ROYERSFORD, Pa. (PRWEB)
November 09, 2019

Strength Conditioning Expert and CEO of the BARWIS™ companies, Mike Barwis, has joined forces with Jason Griggs and Matt Cubbler to launch eForceTM – a state-of-the-art training system designed for athletes at every level.

Already used by the Pittsburgh Steelers and Detroit Red Wings, eForce is a line of eccentric strength training equipment. This patented, state-of-the-art, computer-controlled, mechanical device is attachable to any squat or half-rack and offers the ability to offload a precise amount of weight from the weight bar in both the eccentric and concentric motion of every repetition. This loading/off-loading allows for maximal neural recruitment to muscle fibers of the targeted muscles.

The incredible and unique capability of eForce equipment not only facilitates the development of new muscle fiber but also increases bone density. Proper use can improve the function and stability of the targeted areas of the body in less time and with better results than traditional methodologies. In addition to building stronger athletes, the eForce system also puts less wear and tear on the joints and connective tissue, leading to an increase in performance and reduction in the risk of injury.

“While the focus on sports science, athlete safety and athlete development is at an all-time high at every level of sport, we saw a glaring deficiency in the strength training equipment market space,” said Cubbler. “As a result, we developed and patented the eForce technology to ensure that every athletic program can provide their athletes and coaches with the most advanced and scientific strength training equipment available.”

Understanding the incredible value of leveraging eccentric loading in training, Jason, Matt and Mike spent several years together designing this precision equipment with the intent of changing the industry of strength and conditioning. The eForce system is the second iteration of the technology, having evolved from the original design of the Maxout Tower.

“The eForce has revolutionized eccentric training,” said Mike Barwis. “It’s functionality and efficacy is unmatched in the performance training market. It is a staple in our eccentric training protocols for the Professional and Olympic teams and athletes we train.”

“Combining the power of the BARWIS™ Brands with our established partnerships with such iconic brands as the Pittsburgh Steelers was vital to the success of eForceTM Strength,” said Griggs.

eForce Strength currently holds two issued patents with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The eForce technology is being sold to high schools, colleges, universities, professional sports teams, and in privately owned gyms and training facilities across the country. The company’s goal is to positively impact and change the lives of every person who uses their technology.

TAMPA, Fla. (PRWEB)

Tampa-based natural products innovator, Nourigen Labs announced their commitment to helping women defy the clock with the launch of their latest dietary supplement breakthrough, AgelessLX®.

AgelessLX® is a powerful combination of ingredients formulated exclusively for women. The product blends the 5x patented compound, Calcium HMB (a natural metabolite of the amino acid leucine) with biotin, horsetail extract, vitamins D3 and K2. These targeted, clinically tested ingredients were strategically and purposefully selected to improve the visible effects of aging.

AgelessLX® supports the most common visible signs women face as they mature by increasing muscle strength, increasing fat loss, improving body composition, reducing fine facial lines and wrinkles, boosting energy and endurance, while promoting thicker, stronger hair and nails.

While AgelessLX® alone serves as a woman’s main defense against the clock, Nourigen Labs coupled the product with a digital lifestyle program kit called the Ageless Transformations™ Health Reset Program. This companion program to the AgelessLX® dietary product provides crucial tools, education and a step-by-step roadmap to help women discover how beneficial changes in their nutrition, fitness, stress, sleep and relationships enhance their health in ways they can see and feel.

This innovative, breakthrough program includes 60 distinct daily workouts, 3 unique nutrition plans, curated fitness equipment, and a private online community where women support one another through their shared program experiences. Led by an all-woman, expert clinical faculty, the online course integrates the latest scientific research on aging with deep clinical education to help women live vibrantly.

“Consumers spend a lot of money on nutritional supplements, and very few can say with confidence that their health has changed for the better as a result,” says Nourigen Labs VP of Product Innovation, Michele Drielick. “We want to push the industry toward a new level of accountability for results that consumers can actually see, feel and measure.”

Dr. Robert Sheeler a practicing physician and former Editor of the Mayo Clinic Health Letter assisted Nourigen Labs in the formulation of AgelessLX®. “The research behind AgelessLX® is extremely compelling, and I believe it’s one of the few products in the anti-aging space that actually produces a noticeable effect”, he says. “Combined with the targeted education program our team has developed around it, this has the potential to meaningfully impact the vitality of women across the US. I hope other natural product companies follow the example being set by Nourigen Labs – both in their commitment to research and to producing real results for consumers.”

The AgelessLX® product and Ageless Transformations Health Reset Program are available at AgelessLX.com.

