Body Blast Tips

India shares a few of her tips to help you master the exercises and get to work!

INDIA-PAULINO-BODY-BLAST-ins4

Push-ups

“I love push-ups— maybe because I had to do so many in the police academy. When performing push-ups, remember to keep your body straight and that booty down.”

Planks

“The plank is a great exercise for strengthening the core. Remember to keep your body straight, tighten up the abs and look at the floor.”

Wide-squat high jumps

“To perform wide-squat high jumps, begin in a wide-squat position with all of your weight in your heels. Then, jump as high as you can into the air. Land in that beginning squat position.”

Switch lunges

“The quicker you do the switch lunge, the more you’ll feel your quads burn. Remember to not let your knees pass your ankles and to keep your torso upright.”

Stair calf raises

“Place the balls of your feet onto a stair (or any other ledge) and let your heels hang off of the edge. Your feet should be about hip-distance apart. Lift your heels up high, count to three and bring the heels down.”

India’s “Fit It In” Tips

1. Eliminate time wasters (e.g. surfing the web, watching television): “When you pay attention to where your time is going, you will find more time in your day than you thought possible.”

2. Train before your workday begins: “You will feel so good and energized.”

3. Pack your lunch: “You can use your lunch break to get in a quick workout.”

4. Train at home: “Speaking of at-home workouts, try mine!”

5. Have a plan for the day: “When you know what you have to do, it’s much easier to get things done.”

Botched Circumcision Leads to Penis Amputation for Baby Boy

From  cord blood banking  to  baby naming ceremonies , parents of newborns have a bevy of key decisions to make when it comes to medical procedures and religious and/or cultural practices. For instance, as soon as a couple learns they're having a boy, they might find themselves grappling with the  decision to circumcise—or not . It's an individual, personal decision for every family. Thankfully, when parents opt in, most circumcisions go off without a hitch. However, a shocking story out of Egypt highlights one instance in which the routine procedure went terribly awry. A father from Cairo is speaking out after his son's  penis had to be amputated following a botched circumcision . The Jerusalem Post  reported that the father named Ashraf Helmi says he took his child to Cairo to be vaccinated and was convinced by his sister-in-law and a family friend to have his  1-month-old son Mohamed circumcised during the same doctor's visit. According to  Me...

Reduce Acid-Forming Proteins to Protect Kidney Function

Chronic kidney disease is a major public health problem affecting about one in eight Americans, increasing the risks of disease and death even among those with only mild decreases in kidney function. Low-cost, low-risk preventive strategies that anyone can do are needed to address the epidemic of kidney disease. I discuss some of these in my video Protein Source: An Acid Test for Kidney Function . Diet plays a role in kidney function decline. “Specifically, diets higher in animal protein, animal fat, and cholesterol” may be associated with protein leakage into the urine, which is a sign of kidney damage, and, generally, “diets higher in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, but lower in meat and sweets, may be protective” against kidney function decline. In comparison to the diet eaten by our ancient ancestors, not only are we eating more saturated fat, sugar, and salt, we now also eat an acid-producing diet, as opposed to a base-producing, or alkaline, diet. Ancestral human diet...
