Let us be Part of your Fitness New Years Resolutions and Finally Succeed. Every year millions of people make New Years Resolutions. 45% of Americans made fitness New Years Resolutions. 1 in 3 will quit their fitness resolutions by the end of January. Most will quit right after Valentines Day. You might have failed in the past because of lack of motivation, eating pizza and donuts at Planet Fitness, believing that you would burn 1000 calories at the local national affiliate kickboxing wannabe program, getting injured trying to to break your WOD personal record or listening to an inexperienced personal trainer that was reading his e-mail while he was suppose to spot you. I know, you’ve tried it all and failed. Let me be part of your New Years Resolutions and finally succeed this year. I will help you defy the odds and finally succeed in 2015. New year, new you!

We have a proven method that has worked for instructors and students of Anta’s Fitness and Self Defense and for myself. 

 When choosing a martial arts or fitness program take a look at the instructors are they fit, do they train? What are their certifications. If they are not in great shape why would you believe that they can fulfill their promises of getting you fit and teaching you martial arts? If it hasn't work for them how can it work for you? I know they'll tell you that they use to be fit and were world champions, yet because they are in their 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's they can not stay in shape. Don't believe their BS. You can be fit at any age. I'm 57, my wife Elena and my cousin Hector Arcia who are instructors at our martial arts and fitness center are both 44 and in great shape. 

Instructors Elena Anta  44 years old and Julio Anta 57 years old

 

I've been doing martial arts since I was 13 and strength training since I was 18. So, imagine what we can do for you. Granted it will not be easy you will have to sweat and eat bitter. Eating bitter has nothing to do with the food you eat. It is a Chinese saying for sacrifice and doing whatever it takes to succeed. I believe that “Sacrifice + Suffering = Success.” No, we are not going to hit you. We will guide you and you will need to sacrifice by putting in the time and suffering through a fun yet hard workout and if you are consistent you will succeed. At Anta's Fitness and Self Defense all of our instructors lead by example we are fit and train in numerous martial arts and fitness disciplines.

 There are no secretes or short cuts to success and getting fit. It will take discipline and consistency in your part. Yet, with time discipline will turn into a lifestyle change. Our goal is to make martial art, health and fitness your lifestyle.

How to Beat the Holiday Weight Gain

Muay Thai Kickboxing Fitness for Everyone

Muay Thai Kickboxing is referred to as the Art of Eight Limbs. The hands, shins, elbows and knees are all used extensively in this martial art. As a practitioner of Muay Thai you will have  the ability to execute blows using eight points of contact, as opposed to two points (fists) in boxing and four points (fists, feet) used in the primarily sport-oriented forms of martial arts such as karate and tae kwon do.

 

Muay Thai is the national sport of Thailand. Georges St Pierre said in Men’s Fitness magazine February 2010 issue that Muay Thai was what kept him in great shape and shredded. St Pierre is a former UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) champion and arguably the greatest UFC champion ever. Yet, most people have a misconception of Muay Thai. They think that it is brutal and barbaric, even thought it is partly true. In Thailand they start poor kids in Muay Thai as soon as they start walking in an effort to get the family out of poverty. 

 

Muay Thai is a brutal sport. Yet, the way we teach it at Anta’s Fitness and Self Defense is totally safe. I’ve even trained some spanish celebrities that can not afford to get injured and bruise their face. I trained actor and telenovela star Gabriel Soto when he was living in Miami. Today I train Telemundo’s International anchorman Edgardo Del Villar.

 

 I am a certified level three Kru under Master Tran of the Tran Muay Thai Kickboxing Association. Kru is what they call in Thai a full instructor. Our authentic Muay Thai Kickboxing classes are for everyone from those who want to get in shape, learn to defend themselves, to those looking for the ultimate fitness workout. For optimum fitness you most have low body fat, cardiovascular endurance, muscle tone and flexibility. Our Muay Thai program will help you attain all four factors for optimum fitness. 

