Fitter, Faster, Necessity

How would YOU become fitter quickly/er?

By condensing your workouts with intensity and increasing volume.

This is a method I’ve used for years to get ahead and rank as an athlete in multiple sports despite never training sport-specific for said sports.

It’s the same method we used with Adam at our studio to catapult him within months to one of the top SPARTAN racers in the world.
Of course, the effort put forth is up to you!

You can either produce a greater volume within the same time frame by using the same weight as your last workout, though increasing the reps, the sets and attempting to finish within the same time limit: think Belley Bursts or popularized Crossfit WODs.

Or you can increase the weight, keep the reps constant and add sets, with a slight allowance for increased time.

 

Either way, added volume each session is an easy approach to increasing your fitness level.
KEYPOINT: Always execute proper form and allow for deload/unload sessions every few weeks. This will keep you from burning out and help your results continue.

 

Belley Fitness is currently located in Marshfield, Massachusetts.

Offering Obstacle Course Training, Personal Training, Group Training, Athlete Training.

Jamie Eason is Awesome

If you’ve been a client of mine, EVER, then you know my appreciation and respect for fitness model Jamie Eason.

 

Is she gorgeous?

 

Yes.

 

Is she a hard worker?

 

Yes.

 

Every one of us struggles with beginning and completing our necessary training sessions.

 

Every one of us laments and fringes with following through on our personal eating plans.

 

Every one of us has some insecurity, suffers from some setback, and has to overcome at least one obstacle DAILY to continue achieving our physique goals.

 

And every one of us HAS TO SUCK IT UP and do something we severely dislike or even hate in order to get what we want.

 

The difference between us and fitness models, as Jamie Eason, is their consistent diligence, and birth-right to have the natural beauty to be fitness models.

 

That means the rest of us have the opportunity to be nearly as fit looking, nearly as beautiful, suffer equally with our personal plans, but, the only difference, we won’t get paid for our similar struggles with fitness, nutrition and mindset.

 

And to be honest, and even Jamie will admit, fitness models do not appear in real life as they do on the cover of a magazine, like Oxygen, Men’s Fitness or similar.

Fitness models will have hundreds, if not a over a thousand photos taken in one session.

Then from those plethora of  2-dimensional options, one to four photos will be selected.

Then one of those photos will succeed to be on the cover or in the magazine.

Then that one photo will undergo up to 8 hours of Photoshop to enhance that image: smooth out physical flaws, sharpen muscle bellies, fix complexion issues, etc.

 

Plus Jamie Eason is one of those trainees, like myself, that you’ll hear her say she “hates running”, but, she forces herself to do it anyway because it’s what is required to get her goal.

 

I understand Jamie in that regard.

 

I hate running.

 

Passionately hate running.

 

But, in order to get what I want, it has been, and will be, necessary for me to perform for years to come still.

 

Sometimes I even eat foods that I hate because, well, sometimes you have to suck it the fuck up and do the things you dislike to get what you want.

 

It’s life.

 

So appreciate this video of Jamie.

 

It’s informative and honest.

 

And you’ll notice some similarities between how I honestly share info with you at Belley Fitness in Marshfield, and how I lead my life very similar to Jamie’s.

 

And you know she’s a a girl and I’m a guy.

 

And she’s very lean and I pretty lean too.

 

But still, we BOTH have to follow the same principles of training, eating and mindset.

Elimination Diet Top 11 Foods

I was asked a couple times the past few days by clients about the Elimination Diet.

 

These questions came undoubtedly due to the new year craving to kick-start fat loss resolutions and to fit back into a favorite pair of jeans!

 

And I don’t blame anyone. I love getting on the Elimination Diet and I love the way I feel once I’m full swing and rightfully committed to sharpening my physique.

 

Anyway, I was asked via text messages and at the Marshfield studio what foods I’d stock up on if I were undergoing the Elimination Diet.

 

So I complied a list =)

 

Here’s my top 11!

 

  • Eggs
  • Sweet Potatoes
  • Grass-Fed Beef
  • Haddock
  • Cauliflower
  • Oranges
  • Asparagus
  • Cashews
  • Salmon
  • Bananas
  • Blueberries

 

Granted, this list is catered to my own taste buds, however, you can choose from the dozens and dozens of foods that are available for the beginning of your own elimination.

 

Clients at Belley Fitness are requested to start their new meal plans with the Elimination Diet from 10-28 days before transitioning into the Belley Way Meal Plan.

nearly 30 years later.

 

I still have an original copy of this book.

 

I may not fully support the entire guideline above in The Belley Bible, however, I do agree with 90% of the above guide.

Anti-Lovely Lady Lump tips for the Fella’s

Today we’re going to cover a few bullet points of falling off the wagon. Chuck pony style; the kind that leaves you all warm and fuzzy inside, like a Meg Ryan movie (completely normal to cry to Joe And The Volcano).

