FITNESS TIPS TO GET YOU STARTED!

CLICK ON  'BRIAN'S WORLD NEWS'  FOR A FREE  ENTIRE WORKOUT AND NUTRITIONAL SUGGESTIONS.. I was previously a nationally certified trainer. IT IS FULLY PRINTABLE! JUST CLICK ON THE ICON FOR 12 pages worth of ideas. Good luck and good health!

  1. Understand that 'change' will take time! I have some ideas in my book that will help you to gain a belief in yourself and show you that hard work and effort WILL pay off IN TIME! You can apply my philosophies to MANY facets of your life and gain a belief in yourself that WILL carry you to bigger and better things!!!
  2.  Eat 5-6 small meals a day as opposed to large ones.
  3. Try to cut way down on sugars, salts, and unhealthy (saturated) fats.
  4. Incorporate resistance training 3-4 times a week into your routine to increase metabolism. Muscular gains of 3 pounds burn 1,050 calories a week by doing nothing more than having that muscle :-)
  5. As a staple of those 5-6 small meals, eat lean meats (protein) AND fresh veggies & grains(complex carbohydrates) for sustained energy. Protein shakes may also be effective meal substitutes for 2-3 of those sensible meals.
  6. Try to do some type of aerobic training to get your heart to an elevated rate 2-3 times a week.*** A slightly elevated heart rate over a longer time will improve fat loss better than a high heart rate over a short time.
  7. Drink 8 to 10 glasses of water a day.
  8. Always check with your doctor before starting an exercise regime.
  9. I AM PROUD TO BE A DRUG FREE ATHLETE!!!!!!!!!  STEROIDS ARE ILLEGAL AND ARE VERY HARMFUL!!!!! DON'T GET CAUGHT IN THE TRAP!!!

 

 

 

 

Practicing what I preach in my book; AMERICAN GLADIATORS

I tried out for the NEW American Gladiators show coming back to NBC. Age 40 in January, I made it as an alternate contestant on the American Gladiators Live Tour in 1992 at age 24.  With hard work, I am now an even better athlete in many ways than in 1992. I am proud to be DRUG FREE! Hope you enjoy PART of the video audition to be a contestant. I did not put it on here to promote that I am better or worse than anyone else; rather to motivate people to challenge themselves AND to take risks every once in a while. If you try hard, good things often happen. 

WORK HARD TO ACHIEVE NO MATTER WHAT YOUR AGE OR OBSTACLE!  I WAS TOLD BY A NEUROLOGIST AFTER AN ACCIDENT A FEW YEARS AGO NOT TO LIFT WEIGHTS AGAIN. WITH EXERCISE, I WORKED AROUND MY INJURY AND AM COMPLETELY HEALED!  BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND EXCEL!    BEST OF HEALTH TO YOU ALL.  MAKE AN INVESTMENT IN YOURSELF WITH EXERCISE. YOU WILL BE GLAD YOU DID!

IF THE VIDEO DOES NOT PLAY/LINK HERE, JUST GO TO YOUTUBE.COM    AND SEARCH FOR ‘BRIAN CHULIK AMERICAN GLADIATOR AUDITION’ ’. SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE.

An anthology that's fun to read whether a bit at a time or all at once., November 4, 2007

By 

Midwest Book Review     (Oregon, WI USA)


 The debut book of author, science teacher, dog lover, and all-around everyman Brian Chulik, Brian's World: Personal Perspectives and Insights from the Mind of an Ordinary Everyday Philosopher is an eclectic collection of wisdom on topics ranging from overcoming self-doubt, the trials and tribulations of romantic relationships, the benefits of owning pets, the value of personal integrity, and much more. Black-and-white photographs reflecting the author's life intersperse this smorgasbord of tell-it-like-it-is observations. "Do comics have value as compared to traditional, critical favorites such as works of Shakespeare? Why not?!? What really makes a literary work or character worthwhile or worthy of praise?" An anthology that's fun to read whether a bit at a time or all at once.


 

 

Hi Brian,

 

I have read most of your book and am ecstatic to say that you 'get it'!!!  You have said many things that I believe are the

foundation for living a life of authenticity, integrity and

transparency.  That is what I expect of myself and wish to see in others.

  

It is so refreshing to meet people who have come to this

conclusion and instead of using their challenges as excuses not

to exercise these values, we reach a space of unconditional

love and appreciation for what is no longer seen as a

challenge, but blessings that are the means to catapult us into 

the world of empowerment. 

  

You have arrived there and will continue to be an inspiration

for others.  We will make a great impact on our world.  Every

day our lives will continue to grow in exponential leaps as God

pulls us together as team mates to help show the world what it

looks like when we walk the talk of integrity and love. 

Keep up the great work!!!

 

Love,

Kimberlee Schultz; AUTHOR:  'STARMATES'

"I just finished reading your book! I really enjoyed it - you've got a great outlook on things and I'm sure I will carry on a lot of the lessons/advice you wrote about in my own life. My favorite part about the whole book is that you were able to explain your philosophies and thoughts without over complicating things. It can really reach anyone that reads it.

Great work!"

 -C. Hoffman....Ohio


"This is literature of life and very inspirational. You really are a motivation and people can learn from you. "

 -L. Taylor....Ohio


Hello Brian - I finally got a chance to check out your book from the 

library last month.  I enjoyed it and admire the courage it takes to put

one's ideas on paper.  I think it will serve as an inspiration to those who read it.  It also inspired me to start sketching out ideas for a book I want to write.


  -L. Ryland   .....Ohio


"Heartwarming. Gives insight into the male mind"

- D. Nike   ......Ohio

"So real life. Awesome! "

- C. Hus    .......Ohio

"THE AUTHOR WAS MY MIDDLE SCHOOL TEACHER. HE WAS AN AMAZING TEACHER AND MENTOR. VERY INSPIRATIONAL PERSON WITH A WONDERFUL HEART. I AM HAPPY THAT HE CAN FINALLY SHARE HIS THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS (AND WISDOM) WITH A MUCH LARGER AUDIENCE. I AM BLESSED FOR HAVING HIM IN MY LIFE AT A VERY TOUGH TIME IN LIFE. READ THIS BOOK AND BUY IT FOR YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY."

-A. Arthur.....  Ohio

"Very touching book"

 - A. Wans.....Ohio

I just finished re-reading your book and I'm glad I did b/c there were a lot of things I hadn't thought about in a while.  I really liked it and am glad that it made me think about life in a lot of different perspectives.  You have been through a lot in your life and sharing your experiences with others not only helps others but also helps you. 

 I really enjoyed your anecdotes and ideas.  You are an inspiration to me and to others, I hope you know that.  I'm thrilled that your career is teaching youths. Although,you have a lot to offer adults as well.

 Some of my favorite parts are, but not limited to: Dreams, Ambitions and Hope; Religion; The Meaning of Life; Building Success; Power of Change; Politics; Pets (You should have included the name of your dog?); and the Bottom Line.  I also found interesting all the chapters on relationships and communication-taking responsibility for our actions and learning to change into positive people; the idea to work smarter not just harder; and the little stories you included along the way. 

 Overall, it's a terrific read and I would recommend it to everyone!  Thank you for writing it and sharing it with me.  It makes me feel good to know I'm not alone.

 Just wanted to share that with you.

 Liz I.
