52 Weeks of Healthy Eating- Week 13- It is Not as Easy as Calorie in/Calorie Out

Last updated on: March 28, 2021 at 10:44 pm By Rob Giannamore

I am guilty. I have said this too often to clients knowing full well that it is much more complicated than this. In the American Council of Exercise(ACE)’s March 2021 issue of Certified, Daniel Green visits this conventional wisdom and shows how much more complicated weight loss is. This will be a critique of Green’s article. For many years, many, myself included have engaged in reductionist logic regarding weight loss. As I have gotten older and more educated, I have...

Last updated on: March 21, 2021 at 8:41 pm By Rob Giannamore

This week, I would like to move away from diet for a moment and celebrate that it was warm this week, well, warmer. Soon however, it will be really warm and we will all be shedding our sweaters and sweatpants for t shirts and tank tops. It’s time to get our guns out. In order to get our guns out though, we may have to do some work getting them ready. This week, I am going to give you 5... Read more

52 Weeks of Healthy Eating: What Happens to Your Body When You Exercise

Last updated on: March 15, 2021 at 11:03 am By Rob Giannamore

This week, I want to look at two overlooked aspects of “exercise”. I want to talk about Excess Post Exercise Oxygen Consumption (EPOC) and Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT). EPOC- Your body is not done after you get done exercising. In the same manner that your engine in your car is not cold immediately after switching it off, your body goes through a similar process of cooling down. EPOC is the amount of oxygen required to restore your body to its... Read more

52 Weeks of Healthy Eating: No Such Thing as an Empty Calorie

Last updated on: March 8, 2021 at 9:52 pm By Rob Giannamore

It was a busy weekend. I had my first event for 2021, a 45 mile gravel race over in Ohio’s Amish country. It was a beautiful, sunny day across windswept farm land, buggys, horse drawn farm machinery and Amish children smiling and waving. Oh and it was cold, mid 20’s with a max wind gust of 15 mph making the real feel in the teens. I knocked out the ride in 3:45, and I am not sure how people did... Read more

52 Weeks of Healthy Eating – Words from the Heart

Last updated on: March 1, 2021 at 2:03 pm By Rob Giannamore

It is February and in honor of Valentines Day, I want to discuss the idea of eating organ meats. As with all the current diet rages these days, organ meats are starting to enjoy their time in the spotlight. Organ meats are full of nutrients and are often more nutrient dense than muscle meat. Organ meats are often rich in the B vitamins, iron and zinc. While I am not a fan of organ meats, I supplement every other day... Read more

52 Weeks of Healthy Eating – A Clean Bill of Health

Last updated on: March 1, 2021 at 2:00 pm By Rob Giannamore

I had my yearly look over with my Doctor the other day. We would look at my bio markers recorded earlier in the year (Cholesterol, Sugar (A1C), blood pressure, liver and kidney functioning. My Doctor was pleased with my numbers and asked me the standard yearly check up questions. He reminded me that the big colonoscopy thing is looming in the future, in 2 years. Not sure how that got here so quickly, I am still 23 in my mind.... Read more

52 Weeks of Healthy Eating: A Collective Approach to Awakening our Health

Last updated on: March 1, 2021 at 12:21 am By Rob Giannamore

March! – I heard red wing black birds the other day on my bike ride. In the North East, the earliest signs of spring are the red wing black birds. Other signs are daffodil and crocus shoots. In April or May, we will begin to hear the spring peepers, a tree frog variety found here in the Eastern US and Canada. Spring is a time of renewal, re – growth, it is a time to re claim our health after... Read more

This week, I want to take a look at what this is and address some tactics you can use to address this troubling mental health phenomenon.

Coffee with Jesus – Considering Right Relationships

Last updated on: February 6, 2021 at 6:32 pm By Rob Giannamore

1 Peter 3:8 – Be like minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble.I met with Jesus the other day for coffee at our usual coffee shop. It is getting around the time of Valentines day and I recently did a presentation on managing relationships during stressful times. I had a verse in mind that I wanted to discuss with Jesus, something his buddy Peter may have written about and I wanted to unpack it. We exchanged our usual pleasantries,... Read more
