Cari is 10 months post Achilles Tendon tear surgery and is anxious to get moving.   This was our "She's Back!!!" excursion which we planned as part of our summer vacation.  Cari mapped out the route to the "subway" hike and we originally wanted to do from the top down, but flash flood warnings prevented us from doing the entire hike.  We didn't know the area well enough to determine if even doing the hike from the bottom up was even safe for this day.  Flash floods killed a guy just days before we got there, and safety was on the highest alert.  
Cari's Achilles' Tendon is doing great, although the stability in her foot is still not 100%.  There were many points during this hike that she couldn't "feel" her footing, and that will only come with time.  The Achilles Tendon Rupture is one of the slowest healing injuries to occur.  It is such a nasty break in lifestyle and can only be described as being "terrible."]]></content:encoded></rss:item><rss:item rdf:about="http://www.fitnesstrainingbyjon.com/blog/2010/8/10/exercising-on-vacation-jon-drags-his-dad-out-to-the-gym-at-t.html"><rss:title>Exercising on Vacation Jon Drags His Dad Out to The Gym at the Westin Kierland In Scottsdale, AZ</rss:title><rss:link>http://www.fitnesstrainingbyjon.com/blog/2010/8/10/exercising-on-vacation-jon-drags-his-dad-out-to-the-gym-at-t.html</rss:link><dc:creator>Jon Ham</dc:creator><dc:date>2010-08-10T12:48:39Z</dc:date><dc:subject>Core Training Indo Board + TRX Fusion Jon Ham Scosche Action Wraps Scosche Sound Kase Shoulders TRX TRX training Traveling Fitness Vacation Exercises Westin Hotels Westin Kierland Scottsdale Resort Workout on Vacation balance training cardio equipment fitness trainer home gym equipment hotel exercises personal trainer posture scosche stability ball traveling exercise trx</dc:subject><content:encoded><![CDATA[As a personal fitness trainer, I’ve heard it a million times, “But I’m on Vacation!  I don’t have to exercise!”  Well, I think it makes your vacation more enjoyable.  What better way to spend time with your family and improve your health and calm you down before baking in the sun at the pool!  Last week I was in Scottsdale for vacation and a wedding and was able to drag my Father out to the gym at the Westin Kierland Resort.  I was able to teach him some exercises he could do at home with the TRX, as well as utilize some of the great equipment they had at the Resort.  We had a great time, and after the first workout, my Dad joined me each day in the gym and vows to continue the routine when he goes home!  Go Dad!  We’ll follow up with him in a couple of months to see how he’s doing…  I say Talk is cheap .]]></content:encoded></rss:item><rss:item rdf:about="http://www.fitnesstrainingbyjon.com/blog/2010/7/21/training-the-mind-body-connection-with-the-ps3-and-mx-vs-atv.html"><rss:title>Training The Mind Body Connection with the PS3 and MX Vs ATV</rss:title><rss:link>http://www.fitnesstrainingbyjon.com/blog/2010/7/21/training-the-mind-body-connection-with-the-ps3-and-mx-vs-atv.html</rss:link><dc:creator>Jon Ham</dc:creator><dc:date>2010-07-22T04:21:38Z</dc:date><dc:subject>Balance Trainer Balance Training Core Training Dr. Terry Weyman Indo Board MX vs ATV Reflex Moto cross Tyler Weyman agility balance training brain fitness brain health indo board training injury mind body connection moto x playstation 3 posture proprioception stability ball</dc:subject><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span class="full-image-float-left ssNonEditable"><span><img style="width: 100px;" src="http://www.fitnesstrainingbyjon.com/storage/Tyler%20Weyman%20training%20on%20the%20indo%20board%20ps3%20reflex.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1279773073388" alt="" /></span></span><a href="http://www.gotcsi.com" target="_blank">Dr. Terry Weyman, DC</a>&nbsp;and his son Tyler have been training for Moto Cross.&nbsp; Terry has Tyler training by using his&nbsp;<a href="http://www.indoboard.com/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=2_3&amp;products_id=3&amp;kbid=2093&amp;m=44&amp;i=59" target="_blank">Indo Board&nbsp;</a>and playing his video games, specifically MX vs. ATV Reflex for Playstation 3.&nbsp; This type of training works on the autonomic nervous system and is great for training for motocross as well as other sports. &nbsp;In the future, I expect to see much more of this type of subconscious training done using the<a href="http://www.indoboard.com/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=2_3&amp;products_id=3&amp;kbid=2093&amp;m=44&amp;i=59" target="_blank">&nbsp;Indo Board</a>&nbsp;for other sports while playing video games. &nbsp;It is great for training the whole body, preventing injury, great exercise, and LOTS OF FUN! &nbsp;It's more difficult than it looks, so good luck!</p>

Tim used to send us out to his customers’ homes after they purchased a piece of equipment and we showed them how to use their new piece of fitness equipment.  Usually we found out that they had some lofty goals, yet no plan of action on HOW to accomplish them.  This usually resulted in us picking up new clients.  