 

Muay Thai also known as Thai Boxing is one of the fastest growing sports and the stand up fighting style of MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) and the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship. Anta’s Muay Thai Kickboxing classes focuses heavily on a good cardio workout, which includes both aerobic and anaerobic activities. Training regimens include heavy bag work, focus mitts and Thai pad work are done in intervals while throwing kicks, knees, elbows and punches with a lot of power. As part of your training you’ll also workout doing shadowboxing, body weight resistance exercises and abdominals work. This type of workout will work on your endurance and muscle tone making it the ultimate fitness program while learning to defend yourself. 

 

Get in the best shape of your life, transform your life and empower yourself in our Muay Thai Kickboxing class. Anta’s Muay Thai program will help you lose those un-wanted pounds and teach you to defend yourself so that you can live life fit and fearless.

Get Fit like a UFC Fighter without getting Hit

Intensity the Key to Fitness Success

As a fitness instructor, martial arts instructor and strength and conditioning coach I often have people ask me “why am I not seeing results in my fitness training?” I can truly answer the question with just one word INTENSITY! Yet, not to sound rude I usually ask them to tell me how they workout. Well, the answer is usually the same “I train really hard an hour on the thread mill and an hour lifting weights.”  I recently had someone that is not getting the results that she wants tell me that she trains for 2 ½ hours, 1 hour on the treadmill, 1 hour on the elliptical machine and 30 minutes hitting the weights. The bottom line is that if you are training for more than an hour at a time you are not training hard or with intensity. Unless you are in the condition of a world class athlete an Olympian you can not withstand intense training for more than 45 minutes. 

 Stop making excuses if you don’t see significant change in your physic you are not pushing hard enough. Walk into any gym in the world and you’ll see a few unfit people on a treadmill reading a book, talking on the phone or with a friend. I recently noticed a lady at a gym working out on a thigh adductor machine reading a book. If you are doing anything other than the exercise when you are working out you are not focusing. If you are not focusing your workout will not be intense. By now you might be wondering what training with intensity really means? 

 Intensity is how much effort you put in your workout. Training with intensity is training out of your comfort zone. It is giving it all you got in each and every set and rep that you do each and ever day. You must give maximum effort in every workout you do if you want to lose weight, burn fat, build muscle or see any positive change in your body.

 A perfect example of working out with intensity is your warrior’s instinct. 100’s of years ago man was a warrior and/or a hunter. To survive as hunters and warriors we had to drive through pain barriers with an explosive force of will, never surrendering or giving up until we gained the victory in battle or hunted our food. Dig deep inside of you and workout like if your life depended on it pushing your body to your limits. Here is an example of what I tell my fitness clients and martial arts students. If when you taught you had finished your set of exercise they put a gun to your head and you were told that if you did not perform 5 more reps they would shoot you or a family member I’m sure that you would  pump out 5 or possibly even 10 more repetitions.  

 Let me give you another example of how your body can change with intense training. Look at the body of an Olympic sprinter VS an Olympic marathon runner. A sprinters race is short and intense. The marathon runner has to pace himself to jogs for hours to complete the grueling 26 mile race. Look at the sprinters body the males have muscular legs, wide shoulders and chiseled abdominals. The women that compete in sprinting have hard feminine bodies. Now let’s look at the marathoners’ body. The males have very little muscularity with narrow shoulders and frail looking bodies. The women marathon runners also look frail, losing their hips and famine lines

 Keep your workouts no longer than an hour, preferably 45 minutes since your testosterone and other hormone level starts dropping after 45 minutes. Testosterone is hormone that your body uses to grow muscle. I remember in the late 70’s Mr. Olympia Arnold Schwarzenegger and Cardio Guru Richard Simmons were guest on the Tonight Show. At the end they asked booth of them why someone should follow their training methods as oppose to the other persons. Arnold’s answer was do you want to have a body like me or hair like Richard? So my question to you is do you want to look like a sprinter or a marathon runner? If your answer is sprinter cut your workout time and workout with intensity.

At 56 years old with almost 40 years in the fitness and martial arts industry starting as a competitive bodybuilder I’ve seen it all. Yet, the truth is that Americans are a lot fatter.  As per a National Center for Health Statistics Adults are 25 pounds heavier than they were in the early sixties and the trends are the same for children the average 10 year old weighs eleven pounds more today. 

