The Benefits of Custom Golf Clubs

Do you absolutely love the game of golf but are sick and tired of having to get your golf club repaired over and over? You are not alone! You can take advantage of custom golf clubs to cure these problems, as they are entirely created with you and your swing in mind. No longer will you have to play with golf clubs that just don't seem to fit you right. While getting a set of these top notch clubs might seem like a major expense at first, think about it a little more. Consider the better game you will have with a good set of custom golf clubs, along with being able to say bye bye to all those annoying golf club repair bills you are paying.

After you take these 2 points into consideration, you will surely know that getting a set of custom golf clubs is a very worthy and worthwhile investment.You may think that a nice set of custom golf clubs are more expensive than name brand golf clubs, but this is not always the case. Just like anything, there are deals to be had on a good quality set of custom golf clubs, and you can easily compare the pricing to a set of name brand golf clubs. It's important not to get custom golf clubs mixed up with fitted golf clubs, as there is a stark difference.

Fitted golf clubs start with a set of standard golf clubs from a club manufacturer which are then fitted to be more suitable to your personal traits. custom golf clubs are completely different, as they are entirely custom from the ground up and will fit you perfectly. Don't buy into the hype of the latest club trying to boast the best in club technology - keep it simple with a set of custom golf clubs which you know you can depend on time and time again. Mass produced clubs are nothing but a hassle, opt instead for clubs which you know will meet your specific and unique playing style.

Eat Less to Lose Weight

With all the new advances in nutrition and exercise research it seems to be a contradiction that obesity and over weight is on the rise in north America. It's pretty clear that we know more now than we ever did about how to eat properly and how to exercise for weight loss and overall health. Research in nutrition and exercise shown us exactly what we need to do to lose weight, get into great shape, and stay that way? If science has progressed in these fields of research, why hasn't it resulted in a more fit, healthy, and slimmer population?

The truth is that the opposite is happening to the population. The percentage of overweight, obese and unhealthy adults is rising right along side our scientific knowledge of how to fight it. What is even more alarming is the rise in the percentage of overweight and obese children. We are teaching our children our bad habits.

This is sending a pretty clear message to me. The information we get from scientific research is not reaching the general population. Or more accurately, the message isn't being supported enough by government and industry in our daily routines.

For example: Science would dictate that you should eat modest portions of whole foods, with plenty of fruits and vegetables as a staple of a healthy diet. The reality is that most of us can find half a dozen fast food restaurants within 5 minutes of our houses that are offering us the exact opposite of what we know we should be eating. Even more troubling is the fact that if everyone actually tried to eat the daily recommend amount of fruits and veggies there wouldnt be enough to go around. Author and acclaimed nutrition researcher Marion Nestle points out in her book What to Eat that the north American food supply of fruits and veggies doesnt even add up to the daily recommend amount for each person. The food industry will only produce the food they know they can sell. And we as a population just dont buy that much produce.

The repeated and relentless marketing messages to eat more we receive on a daily basis can overpower most of our better intentions when it comes to making food decisions.

The one message you will never hear from the food industry is eat less. However almost all diet studies that show any significant amount of weight loss have one thing in common: the people in the study consumed less calories.

This is the paradox. Science tells us to lose weight we need to eat less. But the food industry which surrounds us every day is telling us to eat more. And the voice of the food industry is much louder than the voice of science. Just think of how many fast food restaurants, convenience stores, radio and tv commercials, flyers, coupons and other food ads you are exposed to in a day. Then think of how many daily messages you get reminding you to eat a sensible diet with moderate portions and whole foods.

Its not a fair fight, and I dont have to tell you which side usually wins in the battle for your attention. Look no further than the rising obesity, overweight, diabetes and heart disease rates and you have your answer.

Food manufacturers and restaurants know how to push your buttons and entice you to purchase their products, and lots of them too, this is unlikely to change any time soon. It will always be your personal challenge and responsibility to choose to eat less in a society that will forever continue to tell you to eat more.
