| * Fit Tip of the Week: |
| It’s almost guaranteed that a transformation will take you longer than you expect it to.
What you really need to know is that fat loss and fat gain are both dependent on energy balance. You don’t have excess pounds of a positive energy balance to cause a fat gain in a few short days, so we need to stop expecting to lose it that fast.
The entire process, gain or lose, is scientifically pretty slow. But it is worth it. |

| * Golf Fitness: |
| Do you have a hard time hip-hinging? Do you know what hip hinging is and how to do it properly? If you do have a hard time or do not know how, you’re more likely to lose your posture in your swing, and could also be opening yourself up to low back injuries. |

What - “When Breath Becomes Air” by Paul Kalanithi
Why - We all face battles and ask questions. I love hearing people’s stories, thoughts, successes, and failures. This is not your typical relaxing, beach read, but I can’t recommend it enough.
The Amazon review is as follows: When Breath Becomes Air is a powerful look at a stage IV lung cancer diagnosis through the eyes of a neurosurgeon. When Paul Kalanithi is given his diagnosis, he is forced to see this disease, and the process of being sick, as a patient rather than a doctor--the result of his experience is not just a look at what living is and how it works from a scientific perspective, but the ins and outs of what makes life matter. This heart-wrenching book will capture you from page one and still have you thinking long after the final sentence.

| * WellFit Center update: |
| We want to hear from you! Does your child play sports? Would you like to see high-level skill instruction on property here at The Oaks Club? If baseball, softball, basketball, lacrosse, field hockey, volleyball, soccer, swimming, and football instruction is what you want, please let me know! We already do sport strength and conditioning; this would be skill instruction and practice of skills. |
