– Matthew Johnson,

I Love Kickboxing in Brentwood is a kickboxing studio that features group classes and a fitness program to help achieve results in a fun environment while shedding pounds and getting a lean and toned physique.

The studio, which opened in September 2017, combines a program that professional kickboxers use to stay fit.

Energizing music and passionate instructors provide motivation and a community of friendship and support from other members.

While the classes are predominantly female, more men – about 15 to 20 percent of each class – are starting to try the popular fitness trend.

“Our kickboxing program is unique,” said Matthew Johnson, who owns the studio with his wife Patti. “We blend a

Our instructors fully engage members during every workout, making it a no-joke incredible workout that fits every woman and man of every age, shape and size. The bonus is that it’s super fun.”

Each group class begins with a warmup of jogging and drills, which consist of squats, lunges, burpies and other exercises.

This is followed with stretches to prevent injuries before the group starts bag work.

“This is where the magic starts,” said Johnson. “We go into bag rounds on heavy bags while instructors teach

According to Ari Kann, I Love Kickboxing manager, there are many benefits to bag work.

“This is truly a full-body workout where nothing gets neglected,” said Kann.

“The bag rounds combine cardio and weights and the variety in the bag rounds prevents the body from plateauing.”

Hitting the bag is also a form of resistance training. “Having the body learn to absorb the impact of the punches is not

only incredible strength training, but it also generates muscle growth, (strengthens) soft tissue and increases bone density,” said Kann.

After bag work, the group works on partner drills to burn more calories and practice the techniques they learned.

The class ends with conditioning and stretching.

“At the end of each class everyone feels a great sense of accomplishment,” said Johnson. see Kick-start page 8B

When moles are worrisome

S

kin cancer is one of the most pervasive types of cancer, and just about everyone is

at risk.

The American Cancer Society reports that, over the past 30 years, more people have had skin cancer than all other cancers combined.

Melanoma, while not the most common form of skin cancer, is the deadliest. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, if melanoma is recognized and treated early, it is almost always curable. One way to detect melanoma early is to be aware of moles and new growths on the skin.

Brown spots, growths and moles on the body are often harmless, but they may be indicative of skin cancer. Experts say that anyone who has more than 100 moles is at greater risk for melanoma than others. Being aware of any changes to the skin is key to early detection.

Two important strategies for detecting skin cancer are called the “ugly duckling” and ABCDE.

Ugly Duckling This concept was introduced in 1998 and relates to the observation that nevi, or moles, on the body tend to look like one another – much like all the ducklings in a flock will resemble one another.

However, a mole that is unlike the other, or an “ugly duckling,” may indicate the presence of melanoma. An outlier, or a mole that doesn’t fit an individual’s usual pattern, should raise a red flag. The outlier may be darker than surrounding moles or it may be smaller.

ABCDE The ugly duckling sign is often used with another diagnostic tool called ABCDE. This is an acronym for the detection steps: asymmetry, border, color, diameter and evolving. ♦♦ Asymmetry: If an imaginary line is drawn through the middle of the mole and the two halves of the mole do not match up, this could be a warning sign.

Normal spots tend to be symmetrical. ♦♦ Border: The borders of early melanoma tend to be jagged or notched, while

Being aware of any changes to the skin is key to early detection. regular moles have even borders. ♦♦ Color: A mole with multiple colors might be melanoma. ♦♦ Diameter: Melanomas tend to be larger than the diameter of a pencil eraser.

Large spots should be investigated. ♦♦ Evolving: If a mole starts to change all of

a sudden by growing or changing color, or even if it simply feels different, see a doctor.

“When in doubt, check it out” can be applied to detecting skin cancer. It is better to be safe than sorry, especially when considering that early detection can save lives.

Healthy living for seniors – TreVista Antioch AMY SCHRADER

H

ome is not only where the heart is, but it

independent life.

Many seniors are turning to assisted-living communities to provide them with various levels of care and an array of activities and social events that help them maintain their health and live life to the fullest.

Some even experience a second lease on life, including Antioch resident Essie Brooks, who lives in TreVista Antioch, an assisted-living and memory-care community.

“Since moving here, I’ve become more social and get out and do so much more than I ever have,” said 79-year-old Brooks. “I never thought this would happen to me. Living here has brought out a different side of me that has led to so much happiness, and everyday is a good day here.”

According to Amanda Stewart, TreVista Antioch seniorliving consultant, Brooks’ transformation is not unique for residents. Many of the community’s residents find themselves enjoying life in ways they never expected.

“At TreVista, we believe people should go on living the life they want to live for as long as possible, which means continuing to be engaged in the world around them and with people of all ages,” said Stewart. “Our activity program helps each person make the most of every day and to experience life to the fullest. Our residents do many things that are not typical for those in other senior communities, including flying in a WWII bi-plane, making pots at a local ceramic shop, attending a local baseball game, volunteering in a grade-school classroom or working out in a local gym.”

