Most successful people carry a true passion for their work within an industry. Sandra Koulourides, the creator of the Horizontal Conditioning DVDs, definitely carries a passion for nutrition and fitness. Most recently Sandra travelled to Dallas for SCW's Mania fitness convention to teach classes in horizontal conditioning and promote her recent success; the publishing of her first book Fuel+ Fitness The Total Package.
Sandra who owns Fuel + Fitness, a nutritional counseling business in Birmingham Alabama, wanted to share with people how easy it is to create a balance between life, food, and fitness. When balance is present, one will gain better health, energy, and weight loss usually will occur.
Sandra intertwines her Masters in Nutrition and her degree in fitness to present the basics needed to change health in this easy to read book. To get results, Sandra does not believe in starvation, pills, or quick fixes. Her book covers:
- 12 tips to get started
- Chapters on all three macronutrients
- Meal plan ideas
- Common eating mistakes
- Shopping tips
One chapter is dedicated to eating out so social occasions do not sabotage weight loss efforts. She offers healthy food choices for various cuisines such as Mexican, Asian, pizza, and salads.
Sandra herself has realized that as she approached 40, changes needed to be made to both her nutrition program and her fitness program to keep her body lean, tone, and healthy. Her last chapter discusses her changes as well as offers suggestions to those who may be suffering from the effects of hormone shifts in perimenopause and menopause.
Sandra stresses that great nutrition is greatly benefitted by a well rounded and balanced fitness routine. This means cardio, weight training, and flexibility must be a part of daily or weekly routines. These specifics are covered in the book, and with 25 years in the industry, readers can rest assured that her expertise will help transform their body and their health.
