Managing Your Calories and Health Takes Strong Leadership
Eighty percent of American executives feel that corporate America has a responsibility to promote wellness, according to a study by the American Management Association. On the other hand, less than twenty percent of U.S. employers offer lifestyle modification services, this according to the American journal of Health Promotion. If leadership thinks it is important enough, it will be implemented. The problem is there is a part of our culture that puts the daily lifestyle approach to true health and wellness on the back burner.

School-Based Physical Education - Five-Step Leadership Program
"Take care of our children and show them the way.” We live in a culture of sedentary living and overeating. Our children are watching, listening and learning about life and how to live from us adults, their leaders. They are not interested in what we have to say. They are carefully watching how we live. Schools, parents and local, state and federal governments all have a leadership role when it comes to educating our children and keeping them physically fit. What kind of message are they sending our kids?

How to Find the Fountain of Youth
When my grandmother, Gammie, visited me in Berlin, Germany she was well over 80 years old. One day we were about to scale four flights of stairs. She looks at me with a grin and says, “Come on. I’ll race you.” No, she didn’t beat me up the stairs, but she did have a brisk pace all the way up. Gammie passed away at the age of 101. She was also well known for keeping her composure. As she was preparing to fall asleep for the final time, she makes one last adjustment of her wig and then passes away peacefully. What was the main reason for her living so long? Was it her genes?

How to get started
Speaker Topics as Keynotes and Workshops
The Eight Universal Laws of Getting and Staying in Shape.
Over 3,000 Americans die of heart disease, cancer and stroke. Over eighty
percent of these deaths are lifestyle related. Your organization will make
sure that their employees do not become a lifestyle-related casualty of this
war on fighting disease and maintaining good health.
Six Secrets to Permanent Weight Loss
50 % of Americans are overweight, 33% are obese, and as many as 40% of women
and 25% of men are trying to lose weight at any given time. We have a
serious crisis of overeating and leading a sedentary lifestyle. This topic
is designed to equip the audience with the necessary strategic and tactical
knowledge to conquer these health issues.
Wellness Program Strategy in Your Place of Business
According to the Centers for Disease Control, more than 75% of employer
health care costs and productivity losses are related to employee lifestyle
choices. Other studies have revealed that about 20% are responsible for 80%
of the costs. You will be given the necessary tools to immediately implement
a cost effective wellness program that significantly improves the health and
performance of your employees.
How to Combat Childhood Obesity
The percentage of our youth who are overweight has tripled since the early
1970's. Col. Weinstein addresses the six "secrets" to combating the youth
health crisis. We are killing our children and preparing them to have
serious health issues early in life. You will be pointed in the right
direction to guide and inspire our youth to lead healthy and happy lives.
Give-up vs. Take-charge Talk
Getting back on track with performance based living is a matter of how we
think. You will learn how to identify and eliminate what Col. Weinstein
calls give-up talk and replace it with take-charge talk when it comes to
healthy living.
Six Ways to Put the Action Back into the Action Plan
A hurricane Wilma inspired topic that is excellent as keynote and workshop.
Plans for action are devised and prepared for our personal and professional
lives everyday. Few are actually implemented. Get your marching orders to
turn plans into action.
Get Back Up and Catch Your Second Wind!
We've all heard the expressio
"Catch your second wind!" Unfortunately, the
vast majority of people don't even know what the second wind feels like and
there is a reason for this. Ninety percent usually give-up as soon as the
first difficulties or challenges occur. Col. Weinstein will give you those
insights necessary to take you and your worthy goals into the realm of the
second wind and keep up that momentum.
Values and Character Matter Most
There is no exception. Values and character do matter most and are
foundational for sound relationships in the business world and in our family
lives. Whether you are interested in furthering your career, building
high-performance teams or showing our youth or adults the way to lead a
truly values-based life, this is the topic for you and your organization.
