Help Me Putt – Easy Way To Create A Consistent Putting Stroke
Help Me Putt – Easy Way To Create A Consistent Putting Stroke
Do you have what they call the ‘yips’ when it is your turn on the green? A fear when you grip that putter because you have no clue if you will push or pull the putt?
The fact is that you can become a good putter even if you don’t believe it yet. You just need to address the fundamental issue of creating a consistent putting stroke. The way to do so is not by going out and buying the latest putter for $300, or by practicing the same way you’ve been doing. Here is a simple method that will remove technical thoughts about putting during your round of golf because you have already grooved in a consistent and reliable stroke with your putter. Do this on the practice green before your game or in the comfort of your living room during television commercials and feel yourself get more confident with short putts. Sink more putts that matter on the golf course and see your scores and handicap drop.
The Easy Way To Create A Consistent Putting Stroke
Choose a hole on a relatively flat section. Set up two clubs parallel to each other 3 feet from the hole such that they form a narrow path pointing at the pin. The space in between the clubs form a trough that should be sufficient for the width of your putter.
Place a ball between the two clubs, using any marking aids to align it towards the hole if that is what you would normally do during the game.
Take your normal putting stance and posture and practice putting the ball to the hole, keeping your putter within the guidelines of the trough on the way back and forward. Focus on making a smooth swing until you consistently find the cup.
When you feel yourself getting used to putting along the correct path, lengthen the distance by a foot. Go through the same routine and increase the distance by a foot each time till you confidently sink 6 feet putts.
Use This Method In Other Places Too
This simple method is not confined to being used on the practice green. Utilise it in the office or at home whenever you have some free time by setting up towards a round target such as a coin or small saucer as the hole. Whether you can commit only 5 minutes a day to practice in the office before a meeting, or half an hour at the practice green, this method is an easy way to develop a reliable putting stroke that will remove your fears on the green.
The putter is one of the most important clubs in the golf bag because once you get onto the green, your confidence with the putter determines whether you can save par or three putt for bogey. It is possible to make putting the strongest part of your game by devoting some time and effort …
Nutrition For Nursing Mothers
Managing children’s nutrition can be a bit of a juggling act. This is unfortunate because there are numerous studies that support the successes obtained from healthy lifestyles combined with supplementation as a means of preventing degenerative diseases such as heart disease, cancer, stroke, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, osteoporosis, arthritis and obesity.\n\nYou can also make healthy eating fun by getting other family members involved and by going to farmer’s markets if they’re available in your area. All food is made up of three macronutrients: fat, protein, and carbohydrates. For my well-being, diet nutrition supplements are a vital part of my diet, because they provide added nutrients that turn into energy and body building support.
\n\nFresh foods such as fruits and vegetables and water are also beneficial to your oral health by making you use your teeth and gums to chew and to initiate saliva production. The remainder of the total calories in each diet was supplied by fat. As a matter of fact, these are the times when our bodies need more food to have an uninterrupted stream of nutrients that are needed for increased metabolic demands.\n\nFats are the carbon and hydrogen atoms in our food, structuring hydrogenation. These are lower in calories and carbohydrates, so will still provide you with some, but won’t have you overdoing it and not seeing fat loss progress as a result. Fitness & nutrition go hand in hand, pointless doing all that hard work then going home to eat the wrong food.
\n\nSubjects were allowed to eat as much as they wanted of the high protein diet. We are fortunate to have such a wonderful advocate for healthy eating here in Australia, far from her native country of Scotland. Every day we participate in a ritualistic demonstration of our connection to all existence by eating.…
Coffee and Your Health – Can Coffee Help Prevent a Stroke?
Coffee and Your Health – Can Coffee Help Prevent a Stroke?
While attending college my English professor actually allowed us to pick a subject, and write a 2,000 to 3,000 word essay that would extoll the virtue of our chosen subject. I gave it some consideration, and at the campus coffee shop, decided that since i had a near addiction to coffee, it was the ideal subject.
I was astounded by the rather large amount of significant study that had been done on medical benefits derived from drinking a single serving of coffee each morning. Having narrowed my search parameters, I selected those benefits in stroke reduction for a study group ranging in age from age 35 to age 65. It appears that this group receives marginally more benefit than other age groups. The benefits outlined as most significant were that stroke reduction can be accomplished by reducing blood pressure, stress, and plaque buildup in the arteries.
