Have a busy weekend ahead of me
but wanted to reach out and share some
of the interesting comments from
yesterdays post.

What do you think I should have done?

Drop the weights or run FASTER in the lightning storm?

I want to know.

It goes without saying, so I will say it,
you are always welcome to leave blog
comments for others to read and benefit from.

There is genius in everything that is sent to
me.  And if not, we always have the final
say in posting the material.

Go here to read what other Palkoholics have
written in the comments section.

yesterday’s quote from a post up there as well.

Have a wonderful weekend!

P.S. One of my friends is trying to get fit for his high school reunion…
to cut weight fast, this is what I suggested- LB Fitness. It can work for you too.

I wanna lead today’s note with this…

“Every man should be able to save his own life. He should be able to swim far enough, run fast and long enough to save his life in case of emergency and necessity. He also should be able to chin himself a reasonable number of times, as well as to dip a number of times, and he should be able to jump a reasonable height and distance.” (Liederman, Endurance)

Now when most people read this
they think to themselves… ahh, this will never happen
to me. I won’t be dumb enough to put me in
harms way.

Or at least that’s how they rationalize
their way out of getting healthy and fit.

Well, ask the few folks who lost their
lives in 911 ’cause they were too gassed to
climb down the stairs of the World Trade Center to safety.

They not only gave up on themselves but their
kids and their families.

So you just never know.

Well, last night I found myself in one of those moment Liederman warned about.

I went for a walk but wanted
a more intense, heart pumping
workout, so I grabbed the nearest ten pound metal
dumb bells.  And boy was this dumb I’d later
think.

When I walked through the front door and out
into the dark night, something in the air
seemed unusual.

The air was thick and heavy.

I thought nothing of it and began to
exercise walking down the sidewalk.

I got a 1/4 way into my normal trek and it started to sprinkle.

No big deal I said to myself a little refreshing
summer shower.

Then a little more rain. By this time I was about 2.75 miles
from the abode. And a little more.  Eventually the heavens opened up
and it turned into a down pour.

By this time I thought, “Yeah, might want to
start headin’ back.” A white flash that lit up the Sylvania Sky
confirmed it.

Oh, SH@*&*E&#!!!

Whats wrong with this picture, I’m holding a ten pound metal dumb bell.

All I could think about was what Earl said in the passage above
and the headlines reading in the morning paper, “Man Found Dead
in Lightning Storm Holding Metal Weights.”

Yikes!

Thanks to being in shape and Triple Your Endurance,
I sprinted 2.5 miles in a downpour, hauling weights, while
lightning danced around me.

If you ever think you will never be in a situation where you
need to use your strength and endurance, think again.

This could be the difference between life and death.

Luckily, I assembled some tips and techniques to
get you well on your way to increase energy to get out of any sticky situation…check it out here:

You just never know, this could be what keeps you around
a long, long time.

A dry, healthy and happy,

Wow, what a day.

Last  Thursday I went down to Bowling Green State University and presented
how footballers can shave valuable milliseconds off their reaction time and speed.

The meeting went extremely well.
More on that in a later email.

Anyway, I wanted to share with you a tip I learned
while there. This tip you ‘prolly already know, as I do, but was awesome
to see reinforcement from young athletes.

This tip will enhance your health and vitality.

It keeps the wrinkles away.

It improves your digestion.

It also assists with weight loss.

It washes away chronic headaches.

While I spoke to the young athlete warriors I looked out into the crowd of
70 plus to see huge jugs of water sitting upon the table next to
each person. Close to 90% carried water jugs that looked bigger than a gallon.

Amazing.

They didn’t carry pepsi.

They didn’t carry flavored water.

They didn’t carry milk.

These fit young men know the power of keeping
themselves hydrated properly all day long.

And following our meeting together
they were headed outside for some conditioning
with Coach Tillman.

Made me think of how you might see people in corporate America strutting around w coffee.

These kids were strutting around with their H20.