Your excuse might be that you tried the latest popular high repetition functional training program and got injured. An MMA Fighter has to make weight and last 3 to 5, 5 minute rounds of getting kicked, kneed, elbowed, punched, thrown, submission attempts, ground and pound, yet they can not afford to get injured in training. MMA Fighter Fit was developed for the longevity of a fighter. Yet, now everyone can get fit and fearless with MMA Fighter Fit. You will get in great shape like an MMA and UFC fighter while having fun, not getting hurt or getting hit. 

UFC fighters are the athletes that are in the best shape in the world. Well, you can get in the best shape of your life in 45 minutes 3 times a week by training like a UFC fighter with the MMA Fighter Fit workout. This is a quick, challenging and fun workout for men and women. No, you are not going to get beat up or have any physical contact in this class. We are not going to kid you by telling you that MMA Fighter Fit will be easy, yet it can change your body and your life. 

Anta’s Fitness and Self Defense is an authorized Burn with Kearns MMA Fighter Fit center. The MMA Fighter Fit class was developed by my good friend and mentor Coach Kevin Kearns who has been at the forefront of developing conditioning programs for UFC fighters that achieve amazing results. Coach Kearns was named as one of the top conditioning coaches in the world by UFC Magazine.

Like authentic fighter training camps, MMA Fighter Fit incorporates physical and mental challenges. It represents some of the most intense training you can do other than get in the ring and face an opponent in a safe environment. 

Our center is fully equipped with the tools that MMA champions use in their training: kettlebells, Battling ropes, MMA bags, sandbags, Muay Thai kickboxing, Indian clubs, Bozu, Surge, medicine balls, plyometrics boxes, bodyweight exercises, tires, hammers, chains and heavy bags to give you this quick yet intense fat burning workout. 

The mantra behind MMA Fighter Fit is that we all have a fighter inside ourselves waiting to get out. The mind controls the body. Taking control of this energy allows us to move the bounds of our limits beyond what is self imposed. It’s the ultimate real fighters’ workout class developed for fitness clubs!

Stay Safe and Stay Fit for the Holidays

The holiday season is here this is an exciting and special time of the year for every member of the family young and old. Our homes, cars, stores and malls are jam-packed with gifts, decorations and the holiday sprit. We celebrate the holidays at parties with friends, family and co-workers. Unfortunately this is also the season where the average American will gains 7 pounds, yet this is the least of our problems. While you prepare for your Christmas shopping the common thief is also preparing to ruin and steal your Christmas joy.  

 Lets learn to be aware of your actions and surrounding when shopping, dinner and on vacation. Be aware of your eating and exercise habits. As a martial arts and fitness instructor I try to always be aware of my surrounding whether I’m at home relaxing, at a restaurant, movie, driving or shopping. I’ve learn most of my anti-crime awareness from my 10 years working at a maximum security prison as an officer, in the United States Marine Corps and as a Krav Maga IDF (Israeli Defense Force) Self Defense instructor.

 When I went to the academy to get certified to be able to work at the prison they teach us how to be constantly aware of our surroundings because the convict is always a step ahead of us since they have 24 hours to think of how they will deceive you and break the prison laws. When these criminals go to prison they are learning new strategies to ruin your holidays by robbing, attacking you, and stealing from you. When they leave the prison or what I call Thug University they have learn new strategies to help them commit the crime. 

 In Marine Corps Bootcamp in Parris Island, North Carolina also called the land that God forgot you are under stress for 16 hours or more hours a day, 7 days a week for 12 weeks. When you graduate from USMC Bootcamp you walk and talk different, you are confident, you look sharp, you are lean, mean and aware of your surroundings. You are a Marine. Yet, you do not have to enlist in the Marine Corps to stay safe this holiday season. 

 For most adults I recommend learning Krav Maga. Krav Maga taught to Israeli military is a great way to get fit, learn crime awareness and how to gain the confidence to defend yourself and your family. Here are 5 holiday safety and 5 holiday health tips.

 5 Holiday Safety Tips

 1. Never carry large sums of cash. Use credit, check or debit card.

 2. Men should keep their wallets in their front pocket, while women should zip purses closed and carry them with strap across the chest.

 3. Always put your gifts and packages in the trunk of your car. If you don’t have a trunk, cover your packages with a cover or cloth.

