During “Weber World Record Week†Sept 11th – Sept 17th, Alicia Weber, with her high-energy levels,  garnered another 5 world records in a variety of physical fitness disciplines.
First, tackling the track on Saturday, Sept 11th, on a warm, windless, sunny day, she did jump rope running A.K.A rope skipping with her 1.5 lbs weighted speed jump rope (which makes the attempt more difficult). Jump rope running makes running harder because the use of swinging arms is crucial in gaining speed in normal running and they can’t be used, since one is holding a jump rope. Jump rope running is most effective when there is no wind. She lowered her world record in the 400m and set a new world record in the 800m.
Next on Monday, Sept 13th, she redeemed herself on her previous failed attempt on Ring L position dips. Alicia now captured the world record in Ring L position dips (considered the toughest type of dip).
Alicia does 4 Ring L Position Dips in a row within 1-minute for a new World Record.
On Tuesday, Sept 14th, she captured the world record in 3 minutes of deep squats where arms are held straight out and knees bend breaking parallel. She tried 5 sets to the max and her best of 152 reps for deep squats is the new world record for 3 minutes.  The legs must bend and break parallel on every rep while the arms are held out straight throughout the whole exercise. This is an extremely grueling exercise for the quads and glutes. Alicia got sore quads and wobbly legs that lasted 2 days. Alicia says, “I don’t recall ever getting this sore, and in particular, getting wobbly knees after an exercise. My knees were wobbly for 2 days. I had to watch my every move. It is a new experience for me and after aquatic exercise recovery in a cooler water pool, I was back in the game!â€
She took 2 inches off her waist, lost 6lbs, & gained a lifestyle change in just 14 days!
Jenni was the lone participant in the Inaugural 14 Day Fat Flush Fitness Rush where she took 2 inches off her waist and lost 6 lbs!! She calls this 2-week program a life changer!Â
Congratulations Jenni!!
Â
Now, let’s talk to Jenni about her 14-day journey with “Fat Flush Fitness Rushâ€.
Q. Knowing that you have done Weight Watchers and other fat loss programs before, how does “Fat Flush Fitness Rush†compare?Â
Jenni answers, “It doesn’t! Fat Flush Fitness Rush is in a league all of its own! It’s the hardest I worked in 2-weeks straight. I was capable of doing everything, but it is twice the intensity given that workouts are on the beach! I get twice more out of the program though!”
Q. Would you recommend this program?Â
Jenni answers, “Yes, absolutely – you have to already be living an active lifestyle though or you are kidding yourself. If you are already active, you will get that much more confidence! If you aren’t already living an active lifestyle, you are setting yourself up for failure. If you can’t hang with the BIG DOGS, stay on the porch!”Â
Jenni adds, “If you aren’t bringing your “A Game†don’t try! Fat Flush Fitness Rush is NOT for the weak-minded.”
Â
Â
Â
Q. You were the lone participant for this inaugural program. What was your motivation to do it?
Jenni answers, Â “I trust Alicia with my workouts and nutrition plans and I know I will get success and lifestyle change with Alicia and I am ready to go!!”
Q. What are some changes you made and do you think you will continue to improve after the 2-week period?Â
Jenni answers, “For the 1st time in 20 years I went 2-weeks without Diet Soda. I replaced my candy and sweets with fruit and yogurt and I am satisfying my sweet tooth that way! I used to snack after dinner and that bad habit went out the window! This 2-week program has improved my sleep patterns and my body wants to be on a schedule (no staying up late) and it carries over to increased endurance in my workouts. I couldn’t manage 1 suicide run on Day 1. By Day 13, I did 5 suicide runs in a row and with each one my times got faster! I absolutely want to continue this healthy lifestyle and my taste buds and muscles want me to continue too!!”
Q. Have you been able to adopt some new healthy habits?Â
Jenni answers, “ I call this Fat Flush Fitness Rush a “2-week Lifestyle Changerâ€. In 2-weeks time I got the tools I needed to continue with a new healthy lifestyle. There’s NO BAND AID SLAPPING – There’s NO QUICK FIX! ”
Â

Jenni’s final words, “Fat Flush Fitness Rush is about real positive long-lasting change!” Keep Your “A Game” ON follow Alicia on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/awinningway
Just hitting the gym 3 times a week makes a person feel better, but the people that do that PLUS get tested in physical fitness get SO MUCH MORE out of fitness and LIFE!!
