By Josef Brandenburg

Priding myself on being one of Washington, DC's top personal trainers, I have made it my life's work to help others to get healthy. Sometimes this task can seem extremely overwhelming without someone to support and guide you. We all have an idea of what exercises are good and what exercises are bad, but what happens when it comes to food? There are so many conflicting reports, no fat, no carbs, low fat, fruitarian, vegetarian, vegan, its enough to make your head spin! Thankfully, you don't have to worry. You have Washington, DC's top personal trainer to guide you in the right direction! Here are my top five fitness foods for you to focus on in your quest to a healthy existence.

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: This is my favorite side dish as I am sure many others would agree. It tastes great; it is high in protein and extremely versatile. Try it crumbled in a favorite salad or next to your egg white omelet in the morning.

3. Berries: Not only are they a great tasting replacement for your usual boring breakfast of cereal and toast, guaranteed to make your taste buds happy, they are considered the number 1 super food. You just cannot go wrong with them no matter which you choose strawberries, blackberries, blueberries or raspberries. The choice is yours they are chock full of vitamins not to mention healthy phytochemicals and anti oxidants. On top of all of that, even though when they are ripe they are really sweet, they are low in sugar and great for you!

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: Not only is shrimp high in protein and low in calories and fat, with just 112 calories per 4 oz. serving, but also, it is packed with vitamins such as vitamin D for strong bones, b12 for increased energy, the antioxidant selenium. What more could you ask for?

Well, there you have it. You have just found out this Washington, DC's top personal trainers list of 5 super foods. Incorporate these into your diet and you will be doing your body and your health a great service. Your taste buds will also thank you along the way. - 17274
