compared you and your weight with President Obama. He has finally kicked his smoking habit.


It may not the right time for you to run for U.S. President. However, it’s TIME for you to run for your own health. In fact, there is no right time, good time or bad time to lose weight, exercise and eat healthy. The only thing you have to do is to decide. Make your decision. Commit to your decision. Set up a strategic game plan. Execute the plan and follow through.


You may have personal trainer before and may still have one. Today, I’d like to make you an unsolicted, nonpartisan, and sincere offer.


Please allow me to be your personal trainer and fitness coach, to help you lose weight, get in good shape!

The decsison is yours. Let’s talk!
