Washington, DC Personal Trainer Reveals His Top Five Fitness Foods

By Josef Brandenburg

I take pride in being one of Washington, DC's top personal trainers. Getting other people healthy is my life's work. Although without help and support, this can seem overwhelming at times. We have all heard of good exercises and bad exercises, but what about food? With all the conflicting reports out there, low fat, no fat, no carbs, vegetarian, fruitarian, it can get your head spinning! With Washington, DC's top personal trainer, choosing the right direction is done for you. Below I have listed the top five foods you should focus on to have a healthy life.

1. Grass Fed Beef: If the fact that this is 1st on the list surprises you due to the high fat content of beef then please remember that not all beef is created equal. More important than what you eat is what your food ate before it became your food. Grass fed beef is low in saturated fats yet packed with healthy omega-3fatty acids, fat burning CLA and protein, not to mention it tastes great.

2. Turkey Bacon: One of my favorite side dishes. Besides tasting great, it is high in protein and very versatile. Paired with an egg white omelet or crumbled in a salad I think you will find it very tasty.

3. Berries: Sweet and wonderful. Whether they are strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, they are considered a number one super food. Packed with vitamins, anti oxidants and healthy phytochemicals. Funny thing is that they are relatively low in sugar, when they are ripe taste as sweet as the sweetest candy. A great suggestion is to stop eating that nutrient deficient cereal and toast for breakfast and try replacing it with a bowl of sweet berries for breakfast instead. They are so much better for you and will wake up your boring taste buds as well. Try it once and I can guarantee you'll never look back.

4. Spinach: It is packed with beta-carotene to aid in the prevention of cataracts, Vitamin C to boost the immune system and leutin to help protect against macular degeneration. With all that going for it, I would say Popeye knew a good thing when he saw it! Try this for a day and see if you think your deprived have a spinach omelet for breakfast, spinach salad for lunch and grass-fed beef with a side of spinach for dinner. I think you will be quite satisfied.

5. Shrimp: Shrimp is the only lean protein that is ready to be served in less than two minutes. Just listen to this list of the vitamins in shrimp, vitamin d for healthy bones, vitamin b12 for energy, selenium as an antioxidant, high in protein, low in fat and calories. A 4oz serving only has 112 calories, how perfect is that?

Being one of Washington, DC's top personal trainers, I am confident that you will get a wealth of benefits from trying the top five super foods I have listed above. Not only will your taste buds thank you but also you will be doing a lot of good for your body and your health. - 17274
