    Directors Desk

    Whilst sitting at my desk writing this article I thought tomyself, what happened to the December break and the fewdays holiday we took. It seems so far away almost like itnever happened.

    We reopened on the 7thJanuary 2008 to the most amazing

    response to an advertising and promotion campaign weundertook.

    Step into Life and Womens Health, a brand new womenshealth publication joined forces in a promotion to offer theirreaders the opportunity to trial Step into Life classes and tofind out first hand who we are and what we have to offer.

    The publication hit the streets on the 7thof January and our

    telephones and the web site have gone nuts

    All our state offices have been inundated with inquiries andour franchisees have all been extremely busy booking in andaccommodating all the leads that have been passed on tothem.

    I am sure you have all seen new faces at class and I have nodoubt you will all give them a warm Step into Life welcome

    and make them feel part of our wonderful group.

    Operating a business can be very challenging at times andalso very rewarding. An e mail was sent to our Head Officethe other day and reading it reaffirmed why Step into Life issuch a great business to be in and why we cant speak highlyenough of our State Managers our Franchisees and all thepeople involved in the day today operations of Step into Lifearound the country.

    Id like to share this e mail with you (I have taken out a fewwords in the e mail to maintain privacy)

    Local NewsTIME FOR A CHANGESIL Keys 3 year anniversary was 1stFeb, party will be in April.

    Theres a lot of things that are changing in Keysie thismonth, the needs for goals and preparation for winter havemade this possible. Also with the help of Larry Cohern (co-founder of SIL Australia) you will see these changes happenfrom the start of March. As change is different and not manypeople like change, I ask that you trust your personal trainerand Step into Life ,for these changes are for YOU. Be patientand see the results in 3 months.Most changes you will see at sessions as they will be run

    differently by all the trainers.But here are some: Cardio sessions you will no longer know what you

    are in for (so keep your walkman/ipod & boxinggloves ready for all cardio sessions)

    Toning sessions will now have a 3 week turnaround for weights and 2 weeks for both bands andfitballs ~ see timetable.

    Fitness Categories will be changed and will nolonger deal with time per kilometre, so watch out, ifyou were a 4 you may now very well be a 6.

    Road Route sessions will be run differently as thereis more endurance & fat burning training to getdifferent results.

    There are permant kickboxing sessions onSaturday mornings at 7am (8am in April), but beprepared for surprised kickboxing sessions at othercardios.

    Sessions that have really low numbers will bechanging in April, so March is BRING A FRIENDMONTH extra incentives available.

    Frequency of training - (eg. 3 sessions a week) Intensity of our training is always there! Time of sessions will now be 50min to 1hr. Type of training will change so that we are

    increasing your endurance.

    Timetable ChangesLater session times on Saturday mornings will occur in April(8am for cardio, 9am for toning)

    NEW ROTATION OF TONING SESSIONS & KICKBOXING

    Stretch n Flex begins in March

    This is a package for March, if all goes well it willbecome a permanent session for April onwardsForms will be available last week of Feb for details.

    BootCamps begin in April and will be on Sunday evenings,forms will become available in Mid March.

    Next Fitness Tests is April 7thand 12th.

    Be appreciative of these wonderful trainers and people as they put a lot of time and effort into planningand rolling out what they do.

This will give me more time toconcentrate on current and past members, for your goal tracking and increase the time spent on yououtside of sessions.

    Between September 08 and Jan 09 a Knox franchise will open, from there on a full time admin employeewill keep up with all our admin needs (the newsletter will always be on time!) and our trainers will move tofull time roles so that we dont miss a thing hence improving the quality of the service we give to ourmembers.

    This means more social events for each franchise.

    This also means there will be more bootcamps, stretch n flex and fun run training packages combinedbetween the 3 franchises.The buying power of the franchises will increase which means better member benefits.

    Health & Fitness ArticleThe Heart's Function

    Cardiovascular system

    The cardiovascular system of the body has threecomponents:

    1. The heart (cardiac muscle)2. The blood vessels3. The blood

    The cardiovascular system serves a number ofimportant functions in the body. It e.g. delivers oxygenand nutrients to, and removes carbon dioxide andmetabolic waste products from, every cell in the body.