TreVista Antioch’s resident-centric approach is a vision MEDAL LD AWARD

Men who want to look their youthful best can consider the following tips: ♦♦ Cover gray hairs. Men who aren’t ready to go gray but are anyway can find products designed specifically for men who want to conceal gray hairs. Avoid dyes that might color all hair, including those that are not gray, opting instead for a product that tints gray hairs without affecting hairs that still boast their natural colors. ♦♦ Maintain your beard. The beard boom continues, but men who want to look sharp and well-groomed should make an effort to trim wild facial hairs. Beard combs are designed to minimize hair damage and can help to smooth the hairs that appear unkempt. Some barbers even specialize in grooming beards, which can be helpful for men who are short on time or those with especially long beards that could use a little love and attention. ♦♦ Protect your face. Skin dries with age,

but men can take steps to protect their skin and keep it glowing as they grow older.

When spending time outdoors, always wear sunscreen with a minimum SPF of 30 and ideally one that includes moisturizer as well. Exposure to the sun without adequate protection can lead to fine lines and wrinkles while increasing the risk for skin cancer.

Night creams that contain retinol can help smooth wrinkles and give skin a more eventoned look. Prescription night creams tend to be considerably more potent than over-thecounter alternatives. ♦♦ Reduce stress. Stress produces a host of negative side effects, some of which can indirectly affect appearance. Some people dealing with stress end up suffering from insomnia, which can contribute to bags under the eyes. Stress also can adversely affect hydration of the skin, contributing to dry skin. Stress also can contribute to hormonal imbalances that lead to skin conditions such as acne, psoriasis and eczema. If stress is a problem, make a concerted effort to reduce it, even working with a physician to reduce stress when necessary.

There are many simple ways for men to address their appearance so they look and feel better.

Routinely update your cosmetics

I

t’s not uncommon for people to keep beauty products long after these items are past their prime without realizing they have shelf lives.

According to Jessica Wu, MD, an assistant clinical professor of dermatology at the University of Southern California, most beauty products are designed to stay fresh and stable for a limited time. Failure to routinely update makeup collections can result in products not working to their potential and even threatening health as bacteria can hide in containers and cause infections.

The best way to avoid any issues is to regularly go through cosmetic products, discarding old merchandise and buying new items when necessary. This can be done every few months or at the start of the new year. The following is a listing of the shelf life of many popular items and when to replace them. ♦♦ Unopened products: If you have some cosmetic products that haven’t yet been opened, they might remain stable for a couple of years at room temperature, according to chemists at Cosmetech Laboratories in New Jersey. Air can cause formulas to oxidize, and germs can be transferred to products when they are touched. ♦♦ Eye products: Mascara and eyeliners make contact with the eye, an area of the body that is sensitive and vulnerable to infec-

tion. These items should be discarded every three to six months to prevent bacteria formation. As they are often sharpened, eyeliner pencils have longer shelf lives than mascaras. ♦♦ Foundation: Liquid foundations last around a year. Storing them in a cool, dark place will help them last even longer. After a year, the foundation could separate and its consistency may change. When applying foundation, avoid using your fingers, which can cause bacteria to grow more quickly. ♦♦ Body brushes and loofah sponges: Acne and infections on the body may be a result of products and beauty items that are kept in the shower.

Constantly being wet and in a warm, dark place makes them the perfect breeding grounds for bacteria.

Discard these items every few months, and make sure they’re washed out and allowed to dry completely after each use. ♦♦Lip gloss and lipstick: People run the risk of mouth sores by using old lipsticks and lip glosses. Bacteria can easily be transferred from the mouth to these items. Generally speaking, it’s a good idea to discard lip products between six months to a year after purchase. What’s more, color changes can occur, and the products’ quality may begin to degrade.

If makeup and other cosmetic products have been sitting around for a while, it’s likely time to buy a new collection to maintain safety and function.

Kick-start from page 3B The only thing you won’t find during classes is sparring or combative fighting.

“Members get all of the incredible physical, emotional and psychological benefits of kickboxing without having to fight or get hit in the face,” said Kann.

The results are revolutionary.

According to Johnson, members report burning over 800 calories per each one-hour class. One member even reported burning 1,092 calories in a recent class.

“If you come to class two to three times per week, you will see changes, no doubt about it,” said Kann. “You will have a drop in body fat, increase muscle, get

definition and toning and will definitely build endurance.”

Antioch resident Meschelle Cockerham, who has been a member since I Love Kickboxing opened, has experienced results that go beyond the pounds and inches she has lost.

“I do things I never thought I could do,” said Cockerham, who attends classes three days a week. “It’s taken my health journey to a whole new level and has made me feel more confident, energetic and like I can take on anything.”

I Love Kickboxing is located at 5561 Lone Tree Way in Brentwood. For more information, visit www.ilovekickboxing. com or call 925-240-1996.

Seniors from page 5B One of the things residents of TreVista Antioch enjoy most about the community is the beautiful 10-acre campus, which is currently being renovated to include new outdoor gathering spaces and a spectacular waterfall feature.

“It is so beautiful here,” said Brooks, who also enjoys the cozy community rooms with fireplaces and the beautiful dining room that opens to a private patio and hillside waterfall.

Whether TreVista Antioch residents are enjoying a holiday party, birthday celebration, yoga class, spa day or a trip to a golf course, local concert or art show, they are given endless choices to live life to the fullest and