 4. If you must use an ATM, choose one that is located inside a store, mall or well-lighted location. 

 5. Beware of strangers approaching you for any reason. This is the season for con-artist trying to distract you with intentions of taking your money, belongings or even your children.

 

5 Strategies to Combat Holiday Weight Gain

 1. Workout

Continue your fitness workout during the holidays. If you are not working out start today! If you are working out workout extra hard and be consistent to burn those extra calories.

 2. Eat Healthy Foods Before the Feast

 Eat a healthy snack before the party. You’ll be fuller and less incline to over eat and eat deserts.

 3. Drink Lots of Water

Drink water before, during and after the holiday meal. This will help you stay fuller.

 4. Walk After Your Meal

Walk to burn of calories after holiday meals.

 5. Workout with Functional Exercises and with Intensity for Maximum Results

To see results you must workout with intensity. Forget long cardio training, that destroys muscle. 

Live Fit, Live Fearless and God bless.

This Year Go for the Challenge Not a Resolution

This Year Go for the Challenge Not a Resolution

Another year is going to pass us by, most Americans will have added those extra holiday pounds within the next two months. We will have numerous festivities at work, school, parties and extra curriculum activities with little or no time to workout. Between October 31 and January 1, the average American will gain 7 pounds. Do you know that the average person consumed between 2,500 to 3,000 calories and over 140 grams of fat in their Thanksgiving meal. That’s excluding breakfast, lunch and Thanksgiving snacks. Those statistics are for the average American Thanksgiving meal. You know turkey with stuffing, mash potato with gravy, rolls, corn and pumpkin pie. Let’s not forget all the candy left over from Halloween. If you are of hispanic decent the statistics are even worse, substituting the traditional turkey and potatoes with Roasted pork, white rice and beans, cooked in lard.

 I’m sure that you feel as most Americans do, that it is time to hit the gym and start your preparing for the 2014 New Years resolutions. But wait didn’t you try that last year and miserably failed? Only 3% of New Years Resolutions are ever fulfilled. By Valentines Day most people have given up on their fitness resolutions. There are numerous reasons why only a small portion of the population achieve their resolutions goals. Some people start super motivated and lose it in a short time because they don’t know what to do and don’t see results, others get injured following the latest high repetition fitness fad and other just get bored. New Year’s Resolutions never seem to last because you never challenged yourself to reach for something more and set goals. 

 This coming year forgot the resolutions and take the challenge, Enter a body transformation challenge. Entering a challenge will give you accountability and motivate you to set and achieve your fitness goals. For the last 18 years I been writing my vision every December for the following year. Writing down your goals, entering a a body transformation challenge, setting your goals to get your next rank in the martial arts or preparing to enter a competition will enhance your chances to succeed this year in your fitness resolutions. 

 Every year in January we start a free body transformation challenge at Anta’s Fitness and Self Defense for our students.  It challenges you to develop a firm body as well as a disciplined mind; strong spirit; and the self-control required to achieve any resolution, face every decision and conquer every obstacle. Yet, most importantly it will finally give you the results that you have not gotten in all the years that you have been setting resolutions. Enter our Fat Loss Challenge and take the first step toward achieving the lean, healthy body you’ve always wanted. It’s simple and straightforward… a clear-cut win/win situation for every participant.

 Anta’s Doral Fitness Challenge is a 12-week healthy living contest based on the proven principals and functional training that I practice. We are not going to kid you by telling you that it will be easy. 

  All great accomplishments, achievements and inventions started with a dream and manifested in the mind of a great believer. So, I want you to close your eyes, right now and see yourself 12 weeks from today looking and feeling great buying a new wardrobe for spring if you take this challenge. Now picture yourself 12 weeks, 1 year and 5 years from now if you continue to eat un-healthy foods, living an un-healthy lifestyle, not exercising and not setting your fitness goals. So this year don’t make a resolution, go for the challenge.

On Tuesday I'll have to get surgery in my hand after 2 months of hand problems seeing numerous doctors and theropist yet with no results. Yet, I'll continue to work out as hard as I can with a hand brace until I get the surgery. After the hand surgery I was told that I would have to spend 10 days without using my hand. Those will be some long 10 days since I'm use to working out. I'm 56 years old and have back and shoulder problems. Yet, I continue to workout and get in better shape each year since since I was 49 years old. martial arts has been part of my life since I was 12 and strength training/fitness has been my life since I was 18.   