Coffee serves these needs in a most unique way. Coffee reduces stress by acting as a very mild depressant. Coffee is also beneficial in reducing blood pressure, by contributing to blood thinning. It is known that if you exercise, and keep your blood circulation rate high through strenuous exercise, your body heats, sweats, and you generally feel warm. Coffee when absorbed provides the same effect on a very temporary basis. After exercise, you remain overheated for approximately 45 min to 1 hour.
Drinking a single cup of coffee will provide that same warm feeling for 20 to 30 minutes, just with less exertion. The part of this that you do not see it the part that actually does the work. The caffeine will be absorbed by the body, enter the bloodstream in microscopic amounts, and act as a very mild blood thinner. This in effect makes it easier for the blood to flow, around plaque buildups that naturally occur in every human being, beginning from the time we are born.
Making the blood thinner reduces pressure on the heart, arteries and veins. Reducing the pressure, reduces chance of stroke. This rather simple deduction, although startling in itself, is the best solution for the majority, because we all just naturally dread the thought of being hospitalized, having a qualified physician telling us that to avoid stroke (in the future), we must basically rearrange our lives to reduce stress, control our blood pressure, eat a more healthy diet, avoid salty and fatty foods, and the list of change seems endless. Drinking coffee one or two times a day seems like such a simple thing to do to avoid all that, and possibly some life changing experience, I wonder why it has never been widely published before.

Cultured, Whole Food Vitamins And Supplements
As we lead busy fast paced lives we often come home and reach for the processed foods because they are quick and easy to make. Science having researched for so long the biochemistry of nutrition, we have became conscious of an incredible ability of each of the 10-100 trillion cells in our body to integrate, as in symphony, an unimaginably complex series of events that optimizes health and minimizes disease.\n\nBy consuming whole food vitamins, you can supplement your regular diet with much-needed minerals and nutrients that are missing from many processed foods. Better known as vitamin C, L-ascorbic acid is perhaps the most popular of supplements, and has been used to treat disease ever since the French explorer Jacques Cartier boiled the needles of the arbor vitae tree to treat scurvy in 1536.\n\nIt is nearly unreasonable to add these healthy components to a diet only to extract 10% of the actual benefits. Health supplements that contain the full roster of eight B-Vitamins are called Vitamin B Complex supplements. Assuming it is manufactured with due regard for the time of harvest, it contains all 59 of the trace elements needed by the body, vitamins, amino acids, taurine, omega 3 & 6 fish oils and it is the highest natural source of the trace element zinc.
\n\nWhole food supplements are the best daily vitamin supplements you can use. Unfortunately, most commercially available nutritional supplements including vitamins, minerals and herbal products are made completely of single ingredient extracts or worse, artificially synthesized in a lab using chemical processes.
\n\nThis is a much more natural and beneficial method of obtaining nutrition from food and herbal supplements alike. Nutrients from isolated vitamins and supplements are not adequate for our dietary requirements because they lack the cofactors and micronutrients needed and are not recognized by our bodies as food.…
How to Putt Better by Building Confidence on the Greens
How to Putt Better by Building Confidence on the Greens
We all want to build confidence on the greens and start draining our putts, but no one once to put the time in, and when I say time I mean practice. No one goes to the range to work on their putting stroke, we all go there to smash balls as far as we can. Its funny though because if you really want to drop your handicap fast, the best way to do that is to learn how to putt better.
I have a great exercise that is fun that we are all able to do no matter what your skill level is. Get your putter and your ball, because that is all your going to need and head on down to the practice green at the range or closest club. It would be great if you where able to go at a time when it is not to busy because you are going to use one hole the entire time.
Do you have a pre putt routine like the pros do, because you are going to need it for this drill. The point of this is to be comfortable on the greens and within your putting stroke, the best way to do that is to keep doing the same thing over and over and you will surly learn how to putt better. You should have your pre putt routine down after this exercise. Start with an easier hole location if you can and over time increase the difficulty.