A top finisher in Alicia’s “2010 Toughest Fitness Challenge†said that the physical fitness testing is where she learned her strengths and weaknesses. Going to the gym regularly, she never knew where she stood head to toe. Now, she knows where she stands and is better because of her fitness challenge!
Alicia “World Record†Weber says, â€All walks of life can benefit from a fitness challenge no matter if you are behind the desk working all day or in the military. However, if you are in the military or police, I feel you should do a fitness challenge yearly to stay on top of your game.â€
Clyde works at the computer by day, but is there for his workouts at night. He won 2 fitness challenges with Alicia so far. He knows he will stretch himself and it is fun to see how far you can go under Alicia’s tutelage.
Alicia says, “Although people may hear ‘physical fitness testing’ and feel their stomachs churn and want to avoid the topic, my ‘tests’ are not regimented and mundane. They can actually be pretty fun.â€
Clyde just competed and won a “Lungfish Challenge†which consisted of an aquatic long jump, water intervals, and others. Once one challenge is done, he is ready for another!Â
Alicia gives Clyde a Pop Quiz for Spiderman Pushups and challenges him to 24 reps (his current best is 14 reps)! He is preparing for Alicia’s January 2011 Fitness Challenge!
Clyde comments on his physical fitness excitement, “I love the adrenaline rush, goal setting, and competition. It is an individual competition to test myself and I trust Alicia to sculpt my body and be able to do things I can’t imagine doing. Alicia is an ‘exercise artist’ with each exercise and workout preparing one for a bigger goal and achievement.â€
A retired S.W.A.T police sniper believes yearly physical fitness testing is a MUST. He trains under Alicia and recently won a competitive shooting competition. He has been challenged in a 3-min Aerobic Step Test and ab endurance challenges and he hopes to take part in Alicia’s next fitness challenge. He believes being retired is about traveling and being able to climb the Great Wall of China or a mountain in France, if you wish. You don’t want to come into retirement over-worked, bedridden, and unable to enjoy life because you left your physical fitness to the dogs!Â
The retired S.W.AT police sniper says, “When you are out of shape as a police officer you are not only letting yourself down, but your partner. Physical fitness has been shown to improve shooting, fighting, and the ability to handle stress. Alicia’s workouts and fitness challenges are about all-around physical fitness and well being. She tailors the workouts to individual’s needs from beginner to advanced.”

“I honestly can’t imagine life without Alicia. I look forward to seeing her weekly. I have so many things I still want to learn & accomplish, but I have many goals that I’ve already conquered thanks to World Record Weber pushing me every step of the way! Alicia’s “Your Winning Way to Physical Fitness” book helps hold myself accountable and I can easily track progress. It is a terrific complement to her training program.”
-Jenni, Runner-up in Alicia’s 2009 Fitness Challenge and 3rd place in 2010 “Lungfish Challenge”
“WORLD RECORD WEBER’S book, Your Winning Way to Physical Fitness, is unlike anything I have ever seen! Alicia describes the 5 areas of physical fitness, shows how to do the exercises properly, and explains the tests that measure your level of fitness. She even provides a 52-week log section to record your results. FABULOUS! Since I am prone to back aches, I learned which exercises I should do.” – Claudia, Senior Citizen trying to stay fit!
“While many forms of exercise are all good (biking, hiking, swimming, running) they are based on repetitive movement. Numerous muscles are used very little or not at all. Alicia’s book has a program that will indentify under-used muscles and muscle tightness (decreased flexibility). This program increases flexibility and muscle balance, which is a well-known injury preventer.” – James, long distance hiker (had partial tear in quadricep, now healed)
“With Your Winning Way to Physical Fitness, Alicia instills the power of commitment when you make a pledge for a ‘new you’ . Having this book by my side, I know what stretches to do when I get stiff and how to prevent injuries. I know my progress as I fill out the 52-week training log. I learn how much water I should be drinking during exercise and throughout the day. I learn key healing foods and most of all, I learned things I never knew before. This is a book I keep re-reading and I can certainly say it has helped take me to another new level in athletics!  Your Winning Way to Physical Fitness is a REAL WINNER!” -Chris, Recreational Athlete turned Elite Athlete
Alicia Weber’s claim to fame might be her 30+ World Records in Strength and Endurance and her 60 victories among 10-sports, but her business is helping people in all areas of health, nutrition, and physical fitness and taking them to a whole new level!
