From the Office of Natalie Pyles, A.Z.
Scottsdale Superior Court, Division 2
Author of My Struggling Overweight Out-of-Control Teen

The problem is that most parents of strong-willed, out of control overweight teenagers
have tried very hard to regain control -- but with little or no success. And
it seems the harder the parent tries, the more the teenager "acts-out."

I often hear the following statement from parents: "I've tried everything
with this child -- and nothing works!" But when they attend my fitfood parent-
program, they soon discover they have not tried everything, rather they have
tried some things. Learn more about the fitfood parent-program for Teens.

Now there is an online version and in-home version of the parent-program for working parents
who are struggling with their overweight out-of-control struggling teenagers, and you will experience
the same success as those who attend the program in person. Of course we can provide you with both in-home and on-line as well for ultimate Results!


You will learn cut-to-the-chase fitness, food, cooking, easy snack tips and recipes. Parenting strategies that work immediately
rather than months or years down the road. And I guarantee your success or
you get your money back -- and you can keep the package I am about to offer
you. This is how confident I am that the online version and in-home version of the parent-program
is going to work for you.

The online version is called Online Parent Support (OPS). Your No more Overweight Teen struggling system.

parenting classes. You don’t need -- nor would you want -- a 250-page
manual on how to be a better parent. Who has time for that? And you
don’t need to go through another year of pain and misery with rebellious,
unhappy, depressed, overweight teenagers with an "attitude."

Initially, the parents who attend my Overweight out-of-control parent-program (the same program
you’ll get with Online and offline Parent Support) are at their "wit's end" and describe
home-life as “hell's kitchen.”

A few short weeks after they start the program (which is divided into
8-12 sessions, 30-60 minutes each session), the majority of parents report that
problems in their homes have reduced in frequency and severity
and are finally more manageable.

traditional parenting strategies. Whenever you have a couple spare moments
sitting at your computer, you can see how to bring about positive change in
your household...

…change that will increase the likelihood that your child will be a success --
both at school, with their weight loss and in life.


* Is your child in charge (the tail is wagging the dog)?
* Does she/he have an "attitude" 24 hours a day, 7 days a week?
* Is she/he resentful about something that happened in the
past and just can’t seem to get over it?


Are you concerned that your child is:

* Having social skill issues?
* Hanging with the wrong crowd?
* Experimenting with drugs or alcohol because they are depressed?

Nine Tips Teens Can Apply To Their Weight-Loss Strategies

Nine Tips Teens Can Apply To Their Weight-Loss Strategies

Q. I am an overweight teenager. I have no idea how to go about dieting. Do you have any tips?

A. Figuring out a strategy for losing weight is a great first step! I have several tips for you that not only will help you lose weight, but help you to keep the weight off for a lifetime.
1. Forget blame and guilt: It is important for you to make sure that you don't blame anyone -- either yourself or your parents -- for where you are right now. Feeling guilty about your appearance is a negative feeling that won't help.
2. Take the long term approach: Look at what you are about to undertake not as a short term, quick, weight loss, but rather a change in lifestyle to last a lifetime. You will begin to make more nutritious food choices, add exercise, and cut back somewhat on your eating. If you falter along the way, you don't need to look at it as a failure because you know that you have a long time to make the changes. For example, if you go with your friends to eat at a fast food restaurant, and you indulge in a large order of fries, there is no need to feel guilty because you know that eating them is not a regular habit, and that at the next meal you will eat more sensibly.
3. Set reasonable goals: Losing one-half to one pound per week is very realistic. Don't drop your calorie intake to below 1,300 calories because it would be hard to get all the important nutrition that you need in less than that, plus, you probably won't feel satisfied.
4. Add daily exercise: I suspect that you may be caught in a vicious cycle of not exercising, eating and not having energy. Exercising actually makes you feel more energetic once you have made a habit of it. If you don't feel like you have energy to exercise now, start out with some physical activity that will get you moving, but won't require a lot energy. How about taking the dog for a walk? Or, if you don't have a dog, take the neighbor's dog for a walk. Once you have done some walking, every day for a couple of weeks, try running for a short distance. Get out on your bicycle, or roller blades, or shoot some baskets in the driveway. If you are at a loss for exercise ideas, speak to your gym teacher. I'll bet they would love to help you out. Most teachers are thrilled with kids that are self-motivated to improve.