Celebrating the region’s notorious wine, parmesan and olive oil are akin to the sun coming up every day, but this tour goes a step beyond with standout itinerary highlights including:

• Apprentice-style cooking lessons to bring home. In Bologna, learn how to make pasta, eat your creation for dinner and tour a family-run balsamic vinegar villa.

“Bologna is one of my favorite food cities on the planet. The fresh pasta is so good, especially filled pasta like tortellini, which travelers will learn to make on this trip. Some of Italy’s most famous ingredients, including balsamic vinegar, come from the regions featured on this tour,” says Jack Bishop, Chief Creative Officer, America’s Test Kitchen. “We’re so excited to participate in this unique culinary and travel experience and to provide information and recipes that will help travelers continue the experience back in their home kitchens.”

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
November 07, 2019

The Government of India has released a special commemorative coin in the amount of Rs 125 to commemorate the 125th birth anniversary of Paramahansa Yogananda. Born on January 5, 1893 in Gorakpur, India, Sri Yogananda, author of the best-selling spiritual classic Autobiography of a Yogi, is widely regarded today as the father of Yoga in the West. The coin release was presided over by India Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Tuesday, October 29, 2019 at the Central Secretariat in New Delhi.

During the official release, the Finance Minister acknowledged Paramahansa Yogananda’s universal message of world harmony among all humankind, and said, “India feels strongly about this great son of the universe who brought harmony to all our hearts and minds.”

Joining the Finance Minister at the event was Minister of State for Finance Anurag Thakur; Culture Secretary Arun Goel; Brother Vishwananda, a member of the Self-Realization Fellowship/Yogoda Satsanga Society of India Board of Directors; and Swami Smaranananda, YSS Vice President.

Brother Vishwananda conveyed a message from SRF/YSS President Brother Chidananda, who said, “Paramahansaji sought to spread a spirit of brotherhood among all peoples based on the eternal truth that we are the children of one God, and need to live in friendship, peace, and harmony for our mutual well-being. He also emphasized the importance of seeing the divine in every soul and every living thing; and treating all of God’s creation with respect and reverence.…The release of this commemorative coin by the honorable Finance Minister is a timely recognition of a milestone in the journey of humanity toward this goal of realizing the divine Self in all hearts of all beings.”

Since 1964, when India issued its first commemorative coin—to honor India’s first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru—India has honored a wide range of political, social, and religious leaders with commemorative coins, ranging from Mahatma Gandhi to Rabindranath Tagore.

The commemorative coin honoring Paramahansa Yogananda marks the third time that the Government of India has paid tribute to him. In 1977, on the occasion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of Paramahansa Yogananda’s passing, the Government of India formally recognized his outstanding contributions to the spiritual upliftment of humanity, by issuing a commemorative stamp in his honor.

In March of 2017, a second commemorative stamp was issued by the Indian Government, acknowledging the centenary of of Yogoda Satsanga Society of India (the organization that Yogananda founded in 1917), and citing the outstanding spiritual achievements of the society.

The commemorative coin, which will bear the likeness of Paramahansa Yogananda, will weigh 35 grams and contain the following metal composition: silver 50%, copper 40%, nickel 5%, and zinc 5%.

Paramahansa Yogananda (1893-1952), who founded Self-Realization Fellowship in 1920, is widely regarded as one of the preeminent spiritual figures of our time. He has made an indelible impression on the spiritual landscape of the West, contributing to a far greater awareness and appreciation of India’s ancient philosophy of Yoga and its science of meditation. His best-selling spiritual classic, Autobiography of a Yogi, has introduced millions of readers to yoga meditation, and his highly acclaimed interpretations of the Bhagavad Gita (God Talks With Arjuna), the four Gospels (The Second Coming of Christ: The Resurrection of the Christ Within You), and the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (Wine of the Mystic: A Spiritual Interpretation), provide groundbreaking insight into the underlying unity of the religious beliefs of East and West.

Born in northern India on January 5, 1893, Sri Yogananda took formal vows as a monk of India’s venerable monastic Swami Order soon after graduating from Calcutta University in 1915. Two years later, he began his life’s work with the founding of a “how-to-live” school where modern educational methods were combined with yoga training and instruction in spiritual ideals.

In 1920, he was invited as the Indian delegate to an International Congress of Religious Liberals convening in Boston. That same year he founded Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF), an international society dedicated to introducing throughout the world his yoga meditation teachings, and to helping people of all races and creeds to realize and express more fully in their lives the beauty, nobility, and divinity of the human spirit.