Now it’s your turn to make drinking
water envogue in your little world.

Your body will love you for it.
Your insurance company and healthcare provider will as well.

And if you cant drink close to a gallon like these muscle bound
men were doing, get in at least 6-8 tall glasses a day.

From the Hydration Warrior,

On Friday I shared “My Really Bad News.”

I appreciate all the concern and letters
sent. One more test and I’ll be
out of the woods.

Until then, let me share the rest
of the stress test story.

With wires and an IV hanging off me, I felt like teh Six Million Dollar man.
I could see the monitor with all the digital readouts–like my actual time
on the treadmill and my heart rate action.

Now from what I’m told the average person
lasts 3-6 minutes on this inclined, speedy rat wheel
before they are pooped.

Basically, you need to get your heart rate to
a max level depending on your age and body weight.

My target was 155. My resting heart rate was 47.

You could see I had my work cut out for me… long way to go.
I learned that healthy hearts take forever to reach
a max rate and an outta shape person is the opposite.

I started on level one. Every three minutes
the treadmill increased and got faster. I had
to start running when we got to the third level.

Every time I applied Triple Your Endurance
my HEART RATE would decline or level off.

When I didn’t apply TYE my heart rate would begin to elevate.
So I thought I’d mess with the nurse as long as I could.

And sure enough after a few seconds of TYE, the heart rate
leveled off after being on level 2. The nurse noticed and
said, “Wow your body is already gettin used to this level.”

The one nurse who prepped me and left
kept returning to see where my heart rate was.
She popped in a few times, “IS he at a 100 yet?”

“NO! He may keep us here until lunchtime.”

The other tech chimed in after a few, “I’ve never seen
the machine up to this level 4 for so long. Hopefully, it holds up.”

I got to 15 minutes on the treadmill and finally reached the max rate.
I had no chest pains and felt great.

The next day, I put myself through my own stress test.
I got up, mowed zee lawn, swam 24 lengths, ran 1.5 miles
on the treadmill, got some muscle exercises in and stretched.

Again, I felt fit as a fiddle. No chest soreness.

You may ask why joke around with such a serious thing.
Maybe it was a way of giving “the system” my middle finger for
even considering a hang-up with my heart. Plus, it was fun to see an
impact on my heart rate by applying these simple secrets.

So consider this: when you can control your heart rate with Triple Your Endurance,
you go “3 times” longer and stronger than the average wilda-beast.

If you want to practice these secrets in your daily
living as well, pick up your copy today and increase
your energy and endurance.

Both you and your heart will be glad you did.

Best to you,

Vince Palko

So I recently had some bad news.

I went in for a routine physical yesterday.
Been about 6-7 years since my last one.
So I thought it would be good to get the “ole check-up
from the knees up.”

Doc asked me some of the usual questions.
Anyone in your family like Mom or Dad have
heart disease, heart attacks cancer, etc?

No, no, no.

“However,” I said, “My two Uncles on my mother’s
side have had heart attacks in their fifties.
To boot, the one Uncle ran every other day
and was extremely fit.”

Well, thats all Doc needed to hear.

He scheduled an in house EKG test.
Heart test for those of you who were clueless, like me.

Ran the test and within a few minutes doc came
back into the room.  Expecting to hear my heart is
like Superman, he gave me some not so good news.

“Your test came back abnormal.”

“Do you see where these lines dip?”

“Yeah.”

“The need to be going north. But this could be
normal for you. Since we don’t have a previous baseline
to go on - we are gonna get you scheduled for
a stress test. If you were to walk into a hospital,
complain of heart burn and show them your EKG,
they’d knock you down and be giving you
the full court press–getting you ready for surgery.”

“Wow.”

“On the other hand this EKG could not be
giving us a proper readout due to your thick
chest muscles,” he said.

Darn you How to Melt Man Boobs in 30 Days program, I thought.
This is one of the only downsides to having a barrel chest.

