Controlling Your Weight!
The Fitness Retreat
Just about everyone seems to be interested in weight control. Some weigh the
right amount; others need to gain weight. Most
“battle the bulge” at some point in life. Whatever your goals, it’s important to understand the role of exercise and eating right in keeping your
weight under control.
It’s now recommended that adults do at least 150 minutes a week of moderate aerobic
activity and also do muscle-strengthening activities that are moderate or high
intensity and involve all major muscle groups at least two days a week.
A balanced diet should be a part of any weight control plan. And by balanced I
don
’t just mean eating the right foods. You must also consider portion size!
Sounds like a lot, I know. It’s ok. Relax. To get started, build realistic goals. Find a training partner. Get
set up with a personal trainer for guidance or new ideas. Also, keep a food
journal (you will be surprised how much this alone makes a difference!) Don
’t forget to track your progress and reward yourself for reaching your goals.

Enjoy the Outdoors While You Train!
Primal Gym
Primal Gym promotes health and fitness in an outdoor setting through strength
training, cardio techniques, nutritional strategies and lifestyle habits.
Strength Training
Primal Gym offers effective exercises that mimic human movement. Squats, lifts,
pushes, pulls, rotations and lunges create the foundation of the strength
program.
Cardio Training
The goal is elevated fat-burning for hours following cardio activity rather than
maintaining the mythical
“fat burning zone” during cardio activity. Interval cardio forces your body to work harder,
requires a longer recovery period and metabolizes stored body fat well beyond
the end of the cardio session.
Nutritional Strategies
Proper nutrition is just as important as both strength and cardio training
combined. Your macronutrients are the key to building and fueling your body
transformation, sports performance and general vitality.
Lifestyle Habits
Primal Gym encourages attention to all life components: career, family,
financial, spiritual and physical. Maximizing your investment in training and
nutrition requires a balanced lifestyle.
Learn more by visiting primalgym.com or calling 832-978-7200. Individual training and small group training are
available to keep the training sessions personalized.

movement), it improves postural problems and increases core strength, stability
and peripheral mobility. No-impact pilates is easy on the joints, and can be
customized to suit everyone from rehab patients to elite athletes. Regular
practice of pilates increases ease of movement and balances strength and
flexibility.
