Janitorial Greenwash Fraud

The focus for “Going Green” is almost all about products, and the product providers has been more than anxious to celebrate the new opportunities to capture this new market. The feeding frenzy will continue for a while yet, but what happens when nearly every janitorial firm has added some Green products to their carts? The equalization factor kicks in, and nearly every janitorial firm will claim to be Green by self-acclamation, but has anything really changed?

Can Green program will not come from a new Green product. It comes from the practice of the janitorial crew that are often the missing piece to the Green program puzzle. the fallacy is that practice does not evolve out of a tool. It is obvious that you cannot become a great mechanic by purchasing a great set of tools. Neither will you suddenly become a great golfer because you bought a new set of golf clubs. A woman will not lose weight by buying a dress that is two size too small.

Going Green means you have a basic working knowledge of Green Practices as well as a new set of products on the cart. The workers are equally as important as the products being used. For example, does the working staff really understand that a microfiber can be used without chemicals? Do they use the “Spray and Wipe” routine instead of allowing for “Dwell Time” for the new product? Do they understand how to remove dust rather than just moving it?

In fact, there are hundreds of changes in a Green janitorial firm that are just as important as buying the latest Green product. Going Green is not passed automatically to the staff or by clandestine training. This is why most Green janitorial services are unintentional frauds that pursue profits above full Green conversion. This means that the Green status of little more than a Green facade that is proclaimed for the benefit of others rather than a full integration of a Green practice.

Green Clean Institute offers the only true Green Clean training designed for the workers of your service. Why? In case you haven’t noticed, the janitorial world is in transition from a “task oriented” program to a more demanding “service orientation.” We expect more of these people of these workers because we now realize the impact of all a cleaning service has on the health, safety, and future of each of us.

The word custodian has a rather profound meaning. If infers that these group of workers have duty to the health and welfare of the community they serve. We have discovered that we can no longer pollute the world at large, and we cannot pollute the workplace through the caustic chemicals and sprays commonly brought by those who clean the buildings. This is why clinging to the old practices while using a Green product or two is a fool’s errand and a hoax that needs to change.

Instead of pretending to be Green in your janitorial program, why not take the steps to fully integrate your service with the full program. This does not mean that you need to go vegetarian, trade your car for a bicycle, or run off to save the whales. We all know that the Green movement is here to stay, and it is well past time go into the full Green program. A Green program is the culmination of three factors: a Green Agenda by those making decisions, the inclusion of Green Products, and the training needed for Green Practices by the workers. It is well past time that we end the Green fraud and become Green Clean certified janitorial services.

Bodybuilding and your Training Errors (Part 2)

It is a well-known fact that following training your body ability to synthesis protein is enhanced. It is also pretty well known that post training muscle tissue becomes more insulin sensitive and simple carbohydrates are more likely to replenish glycogen than be stored as body fat at this time.

Such valuable knowledge has really assisted many bodybuilders get positive results from training. It is important to eat mainly post training in preference to other times of the day. Just to confirm this new learnt knowledge, carbs are needed well before training begins just to get through the session anyway and an important requirement during training is a high blood pool of aminos which will be present through proteins consumed hours before.

Make sure you eat those radical nasty goodies prior to training though so they are actually present and working in your blood stream at the point of greatest oxidative stress (during and straight after training) rather than having them hanging around in your stomach digesting while your over trained body is shouting out for help after training.

The same eating routine should be maintained throughout the day. If you are going to be sat by a desk for three hours then reduce on carbs and take in more protein. If you are about to do punishing leg routines then take on more complex carbs, a protein mix, lots of fluids and antioxidants even before you leave for the gym. You should also follow up supplementing your hard training with post workout specialist nutrition but only as part of a well thought out nutrition strategy taking into account your upcoming requirements.

Rare is the day when a competitive bodybuilder admits to being well beaten by his competitors. All you ever see on the boards is excuses and bitching about who the judges were, who’s partner organised the show and every other wild conspiracy theory that someone can think of to explain why there under tanned, badly presented and soft as Rowntree’s Jelly physique didn’t win the whole show.

This is down to how bodybuilding is currently judged which without a doubt could be improved big time. The judges should be forced to write down notes that made quite clear the break down of the score for each physique. These documents could then be at the disposal of the competitors following the event so they could see for themselves what they were lacking. A judge will always highlight poor diet from what he has seen, and this would help bodybuilders prepare better for any future competition.

You can always rely on a bodybuilder to mislead himself on what his own growth progress really is. Unfortunately the answer to this problem is a real concern for the sport as no actual guide exists for judges to at act upon regarding muscle gains. A good tip on training to overcome this void in bodybuilding competition is to have a couple of photos taken each year of your best pose in similar light conditions to keep a personal track on growth and don’t forget to thrown in a fat content test for good measure.