5. Enlist the support of your family: Have a serious talk with your parents and ask them to help. They should be able to help you find materials on nutritious eating, and can help purchase the foods that will help, such as fresh fruits for snacks and whole grain cereals for breakfast. And they can avoid purchasing foods that will tempt you with poor choices, such as sodas, chips, candy, donuts or cookies.
6. Find measures of success besides weight loss: This isn't just about losing weight, it's about getting healthier for good. So, don't measure your success merely on how much weight you lose. Other things you can look at (for example) may be the amount of time you spent being physically active and not watching television, an increase in endurance (for example, biking for a longer distance or jogging for a longer period of time), or a week of making nutritious snack choices (for example, after school you picked a yogurt fruit smoothie instead of cookies and a soda).
7. Block out cultural messages that emphasize being thin: Decide not to focus on the television shows with actresses or actors that are too thin, as well as fashion magazines with overly thin models. In the real world, most people don't look like that. In fact, it is hard to look like a model and still get the appropriate nutrition from an adequate amount of food. Instead, take a look at high school and college athletes. Most of them are muscular, full bodied and brimming over with good health! You don't have to be a full fledged athlete to look or feel that way, but once you have developed an active lifestyle and good eating habits , you will.
8. Schedule a visit with your health-care provider: If you think your energy level is unusually low, have your mom or dad call the doctor. It may be that some health problem is contributing to how you feel.
9. Find your motivation from within: Weight loss won't happen unless the desire comes from inside you. No amount of outside pressure will do the job.
Good luck to you and have fun developing a happy and healthy lifestyle.

"How To Train Teens Through Exercise & Eating"

With the increasing concern of rising obesity levels, more and more attention is being turned to encourage young people to become physically active. Here, we look at the differences in physiological response to exercise between young people and adults.

Many adolescents already take part in physical activity or sport regularly, and are already reaping the benefits of being physically fit at a young age. Such benefits include:

• An increase in bone density
• Increased likelihood of participation to continue into adulthood
• Having a lower incidence of injuries
• Weight management
• Improvement in asthma symptoms and cholesterol levels
• Being physically fit enables an athlete to maximize their potential in sport

With greater numbers participating in more than one sport and taking part in competitions frequently, of concern to many fitness professionals, parents and youngsters alike is the amount of training young people of this age are undertaking. We all know their bodies are undergoing rapid change, and consequently we need to be particularly cautious about ever increasing intensities in sports competitions. A number of different factors need to be taken into account before any training program is designed for these athletes and below are a few helpful pointers to guide fitness professionals in the right direction.

Exercise and Growth

Boys and girls have different growth spurts whereby girls undergo their adolescent growth spurt and peak velocity height about two years earlier than boys. However, boys experience longer growth spurts that are more intense than girls2 and they tend to overtake the growth period of females during this life stage. Training therefore needs to take into consideration these differences and fitness professionals need to ensure that individual recognition takes place where no child is undertaking a program too strenuous or intense for their physical development.

Energy and Fluid Needs

Although there is mounting evidence among adults that daily energy requirements are related to total amount of training, there is a limited amount of information in this area for children participating in specific sports. Of the available research, when energy cost is calculated per kg body mass, walking or running at any given speed is significantly greater in children than in adolescents and adults, and this relative cost is higher the younger the child. For example, a seven-year-old child who is walking or running at the same speed as a young adult would need as much as 25 to 30 percent more energy per kg body mass.3 As a result of their greater energy needs while performing physical activities, children also produce more metabolic heat per unit body mass than adults. Consequently, fluid intake must reflect such production and as core body temperature during dehydration increases faster in children than in adults,4 it is vital for coaches and trainers to try to prevent dehydration in child athletes. An ideal approach is to introduce fluid breaks every 15 to 20 minutes during prolonged activities.