Next year, Self-Realization Fellowship—which has more than 600 temples, centers and ashrams around the world (another 200 ashrams and centers are in India and neighboring countries under the auspices of Yogoda Satsanga Society, Sri Yogananda’s work in India), and SRF/YSS members in over 175 countries—will celebrate its 100th year anniversary.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
November 06, 2019

Celebrity personal trainer Scott Yonehiro, Founder of SY Performance in Los Angeles is documenting his journey back to optimal fitness after intentionally gaining 50 lbs. for his new web series, “The 180° In 90.” The series is streaming on YouTube at: http://www.youtube.com/c/scottyonehiro

The daily YouTube series was created by Yonehiro, who specializes in helping film and television stars get into excellent physical shape for their roles. However, “The 180° In 90” was designed with a different audience in mind.

Yonehiro, who is in his late 40’s, said that he was inspired to create the series, which follows him as he attempts to lose 50 pounds over 90 days, by men his age, who are struggling to get back into shape as they get older. “It seemed as if all advertisements for men my age were promoting medicine for hair loss, supposed miracle weight loss supplements, or treatments for erectile dysfunction. All of these products are designed to temporarily make men feel better about aging,” he said.

“In order to truly feel better as we get older, we need to be physically fit. We need the regular blast of endorphins that exercising provides, we need the increased mental acuity that exercise affords, we need the cardiovascular benefits to prevent heart disease, and we need to take action to prevent bone loss. The myriad mental and physical health benefits of getting in shape, especially over the age of 40, are too important to ignore,” Yonehiro added.

Yonehiro is candid with his audience, experiencing temporary weight gains on camera, and admitting that getting into shape at age 48, is far more challenging than it was in his 20’s. “I’m sore. I took 9 months off from exercising, and I ate whatever I wanted to gain this weight. Now I’m trying to get it off, and it’s challenging. I understand why men and women in their 40’s are reluctant to go back to the gym,” he said.

“The reality is, those of us over 40 who are heading back to the gym aren’t going to feel like we did after a workout in our 20’s. It’s tough. But we can choose to feel aches and pains because we’re working out and doing something wonderful for ourselves, or we can feel sore and achy as the result of our bodies breaking down with age. It is our choice,” Yonehiro explained.

“The 180° In 90” chronicles Yonehiro’s weight loss, fat loss, and muscle gain, in real time. Yonehiro also shares exactly what he eats every day, and details all supplements he takes, on his journey to get back into shape. The series, which debuted on October 4, 2019 quickly attracted a loyal following, in part because Yonehiro provides frequent health tips, brings viewers into his kitchen as he preps food, and to the supermarket as he shops for meals.

Thirty days into his 90-day journey, Yonehiro has lost 15 lbs., and reduced his body fat from 24.1% to 19.9%.

“I’m hoping that following my journey shows other men and women my age, that it never is too late to get back into shape. I’m not suggesting that viewers need to lose the same amount, in the same timeline. I just want everyone to know that it can be done. You can completely transform your body, and your overall health relatively quickly even in middle age.”

About Scott Yonehiro

Scott Yonehiro is a celebrity personal trainer based in Los Angeles. The creator of “The 180° In 90,” Yonehiro is also the founder of SY Performance (SYP) which provides cutting-edge training techniques to bring out the ‘Elite Business Athlete’ that lies within each individual.

Guest: Mary Carolyn, certified personal trainer, nutritionist, yoga instructor, Science Cheerleader

Sharon Kleyne, founder and research director of Bio Logic Aqua Research Water Life Science, the only research center in the world that is exclusively devoted to the study of body water evaporation and evaporation of water of the earth and solar system uses her weekly talk radio program to educate people everywhere about the real global water crisis that threatens life.

Kleyne, who shares every week on her talk radio show, The Sharon Kleyne Hour Water Life Science®/Nature’s Pharma®, The Power of Water® & Your Health sponsored by Nature’s Tears® EyeMist® on VoiceAmerica sponsored by Global Dragon TV and produced by Rose Hong, that we are all walking sponges and must drink 8-to-10 glasses of water a day one full glass at a time, recently welcomed guest Mary Carolyn to the show.

Carolyn is a former professor of math, statistics and research at the University of Maryland and George Mason University and worked as a senior statistician in human space flight for the U.S. Department of Transportation. Currently, Carolyn is a nutrition expert, certified personal trainer, RYT200 Yoga professional, certified Pilates trainer and corporate instructor in group fitness.

Carolyn, whose training is in plant-based nutrition, claims that variety and hydration are most important in a healthy diet. “Eat seasonally,” she urges, “and remember that the most colorful vegetables are the healthiest.” Carolyn encourages people to grow gardens but that it is all right to use frozen vegetables, “a second-best alternative to farm-fresh veggies”. Carolyn also says that people can easily learn how to grow healthy herbs such as cilantro and parsley.

Kleyne observes that more people are taking the world water crisis seriously but that there is so much work to do. “Not enough people know how to protect the water,” Kleyne cautions. “More people need to study evaporation and finding cures for diseases by using common sense.”