    HeartThe heart is the primary pump that circulates bloodthrough the entire vascular system. Heart has twoatria acting as receiving chambers and two ventriclesacting as sending units. The right side of the heart(right atrium and ventricle) receives the blood that hascirculated throughout the body and sends it into thelungs for reoxygenation. The left side of the heart (leftatrium and ventricle) receives the oxygenated bloodfrom the lungs and sends it out to supply all body

    Cardiac muscle has the unique ability to generate itsown electrical signal that allows it to contractrhythmically (about 60-80 beats per minute). Although

    the heart initiates its own electrical impulses, theirtiming and effects can be altered by theparasympathetic nervous system, the sympatheticnervous system and by hormones. At rest,parasympathetic system activity predominates butduring times of physical or emotional stress thesympathetic system predominates. The electricalactivity of the heart can be recorded as anelectrocardiogram.The cardiac cycle includes all events occurringbetween two consecutive heart beats. In mechanicalterms, it consists of all heart chambers undergoing arelaxation phase (diastole) and a contraction phase(systole). During diastole, the chambers fill with blood.During systole, the chambers contract and expel theircontents. Ventricular contraction (systole) begins

    during the QRS complex and ends in the T-wave.

    Heart rate is one of the simplest and most informativeof the cardiovascular parameters. When one begins toexercise, heart rate increases rapidly in proportion tothe exercise intensity. In Polar heart rate monitors thetransmitter in the belt detects the ECG. When thetransmitter picks up a QRS complex, it transmits anelectromagnetic signal, which is detected by the wristreceiver.

    By monitoring heart rate, the simple observation thatthe harder we exercise, the faster our heart beats isput to good use. Professional athletes and amateursalike have for decades been relying on the informationprovided by their heart rate monitor for the following

    reasons:

    1. A heart rate monitor is like a rev counter,

    giving a precise measurement of exercise

    intensity.

    2. Training at your own ideal pace is made

    possible with a heart rate monitor.

    3. Direct measurement of heart rate during

    exercise is the most accurate way to gauge

    performance.

    4. Progress can be monitored and measured,

    increasing motivation.

    5. It maximizes the benefits of exercise in a

    limited amount of time.

    6. It introduces objective observation. Are you

    on the right track? Are you improving?

    7. It is a tool for regulating frequency and

    intensity of workouts.

    8. Because of the immediate feedback it

    provides, heart rate monitoring is an ideal

    training partner

    How does it work?

    When you start training, your heart rate increases

    rapidly in proportion to the intensity of the training.

    In Polar Heart Rate Monitors, the transmitter belt

    detects the electrocardiogram (ECG - the electric

    signal originating from your heart) and sends an

    electromagnetic signal to the Polar wrist receiver

    where heart rate information appears.

    The heart moves blood from the lungs (where the

    blood picks up oxygen) to the muscles (which

    burn the oxygen as fuel) and back to the lungs

    again. The harder the training, the more fuel the

    muscles need and the harder the heart has to

    work to pump oxygen-rich blood to the muscles.

    As you get fit, your heart is able to pump more

    blood with every beat. As a result, your heart

    doesnt have to beat as often to get the needed

    oxygen to your muscles, decreasing resting heart

    rate and exercise heart rate on all exertion levels.

    Good Afternoon Mark,

    I started to train with Step into Life this week andabsolutely love it. Previously I was a member of *******and then did not exercise for 12 months due to anoperation. I was reading through Womens HealthMagazine and came across the brilliant offer and I willnever look back. Yes, admittedly I cannot walk today as Idid Toning on Wednesday night and Cardio last night but Iknow its going to be well worth it.

    I just wanted your Organization to know that********** are awesome and as soon as my trial period isover I will be joining up for sure. In the two small days Ihave trained with them they have already raised my self

    esteem and dedication with their positive attitudes,affirmations and the fun that we can all have together as ateam. They are constantly encouraging us all and giventhat I can not perform specific exercises yet due to myinjury they adapt the program to suit me.

    I just wanted to let you know that they need agreat big pat on the back as they are amazing people andthe rest of the team I train with have been nothing butwelcoming.

    Thank You and keep up the great work.

    Warm Regards