Tim was extremely helpful to us as trainers and focused on giving his clients superior customer service.  This always made us look good and it was great to have someone you knew you could count on.  Tim took a five year hiatus, but now he is back to Thousand Oaks and I am really looking forward to working with him again!  He will be with Specialty Fitness as they embark on a new location and new fitness concept on Thousand Oaks Blvd.  Go visit Tim if you are local and tell him Jon sent you!]]></content:encoded></rss:item><rss:item rdf:about="http://www.fitnesstrainingbyjon.com/blog/2010/7/5/start-your-day-off-with-a-healthy-habit-coachs-oats.html"><rss:title>Start your day off with a Healthy Habit- Coachs Oats</rss:title><rss:link>http://www.fitnesstrainingbyjon.com/blog/2010/7/5/start-your-day-off-with-a-healthy-habit-coachs-oats.html</rss:link><dc:creator>Jon Ham</dc:creator><dc:date>2010-07-06T02:48:01Z</dc:date><dc:subject>Jon Ham Plant Based Nutrition Vegan coachs oats fitness on the run gymnast food gymnastics health food healthy breakfast low calorie meal, nutrition oatmeal plant-based lifestyle suptrainer toasted oat vegetarian</dc:subject><content:encoded><![CDATA[Cari and I have been eating Coach’s Oats now for about a year and I cannot recommend getting in to a healthy habit like this enough.

In this video, Chef Kirk explains how to pound chicken out to make it thinner. Typically with a large boneless breast, the meat can dry out or get stringy. Pounding out the meat to make it thinner will keep the meat juicy and together. The chicken is then grilled and rotated ¼ turn before turning to create some nice hash marks.
Once the chicken was done on the grill, a mango curry sauce is placed on top of the chicken which is on top of a bed of brown rice. The other side dish is a Mediterranean tomato cucumber salad which Jon and Kirk put together.﻿]]></content:encoded></rss:item><rss:item rdf:about="http://www.fitnesstrainingbyjon.com/blog/2010/6/13/mediterranean-tomato-cucumber-salad.html"><rss:title>Mediterranean Tomato Cucumber Salad</rss:title><rss:link>http://www.fitnesstrainingbyjon.com/blog/2010/6/13/mediterranean-tomato-cucumber-salad.html</rss:link><dc:creator>Jon Ham</dc:creator><dc:date>2010-06-14T03:59:56Z</dc:date><dc:subject>Healthy cooking Jon Ham Vegan abs diet feta cheese health food hhealthy eating kirk leins low calorie meal, mediterranean tomato cucumber salad notime to cook plant-based lifestyle salad vegetarian</dc:subject><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span>Here's Jon Ham and<a href="http://www.notimetocook.com" target="_blank"> Kirk Leins</a> making a quick side dish that  has Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Basil, cold pressed olive oil, fresh ground  black pepper, sea salt, Feta Cheese, and some sherry vinegar.
