Nutrition Tips & Seasonal Recipes
|
THE BENEFITS OF FRUITS & VEGGIES
|
The Many Colors of Health
Fruits and vegetables come in terrific colors and flavors,
but
their real beauty lies in what's inside. Fruits and vegetables
are
great sources of many vitamins, minerals and other natural
substances that may help protect you from chronic diseases.
To get a healthy variety, think color. Eating fruits and
vegetables of different colors gives your body a wide range
of
valuable nutrients, like fiber, folate, potassium, and vitamins
A
and C. Some examples include green spinach, orange sweet
potatoes,
black beans, yellow corn, purple plums, red watermelon,
and white
onions. For more variety, try new fruits and
vegetables regularly.

RIDING TO HELP OTHERS: DISABLED SPORTS
|
Providing disabled
children and
adults the opportunity to enjoy biking and
other sports on Mammoth Mountain
and
throughout the Sierra.
In support of their fundraising efforts, Tom has formed a
small
team, Bay Area Easy Riders, to ride over 130 Miles with a vertical
climb of 8000 feet in 3 days .
To do this, we need your help! The funds we raise for The
Sierra Cycle
Challenge go directly toward supporting students
with individualized
instruction and adaptive equipment, so
they can enjoy the same sports that you
and I do. Your
donationswill allow an autistic student to take his or her
first runs
down Mammoth Mountain or a Wounded Warrior from the
Iraq/Afghan
war to remember that life is still worth living.
Our Goal: Raise $6,000. Please help us reach the
goal with
a tax-deductible donation to Disabled Sports Eastern Sierra.
A donation of any amount would be appreciated.
DSES accepts checks
through the mail, and credit cards
online or over the phone:

JULY TESTIMONIAL
|
Shawn C: Los Altos, CA
NoXcuses gets everything right- the facility is spacious, the
ambiance is great (no meaty gym feel) and the space is
smartly split between a pilates/yoga side and a cardio/weight side.
It's very clean and the owners are wonderful!
The owner, Angie, is a friendly, down-to-earth mom of two
and a fantastic pilates/yoga trainer. I've been strength training
with Cameron for almost 5 years and he is the best- very smart,
incredibly knowledgable and committed to helping you reach your
goals. I started going to Cameron after having my second child,
he helped me get back into shape quickly. I've tried other gyms that
are closer to my house but have always come back to NoXcuses for Cameron and the environment/quality of the gym.
