Welcome to the Healthy Living Warrior Lifestyle

-

Hey there! I'm CJ Tremeer - a Healthy Living Warrior!  I'm a Gay Personal Trainer - and I help gay men struggling with body image, unhealthy habits, or self confidence to become mental and physical healthy living warriors through individualized exercise & nutrition programs!

I spent my teens and 20s battling body image, self esteem, and emotional eating issues, and trying to work up enough strength and courage to come out. It was a long lonely process - and wildly unsuccessful for the most part.

I tried diets - programs - books - you name it - and nothing worked... they all made sense in theory - but weren't workable for me in every day life. 
​
In a desperate attempt to break through (and "out") - I signed on with a Personal Trainer - determined to get results.  My confidence grew.  I came out EVERYWHERE, in a "with sparkles" kind of way.   
​
Things I discovered along the way:
  • "I" will always be my own most limiting factor
  • The power of community and coaches in pursuing goals
  • Life is happier when we are fully self expressed - and we can be fully self expressed RIGHT NOW - in whatever shape we are
  • Working out is a passion for me
  • I want to empower and make a difference for my community
  • Life can be all rainbows and unicorns!
I created Healthy Living Warrior from my personal journey - all the things I discovered and did wrong along the way to empower those on a similar journey.  Let's take on this adventure together!
​
Healthy Living Warrior is a title and a way of life.  I am a Healthy Living Warrior!  You can be a Healthy Living Warrior! 
​
I'm here - as one member of the Tribe - to help lead you, motivate you, challenge you, push you and empower you to live your best life!  Together - we are a Tribe of Healthy Living Warriors - a community - a team!  We will support each other on our individual journeys.  We will all win our healthy living goals together!  
​
I invite you to make the declaration, join the tribe, BE a Warrior - and share the Warrior Lifestyle with people in your life!  The next step is yours - declare your Warrior status - and dive in with us!

Muscle Monday - Deltoid

-
#MuscleMonday - Deltoid The Deltoid muscle is what give our shoulders that amazing rounded shape.   There are 3 heads (parts) to this larger triangular shaped muscle.   The muscle wraps around your shoulder joint and each head of the muscle produces a different movement of the shoulder joint. The Anterior (front) head originates   from the lateral third of the front of the Clavicle. The Lateral (middle) head originates from the Acromion of the Scapula.   The Posterior (rear) head originates from the Spine of the Scapula. All 3 heads come together and insert mid-way along the Humerus (the upper arm bone). Your deltoid works to prevent partial and full dislocation of the head of the humerus from the shoulder joint - especially when carrying a load.   All heads of the deltoid work together to cause shoulder abduction.   Additionally,   - the Anterior (front) muscle fibres work to flex, abduct, medially rotate, and horizo...

New Year - Same You

  It's time for my New Year's Resolution Rant - buckle up - truth is what trainers and coaches deliver! I'm not posting a whole "New Year - New You" series - or checking in on Resolutions. I'm not diminishing having goals - in fact - goals are critical - and they have to be backed up with NEW Actions. The hard truth is - you are the same person today that you were on Friday. January 1st was in fact just a Saturday. Nothing happened with the arrival 2022 that magically transformed your nutrition, weight loss, smoking, exercise, or relationship patterns. So while the beginning of a new calendar year provides and opportunity to reflect on the year that is completing, examining what worked and didn't work, and creating goals for the year that lies ahead, all of that work will fall flat if you haven't created NEW ACTIONS to take to fulfil on your goals. NEW actions refer to things you haven't done before - to generate results you haven't genera...

Whey and Casein Protein Primer

-
Whey and Casein Protein Primer Source (extracted from): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3905294/ Whey Whey is a general term that typically denotes the translucent liquid part of milk that remains following the process (coagulation and curd removal) of cheese manufacturing. From this liquid, whey proteins are separated and purified using various techniques yielding different concentrations of whey proteins. Whey is one of the two major protein groups of bovine milk, accounting for 20% of the milk while casein accounts for the remainder. All of the constituents of whey protein provide high levels of the essential and branched chain amino acids. The bioactivities of these proteins possess many beneficial properties as well. Additionally, whey is also rich in vitamins and minerals. Whey protein is most recognized for its applicability in sports nutrition. Additionally, whey products are also evident in baked goods, salad dressings, emulsifiers, infant formulas, and med...