Cardiovascular Responses

Sub-maximal cardiovascular responses are different between children and adults, with children tending to work at a higher
heart rate at sub-maximal levels of exercise. Children have smaller hearts and less total muscle volume than adults and therefore any such cardiovascular training should account for such differences. Oxygen extraction by the tissues (a-VO2 diff) also tends to be slightly larger in children than in adults, so it is important to remember that if exercising on hot days, children's core body temperature will increase more rapidly. Ensuring children are fully hydrated will help reduce the negative effects of such increases.

Aerobic Power

After the age of 14, girls' aerobic power can be as much as 15 percent less than boys. However, the effect of endurance training programs on VO2 max on both genders has proved inconclusive.2 This may be due to other growth factors playing a more significant role, such as greater musculature or larger levers, which dominate the effectiveness of aerobic activities.

Anaerobic Power

As expressed per kg of bodyweight, anaerobic capacity is much lower in children than adults and increases progressively with age in both boys and girls. It is important therefore to be aware of the intensity of exercise regimes, as it is not the duration but the intensity of exercise that could lead to more harm. Appropriate activities would include long-distance runs instead of vigorous short sprints, as these may also aid in meeting appropriate body composition requirements.

Strength

After the adolescent growth spurt, muscle development is influenced by hormones and, since testosterone production is greater among males, they will become stronger and faster than females. For such boys, however, it is important to not put too much strain on the body. Two times per week has been proven to ensure significant changes, compared to more frequent sessions where no further improvement was found.3 Activities should be based on individual bodyweight and restrictive weight exercises on machines should be avoided.4 Below are a few recommendations of how to incorporate strength training into young athletes’ regimes. The exercises should be progressive: starting at one and, as the adolescent develops, moving them up through to five.

1. Obstacle courses: rope pulling, climbing
2. Vertical strength: standing push-ups, hanging exercises
3. Bodyweight exercises and medicine ball-based activities/throws
4. Horizontal strength: push-ups, pull-ups
5. Single leg squats, step-ups, dumbbells and barbell exercises

Skill Development

All sports, no matter what discipline, require a high level of skill in order to excel. However, specialized training too early on in adolescence can actually have more of a negative than positive effect. Movement skills such as balance, agility and coordination which would usually be developed as part of a broader based program become neglected and as a result can leave the young athlete with little competency outside the speciality.

Peak Velocity Height (PVH)

Sports scientists believe that it can take up to 12 years of training for a young talented athlete to reach elite status. The use of athletic models to develop these athletes has been successful in recent years. However, due to differences in physical, cognitive and emotional development, research states that age is not a good indicator on which to base athletic development models for athletes between the ages of 10 to 16. Instead, the onset of peak velocity height (PVH) is recommended, which is the point where a child reaches their maximum growth rate. This is affected by genetic and environmental factors (climate, cultural and social) and can be an advantageous reference point for training program design. PVH for girls is usually around age 12 and for boys, age 14. By taking basic measurements (standing height and sitting height), PHV can be observed and specific training programs can be designed to match the child's development.

Recommended Activities

Much debate has surrounded the question of whether young sportspersons should specialize in particular sports at an early age. Current evidence suggests that adolescents should participate in activities that develop overall capacities rather than specialized programs. Furthermore, research has found that when development of strength, power and flexibility is undertaken gradually, higher levels are achieved and the maintenance of such factors remain for longer periods of time. Since growth rates of male and female adolescents vary considerably, it is important that a comparison between athletes is avoided. Certain individuals will improve rapidly on some exercises, while others who have not gone through a particular growth phase will often lag behind. On a personal level, young athletes may also feel confined to the realms of one sport if they specialize too early, which may have a negative effect on participation levels. By experiencing a range of activities and training programs, the young person is more likely to develop a range of athletic abilities, which will increase their options to specialize later on.
