As long as I can remember, I've never really been a morning person. Was never the kind of average guy that gets up, has a cup of coffee and than drive off to a dead end job; first of all I hate coffee and rather jump an awesome cup of Spark mixed with Rehydrate and I just never could live in a dead end job and wanted to be happy, make money that made feel worthy and really accomplished. For most people, waking up sucks and you never feel like you got enough sleep and you're not always fond of the people you have to see everyday. What if you switched gears with your mindset and found a way to wake up with gusto and ready to tackle the day. It has been said that within the first hour of your day, its going to make or break the rest of it.
First off, how you bring out yourself starts in your mind and what you feel starts with your heart. Nobody wants to wake up miserable and feeling like crap, that always spells disaster unless some miracle happens and you magically become this overbearing sweet person. Plus you never want to start your day dull, tedious and downright boring as hell. Doing the same routine and feeling close to the same way all the damn time. I'd say switch things up a bit and move like an animal in the morning. You don't have to start out being all giddy and busting with life, just move for 30 seconds and build from there. Add 10 seconds each morning until you're doing a full minute or more of movement. Stretching everything out, waking up the lungs and having some fun little by little before work.
When you move like a wild animal, you're opening up the energy in your body, creating endorphins and developing a strong brain as you shift your arms and legs in various directions. You don't even need to start out with an advanced movement, just do what you can do for 30 seconds and build it up from there. As you get stronger, make it more interesting. When you release endorphins, you're unleashing that happiness trigger in the brain and opening up channels in the body that releases that feeling good mechanism.
Be a bear, duck, crab, rabbit, gorilla or whatever other animal you want to be. Do more than one, it is up to you. Start moving and than start getting ready for work and see how much better you'll feel.
Get the book Animal Workouts for great ideas and workouts you can do to spice your day first thing or even later in the day.

What else? I have a few questions to ask...
Do you EVER feel overwhelmed? anxious?
Lack a good night's rest?
Catch a cold or illness easy?
Tired... lethargic or just plain out of energy?
Experience "brain fog" or cloudy thinking?
If you answered yes... as so many others do, there is a special category of herbs I want to introduce you to Adaptogens.
Adaptogens, these are herbs and supplements that help the body adapt to outside stressors in an effort to normalize body function and reaction... among many other qualities.
Each of the questions above refers to reasons why people take adaptogenic herbs.
Plus, they are much safer, and in many cases more effective than other treatments out there.
Each day that passes... we age, our energy begins to decline, our hormones begin to drop and the rest fall into place thereafter.
With that being said our bodies ability to protect us will decline if we fail to recognize its needs.
Check out this complete list of herbs, read their details and analyze which may be right for you.
~ In Honor of Memorial Day ~
Thank you to all those who have served, and will serve for the better of the world.

Why Is Stress So Serious To Your Health?
I think you can agree that sometimes there is just too much stress in life…
Maybe because of school, work, parenting or a number of other culprits, but there are options to help with that.
One of which is a natural 100% herbal adaptogenic formula (described in detail below).
But first….
Why is Stress so Serious to Your Health?
Long-term, uncontrolled stress can lead to a variety of ailments, including high blood pressure, heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, and depression.
When under stress, the body releases the stress hormones cortisol and adrenaline to help cope with the situation. This causes the heart to beat faster and increases blood pressure.
Unhealthy stress coping mechanisms like smoking, drinking too much and overeating can contribute to heart disease.
Stress has become so common in our world today based on our hectic lifestyles, that most people just assume it's natural and that there isn't anything they can do about it.
But that's WRONG!
Stress can be managed.
There are actually a lot of small things you can incorporate into your daily routine to help manage stress. Eating healthier and making better food choices, taking a short brisk walk, stealing 10-15 minutes out of your busy schedule to sit quietly and meditate, and there are even herbs that can help.
The Spartan Adaptogenic Formula
This blend had all the right herbs and adaptogens to help you combat stress and relieve fatigue. Adaptogens fight all kinds of fatigue and allow our body to adapt and function better.
This special blend includes the following herbs:
Rhodiola Rosea is a root that clearly has some amazing effects here in assisting with fatigue and more. This was the original plant from which the term adaptogen came to be.
Eleuthero, previously known as Siberian Ginseng, comes in a close second.
Schisandra, a Chinese berry, may look like a laggard here, but it also has other far-reaching effects helping digestion, skin, liver detox and more.
Check out this research…
This pharmacological profile is from an article by Panossian and Wikman, that was published in Pharmaceuticals 2010, Effects of Adaptogens on the Central Nervous System and the Molecular Mechanisms Associated with Their Stress-Protective Activity. It was a review of all the other science and studies on these three amazing adaptogens.
Try the Spartan Adaptogenic Formula for yourself.
P.S. Check out what Brett had to say about his experience with Spartan Formula...
“I feel like a freaking Spartan. And I feel a little weird writing that in a review, but it’s true. I’m a 38-year-old business owner. I’ve been taking this for about a week to week and a half and the mental clarity and energy I’m experiencing is pretty remarkable. I also feel a little more aggressive…like a need to get a work out in. Anyway, I’ve been a supplement guy forever in terms of vitamins and the basics. I’m new to this stuff, but it’s been amazing so far.”