 
 
Warm Thoughts Only

Warm Thoughts Only

 
 

So here’s the scenario:

 

You’ve decided to finally commit yourself to eating better and working out.

 
 

You’ve been hitting training sessions pretty good, well, as best you can while still leaving optional room for thirsty Thursdays, liquid lunch Fridays and sweetness sweet Saturdays. Not to forget, blow my f*#*ing brains out Monday 🙂

 
 

None the less, you’re Hero-ing 3 days a week! With all due respect I’d say you’re one Celine Dion hit away from complete self-annihilation, however, here are some tips to cool your passive aggressive anger and abandonment fantasies. Take it away Johnny!

 
 
  1. When you want to eat something really-really-really bad, brush your teeth. If that doesn’t work, lift your shirt and gaze at your love lumps in the mirror. If that doesn’t do it, review your life insurance policy and see what it says about obesity and if there’s a Twix or Twinkie clause. Or in most cases, I’d suggest eating a clementine or orange first. Usually the sweetness of the citrus will curb some sugar cravings and lay those lovely lady lumps to rest.
  2.  
     
  3. When you’re having a tantrum on training, remember if you do, you’ll be better than your closest friends at every sport in about 5 years. If that doesn’t help, remember being the HOTT DAD at the playground, BBQ’s, reunions, High School athletic events and the infatuation of all the other moms and wives is ridiculously rewarding.
  4.  
     
  5. Put on a t-shirt from high school, or your favorite jeans or dress shirt that your girlfriend from three girlfriends past gifted you. Does it fit? If not, go on Facebook and find her latest profile pic. Does she look hot? Is her new boyfriend a good looking guy, maybe a little James Dean-esque-bad-boy? If so, I swear you’ll be at the gym and swallowing copious amounts of BCAA’s and protein powder in nanoseconds!
  6.  
     
  7. Call your most successful friend and ask him to meet you at the gym. Usually, seeing someone kick some ass, leads to you kicking more ass! Just don’t slap asses in the gym. Cue the 1980’s-training-room-montage-scene!
  8.  
     
  9. Call your ex-girlfriend, any should suffice, and ask her what went wrong. This list should provide ample weeks of hate and fantastic motivation.
  10.  
     
  11. Go back in your head to a time you got your grill knocked in by the schoolyard bully. Imagine how good it would feel to approach him as an adult after a few months of hitting it hard and knocking his ass out! If he just so happens to be a UFC fighter then maybe you can revert to a memory when the lunch-lady shafted you a full serving of garlic rice ball or shitty corner piece of pizza with two sides of crust
. some people are just evil.
  12.  
     
  13. Watch The Fighter or Rocky. Hell watch Designing Women if Anthony or Mary Jo inspire you. But watch something for fuel!
     

    ADRENALINE SURGE!

  14.  
  15. When all else fails pamper yourself bro. Cucumber eyes and facials. LIFE CHANGING!
  16.

Holy F$#% Where Did That Come From?!

Holy F$#% Where Did That Come From?!

Its second set of hips season again 😉

As you all know, Holidays actually spells Crisco
 for technical term, reference Belley’s Dictionary:

Ho-li-days adv
Definition of HOLIDAYS
: the seasonal period between the gobble gobble gee and the fat bearded man who chimney sweeps and races deer : often times encompassing the famed days of absurdly pathological drinking and collegiate level bowl hangover viewing

 HOLIDAYS used in context
“OMG, Becky. Look at her butt. It is so big. She looks like one of those rap guys girlfriends
 They only talk to her because she looks like a total prostitute, ok. I mean her butt. It’s just so big. I can’t believe it’s just so round. It’s just so out there. I mean, GROSS.”
First known use of Holidays
circa B.C. “Does thie brontosaurus burger make me look fat?”
 
 
 
 

Do you want to be the obsessively stared at second butt to Becky and her BFF?

I’d think not.

Don't be too tight spandex girl at the Burger King

So let’s avoid the unofficially knighted Sir Mix-A-Lot’s theory and suggestion to “Playin workout tapes by Fonda. But Fonda ain’t got a motor in the back of her Honda” because he clearly did not foresee high fructose corn syrup and McDonald’s terrorizing weaker Americans fat cells.

 

But I guess when you’re knighted by 23 with no University or England affiliation and your entire catalog is about bums what can you ask for?

This Has To Be a Fake. His head is ginormous

He may have won a Grammy but that doesn’t make him a dietician or successful physique coach. But it does make him a double platinum selling artist and MTV award winner.
 
 
 
 

And none the less, he’ll never overtake the King and his Burger Sponge Bob promo. Mix-a-Lot changed his lyrics just for the king… although kind of perverse to lure young children for toys into the burger lair.

This guy will tell ya something about fat booties

I heart America J

Next post, I’ll tell you all about the real rigors of becoming Miss Massachusetts 😉 Little did I know being over the age of 25 and being a man constitutes no-entry to the event… formalities.