So instead of going around the world you are going to go around the clock. Not just once, but one and a half times. Place your ball a foot away from the cup and we will call that one o’clock, go through your pre putt routine and then putt away. If you don not sink the putt that’s OK. Putt it out remembering to use your pre putt routine. Now that you have sunk the putt I want you to go to two o’clock but this time you will place the ball two feet away from the cup. Do this eighteen times just as if you where playing around of golf, each time getting farther and farther away from the hole so at the end you will be eighteen feet away and at six o’clock. You will have putted a full round of golf. The goal, to never three putt. Thirty six is the magic number you are looking for. Once you are able to repeat this consistently find a harder hole location.
If this exercise doesn’t teach you how to putt better and start building confidence in your putting stroke while you are on the greens, I don’t know what will. Enjoy yourself, which is easy to do when you start draining putts from everywhere one the putting surface. And remember to use your pre putt routine every single time.…
Nutrition On A Budget
There are many ways to balance the chakras. Undernutrition is of the greatest nutritional problem that stricken mostly people in the rural areas and some of those who went to the city in search of greener pasture. Why is it that people today are so interested in losing weight, yet they have no interest in learning the proper and healthy way of doing it. Have we gotten so lazy that we only want a quick temporary fix, ie Fad diet?\n\nIf you still encounter resistance then why not use the food pyramid as the basis for a meal time star chart to reward good eating – even young children can grasp the concept behind it and they all love earning stickers and getting presents. (PS: I hate the word “diet.” Notice what the first three letters of diet spell.:) Instead focus on changing your eating and drinking habits, instead of bouncing back and forth between diets.\n\nWhen you cannot seem to think of ‘that word’ to finish your sentence or when you have that “2:30” feeling and all you want to do is Nothing, these experiences could all have been avoided by simply eating foods that are alive with vital nutrients. This is one of the few times that you want a “high-GI” carbohydrate source (high-GI carbohydrates are synonymous to sugary or insulin spiking foods, such as white bread or sugar).\n\nHigh-protein diets are suited for persons who lift weights for body building. This nutritional problem is now in an alarming rise in diet-related chronic disease such as type II diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases and several diet-related cancers.
\n\nSome nutritional facts that should be very well understood and kept in practice for maintaining a healthy diet plans are the nutrition label details. We are talking about fruits, vegetables, meat, and less of the junk foods. It may not be a fashionable thing to say, but we, as parents, have a responsibility to educate our children about healthy eating and to enstill good eating habits from an early age.

The Health Benefits Of “Whole Food” Nutrition
Certain proteins called enzymes play an active role in digestion by acting as a catalyst for chemical reactions. Eating more frequently – Creating a bodybuilding nutrition plan starts by eating a lot of foods that are healthy by nature. Tryglycerides, another kind of lipid, form the fats and oils of the body. Carbohydrates are incredibly important to sustained, healthy energy.\n\nBut if you can ignore the hype, you will find that the benefits for a young child of a healthy, varied diet can be huge. Fats provide us energy with fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. Proteins also provides hormone metabolism, healthy skin, prevents excessive loss of heat and protects our internal organs.\n\nA toddler or pre-school age child needs a wide variety of each of the four main food groups: Milk and dairy, meat, fish and poultry, fruit and vegetables and carbohydrates (bread, rice, pasta and potatoes). There is considerable debate among experts about what is the best ratio of protein, carbohydrates, and fat.
\n\nMany people fear eating too many eggs because because they’re high in cholesterol, which has been believed to increase the risk of heart disease. When you’re seeking fat loss, you’ll want to limit those carbohydrates to right before and after the workout period when you need the most energy, and then after that, turn to fibrous sources of carbohydrates such as vegetables.\n\nWhen people are not guided on their nutritional plans, the tendency that is they assume that eating less is always the best option when working out, especially when they are trying to lose weight. Eating a variety of fruits, vegetables and whole grains is a good starting point.

The Secret To Optimum Nutrition
The reason why whole food supplements have started quickly gaining popularity is because many people are finally beginning to educate themselves on the supplements they’re taking and how their bodies process them. Whole food vitamins are complete. Whole food nutritional supplements are not just the isolated nutrients you find in a vitamin pill or a mineral supplement. Better absorption of this naturally produced calcium for healthy bones and teeth. This was discovered because more and more pre-prepared, highly processed food products became available and nutritional deficiencies began to emerge.\n\nWhole food supplements are nutritional products which have been manufactured directly from food. Very few people nowadays follow a balanced diet and have the recommended 8 servings of whole grains, seeds, nuts and vegetables required every day. As there is inadequate supervision of the pharmaceutical and food production industries, there is even less of the nutritional supplement market.\n\nBy eating a healthy diet, we are able to extract the necessary balance of vitamins, minerals, fats, and energy sources needed to keep our bodies running the way they were intended to work. Natural food complex supplements are typically of a low dose until now.