She takes her 15+ years of serious athletic experiences and education and creates unique programs. She has a popular personal training program that is geared for a busy person that does not want to spend hours working out and watching everything they eat. Alicia says,”Thrity minutes a week commitment is the minimum needed to see results.”
For those in a rush, Alicia has a 2-week “Fat Flush Fitness Rush” program that has been successful and fun, but intense. Jenni Satterfield participates in both programs with her husband Clyde.  Jenni says this about personal training with Alicia, “Alicia is an incredible trainer that believes in you, even when YOU don’t believe in yourself. She’s by your side doing the exercises with you during your session. She’s creative and thorough with her training. You’ll rarely do the same exercise twice, so there’s no chance you’ll get bored with your personal sessions. She has YOUR best interest in mind, carefully choosing exercises to focus on your needs & working on the goals that you’ve set for yourself.”
Jenni adds, “I took a session of “Fat Flush Fitness Rush” and Alicia pushed us to the next level. She won’t let you give up because she’s constantly encouraging you & she does the same exercises with you! I can now understand how just 14 days in the “Fat Flush Fitness Rush” program will give you positive results!”
Clyde  Satterfield won a recent 4-week “Lungfish Challenge” that consisted primarily of tough water workouts. Clyde says,  “I was very skeptical of Alicia’s water workouts. I didn’t expect to get much out of them at all. I’m a guy & I like to be in the gym! Well, she proved me wrong. I was impressed with Alicia’s workouts & the results they produced. It’s a nice change of pace from the gym. I highly recommend her aquatic training and Lungfish Challenge. She makes them fun, but even more challenging.”
Also in the “Lungfish Challenge” the 4th place finisher was also on Alicia’s nutrition program and she took off a record 3 inches off her waist in 4-weeks!
Alicia’s programs cover all areas from aquatic therapy rehab to high intensity sport performance training. She has worked with people ages 4-97 yrs old. Here is a short list of some programs available in Lake County Florida (outside of the ones listed above): water aerobics, dance classes, aquatic therapy, martial arts conditioning, programs to get military and cops in shape to pass the fitness tests, balance and coordination training, programs for people with arthritis, fibromyalgia, and diabetes, “Weight Loss by Water” program for obesity, running and triathlon coaching, and programs for better golf.

Now Playing "World Record Weber - 45 Minutes of Maximum Strength World Records" found exclusively at videoteasing.com and aliciaweber.com/shows
Alicia picked 6 maximum strength exercises that increase in the level of difficulty through adding components of coordination/balance and both large and small muscle groups as the rest time decreased. She had 9 minutes of rest after her first exercise and less than 2 minutes of rest before her last exercise.
Alicia’s 2nd -5th exercises were meant to wear her out a little and make the last minute of ring dips challenging. Alicia says, “I did a set of 35 consective pull-ups then 30 consecutive chin-ups followed by 11 handstand pushups in a minute (where head comes to floor each rep) and finally the hardest type of dip – ring L position dips. Consecutive exercises are very taxing on the muscles and then the handstand pushups and ring L dips are the most challenging of all these exercises with their elements of balance and use of large and small muscle groups.”
Alicia Weber combines her athletic and strength talents with her entertainment /comedy abilities to create “fitness comedy†at AliciaWeber.com/shows . Not only has she been an elite athlete for 15 years with 30 world records, but she has been an entertainer. It was very common for Alicia to compete as an athlete in the AM and then perform into the wee hours of the night as one (or sometimes up to 3) of her characters at National Championships like the Collegiate Triathlon National Championship.
She has created and performed as 9 different characters (male, female, and animal roles). One of her popular characters with athletes has been Coach Johnny Deltoid – the obsessed, eccentric, and old track coach. He stars in her newly released show “World Record Weber Challenges Coach Deltoid in AM Strength Workout.â€
Alicia “World Record†Weber will be performing maximum strength feats, extremely difficult and rare strength exercises all while challenging her coach to consider strength training over running for once. After all, Coach Deltoid has been around the track far too many times and he needs to change things up. The coach shows resistance in this 10-minute show and he tries to hold World Record Weber back from the Ultimate – 1 Arm 1 Finger (and thumb) Pushup.
Will she meet her Ultimate Goal?? Well, of course, but she goes through some obstacles to break away from the obsessed track coach. The real question is…Will she get Coach Deltoid to love strength training?
