Body Building for What’s to Come

In this House of Free Will members-only workshop Dr. Barre Lando, creator of Alfa Vedic, who considers body building one of his favourite subjects, is going to be teaching the art of body building for these times. Even if it’s not the end of the world, you will never regret investing in the greatest asset of having a reliable frame, strength, flexibility, and endurance capacity.

Barre will talk about:

• The two training approaches, Stability/Strength vs Mobility/Flexibility, and the importance of balancing the two
• Training for different phases of life, yearly cycles for athletes
• How external fitness can transition into internal energy movement (qi gong) to increase outward performance, while improving health and broadening perception
• How wave form mechanics operate in body building
• Why he emphasizes the importance of a strong body to deal with what lies ahead for all of us in the coming years

In this totally interactive workshop I’m also going to ask about how body building may be different for men and women, and about some basics on best practices for breathing, repetitions, pushing an edge, and avoiding injury.

Barre’s Bio:

As founder and formulator for Alfa Vedic, Dr. Barre traveled an eclectic path through athletics and academics in becoming a Physician, Kinesiologist-Functional Movement Specialist & Master Gardener.

MEDICAL SPECIALIZATION(S): Biological Terrain Medicine, Clinical Kinesiology, Japanese Meridian Therapy, Endobiogenics, Functional Movement Specialist, Craniopathy, Visceral Manipulation & Chiropractic Medicine.

AVOCATION: As a long-time surfer, Dr. Barre has chased waves from Fiji to the Hawaiian Islands, but training in the internal martial arts, beekeeping, Russellian Science and medicinal herb farming are his present passion. Dr. Lando is noted amongst his peers for his innovative clinical strategies, and has made himself available over the years for both consulting and professional training to other health professionals.

The integration of wave-form mechanics, and largely suppressed aspects of biophysics and microbiology are now his primary focus in creating a genuine ‘science-based’ system of functional medicine, thus avoiding the inherent limitations of present ‘theory-based’ conventions within institutionalized systems.

Although retired from clinical practice, ‘difficult cases’ have always comprised the bulk of Dr. Barre’s international client base, and the custom compounding of nutrients, homeopathics, and herbs became a necessity in meeting their needs. This experience would become the roots of the present line of advanced macro-nutrient herbal formulas that have been made available to the general public under the trade name of Alfa Vedic. Alfa Vedic and AV Botanical Gardens are the natural culmination, and next evolution, of Dr. Barre’s work.