\n\nCancer researchers at UCLA found that people who eat foods containing certain flavonoids appear to be virtually immune to lung cancer. Without synergists – cofactors existent within the whole food complex, the body continues to be starved of micronutrients needed for healing, repair and prevention.

Alternatively, an organic whole food vitamin supplement contains mineral-rich food sources and homeopathic mineral ingredients to make them much easier to digest and absorb.…
Super Vitamins
The food supplement business is booming. As our diet has changed from an agrarian society’s nutrient rich food supply to the urbanized highly processed, artificial foods, our total food consumption has risen. Whole foods are more than the sum of the nutrients they contain. During the 4 years of the study, researchers found that the closer people followed the so called “Mediterranean diet”, the less likely they were to die from either heart disease or cancer.
\n\nPeople love the ease of taking pills and multivitamins, but if they would just be intentional about grabbing an organic piece of raw fruit or a raw vegetable for a snack every day, they could largely reduce their need for supplements of any kind. As with a lot of the vitamins, Vitamin E is the collective name for a set of related tocopherols and their corresponding tocotrienols, which have been tied to colon, heart, prostate and immune system health.\n\nShaklee’s children’s vitamins include Incredivites which are tasty chewable multivitamin supplements designed to be loved by kids. Because these vitamins come from food they outperform other vitamin forms and are completely safe. When trying to decide which type of vitamin to use it is important to understand the difference between vitamins and supplements made with whole food ingredients and regular vitamins made from chemicals produced in a laboratory.\n\nThe problem with many of these studies, far too many in my opinion, is that the studies don’t declare whether they were done with whole food vitamins or synthetic vitamins. Eating vitamin and mineral-rich foodstuffs is a fantastic way of complimenting your diet with natural essentials.\n\nWhole food supplements will contain not only alpha-tocopherol but also the 7 other alpha, beta, gamma and delta forms of both tocopherol and tocotrienol derived from concentrated food. Healthy meals are often forsaken for the ease of fat-laden fast food and the convenience ingredients found on the shelves of the local supermarket lack many of the essential vitamins and minerals your body needs.

Vitamin B Benefits
Vitamin B Benefits
There are so many benefits that come from a health supply of B vitamins to the body, it’s hard to list them all. Science discovers new benefits on a regular basis. One of the reasons that new discoveries are being made is because B vitamins are actually a family of vitamins, rather than a single nutrient. You actually need each and every one in the family.
What do each of the B vitamins do for you? Let’s take a look.
Vitamin B1, or Thiamin, is essential for proper nerve cell function. This means it is really important for your brain and mental functions such as memory. Thiamin also helps keep all the cells in your body functioning properly and helps create energy from the food you consume. Vitamin B2, or Riboflavin, is a powerhouse nutrient essential for releasing energy from the food you eat. It helps your body grow normally, enables healthy red blood cell formation, and even assists in the production of many of your body’s hormones.
Vitamin B3, or Niacin, takes part in over 50 different processes in your body. This includes some of the processes covered previously, as well detoxifying chemicals in your body. Vitamin B5, or Pantothenic acid, works alongside the other B vitamins to help break down the components of food into energy. Vitamin B6, also called Pyridoxine, is essential as is moves around amino acids to make the thousands of different types of proteins found in your body.
Vitamin B7, called Biotin, is involved in many of the food-to-energy process in the body like the other B vitamins. You’ll sometimes hear Biotin referred to as Vitamin H. Vitamin B9 is also referred to as Folic acid, and this nutrient’s main job is to help your cells grow and divide as intended. It helps your body with mood and helps keep arteries open. Finally, Vitamin B12, referred to also as Cobalamin, helps your body create energy from food and protects nerve cells.
It’s clear that the B vitamin family is essential for good health. Make sure you get all of them in their proper amounts and you’ll not only protect your health, but you’ll feel great also.…