It's Party Time....P-A-R-T Why? Cause I Gotta
For you young kids out there, there was a movie that came out way, way, way back in 1994 called The Mask that helped launch Jim Carrey into the stratosphere of Comedy Films. One of my favorites as a kid and got even funnier as an adult. Now why would I would be talking about a movie when this is supposed to be about exercise? Here's the answer.
I came across a fun workout to do today to activate my muscles and wake up my body. The moment I saw the title of it, I immediately thought of the film because it's one of Jim Carrey's lines in the movie when he puts on the mask for the first time. Figured I'd give it a shot since it looked pretty damn easy. No rest and did all 7 sets it required for the Level. Now this is not meant as a regular workout or a replacement, it is for active recovery or as a warm-up or even as a finisher to your current workouts. It stretches and strengthens the muscles of the shoulders, core and knees.
Something quick to do to stay active and keeping up your energy. You can do this in the morning before work, after or before a workout at the gym, keeping muscles loose after a walk or swim in the pool/lake/ocean, you can do it anywhere. We want to keep our bodies limber and strong especially as we get older so why not do something fun to keep up the quality of life?
Here is the Workout if you wish to do it, very simple, quick and I encourage you to mimic good ole Stanley Ipkiss wearing the mask.....
If you want to see classic 90's Comedy, than watch The Mask. Awesome movie and it's Jim Carrey at his best when he became a legend.

Little Known Benefit Of Animal Exercise (NSFW)
There are so many benefits from Animal Exercises; there's increased athleticism, conditioning, agility, functional fitness & strength. In addition to these benefits, there's one rarely mentioned and the main reason is it is because those who discover it, keep it to themselves. It is the development of greater sexual energy or increased libido.
When you move like a wild animal, your body shifts into overdrive because you're using multiple muscles in one shot. This leads to a more positive aspect of endorphins, powerful energy throughout the central nervous system and because of how you use the legs during certain exercises, you're increasing natural growth hormone. It aids in the energy of the pelvis and puts a great impact on the sex organs. This helps with creating extra pleasure when you have sex with your partner.
2 Animal moves that I found to increase libido is the Bear Crawl and the Chimp Walk. Although one uses more limbs, the chimp walk is a profound movement that targets the legs in a unique way. You're basically in half squat and walking in that position; really hitting the lower body to the degree that when done consistently, you can increase lung power and endurance. Now imagine what that can do for you in the bedroom. The bear crawl is pretty simple, get on all fours and start moving. You're targeting everything in this movement and if done in a sprint, talk about fire in the loins. Your sex drive can go through the roof and feel like an 18 year old kid again. Not just energy for great sex but aids in weight loss, fat loss and increased metabolism.
Sex is a beautiful thing period. It is the bonding of two people and having amazing energy and pleasure. How can you go wrong when you can build your body moving like an animal and having the ability to go at it like rabbits lol. Start moving like an animal a few minutes each day and see where that leads. Build a foundation and I dare you to tell me that it didn't help your sex life.
If you want to add supplements to your training to aid in the process of increasing your libido naturally, here are a few things that can help.
Pine Pollen
Horny Goat Weed
Tongkat Ali
Cistanche
