Food, a fact of life – www.foodafactoflife.org.uk

I can’t remember how I stumbled on this webpage, but it is aimed at school teachers/parents trying to teach healthy nutrition to kids.

Having said that, I know for a fact that most adults (myself included) can learn a lot from it.  Just some of the things on the webpage include:

• Videos showing the basics of how to cook in general, and how to cook some nice actual recipes.
• Dozens of simple recipes to knock up yourself in your kitchen.  If you can’t find a few you like the look of, you are odd in the head!
• Cooking lessons aimed at 3-16 year olds (I learned things from the ones aimed at the 3 year olds!).
• Posters you can download and print out helping explain all about food/nutrition etc.
• eSeminars – these are video presentations given by experts to a “live” audience on the web.  This audience can participate, ask questions of these experts etc.  And best of all, they have recordings of previous eSeminars that you can watch and learn from (but obviously not participate in, duh!)

So please go take a look at this webpage and spend a couple of days browsing through it.  If you are struggling to control your bodyweight, it can help you loads.

Alternatively, you can hire me and I can do it for you

I see my job as helping people move more, and move better (hence the tagline to my website – “Movement & Variety”).  I’ve been lucky and since I started Karate when I was 7, I have been coached to move well (well = efficiently, safely and with coordination).

And because of this, I notice just how many people move badly (badly = inefficient, unsafe and uncoordinated…click here).  These people come in all shapes and sizes, from your average Joe through to your exercise junkie.  And by moving badly, we run the risk of, at best, not improving our bodyweight/fitness/performance, and at worst, developing acute/chronic injuries (how many people do you know with “dodgy” back/knees/shoulders etc?).

So I have been trying various ways to help more people move better (click here).  And I think I have a new way…but I need your help to make sure it works.

Shamelessly stealing ideas from Hollywood, I can now film people moving/performing/exercising/competing, and with the help of my trusty computer, can track, analyse and measure their movements.  Watching this back on a DVD at home, people can then see where they are going right/wrong and what their strengths/weaknesses are.

I’ve stuck together a few of my early test runs in the video below…

Best of all, after they have had a chance to practice, by analysing their movements a second time, we can compare them “before and after”, see how they have improved and what their next problem is (remember, we always have problems…we just need to steadily go through life correcting one at a time).

I’ve tested this out on myself and found that my endurance needs improving (this is because I have such a short attention span that I can never be arsed to spend more than a couple of minutes on any one thing!).

So I am calling out for volunteers!  Anyone who:

• wants to see just how they are moving and how it can be improved
• does or does not exercise/train regularly (this is beneficial for athletes wanting to improve performance and your average person just looking for improved health)
• is willing to let me and my computer use them as lab rats
• lives in or somewhere not a million miles away from Skipton

So if this sounds like you, contact me (click here) today and I can arrange to meet up with you!

Karate-Do: My Way of Life(paperback)

Transcript -

“the neighbors took to the conjecturing among themselves as to where I went and what I was doing. Some decided that the only possible answer to this curios enigma as a brothel.

The truth was very different indeed. Night after night, often in the backyard of Azato house as the master looked on, I would practice a kata time and again week after week, sometimes month after month, until I had mastered it to my teacher’s satisfaction. This constant repetitions of a single kata was grueling, often exasperating and on occassion humiliating. More than once I had to lick the dust on the floor of the dojo or inthe Azato backyard. But practice was strict, and I was never permitted to move on to another kata until Azato was convinced that I had satisfactorily understood the one I had been working on.”