As an honorably discharged U.S. Marine Corps Sergeant I believe in leading by example. If you are a parent and you want your child to be fit, fearless, respectful, successful and achieve the coveted rank of black belt you must lead by example. Kids will not do what you tell them they'll imitate you and grow up to be like you.  So, why not come and see me so that I can help you get in the best shape of your life before Christmas.

Ageless Warrior at Fifty-Six and Beyond

I titled this article “Ageless Warrior at Fifty Six and Beyond” because most people believe that after Thirty life starts to go down hill. Yet, I’m in better shape today than I was in my teens, thirties, forties and fifties. The only time that I looked better physically was in my mid to late 20’s. That was primarily because I was a competitive bodybuilder. I dislocated both shoulders in a karate tournament and had to stop lifting the way I use to. I was told by doctors that my shoulders would get even worse with time. They said that I would never be able to workout with weights or do martial arts again. I was heartbroken and depressed. Bodybuilding and the martial arts had changed my like and was my passion. 

 I love to defy the odds and prove negative people wrong. Today, both of my shoulder are still injured and now my back is also injured. That has not stopped me from working workout with weights, Achieving the rank of Master in Kung Fu, having black belts and/or instructor levels in Muay Thai, Krav Maga and Jeet Kune Do. I am also a student of Gracie Jiu Jitsu., I will not stop, quit or give up on my life passion fitness and martial arts. I call this concept of anti-aging, living fit and fearless “The Ageless Warrior.”

 The Ageless Warrior is nothing new. The Ageless Warrior is more like the Israeli Biblical hero Caleb. Caleb was a spy and great warrior from the tribe of Judah. Caleb was a man of great faith and was allotted land and villages in the vicinity of Hebron. By this time he was 85 years of age and he was as strong as he had been a generation earlier when he first traveled through Canaan as a spy. He proved his strength and power by driving out the inhabitants. Caleb was a true Ageless Warrior. With healthy eating and physical training you too can be an Ageless Warrior.

 Many people after they have kids they devote all their spare time to taking the kids to activities. They get out of shape and forget their dreams and goals. They start living their life through their children. One of my purpose in life is to teach people that age is just a number and that they can be fit and fearless at six or ninety-six. I feel that you can be the person that you taught you could have been at any age. I have over 40 years experience in the martial arts and almost 40 in fitness. If I can be in the shape I’m in at fifty-six can you Imagine what I can do for you?

 One of my secretes to staying young and fit is the martial arts lifestyle. I believe that martial arts and fitness are one. Living the martial arts black belt lifestyle which is eating healthy, strength training, martial arts training, indomitable spirt, not giving up and consistency will make you an ageless warrior. I believe in leading by example. That is why I train everyday. One of my pet-peeves is the out of shape martial arts instructors and fitness instructors. How can they teach you or your child discipline and to get in shape when they don’t have the discipline to eat healthy and workout?

 My role model is Jack Lalane the fitness guru who died at 97 and lived fit and fearless. I also admire Jhon Rhee the father of American Tae Kwon Do who is super fit. Rhee’s philosophy is having the wisdom of 100 years with the body of a 20 year old.  I remembers speaking to Grand Master Rhee at the NAPMA World Martial Arts Conference in 2003. When Rhee learned that I was 46 at that time he said, we can change people, you in Miami, me in Washington D.C. and others in their cities. Mr. Rhee is a visionary and a true Ageless Warrior. Let’s not forget Sly Stallone star and writer of Rocky who gets in better shape with age.

 In my thirties I worked out with weights a bit, yet I dedicated my life to martial arts training and building my relationship with Jesus Christ. In my forties I focused on growing one of the most successful and prestigious martial arts centers in the nation, getting certified in functional fitness such as kettlebells, Battling Ropes, Fitness Kickboxing etc. Reaching and surpassing all these goals at forty-nine years old I decided to re-build my body and get in the best shape of my life. It has been a slow yet steady road. At fifty-six years old I am living fit and fearless. My goal is if it’s Gods will is to be in better shape and look better at 60 years old than today and continue my quest as an Ageless Warrior.
