It is never too late to start strength training. Weight training for women older than 40 is especially important. As women age, fat distribution changes, hormones fluctuate with menopause and metabolism slows down. Gaining fat presents more health risks that include increased risk for heart disease, breast cancer, diabetes, metabolic syndrome and high blood pressure. Strength training develops muscle, which helps your body burn more fat even at rest. Added muscle increases the amount of calories your body burns in a day, which helps ward off weight gain. As a beginner remember to take things slow and progress gradually to prevent injury and give your body time to adapt. For general health benefits, women should weightlift at least two times a week for at least 50 minutes. Ask an employee of your health club for advice on learning the proper techniques for different weight lifting exercises. Do 4/5 sets of each strength exercise. Lift a weight that allows you to perform 10 to 12 repetitions without losing form. However, the weight should be high enough that by the last repetition, your muscles are tired. When you reach a point in an exercise when the weight is not challenging enough, increase the weight or the number of repetitions to continually challenge your muscles. Warnings: Consult a doctor before beginning any exercise program. Trainer: Jenny Gaidoukevitch www.jennysport.com gym: FlexiFitness Leiderdorp 04.2011

[Please turn on your speakers to listen to the video] Founded in 2001, Protica, Inc. (www.protica.com) is a research-based nutraceutical firm headquartered in Whitehall, Pennsylvania. Protica is the first company to develop and market a compact liquid protein product in a ready-to-drink format. Their first product, trademarked ProfectR, was initially produced in a 1000 square foot facility in Conshohocken, PA. In 2006, Protica moved into a larger, 23000 square foot property, which allowed the company to expand its manufacturing to include private labeled products for other companies. In 2008, Protica purchased a 13 acre dairy plant campus with 250000 square feet of production and warehousing in Whitehall, PA. The former dairy plant is home to Protica's manufacturing, logistics, research and development activities, where more than 100 different products are produced. Some of Protica's brands are: ProfectR ready-to-drink liquid protein beverage; ProasisR all-natural liquid protein beverage; PediagroR ready-to-drink children's meal replacement drink; IsoMetricR ready-to-drink adult meal replacement drink; FruiTasiaT ready-to-drink fruit and vegetable drink; ProteinGemT protein-based gelatin treat; ProteinTwistT protein candy.

Spot Reducing
Achieving a toned and chiseled look is pretty much everyone’s dream. Who doesn’t want to have a perfect beach body all year round? Getting this look requires a low body fat percentage which is too often a misunderstood process. Hours spent doing sit ups, using topical creams and taking pills are all great examples of how not to get toned.
