♥ A Note from Lani ♥
Lani, hello!
Welcome to the first edition of my new FitDream eZine! Things have just been exploding around here with new projects PLUS exciting news from students and clients (some of which you'll read about below.) I tell you, opportunities abound - for each of us!
Maybe it's the promise of Spring...OK, so it's still February...yet the blossoms are popping on the almond trees in the valley and some of the birds are returning from their southern migration - I hear them each morning on my walk in the woods.
Let me know how you like the articles and items in this issue! Also, if you haven't had a chance to download my Special Report, Essential Elements and Critical Steps for Fitness Success, you can find the link to do so at the end of the "Transformations" article in this edition. As a matter of fact, responses to this document have been so positive that I am preparing a Fr*ee TeleSeminar for a live presentation of same for Monday, March 10. Registration details in next week's FitDream eZine.
Things are really cooking in T-Tapp classes at San Francisco State University - in the workouts as well as the laboratory!
As you may know, I am working with the Kinesiology Department Senior Research Seminar group at San Francisco State University while also teaching T-Tapp classes there for students and staff.
Exciting preliminary results - DIRECTLY related to your experience! T-Tapp alignment principles and isometric isolation techniques create a significantly deeper energy demand than similar exercises done WITHOUT attention to T-Tapp principles. OK, you knew it all along, but to a teacher like me, so exciting to see those graphs going wild in the lab!
And we didn't just go by "feel" - we utilized technical lab equipment for analysis. Specifically, yours truly underwent a batter of tests utilizing, electro-myography, or EMG (see image). This utilized placement of electrodes at specific muscle fiber points in the body. Here's how the testing for me was set up:
I was "linked up" with electrodes at 4 specific sites: biceps, rhomboids, quadriceps, and hamstrings. Then I performed 4 reps of various exercises, in a "traditional" fashion, then with T-Tapp forms. Specifically, I performed bicep curls, side lunges, side leg lifts (T-Tapp Balance sequence) and triceps kick-backs. The repetitions performed with T-Tapp principles of alignment and isometric isolation proved performance at significantly higher muscle activation and recruitment than those without implementation of same!
What are the implications of this for you? You can be confident that by utilizing the T-Tapp instructions of functional alignment and isometric isolations that you are indeed creating a greater metabolic workload, increased calorie consumption, and comprehensive training! This means less workout time, more out of what you do, and increased benefit of time spent. All features I love about T-Tapp!
Transformations
by Lani Muelrath
What is your dream? What do you want? What are you willing to reach for? What's in your way of getting there? The answers to these questions may surprise you.
As I step back and take a look at the gifts that being in the health and fitness field have brought me, I simply have to marvel at the great good fortune of being in a place to assist others in generating such change.
At the same time, I am also aware of how many pursue a fitness dream, while actually on the way to something deeper: self empowerment, respect of accomplishment, health, freedom to get ON with one's life...
I have to ask myself, what is the deciding factor between ascension into levels of success and the seeming opposite, false starts and being STUCK - once again?
It is with this in mind that I have deepened the wholistic nature of my work with clients and students. AND it is with this basis that I have created a new platform of success option for aspirants of change: Transformation Tools for Success.
ALL of the elements you may be working with in the arena of health and fitness, as you aspire to improving your body, mind, and life, are pieces of the puzzle that are your vision, your dream. It's easy to get lost in the pile of puzzle pieces if we don't keep our eyes on what it is we are looking to create. And we wonder why we get bogged down!
If you're ready to look beyond the surface, and create even more of a synergy with your T-Tapp workouts, eating habits, and a myriad of other elements while being the single most important agent in your OWN transformation, then I wholeheartedly invite you to do so! If you'd like my assistance, you can contact me at
. Transformation Intensives in the form of private consults as well as classes are underway AND in the works!
In the meantime, if you haven't done so already, you can go to my website and download my report, "5 Essential ElementsAND 3 Critical Steps for Fitness Success and Freedom for Transformational Change"by entering your email in the box on the upper right corner of the page. If you are already on my newsletter list (and most likely you ARE if you are receiving this eZine!" Then you can download my report here.
DreamMakers Mailbox...
Nothing quite makes the day like a fulfilling connection with a student or client, and then they write to tell you about it! This just in my mailbox this morning...and why I am SO excited about new dimensions at DreamMakers!
Hi Lani,
You have been a breath of fresh air for me today! I needed a new perspective on my lifestyle, exercise, etc. I only wish I lived closer so I could see you on a regular basis and capture the "essence" of what you teach., but phone consultations are very effective also.
I feel very energized after today's session and look forward to talking with you again. You are very intuitive and knowledgeable not only on the fitness area but also about people and what we deal with on a daily basis.
Thanks again,
Julie K., CN
T-Tapp Talk
This is one of the many exciting reports (stay tuned for more in future issues of FitDream Ezine!) from clients and students. This just in from Maria, Academic Tech Consultant at SFSU, regarding her T-Tapp studies:
I've noticed quite a bit of differences. My last menses was finally normal (just a few days and medium). For the past couple of years I've been having problems, namely a menses that lasted for over 2 weeks.
My appetite has also changed considerably, I'm less hungry and have been eating smaller portions. I've also been feeling thirsty all day and have been drinking lots of water. In the past I probably only drank one or two glasses of water a day. I feel like I have better posture and am more aware of my body. This past week I lost FIVE pounds! I hope to reach my 10 percent weight loss in the next two weeks. I've lost 2inches off my hips thus far. I've noticed that the fat under my arms seems to have decreased.
I look forward to doing the program especially when my back is aching or feeling rigid. I feel better and happier over all.
The better I keep form the more challenging the moves and the more I get out of the work out. The enthusiasm and testimonials of the instructor (Lani) were motivating and infectious . Her testimonial gave me hope that I could get my desired results. Thanks Lani, I'm so happy I met you!
