Vote! Help Fitz Help Florida School Children Get Fit
Monday, February 8th, 2010
Help Florida Kids get fit!
I’ve recently entered a magnificent competition to attain a $250,000 grant through Pepsi’s Refresh Project. I’m asking for the money to produce 180 fitness video podcasts which would be available to be viewed daily by all Florida school children. The purpose of this project is to impact the children by providing health, fitness, sports and nutrition education on a consistent basis, fighting childhood obesity and promoting a healthy lifestyle. (Vote here!)
In a day which 90% of children go to school with high fat, high sugar lunches and spend their evenings at home plopped in front of a computer, I’m eager to get in to their lives and make an impact! Please vote for Fitter Florida Kids up to 10 times a day throughout the entire month of February. And if you feel strongly that children everywhere could benefit from a consistant fitness message, please ask your friends to vote too!
You may see the entire proposal at the voting site! Thanks to the Pepsi Company for this grand opportunity!
Tim Tebow: The Ultimate Sportsman shows Heroics with a Date

Tim Tebow is the great American sports hero. Unsurpassed accomplishments on the football field and a heart worthy of saint status off it. Last night, Tim escorted a young fan of his with a brain tumor down the red carpet at the The Home Depot ESPNU College Football Awards show taking her beyond her wildest dreams. Clifton, Virginia resident Kelly Faughnan, 20, whom he’d met the day before asked her parents for a trip to Disney World for a chance to simply meet her idol. Instead she became his date.
Tim Tebow and his elite football team, the University of Florida Gators, just suffered a disappointing loss in last weeks SEC Championship game. Thank goodness the boy knows his greatest efforts are always done off the football field. He’s a winner in every sense of the word, and as a fellow Gator, I couldn’t be prouder. I can only hope that my son grows up as well as Timmy has! Check out the red carpet interview with Tim and his beautiful date below. To read more on this inspirational story click here.

Drink Responsibly
Thursday, August 6th, 2009
The most common mission I often help people with is that of weight loss. You’ll constantly hearing me preaching the values of basing your eating habits around produce, lean protein, lean dairy, whole grains and legumes. If 90% of the things you put in your mouth are legitimately healthy … the other 10% won’t hurt you so much. I’m also a huge proponent of not drinking your calories. Why? Caloric beverages are often loaded with sugar and empty calories. Calories from a glass are often very unsatisfying leaving you hungry to consume the chewable kind of calories as well.
I don’t imagine everyone will adhere to my guidelines perfectly of course, but when people come close … they usually get where they want to go. With that in mind, I bend slightly with the caloric beverages rule. How so? Well, although I think it would be a bad idea (for your waistline) to drink five glasses a day, a glass of freshly squeezed pure fruit juice on occasion is something I can’t fight too hard about. I’d always prefer that you eat an orange, but pure orange juice is so full of beneficial vitamins and nutrients that I couldn’t say that it was techinically bad for you. The difference? A navel orange will cost you 50 calories, is full of nutrition and includes fiber which will fill you up - thus detering you from eating more. A four ounce glass of freshly squeezed pure orange juice also costs 50 calories, an eight ounce glass 100, and is packed with nutrition. The juice does not contain fiber though, which will eventually cause you to consume more calories.