So in a nutshell, gains in lean mass and/or losses in body fat create muscular girth growth although the waist won’t really change much. If aren’t able to loose fat or gain muscle, you probably might want to think “Why the hell am I training?” If you look up Bodybuilding in the dictionary it says “building lean and large muscles”, so if you don’t manage to do that then you aren’t actually bodybuilding and that is the name of the game, right?

This entire BS really does piss me off and it becomes so obvious to me that the bodybuilder has failed big time on training and nutrition and this is the truth behind zero muscle mass gains. You will never be poorly judged for showing off muscular lean muscle gains, will you? So what are the real main objectives in bodybuilding? Well I’ll tell you a little secret and it goes like this…ALWAYS bigger muscle and improved condition.

Most bodybuilders are actually insane. Albert Einstein defined insanity as “Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”. This perfectly describes the dogmatic training and eating habits of most bodybuilders. Many times you will see a bodybuilder in the gym who has not changed his / her appearance one bit in several years and yet is perfectly content to continue on with the same training practices, nutrition habits etc.

If you don’t seem to be progressing in the gym, then consider a drastic change in something now or you could end up looking the same five years down the road. The most likely bet is that your training routine needs some changes made to it, but if you have been giving it your best for a while then have a serious look at your eating habits.

Ever heard someone say they have “crap genetics for bodybuilding” when they don’t even look like they have ever been near a weight? This bothers me greatly. The truth is usually that these guys don’t train sensibly, don’t eat right and don’t pay enough attention to recovery so how can they possibly expect to fulfil whatever potential they may or may not have? These guys seem to think that because they are tall / skinny / fat / lanky / whatever NOW that they will always be that way. Not true!

Supplementation for Optimal Gains in Muscle Mass

In order to get the best results from your workouts, it is a fact that you must make available to your body all the necessary vitamins and minerals in addition to enough of the major components of the diet i.e. protein, carbohydrate and fats and oils (lipids). The proteins, carbohydrates and lipids are the ‘macro-nutrients’ of the diet since they are consumed in much larger amounts compared to the ‘micro-nutrients’ which are the vitamins, minerals and other biological substances consumed in much smaller amounts in the diet than are the ‘macro-nutrients’, but are found in varying amounts accompanying the macro-nutrients in food.

We know that most of the micro-nutrients are already present in the foods that make up the macro-nutrients, but it has been proven that hard-training bodybuilders need a lot more than food can provide in terms of the micro-nutrients. Taking this into account and the stress factor that the body undergoes during training, a large amount of the micro-nutrients are needed in growth and body tissue repair. Therefore extra levels are required by the body which can not be acquired by food alone, which is where vitamin and mineral supplements come in and should be taken on a daily basis.

The important question is what to take and when during the day. A good time in the day to take a multi-vitamin and mineral supplement is during the first meal of the day and this meal SHOULD be breakfast. If you are inclined to miss out breakfast then you really are working against yourself in terms of any lean muscle mass gains that you would otherwise make if you did have a good breakfast on a daily basis. After you have been asleep for a good number of hours, on waking up your blood sugar level is low, and the body is at the point where it has to start accessing materials to raise blood sugar levels and this ALSO means that your muscles can be accessed to raise blood sugar i.e. the muscles are being broken down (catabolised) in such a way that is the exact opposite to what we have in mind which is building muscles (anabolism) i.e. BODYBUILDING!

Therefore, it is quite clear that a good breakfast is a very important meal, and along with milk to drink, an egg-white omelette with a couple of yolks only (using about eight or ten egg-whites is a good basis for a great breakfast; for example, you can add complex carbohydrates by having some boiled rice with your omelette, and dont forget that complex carbs are another very important part of breakfast and boost blood sugar levels steadily as they are digested).Dont make the excuse that a good breakfast takes too long to prepare, because it doesn’t!

If you dont have a very big appetite in the morning then just grab a banana, and don’t worry, as your appetite can be your guide, and will increase as you gain weight as you need to nourish new muscle tissue. You will also benefit from extra vitamin B-complex and C supplementation, as they are soluble vitamins and are used up quickly in general tissue metabolism especially when your muscles are growing !!!

So, it would be a ideal to have a go at supplementing with aditional B-complex and C vitamins in the morning and before going to sleep, and prior to your daily workout. When using high levels of vitamins like these, remember to consume extra fluids such as bottled water on its own or mixed to make up sports drinks. And remember that optimum hydration is a must to get rid of waste products from the body tissues that lower levels of fluid intake may not accomplish.

Train hard and be strong !!!