So I went in to the hospital for my nuclear stress
test today and ….

Tune in next time to hear how I almost broke
the stress test treadmill at the hospital thanks to
another program of mine.

Until then, get a physical scheduled as soon
as you can - and get everything checked out.

Then you will have peace of mind to live a long long time.

Best,

Vince Palko

A couple months ago, I shared
in my private Underground Success newsletter
my bout with allergies that almost took me down.

You see, I decided to dive into a lake
that was more like a cocktail of floating cottonwood because
I was excited to “get my swim on” for the season.

Dumb move.

I’m allergic to pollen and these little
cryptonite snowflakes are packed full of pollen.

I paid drastically the next day.

My palms itched which I later discovered was
my bodies way of signaling anaphylactic shock.

The next several days I was miserable
and even felt my throat swelling.

Initially, I took an allergy pill so my throat wouldnt close up.

Next thing I did was uncover a plethora of resources
to treat the reaction naturally.

As skeptical as I was, within a few days of following
this natural remedy program, my symptoms were gone.

I shared the whole story with my private coaching group
and have tremendous responses from
several of them with similar results.

Now, do you suffer from any kind of allergy?

If so, and you are done treating the symptoms
with over the counter medication, shots or inhalers,
I bring you good news.

Do you hate cardio?

If you are like most folks, you do.

Frankly, I cant blame ya.

How boring is it to walk or run
on a treadmill for hours on end.

Even a half hour is too much.

Your schedule is way too important to be wasting energy like a rat on a wheel.

You are probably just like others who
have a life and cant take up large
chunks of time doing this mundane work.

Well, heres a tip for today.

You dont have to succumb to hamster
on a wheel work when you have a
system that sculpts and tones your
upper body while strengthening
your legs and calves.

I didnt even mention the biggest benefit
which is how your truck tire around
the midsection reduces down to a mere bike tire.

Or less.

Depends on how much you put into
the routines. The choice is yours. The reason is long slow workouts are not as effective to burn belly fat as short fast ones.

At the end of the day,  everyone wants to look good
without sacrificing half your day to get there.

LB Fitness only takes up to fifteen minutes
a day to be effective.

You can do it on the road, in your basement,
out in the hot hot sun. Or take it with you
when you go to the gym.

Take the first step to a thinner, sexkier you by
venturing over to:

You’ll be glad you did!

Well, the winds rushed outta of the city of
Cleveland sails when Lebron uttered the words
“South Beach” in his betrayal speech on ESPN.

Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine
my high school alma mater brother
going anywhere else but his home court.

Never would I also imagine Lebron being
heralded as the black Art Modell.  But thats
just what people ’round town are calling him.

Lastly, never imagined Lebron would degenerate
from Clevelands Savior to Satan in 68 seconds.

Its all mind boggling.

In our lightning paced society of instant messages
and on demand movies, people want
results and they want em now. Even
if they sacrifice a little sweat in the process.
Lebron wants the championship
next year but it wont be as sweet as if hed done
it with HIS own homegrown team.

Yet he has chosen the quick fix path.

Problem is there is now more pressure on him than ever.
Every team will be looking to knock the Heat off.

And there is no guarantee of a championship team
just yet… you do need a bench to come in and help
out when the three are resting.

In news outta Cle, Cavs owner is furious and who wouldnt be when
your team’s value “plummets” 250 million overnight.

Yikes.

As far as my opinion on this goes… as a Cavs fan
and a St.V-M alumn, I’m disappointed Lebron
didnt have enough belief in himself and his former Cleveland
teammates to make it to the championship on his own ala Jordan
back in the 80-90s.

But here we are as the winds of change blow through
the city on the Lake.   So long Lebron… Im not burning your jersey
but at the same time I’m also not proud to say
I share St. V-M’s Hall of Fame with you anymore.
I cant say I’ll follow you when you are in Miami.

My heart stays in Cleveland.

Best,

Vince Palko