Are you a fan of female strength feats and bicep flexing? If so, then you definitely need to visit Videoteasing.com. There are over 45 natural female strength athletes that demonstrate amazing feats of strength and they talk to fans in Live Chats! These female strength athletes have a variety of videos available covering everything from flexing to mixed arm wrestling to weightlifting, gymnastics, and calisthenics strength feats and everything in between! If you would like to see phenomenal feats of strength by beautiful, feminine, natural female strength athletes, then Videoteasing.com is the place to visit regularly as new Shows and Live Chats are constantly taking place!
Let me introduce you to 3 of the natural female strength athletes on Videoteasing.com …
Catalina Calisthenics was a runner turned thrower on the track team and she has strength feats that will throw you! Catalina is a lithe, limber, Southern Belle that is very sweet, but in competitive mode – LOOK OUT! She performed a strength show in Las Vegas, NV, and didn’t want to leave Las Vegas or her hotel room! She loved it so much! She decided to arm wrestle the next guest for the hotel room (you can see part of that arm wrestling match below). She is most known for her exciting arm wrestling and bicep flexing! Visit Catalina directly at www.videoteasing.com/catcali.htm
Due to recent requests by my fans, I made a 10-minute non-stop sit-up video (shown above) where the sit-ups get increasingly more difficult as time goes by. Sit-up endurance is definitely a measure of many muscles not just the Abs. For one, a strong back is needed to sustain endurance and proper form in sit-ups. Proper form is defined as legs bent and held down, arms bent and immovable with fingers placed above the ears. Chin is away from the chest with a forward head placement.
For a rep to count – medial elbow on both arms must cross the lateral knee on both legs (back is perpendicular to ground at apex of situp) and then the lower back must flatten and touch floor. This is how to perform proper form situps for fitness tests.
A weak, sore, and fatigued back will be the first to give out during sit-ups. The bending of the knees make the abdominal muscles work more as the upward pull of the torso from lying position to the bent knees involves the following abdominal muscles and other muscle groups:
1.)    The first 30-45 degrees (lifting the shoulder blades off the ground with full compression of the rectus abdominis m. ) involves external and internal obliques muscles acting like a corset as they tighten and flex around the rib cage. The rectus abdominis m. is compressed.
2.)   Then moving from 45 degrees to full sit (where medial elbows touch lateral knees) are where the hip flexors become involved in the pull to sit and there is a high compressive load placed on the lumbar spine (where back extensor muscle strength is important or else one could risk injury). In the initial pull phase, the hip flexors can lift the trunk from a lying posture toward the front of the leg in a sit-up. These hip flexors include the iliacus m. and psoas major m. (flexes and laterally rotates thigh), tensor fascia lata m. (an abductor), and the pectineus m. (an adductor). Then, the rectus femoris m. and sartorius m. join in as they are the only muscles in the quadriceps muscle group involved as hip flexors. They originate at the pelvis and are involved with leg flexion as the hip crosses the pelvic femoral joint.
3.)   Going from full sit to about 45 degrees down the hip flexors are once again involved as well as the abdominal stabilizing muscles. The tensor fascia lata m. assists with abduction, internal rotation, and flexion of the hip, as well as trunk stabilization. *Controlling the back and maintaining proper posture are key especially in this phase (you don’t want to just fall back!!). The back extensor muscles (mainly the erector spinae and multifidus muscles) are the main source for posterior stability for the spine and they oppose the force of gravity as they maintain erect posture and control forward flexion during a sit-up.
4.)   Finally from 45 degrees down to flattening of the back on the ground, the rectus abdominis m. goes from flexion to full length extension. The rectus abdominis m. is a long abdominal muscle that begins at the pubis with the muscle fibers extending vertically and attaching to the cartilages of the fifth, sixth, and seventh ribs (on the front part of the trunk).
Are Sit-ups really a good exercise and why do them? Sit-ups are not a good exercise for everybody. As stated in the 3rd paragraph, sit-ups are a No-No for anyone with any kind of back problem or back weakness. Sit-ups are excellent exercise for a regular exerciser that does regular abdominal exercise and back strengthening exercises. Endurance sit-ups are a good challenge for hip flexors, back, and abdominal muscle groups. Although the emphasis should be abdominals with minimal hip flexor muscles working as in proper form sit-ups shown here. Sit-ups can cover the full length of the rectus abdominis muscle in a way that can’t be achieved in a crunch or ab curl, or other (low back held down) ab exercise.   Your rectus abdominis m. and back should feel really stretched out, relaxed, and strengthened after sit-ups if you are conditioned and doing them properly.
